Assessing the needs of the service user:
Given the word count, please identify only two needs in this section of the service user although we acknowledge that some service users may have multiple or complex needs.
• Provide a definition of the concept of assessment in mental health nursing and show your understanding of what and how we assess, including risk.
• Consider our professional role and responsibilities in mental health assessment, and how service users might experience our services, within the wider legal and ethical context of care provision.
• Discuss how the service user you have identified was engaged in the assessment. Consideration should be given to biological, psychological, and social aspects that might have might contributed to their mental health problems and presenting needs.
• Examine how principles of recovery were used during the engagement and assessment of the service user.
• Discuss how interpersonal skills were used to help provide person-centred care for the service user, supported by the wide body of literature on communication in mental health nursing.
(Suggested: 1500 words)
Planning care for the service user:
• Define and show your understanding of the concept of care planning. Focus on how mental health nurses work with people in a way that values, respects and explores the ways that service users experience their mental health condition.
• Discuss how care was planned for the service user you have identified and consider how this was linked to the principles of recovery. Describe and analyse how the collaborative care plan that was devised, was able to support and address their needs.
• Identify and evaluate evidence-based interventions and provide rationale(s) for the choice of specific interventions. Refer to relevant policy guidance and frameworks to demonstrate an awareness of these interventions and their efficacy, to link theory and practice.
• Consider the extent of service user’s/carer’s/other professionals (multidisciplinary, multi-agency) involvement in selecting interventions.

Wordcount: State the wordcount of your essay at the end.

MY NOTES
[case study/assignment notes ]
[assignment guidelines ]
· Assessment tools be clear on the (assessment guidelines that I am following)
· Discussion should be evidence based with person centred care- include that withing formulation of the care plan. The application of person-centred care (what the person wants what they need i.e. what goals they have and how they would like to reach that)
· Recovery principles (Do not write ‘to aid their recovery’- does not make sense)
· Make it evident that there is an element of collaboration with the individual.
· Canvas session one recovery principles- mention how some of the recovery principles are being applied in my case study week 1 sep 13th and week 2
· Include the fact that nurses work with a part of a wider mdt they would have included i.e.. Perry would have had talks with the doctor’s psychologist and a community care co
· Lived experience- how that person experiences their condition. This is where individuality comes in
· Vaguely talk about models nursing model but
· Reflecting on real life practice
· Explore the element of risk- pick a particular risk, explain the concept of risk, and consider our professional role within assessment.
· Presenting patients perspective what does the patient say. Has capacity
· Discuss how the service user was engaged- the patient’s involvement, building a rapport getting to know the patient – care
should be centred around engagement and communication. What are the interpersonal skills – communication verbally, nonverbally i.e. body language (demonstrate how one is communicating) ie perry said perry expressed what is the context of the communication.
· Be more analytical when writing
· Not describing the condition in the biography, just mentioning who they are i.e. perry is currently a 54-year-old person with a diagnosis of schizophrenia diagnosed with his condition at age 30 and had been know
· No sub-headings unless it is between assessment and care planning
· Interpersonal relationships within assessment- values and engagement with the individual while carrying out assessment empathetic care – attempting person centredness
· Identifying risk and capacity what is beneficial to their recovery
· Elements of therapeutic engagement and importance of therapeutic relations
· How to conduct an assessment the interview techniques used and observation, (look at the tidal model in terms of building a therapeutic relationship)
· The partnership and the way the nurse works with the patient
· ‘Important to show perry that I was interested and valued his personal journey’
· Talk about how I first started to engage with perry i.e. asking him how he found it being on the ward if he feels like he has been getting the support he needs
· Roger’s principles * positive non-judgemental (treating and individual as an I dividual rather than an illness)
· Ie ‘I used open ended questions to…’ when talking about communication
· Need to define what care planning is and the way service users experience care planning and then discuss how you sat with the patient and put together a care plan and how it was linked to person centred recovery also need to reflect the patient and interventions should be evidence based. Look at the trust care plan policy expectations when care planning.
· Care plan must make it look like the patient is being empowered for their care.

How do you think that revenue would increase in each of the areas?

As a member of the finance team, you have been asked to forecast the upcoming year’s operational budget for Krona Community Hospital. Click here for last year’s budget. After reviewing specific data, internal input, and external input from various sources, you find that the executive management team would like the budget to reflect the following:

10% increase in inpatient revenue

15% increase in outpatient revenue

5% increase in pharmacy revenue

15% increase in home health and hospital revenue

10% increase in payroll and benefits

Additionally, provide discussion on the following:

How do you think that revenue would increase in each of the areas? Think outside of the box, and perform research to determine current trends in those areas.

Why would there be a forecasted need to increase payroll and benefits?

Explain the role of key leadership in the budgeting process, from the chief executive officer down through to the staff level of a financial analyst.

Critically consider the extent to which a current criminal justice issue can be explained by sociological theories of crime and deviance.

Essay Question: Critically consider the extent to which a current criminal justice issue can be explained by sociological theories of crime and deviance.’

In this case the Criminal justice Issue my lecturer has given us is Drill music, the two theories we are using subcultural theory, labelling theory.

You must apply both theories to your chosen issue. This could give you the opportunity to compare and contrast theories, their relative strengths, and limitations. However, be mindful of the word limit.

When analysing a theory/issue? Make sure you include the advantages and disadvantages?
The merits and limitations of a theory (or more than one) can be analysed in relation to the chosen criminal justice issue in practice. For example, in analysing a particular issue, you may rely on classic criminology (e.g., free will, rationality) to explain someone’s actions or conduct, however that same issue or conduct may be influenced by social factors. Here you would evidence the limitations of, for example, classic criminology, and evaluate the strengths of other theories such as structural theories or subcultural theories.

You should develop your argument based on your views of the issue and the strengths/weaknesses of the theory/theories. Your views should be evidence-based, however. For example, saying that labelling theory is unable to fully explain a certain issue is more an opinion than it is a fact. However, you can then back this view by giving examples of the theory’s weakness based on the evidence you have gathered, which would be more fact-based.

Layout guideline
A rough guideline could be for the intro and conclusion to be 250/300 words each, and the main body of the essay (the remaining 1750 or so words) broken down into three points of 500 – 600 words each, or four points of roughly 435 words each. There is no rule around this.

Critically assessing
It will be fine to critically assess individual theories without talking about the broader, overall theories or approaches that they belong to. For example, if you are comparing strain theory and labelling theory (as per a question posted above) you can do that without necessarily mentioning sociological positivism and interactionism. If you are discussing the merits and limitations of deterrence theory, you don’t have to mention classicism etc. unless it’s relevant to your chosen issue and the question.

In each paragraph try to make a single point. The first sentence of your para should give the reader a clear sense of the point you are trying to make.

Of course, it may be that a bigger argument needs to be broken down into smaller points, with a paragraph for each point. When thinking about how much space to give to different parts of your argument, try to think about (a) the complexity of different elements of your argument (b) their relative importance to your overall argument © the degree to which they are contested. This will help you to think which elements of your argument need the most space in your argument.

Exploring something critically means evaluating a particular argument/ theory / approach. It is important to think about how a particular author has come to their conclusions and whether you find those conclusions credible: what evidence do they use? Does this match the claims that they are making? Is the evidence comprehensive etc.

In this process, you can ‘think with’ other scholars – who might agree or disagree with the particular theorist you are exploring? What is important here, however, is not just to cite a variety of sources / authors who might disagree for the sake of it. The purpose of thinking with others is to take us further in coming to more credible arguments. So, make sure that when you are bringing other scholars and perspectives in, you are thinking critically about them as well.

It is important that you have an argument and that we are able to see what you think and why. This does not mean, however, that you need to agree entirely with a single theorist. Your conclusion might be that a combination of different approaches is useful.

A common misconception is that a ‘strong’ argument is a blunt argument or an extreme argument. This is not the case. When we are assessing the arguments, you are making, we are thinking about the evidence that you are offering and the conclusions you reach on that basis. It is the clarity of your argument and the rigour of the evidence that you offer that will make it strong.

Do faculty members from other cultures interact freely with students as their majority colleagues do?

Title
Multiculturalism in education: Faculty experiences while working in a different cultural setting.
Rationale
In education, it is vital to promote multiculturalism and ensure that educators can work in any institution of their choice. Therefore, it is critical to understand the experiences of individuals who are the minority culture in their institutions (Borkett, 2018). Some of the issues that have been noticed to cause challenges in the education sector include ethnicity, racism, and xenophobia. Consequently, it is vital to understand the current status of the learning institutions in issues of integration. The faculty members from racial minorities may experience challenges that may hinder them from being effective. Some of these challenges may emanate from different areas, such as fellow faculty members and the students. In some cases, institutions have been noticed to shy away from hiring staff from some culture because of performance stereotypes (Borkett, 2018). The faculty members from other cultures may, therefore, be disadvantaged at their workplaces.
In some cases, the faculty members may experience challenges that may hinder them from interacting freely with their students and thus affect their performance (Kim et al., 2014). In most cases, the students may fail to interact effectively with such professors because of their perceptions and stereotypes. Underlying cultural beliefs may affect the relationship of the faculty members with their fellow faculty members and the students, thus preventing them from being effective in their duties. For instance, it has been noted that racial perceptions have had a significant effect on the performance of faculty members in institutions of higher learning (Craft, 2017). In the case of African American professor who is working in a predominantly white institution, the professor may experience challenges both in interacting effectively with the students as well as with fellow professors.
The cultural differences have also been noted to affect the performance of the faculty members directly (Beachum, 2020). For instance, an Indian professor who came from Asia may experience a challenge in issues such as communication that may affect their performance. An accent can prevent the professor from being effective in delivering content to the students. While the students may understand well what a lecturer with an accent is offering, the pronunciation may act as a block, preventing students from performing well (Beachum, 2020). A professor may also not understand particular issues such as social interaction tendencies, and this may hinder them from interacting freely with the students, especially outside the lecture room.
Research Questions
In this study, to understand the experiences of the faculty members who work in a culture different from theirs, the following questions will be used:
1. Do faculty members from other cultures interact freely with students as their majority colleagues do?
2. Do the faculty members from minority cultures feel appreciated and comfortable working in this environment?
3. How do students feel about faculty members from other cultures different from theirs?
Methodology
The study will utilize a qualitative approach in which the data collected will be descriptive. In this case, multiple items will be used to ensure that as much data as possible is collected to provide an adequate understanding of the issue. Therefore, the study will utilize both interviews and questionnaires, targeting both the faculty members and the students. On the faculty, the research will have a questionnaire for those from minority cultures and those from majority cultures. The study must include at least a hundred and fifty participants, with a majority being students and about 30% being the target faculty members. Despite that the students are not the target group, they will be involved in better understanding the issue, considering that they are central to it. Therefore, the students should be questioned on their perceptions of having faculty members from other cultures and how they feel the issue affects their academic performance. The minority faculty members must be asked questions that regard how they think the environment favors or fails to empower them to work. The data collected will be analyzed and interpreted in the descriptive technique.

Which financial statement should you examine first if you are interested in assessing solvency?

A structured analysis of a company’s financial statements involves three steps:
• step one: assess if the company is ‘liquid’ (liquidity is the ability of the company to convert its assets into cash)
• step two: assess if the company is ‘solvent’ (solvency is the ability of the company to pay its debts as and when they fall due)
• step three: assess the ‘profitability’ of the company.
If the first two steps indicate an organisation that is not solvent or liquid, then an examination of its profitability will indicate whether a restructuring or some form of rescue is worthwhile.
The company would possibly be taken into the administration process if it cannot convert debtors’ balances into cash, pay its obligations when due (payroll and accounts payable) and service its long-term debt (loans and bonds). If any of these conditions occur, it would be of limited value to analyse the ability of a company to generate profits. In such circumstances, it would be of more value to analyse the ability of a company to realise its assets for cash so as to pay its outstanding liabilities.
Step one: assess liquidity
• Of the three primary financial statements (the balance sheet, the income statement and the statement of cash flows), which one should you examine first to complete a liquidity assessment?
Of the three primary financial statements, the statement of cash flows is likely to tell you something directly about the sources of liquidity.
• Does any financial statement tell you something indirectly about liquidity?
The answer is yes and, as you will soon see, two financial statements do tell you something indirectly about liquidity:
o the income statement (profit and loss account)
o the balance sheet (also known, as you have learned already in Session 3, as the ‘statement of financial position’).
The answers to the questions above are determined by the factors on which financial sustainability depends. If you are prepared to accept a definition of financial sustainability as a company’s ability to continue in the ordinary course of business while considering the demands of its stakeholders, then you need to identify the stakeholders.
Financial stakeholders such as lenders and other creditors expect to be paid monies due to them and in a timely fashion.
Determining liquidity
Step one of a structured financial analysis is about determining the ability of the organisation to convert its assets to cash. This ability can be termed liquidity. The statement of cash flows provides direct information about the liquidity of an organisation, whereas the income statement and the balance sheet (statement of financial position) provide indirect information about liquidity. For example, the income statement shows us revenues. We can combine that information with the receivables figures on the balance sheet to calculate of those revenues, how much was actually received in actual cash flow. This same information is also shown directly on the cash flow (albeit as part of the ‘cash from operations’). What we earn (revenues) can be quite different from what we receive in cash terms. Appreciating this difference can be vital to understanding an organisation’s liquidity.
Step two: assess solvency
Once you have assessed a company’s liquidity, do you need to analyse further? While completion of step one may have enabled you to assess the ease with which a company can convert its assets into cash, that determination has not allowed you to assess the ability of a company to honour its liabilities as and when they fall due. This ability is known as solvency. Consider the following questions that are relevant to developing your thinking about solvency assessments.
• Which financial statement should you examine first if you are interested in assessing solvency?
The financial statement that would be most relevant for assessing solvency is partly determined by the financial statement in which liabilities are recorded.
• What is the relevant financial statement for a solvency assessment?
The balance sheet would be relevant for a solvency assessment. Amounts owed to lenders and other creditors are recorded in the balance sheet as short-term (‘current’) liabilities and long-term (‘non-current’) liabilities.
• Does any other financial statement tell you something about solvency?
Ask yourself where a company’s long-term ability to pay debts arises. Surely a company can pay its debts only after realising an operating profit, or, more accurately, collecting cash from sales in order to pay its suppliers and payroll and to service its debt obligations. In the short term, of course, it could try new borrowings or share issues to help cash flow. But ultimately the company must become profitable to be able to generate sustainable cash flows.
Determining solvency
Step two of the financial analysis is about determining solvency of a company. To determine solvency you will need to examine both the balance sheet (focusing on liabilities payable) and the income statement (focusing on the sufficiency of revenues and profits to pay suppliers and payroll and to meet debt obligations).
Step three: assess profitability
So far, having completed steps one and two, have you addressed the needs and concerns of shareholders? In steps one and two, you attended to the demands of other stakeholders such as debtors and creditors, but shareholders are neither debtors or creditors.
• Shareholders expect to be paid any dividends at each financial year-end, but where does a company find the money to pay as dividends?
A company is permitted to pay dividends from a financial account found in the balance sheet known as the ‘retained profits’ (or ‘revenues reserves’) (it is in the shareholders’ equity section of the balance sheet).
The question that arises now is this: how does the retained profits reserve get credited – that is, how are retained profits increased over time? The answer is by net profit after taxation each year.
When a company makes a profit, it will transfer that profit from the income statement, where the profit figure will first appear, to its balance-sheet retained profits (or revenue reserve account). All this means is that shareholders have a vested interest in profitability. In the medium- to long-term, if a company does not make profits, it will not be permitted to and nor will it be able to pay dividends, unless it has previously undistributed retained profits.

Explain how the operations of the organisation contribute to the functioning of the service concept. Explain the processes, layout, environment, supply chain, etc. of the organization

Assessment Information – What you need to do
This assignment will take the form of a report detailing the main areas of investigation. Select a
service organisation of your own choice, or a part of such an organisation (e.g. A supermarket; A
fast?food outlet; An educational service; A tourist attraction; A bank or building society; A Gym;
etc.). For your chosen organisation produce a report, which should address the following tasks:
1. Describe the service concept of the organisation (use the service concept worksheet).

Research one of the Roman Emperors and using what is known about their political lives, write a campaign speech for today, referencing their accomplishments (or terrorizings), as potential campaign promises

Objective: Research the Roman Emperors and apply one of the political lives to a modern campaign
speech.
Instructions: Research one of the Roman Emperors and using what is known about their political
lives, write a campaign speech for today, referencing their accomplishments (or terrorizings), as
potential campaign promises. In other words, if one of the emperors burned down Atlanta because it
was a mortal enemy of the Roman state, then you could reference in your speech how Atlanta needs to
be stopped and if need be, burned to the ground. See what I mean? You can use anything from their
personal and professional histories.
Using their actual political goals and stories, write a 400-600 word speech declaring why you (as the
Roman emperor you have chosen) should be named as the new Emperor of Rome. (You’re not
emperor yet, so this is your speech to become emperor…yes, I know that’s not how it *actually* goes,
but let’s have some fun)
Consider these things: how do politicians address scandals, political platforms, wants and desires in
their speeches. What should be said to convince the people of this empire that you (as the Roman
Emperor) would be perfect for them? You may want to review some speeches to get a few ideas of
what people say to guarantee the masses this is a good idea, if you can find some from that time.
So, how would you approach the people of Rome and its territories to convince them you should be
emperor? Knowing what you found out about your emperor, write your speech to play up your
strengths as a possible candidate and address their needs as well. You can be serious or funny, as long
as you are persuasive and can convince your (possible) future citizens.

Discuss what type of cellular alteration the patient with necrotic toe is likely experiencing .

Discuss what type of cellular alteration the patient with necrotic toe is likely experiencing . Does this
represent an adaptive change, an injury, an irreversible change? Discuss the underlying
pathophysiology at the cellular and tissue level. What signs and symptoms would you expect the
patient exhibit?

Discuss source material that is supporting your final decision for culture or subculture and product compatibility

Instructions
Selecting a Populated Area and its Culture or Subculture
The organization, the culture or subculture, and the product that you chose in Unit I will be the subject for basic research for the remainder of the course. Research will be required to form a solid base for matching one of the two populated areas to your organization’s product with focus on the culture and subcultures of your selected country and populated area.
For deciding on a populated area, you will review, at a minimum, two cultures or subcultures. Take into account the selected product’s compatibility. For each of these, you should research a minimum of two sources with divergent views. The review will require a focus on the outcome, but not an outcome that you predetermine. Let the discussions used in comparing material from one source against the other sources guide you to a conclusion. You may use the Assignment Template to assist you in formatting.
It is important to ensure the absolute separation of what writing comes from your brain and what information comes from your sources. There must never be any doubt in the reader’s mind regarding what is original information and what is referenced material. To do this, the in-text citations must be impeccable. In the Unit II Required Unit Resources section, you will be able to access the Sample Research Paper. Use this model to prepare your in-text citations and references.
The body for this assignment will provide a detailed description of the process used to select the organization and the product. Your submission must be a minimum of two pages in length, although you should not limit the thoroughness of your research and discussion based on this minimum requirement. The format will include, but is not be limited to, the elements listed below.
• Utilize at least two sources.
• Discuss source material that is supporting your final decision for culture or subculture and product compatibility.
• Restate the issue, question, or task that the document will be analyzing, which—in this case—is narrowing choices to two countries with one recommendation and selecting one product.
• Provide pros or cons, good and bad ideas, and poor and excellent results (i.e., do not prejudge the outcome).
• Provide an analysis of your research from all sides; once again, do not slant the analysis toward a specific flow.
• Now, provide the Board of Directors with conclusions and recommendations.
• Include in-text citations and references.
Document your sources and relevant notes for use when formatting in-text citations and references. Adhere to APA Style (7th ed.) when constructing this assignment, including in-text citations and references for all sources that are used. Please note that no abstract is needed.
