SPRINGHILL GROUP: Cost and Coverage of Home Care
This document discusses the cost and coverage of home care through nursing homes. It notes that nursing home care can be very expensive, costing over $50,000 per year on average. While Medicare pays for short-term nursing home stays, Medicaid pays for most long-term nursing home care once individuals have exhausted their savings. The document provides tips for choosing a nursing home, such as discussing options with loved ones, speaking to healthcare professionals, and contacting the long-term care ombudsman. It emphasizes planning and preparing for potential long-term care needs as early as possible.
Livi intro
Many Americans struggle to adhere to complex medication schedules, resulting in over $290 billion annually in unnecessary costs. Our approach develops an automated home medication dispenser that can remotely manage and dispense up to 15 medications for 90 days each, notifying caregivers of missed doses. This aims to simplify medication adherence and management, reducing healthcare costs and improving patient outcomes.

Kokkidou school music education curricula
The document discusses issues around developing curricula for school music education. It notes that curriculum designers believe music education should examine music as an acoustic phenomenon, emphasize personal expression and creativity, and consider socio-cultural contexts. School music aims to develop knowledge about, for, and through music. When selecting curricular content, influences include general orientations and particular educational conditions, and content should not be predetermined. Effective content maximizes knowledge by minimizing what is taught. Current tendencies emphasize conscious listening, linking music with movement, acquiring theoretical knowledge, and using new technologies. Content provides a framework for teachers to work creatively within. An organized progression from simple to complex concepts and rejection of rigid structures are discussed.
Adult Manifesto
This document contains advice from Daniel Teng on various topics such as company culture, personal development, and success strategies. It lists the "Top 10 Odd-e Never-Does" which are things an innovative company should avoid. It also presents concepts like "T-Shape Beats Fachidiot" which encourages learning different topics, and "Small Beats Big" which promotes focusing on small, actionable items instead of just thinking big. The document aims to share philosophies for thriving at fast-moving companies and in one's career.

Meteor is Coming
The Cretaceous was a period with a relatively warm climate, resulting in high eustatic sea levels and creating numerous shallow inland seas. These oceans and seas were populated with now-extinct marine reptiles, ammonites and rudists, while dinosaurs continued to dominate on land. At the same time, new groups of mammals and birds, as well as flowering plants, appeared. Until one day, a Meteor came, everything changed. After year 2000, along with the emergence of internet, the structure of human society change significantly. A lot of things which were hard to imagine became possible. This created huge impact on organizations and individuals. All in sudden, the way of innovation, the way of marketing and the way of doing business changed totally. Even the focus of doing business changed. As organizer and individual, in order to remain competent and relevant, we need to learn fast and adapt fast. The speed of responding to change became crucial survival strategy.

Kokkidou humour in western art music and in music1
This document discusses a study on how preschool children perceive humor in music. The study involved interviews with 25 preschool-aged children after they listened to 5 pieces of music, some of which contained humorous elements. Initially, the children did not laugh in response to the music. However, after receiving explanatory information about the humorous aspects, they were able to identify humor in the music, laugh, and discuss it. The findings suggest that while young children can appreciate humor in music, additional cognitive or contextual support is needed to aid their understanding and perception of musical humor.
ISNIPER - How To Make The Change When Change Is Hard
If you give kids broccoli and tell them it is good for their health. Most likely, you will still get a no. The reason is quite simple, little kids don't care about being healthy. This broccoli principles applies to agile adoption as well. Simply telling and pushing new ideas and practices don't help very much because It is about changing people's mindset and way of thinking. Push and enforcement will always get resistance. The more push we have, the more resistance we will have as coach or change agent. To make it even worse, each individual, team and organization are so different, the culture is different, the business situation is different, the technology is different. Those are perfect excuses for not to change. One key factor for successful and sustainable adoption is to lit the desire to learn and improve, from individual, to team, to organization level. Rather than being pushed a lot of ideas, team will come for help and guidance, to pull idea from coach then apply in their context.

Social Media Strategy & Measurement in the Bedsider Program
Social media defies measurement. I am ready to reject the question of “how do you measure it?” Because if you can see it doesn’t mean it’s successful and if you can’t it doesn’t mean it’s not working (especially if you apply other people’s measures).
You have to find your own value and find the measurement that has meaning to you and your work. Don’t stop too long at the measurement question; keep moving forward and don’t define success too narrowly. Work hardest on defining your goals.

2009-10 Our National Struggle for Health Care Reform in America
This document discusses the struggle for health care reform in America by comparing the health care system to the education system. It notes that access to education is considered a right, universal, and portable, unlike health care. The document outlines issues with the current health care system such as rising costs, lack of universal coverage, and poor health outcomes compared to other countries. It also discusses eight major tension points in achieving national health care reform, such as requiring insurance coverage for all, subsidies for low-income individuals, transitioning payment models to value-based care, and the possibility of a public insurance option.
Business case for breastfeeding
- 60% of women work outside the home, with mothers being the fastest growing segment of the workforce. Supporting breastfeeding in the workplace provides health and economic benefits.
- Breastfeeding lowers health risks for babies and mothers. It also reduces absenteeism and healthcare costs for employers. Establishing a basic lactation support program with a private room and flexible scheduling can support breastfeeding employees.
- Community resources like lactation consultants can help companies establish effective lactation support programs that benefit both employees and employers' bottom lines.

Fertility Clinic
The Together Fertility Clinic is dedicated to social justice and child welfare. Their policies aim to make assisted reproductive technologies accessible and ensure any resulting children are cared for. Gamete donors are compensated for their time and medical risks, and donor anonymity is not offered to allow potential children access to biological family medical histories if desired. While prenatal testing is provided, clients are not pressured on termination decisions and connect with disability rights groups for support. Designer babies are rejected in favor of medical selection only to promote equality.
Preventative Prenatal Care
This document proposes a policy to expand preventative prenatal care coverage in the United States. It finds that the U.S. has high rates of infant and pregnancy-related mortality compared to other developed nations. This is partly due to many women not receiving adequate prenatal care due to costs. The document evaluates three potential policy options and recommends expanding coverage of preventative prenatal care services to include no cost-sharing for patients. This option would encourage earlier and more frequent prenatal care, reducing mortality rates and healthcare costs over the long run.

Maternity Personalised Care 2015
This document discusses issues with the UK maternity system, including lack of choice for women, variations in costs and outcomes, and low staff morale. It presents evidence that midwife-led continuity of care models provide better and more cost-effective outcomes than traditional hospital-based systems. However, only a small percentage of women currently experience midwifery-led care or choice in place of birth. The document uses East Lancashire as a case study of a successful integrated midwifery model providing high rates of normal birth and continuity of care. It urges providers to evaluate their own systems and consider how to better support women's choices and preferences for birth.

HCA 415 Week 3 Discussion ( Essential Services Personal Interview ) - A Graded - Quality Work - 100% Original - Plagiarism Free
I already have answer for the discussion but I need to continue with the same interview I had for the discussion and do the assignment. It can be 2-3 pages instead of 4. Can you submit it by tomarrow? It has to be based on the interview provided in discussion. Assignment instructions are also stated below.
Below is the Discussion
Essential Services Personal Interview
Select a population (maternal, infant, child, adolescent, young adults, older adults, elderly) and research the most critical health issues affecting this population.
Describe the most critical health issues affecting your selected population.
Describe at least three public health/community services that exist in your own community to address these issues.
Contact one of these services’ directors (or representative) and inquire about the agency’s effectiveness by asking these questions:
Do you feel your organization has made a difference?
What are your main barriers and how are the barriers to services being addressed?
What are the ethical considerations of your services and how are they addressed?
How is your organization funded?
What concerns are still unmet in your opinion? Are these areas that will be addressed in the future?
What role does your organization play in the overall public health arena?
Present a brief overview of the organization, including its mission and goals/objectives, and then post your interview notes in the discussion forum
Your original post must contain at least one additional scholarly source in addition to the textbook.
ANSWER 1
The issue that I chose for my critical health issue is family planning and teenage pregnancies. For years, it seemed that everywhere I turned there were young teenage girls that were pregnant surrounding me. Currently, “the U.S. still has a teen birthrate of 31.2 per 1,000 teens, nearly one-and-a-half times the rate in the United Kingdom, which has one of the highest rates in Western Europe (Vestal, 2015, para. 1). I believe that prevention programs are the best method to reduce the high teenage pregnancy rates. The World Health Organization stated that, “family planning is a method for helping people to have the desired number of children and for spacing births” (as cited in Friis, et al., 2013, 5.2, para. 2). Healthy People 2020 set their goal for family planning to improve the spacing and planning of pregnancy, but also to prevent unwanted pregnancies (Friis, et al., 2013).

Reduce Your Health Insurance Costs
The document discusses issues with the current healthcare system such as overutilization of emergency rooms, the high and rising costs of healthcare, untreated stress, and lack of consumerism in healthcare choices. It proposes telemedicine and a first alternative resource as low-cost solutions, noting that average physician response time through telemedicine would be under 90 seconds. Telemedicine could provide 24/7 access to doctors via phone/video appointments, prescription refills, and integration with electronic health records and personal health tools to help treat common conditions and refer to specialists when needed.

This document discusses gender differences in leadership styles and their relevance to the military. It notes that research has found men and women tend to lead in different ways, with women's styles focusing more on vision, collaboration, communication and empowering subordinates. These styles align with modern leadership theories emphasizing qualities often associated with female leaders. While the military has traditionally emphasized strict command, future challenges will require key leadership skills like vision and building consensus. As such, many female leadership styles could effectively complement military leadership by incorporating both sides of thinking and flexible structures.
