Propose one (1) strategy that criminal investigators should take in order to conduct an efficient follow-up investigation
Preliminary investigations do not necessarily yield enough information to prosecute a criminal case. Despite a thorough preliminary investigation, many cases require a follow up investigation. Use your textbook, the Internet, and / or Strayer Library to research articles on crime scene investigation.
Write a three to four (3-4) page paper in which you:
Assemble a set of guidelines on conducting preliminary investigation for a criminal case.
Propose one (1) strategy that criminal investigators should take in order to conduct an efficient follow-up investigation. Provide a rationale to support your response.
Select two major crimes (e.g. sudden deaths, sex related crimes) and compare and contrast the key differences in reporting the two major crimes that you selected.
Determine the three (3) most important characteristics of an effective criminal investigator and discuss the importance of each characteristic you determined.
Support or critique the argument that the criminal investigation process should maintain the balance regarding freedom of information through media outlets and privacy rights of alleged perpetrators of crime. Provide a rationale to support your response.
Use at least two (2) quality academic resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar type Websites do not qualify as academic resources
identify the red flags that might cause concern and/or indicate significant depression.
Although there has recently been a deluge of media highlighting various prescription drugs for treatment of depression and anxiety, there remains a lack of understanding about mental health, in general. Further, stigma often is attached to seeking professional help for mental health issues.
Depression is a disorder that people often do not realize they are experiencing. The symptoms of depression can vary from person to person (i.e., weight gain vs. weight loss, loss of sleep vs. increased sleep), which can also make it difficult to diagnose. Many people experience times of sadness, including waking up feeling down for no apparent reason. These feelings are not unusual and come with the ups and downs of life.
As a professional, understanding the criteria for depression and comorbid diseases is part of a comprehensive assessment. Depression and anxiety can precede other mental health and physical issues and can also be a result of those issues. Clarifying the progression of the presenting problem will enable you to establish a well-informed treatment plan and intervention.
For this Discussion, review the course-specific case study for Miranda in this weeks resources. As you review and analyze this case, remind yourself of the need for a comprehensive assessment that does not focus on the perceived deficits. You will read and then consider the responses of the professionals involved in the case. While reviewing their varied responses, consider their possible biases and how they have chosen to focus on the presenting problem and the clients situation.
· Post the depression scale you located, summarize how it is used, and describe the target population.
· Describe how you might apply this assessment to the course-specific case study of Miranda and include any additional questions you would ask Miranda to assess her level of depression.
· Then, identify the red flags that might cause concern and/or indicate significant depression.
· Finally, identify a scale that can be used to assess risk for suicide.

What is the role of health care reform in shifting the focus from a disease-oriented health care system toward one of wellness and prevention, and how does nursing fit into this shift?
What is the role of health care reform in shifting the focus from a disease-oriented health care system toward one of wellness and prevention, and how does nursing fit into this shift?
Trying to find a way to defray health care costs, it was decided that it is much less expensive to prevent disease than to attempt to fix it after an illness occurs. The cost is much less, not only in terms of money, but in terms of human suffering. People live in communities, not health care systems. Finding ways to reach people so they live a healthy life that supports wellness remains a challenge. Cultural variation and beliefs have a profound impact. You will have to reach deeply into your past course of Health Promotion to answer this question. How do we need to live in order to stay well? This is a very important question in relation to the current changes in relation to healthcare. Please think beyond diet, exercise and taking meds. They are important too, but true health promotion goes far beyond that limited focus
