Information Technology in Public Health Public health surveillance and prevention efforts in the U.S. reflect the involvement of numerous health care providers and organizations. Government agencies such as the CDC often function as a hub for the collection, coordination, and communication of public health-related data. Common applications of public health IT to promote and improve the health of populations include (but are not limited to) biosurveillance, disease registries, and immunization tracking. The timely and appropriate implementation of these applications can have a significant impact on the ability of providers to deliver health care to the their patients, which, in turn, can have a profound effect on a community's overall state of health and wellness. Consider the dire impact a SARS outbreak might have, for example, if patient diagnoses were not reported and shared regionally, nationally, and internationally. Prepare for this Application as follows: Conduct a literature review of a specific application of health information technology in public health and locate an example in which the application was used to address a public health-related concern. (You might wish to begin by researching a particular surveillance program, disease outbreak, disease registry, prevention program, or other public health-related event, and then identify the technology involved in this activity.) Find out how this application has impacted the public's health. Learn also about any ways in which health care providers and organizations were involved in the use of this information technology. Then write a 2- to 3-page paper that addresses the following: Describe the specific application you selected and the ways in which it addresses a public health-related concern. Summarize the potential benefits to the public, as well as any possible drawbacks, arising from the use of this application. Explain the role of hospitals and other health care organizations in contributing to or making use of this public health-related IT application. Discuss other implications of this application for health care providers and organizations. How has it impacted (or might it impact) clinical or administrative practices in hospitals or other health care institutions? Provide a rationale for your response. .

Information Technology and Decision Making Patient safety and care is reliant upon the quality of nurses' daily decision making. Nurses are constantly tending to the needs of multiple patients by providing health care information, administering drug treatments, managing patient family concerns, as well as informing other nurses and staff on the patient's condition. Review your reading from this week and then address the following: • Explain how well your current work setting supports you and your colleagues in decision making. • Share your thoughts on two ways that electronic or computerized information technology could help you and your nursing colleagues improve decision making in your work setting. You can include decision support applications or not, as you wish. Support your ideas or those of others with references from the professional nursing literature. Cite the references used in APA style format. .

Individuals use social movements when they feel a social institution is unjust. Current theoretical perspectives on social movements provide an awareness of the nature of social movements and their role in defining human behavior. In terms of human services, it is important to be able to recognize and assess the costs and benefits to individuals who participate in social movement activities (for example, healthcare reform, charity organizations, and disability movements) as well as the effects of social movements on human behavior. Tasks: Using the vignette provided in this module, your textbook, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet, conduct research to support your response. In a 3- to 4-page essay, address the following: Provide a summary of the vignette's key points as related to the social movements it represents. Identify and describe the concepts from this module that can be applied to the vignette to describe human behavior (i.e., cultural framing). Identify and discuss the effects of the identified social movement on the individual described in the vignette. Provide a summary of service methods or options that could be used to support this person. You can use examples you have identified in your own community as well. Submission Details: By Wednesday, October 14, 2015 , prepare a 3- to 4-page essay. Your response should rely upon at least three sources from professional literature. This may include the Argosy University online library resources, relevant textbooks, peer-reviewed journal articles, and websites created by professional organizations, agencies, or institutions (.edu, .org, or .gov). Write in a clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrate ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources (i.e., APA format); and use accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation. .

Information is provided for you below that will help you construct an answer for your interpretation of the figures on page 2-3. Background: Dendrobates pumilo is a poison dart frog with a distributional range from Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. The bright colors from the skin of these frogs are considered to be a warning sign of toxicity to predators. Although D. pumilo is one species, there are 10 color polymorphic populations within this range. The warning signs as displayed on D. pumilo are favored by natural selection in terms of predator avoidance. Purpose of the study (what scientists wanted to understand): 1) How visual conspicuousness and toxicity is correlated. 2) Differences between visual backgrounds and predator visual systems on detection of D. pumilo . Glossary: Dorsal : upper side or back Ventral : underside 1 Visual background : Poison dart frogs live on different natural substrates; live dead plant parts, so this would bring about different visual backgrounds. Visual systems : In this study they are referring to how predators “view” D. pumilo. Remember, not all predators will see their prey the same way. Color polymorphisms : alternative phenotypes, and in this case alternative phenotypes of frog skin color. NAME: ______________________ Figure 1. Sampled populations of Dendrobates pumilio in the Bocas del Toro Archipelago, Panama. From Isla Bastimentos, two D. pumilio color morphs were collected (green and orange), as well as four individuals of the closely related but nontoxic control species Allobates talamancae .

Different letters above the bars indicate statistically significant differences; numbers are population numbers referred to in C and in subsequent figures. Allobates talamancae (a closely related Dendrobatid frog) and saline solution served as toxicity measure controls. B , Gray bars indicate the overall brightness of dorsal coloration (total reflectance flux, S R , in arbitrary units) for the 11 frog taxa. C , The inset gives the correlation between toxicity and dorsal brightness for the 10 D. pumilio populations. Numbers refer to the population labels in A . Bio 112 Olave Spring 2016 3 NAME: ______________________ Figure 3. Illustration of the perceptual differences between potential predator taxa in species-specific color space. Plots show the estimated brightness and color contrast generated by the dorsal coloration of individuals from three Dendrobates pumilio populations (Solarte [orange], Aguacate [blue], and Pastores [green]), viewed against a Heliconia background, in the visual systems of birds, crabs, and diurnal snakes.
