Describe how interdisciplinary relationships affect your organization and the patients and families that use your health care organization.
Collaboration among health care professionals is the key to positive patient outcomes. Each member of the health care team has been trained with specific knowledge and skills, which allow them to do what they do best. Working together as a team brings specific strengths of each discipline to focus on the care of the patient and supplements any weaknesses of other teammates. Effective interdisciplinary relationships decrease costs and improve patient satisfaction while improving overall health care worker satisfaction. Research different health care interdisciplinary relationships (such as radiology, working with the emergency room, or working in a pharmaceutical company) that the marketing department needs to collaborate with the development department. Write a 1,400- to 1,750-word paper that summarizes your findings. Include ways to avoid and resolve conflict, how to work as a team and collaborate with other departments, and ways to make the process better. You may also include a personal experience with an interdisciplinary relationship and describe if it worked well or if there was a breakdown. Describe how interdisciplinary relationships affect your organization and the patients and families that use your health care organization. Format your assignment according to APA guidelines.
Should Ellen recommend that Tom put the maximum in his medical flexible spending account, and if so, why?
Ellen’s tax client is employed at a large company that offers medical flexible spending accounts to its employees. Tom must decide at the beginning of the year whether he wants to put as much as $2,550 of his salary into the medical spending account. He expects that he will have to pay for at least $8,000 of medical expenses for his family during the year since his wife is seeing a psychiatrist every week and his daughter and son are both having their teeth straightened. Tom does not itemize deductions. Should Ellen recommend that Tom put the maximum in his medical flexible spending account, and if so, why?

How do King’s words relate to the film A Raisin in the Sun
Journal Entry Requirements: Compose an entry of 350-500 words Organize your ideas into structured paragraphs (at least 3) Provide sufficient and relevant supporting details, examples and/or evidence Use proper spelling and grammar Revise and proofread your entry before submission Submit entry online before the start of class instructions In 1963 Martin Luther King Jr famously said, in his “I have a Dream Speech” that: “When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men “;yes, black men as well as white men” would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked ‘insufficient funds.’” How do King’s words relate to the film A Raisin in the Sun (which is the 1961 film adaptation of Lorraine Hansberry’s play by the same name)? What connections to do you see between King’s speech (particularly the section quoted above) and the film?
What is the probability of Rebecca being diagnosed with gestational diabetes if her glucose level is measured
Assessment Description 1. A patient is classified as having gestational diabetes if their glucose level is above 140 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dl) one hour after a sugary drink is ingested. Rebecca’s doctor is concerned that she may suffer from gestational diabetes. There is variation both in the actual glucose level and in the blood test that measures the level. Rebecca’s measured glucose level one hour after ingesting the sugary drink varies according to the Normal distribution with μ= 140+X mg/dl and σ = X+1 mg/dl, where X is the last digit of your GCU student ID number. What is the probability of Rebecca being diagnosed with gestational diabetes if her glucose level is measured: Once? X+1 times, where X is the last digit of your student ID? X+4 times, where X is the last digit of your student ID? Comment on the relationship between the probabilities observed in (a), (b), and (c). Explain, using concepts from lecture why this occurs and what it means in context. 2. Suppose next that we have even less knowledge of our patient, and we are only given the accuracy of the blood test and prevalence of the disease in our population. We are told that the blood test is 9X percent reliable, gestational diabetes affects X+1 percent of the population in our patient’s age group, and that our test has a false positive rate of X+4 percent. Compute the following quantities based on this new information: If 100,000 people take the blood test, how many people that test positive will actually have gestational diabetes? What is the probability of having the disease given that you test positive? If 100,000 people take the blood test, how many people that test negative despite actually having gestational diabetes? What is the probability of having the disease given that you tested negative? Comment on what you observe in the above computations. How does the prevalence of the disease affect whether the test can be trusted? 3. As we have seen in class, hypothesis testing and confidence intervals are the most common inferential tools used in statistics. Imagine that you have been tasked with designing an experiment to determine reliably if a patient should be diagnosed with diabetes based on their blood test results. Create a short outline of your experiment, including all of the following: A detailed discussion of your experimental design. How is randomization used in your sampling or assignment strategy? The type of inferential test utilized in your experiment. A formal statement of the null and alternative hypothesis for your test. A confidence interval for estimating the parameter in your test. An interpretation of your p-value and confidence interval, including what they mean in context of your experimental design
discuss the severity of the poison and the effectiveness of the antidote.
Project Demonstration of Understanding of Unit III Concepts The topics covered in Unit III examine the effects that drugs can have on multiple body systems. These effects can happen whether one uses macronutrients, minerals, herbals, poisons, additive drugs, antibacterial, or antiviral drugs. Each class possess a unique mechanism of action intended achieve a desired response or produce an undesirable outcome. HTH 1305, Pharmacology 3 This project will examine your understanding of the key concepts that are discussed in Chapters 9-12. In the form of a PowerPoint Presentation or Research Paper using correct APA format, using your textbook, as well as resources from the CSU Online Library, address the following questions related to two agents from the classes listed above. 1. Provide a background/introduction of the agents. 2. Discuss the role of the agents in medicine. With poisons, discuss the severity of the poison and the effectiveness of the antidote. With drugs of abuse discuss the severity of the abuse potential and methods for addressing abuse. 3. What is (are) the intended use, intended response, or impact on the applicable body systems? 4. Briefly discuss how the use of poisons and addictive drugs differ from the use of antibacterial and antiviral agents. 5. Provide a conclusion that provides a take home message about each class. If you choose the PowerPoint Presentation option: Your presentation should be approximately 15 slides in length (not counting the title and reference pages.) Also, include presenter notes and appropriate visuals. If you choose the Research Paper option: Your paper should be four-five pages in length (not including the title and reference page.)
explain strategies for educating patients on the sexually transmitted infection.
Discussion: Sexually Transmitted Infections The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that there are 19 million new cases of sexually transmitted infections every year in the United States (CDC, 2010b). STIs may present serious health implications for infected patients—especially for those who are unaware of their health condition. Studies show that women are not only at greater risk of contracting these infections, but they also tend to have more severe health problems resulting from infections than men (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2009b). As an advanced practice nurse, you must educate female patients and emphasize the importance of prevention and STI testing for all women regardless of marital status, race, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status. For this Discussion, consider STI education strategies for the three patients in the following case studies: Case Study 1: A 19-year-old Asian American female comes into the clinic for a well-woman checkup. She states that about three weeks ago she had a non-tender sore on her labia that resolved without treatment. Her gynecologic exam is normal but she has maculopapular lesions on her trunk, neck, palms, and soles of her feet. The remainder of her exam was unremarkable. Case Study 2: A 31-year-old African American female is concerned about a white vaginal discharge. She has self-treated in the past with over-the-counter vaginal creams with some success. She has had no relief thus far for this episode. Case Study 3: A 21-year-old nulligravida comes to see you concerned about vague lower abdominal pain for two days associated with a yellowish, nonodorous, vaginal discharge. Past history reveals regular menstrual periods and no previous surgeries or significant medical problems. Her last menstrual period was normal and ended two days ago. She had a similar episode about eight months ago for which she did not seek care because of lack of health insurance. She is currently sexually active with one partner and has had two partners in the past year. She is not using any type of contraception. On physical exam you note a temperature of 38º C, a regular pulse of 100, and a BP of 110/65. Her abdomen is diffusely tender in both lower quadrants. Pelvic exam reveals a yellowish cervical discharge with cervical motion tenderness and a tender fullness in both adnexa. To prepare: Review Chapter 20 of the Schuiling and Likis text and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention article in this week’s Learning Resources. Review and select one of the three provided case studies. Reflect on the patient information. Consider a differential diagnosis for the patient in the case study you selected. Think about the most likely diagnosis for the patient. Think about a treatment and management plan for the patient. Be sure to consider appropriate dosages for any recommended pharmacologic and/or nonpharmacologic treatments. Consider strategies for educating patients on the treatment and management of the sexually transmitted infection you identified as your primary diagnosis. By Day 3 Post an explanation of the differential diagnosis for the patient in the case study you selected. Provide a minimum of three possible diagnoses, and list them from highest priority to lowest priority. Explain which is the most likely diagnosis for the patient and why. Then, explain a treatment and management plan for the patient, including appropriate dosages for any recommended treatments. Finally, explain strategies for educating patients on the sexually transmitted infection.

create a new six-month operations budget for the clinic.
Scenario: One year ago, Metropolitan Memorial expanded its operations into a rural community located approximately a hundred miles from its main facility. The clinic offers a wide array of outpatient services. As the Senior Accountant, you are reviewing the clinic’s operating budget from the previous year. You have been asked by the hospital’s chief administrator to create a new six-month operations budget for the clinic. Instructions: Using an Excel spreadsheet, create a new six-month budget for the clinic that includes the following revenue and expense projections: -The clinic’s revenue is projected to grow by approximately 3% as a result of a new managed care contract. -The cost of expenses is expected to increase to 1.5%. -The clinic will also be adding a new roof to the facility at a projected cost of $50,000. Then prepare a memo for the chief administrator. The memo should include a review of the previous year’s budget, an analysis of the upcoming changes (figures above), and a discussion about the impacts that these changes will have on the budget for the upcoming year.
