/0 Comments/in /by

Policies serve a number of purposes in health care, and they can have wide-ranging effect on what care can be offered and how it is carried out. In this discussion you will research health policies and analyze their influence on the way and degree to which populations have access to health care.

In your initial post, address the following. Be sure to follow the requirements for initial postings found in the Faculty Expectations Message (FEM). Identify a minimum of two health care policies that have an influence on access to services. Examples of Web sites to use include the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, The Joint Commission, et cetera.

For each health care policy you identified, complete the following: Explain how the policy influences the way in which care is accessed. Explain how the policy influences the amount of access that is available. Suggest one way in which the policy could be adjusted to improve access.

Tracks (Novel) by Louise Erdrich

 

Paper details:

Make an argument examining how two or more of the characters in Tracks wield power in their lives. How do race/ethnicity, class, gender, and social/historical/cultural contexts shape the ways they rebel against (or conform to) assigned roles? To what extent do these characters have agency (the ability to act or to do; power/control; role of subject rather than object)? How do they move from object to subject? Do they? How is their ability to do so constrained by specific contexts, and what are some of the effects of these constraints? Consider their experiences in the context of both European (white) culture and Native American culture

Women author’s in the 17th and 18th centuries Narrowed topic: The reality in women authors lives affected their writing

/0 Comments/in /by

Description Thesis: Even though women authors in the 17th and 18th centuries had to face many obstacles, they pushed forward and put their pens to paper. A five-page (typed double-spaced) comprehensive research paper on one of the list of topic choices. Topic choices are listed under “Assignments” on Canvas. By the end of the fifth week, submit a brief typed paragraph stating your topic, your thesis (position) statement, and the authors and/or works that you might include in your bibliography. The research paper must be original to this course (not written for another course or previously submitted), and it must deal specifically with some aspect of women’s literature that this course covers. This is not to be a book report or an author biography.

Social Behavior is Goal Oriented – Research Paper O

/0 Comments/in /by

In the capstone course, you will create a research proposal. To assist you in the creation of that proposal, you have decided on a research topic and begun collecting empirical studies to support the need for research. Your topic must relate to a basic social psychological principle; however it can fall into one of the applied subfields (forensic psychology, psychology of religion, industrial organization, health psychology, etc.). For this assignment you will begin analyzing the current research around your chosen topic.

Using the empirical articles you have collected thus far, compare the current research for your chosen topic, in 1,250-1,500 words. The following information will assist in the analysis of the literature: 1. Introduction: This section should include your research question with a brief explanation of why the research is needed.

2. Compare and analyze the literature in the articles collected. 3. Compare the limitations of the studies you have collected. 4. A conclusion that includes how your research will add to the current field of research. Prepare a document that includes your research question(s), including how your research will add to the current research in your chosen field (from your Topic 3 assignment). Your document will include five scholarly, peer reviewed, empirical studies from the past 5 to 7 years. This section should include APA formatted citations for each article, including permalink or doi number. Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center. An abstract is not required.

The Institution of Lynching

/0 Comments/in /by

In 500-1,000 words, discuss why increased numbers of African Americans were lynched. What is the difference between lynching and murder? How were lynchings typically documented? How did the press cover lynchings? Ida B. Wells’ pamphlet LYNCH LAW IN GEORGIA used the reporting of Atlanta newspapers which covered a series of lynchings in Georgia. Read the pamphlet: Lynch Law in Georgia by Ida B. Wells: text on website (Links to an external site.) (http://hierographics.tripod.com/IdaBWells-Barnett/LynchLawinGeorgia.html) (Links to an external site.) or downloadable PDF of original text as a pamphlet (Links to an external site.). (https://ia600502.us.archive.org/30/items/lynchlawingeorgi00well/lynchlawingeorgi00well.pdf) When did the lynching of Sam Wilkes occur? How long did it take for Ida Wells and her Chicago group to prepare this account for the press? What, reports the detective, was the response of whites in Newman when asked about Sam Wilkes’ motives for the murder? What does the detective say about claims that Sam Wilkes assaulted Mrs. Cranston? Who does the detective claim was complicit in the lynching of Wilkes? How does the detective’s accounts of the lynchings of Rev. Strickland and the shooting of the five African American men in Palmeto compare to the newspaper accounts given earlier in the pamphlet? How often were the victims of lynching the apparent subjects of mistaken identity? What seems to have been the purpose behind torturing the victims of lynching? Why were federal anti-lynching bills annually defeated in Congress?

Workflow Redesign

/0 Comments/in /by

Current-state workflow models and gap analyses often reveal workflow issues and inefficiencies. These issues and inefficiencies (gaps) help nurse informaticists determine possible directions for improvements and revisions. These possibilities help inform the creation of a future-state workflow, in which the gaps in the current-state workflow are addressed. In Part 3 of the Course Project, you will apply what you have learned about workflow throughout this course by redesigning the current-state workflow. Using the information obtained from your gap analysis and current-state workflow model, you will create a future-state workflow model that provides a solution to the workflow issues you have identified. Your future-state workflow model MUST be tied to meaningful use and, therefore, MUST involve either implementing a new electronic health record (EHR) or revising an existing EHR. To prepare for Part 3 of the Course Project: Review the results of your gap analysis and your Visio model of the current-state workflow (Part 2 of the Course Project). Reflect on the most significant issue revealed by your gap analysis and Visio workflow model. Identify possible EHR-related solutions to this workflow issue. Select one solution that relates to EHRs and meaningful use. Begin developing a new Visio workflow model that incorporates the solution you selected. This model does not need to be extremely complicated, but it must clearly show how your EHR solution fits into the workflow. Outline a use case that illustrates the details of each step in your future-state workflow in a real-world scenario. Consider the organizational changes that would be necessary to make the transition from the current-state to the future-state workflow. For example, how would organizational and departmental buy-in be obtained, and how would training and support for staff be provided? Examine possible implementation strategies for integrating your redesigned workflow into the current workflow. To complete Part 3 of the Course Project: Create a Visio model of the future-state workflow, clearly illustrating the solution you would implement to address the gaps in the current-state workflow. Then, in a 3- to 4-page paper, respond to the following: Explain the proposed solution you selected, how it addresses the major gap you identified in the current-state workflow, and how it is related to meaningful use. Create a detailed use case of a real-world scenario that shows the steps of the future-state workflow you developed. Outline the major steps and organizational changes that would be necessary to transition from the current-state to the future-state workflow. Explain one potential implementation strategy that would be useful for this project. Justify the strategy’s appropriateness for your workflow and practice setting. In a reference list, cite a minimum of three scholarly references (with APA citations) that you used to identify your solution, write your use case, and outline the organizational process for transitioning from the current to the future state.
