Explain how diagnosing a client with a personality disorder may affect their treatment.
Discussion: Personality Disorders
Personality disorders can arise through trauma, and they often carry added stigma. In this Discussion, you analyze a case study focused on a personality disorder while also reflecting on how power, privilege, and stigma affect such diagnoses.
To prepare: Review the case provided by your instructor for this weeks Discussion and consider your differential diagnostic process for them. Be sure to consider any past diagnoses and what influence those might have on their current diagnosis and needs.
Finally, return to the Week 1 resources on stigma and reflect on stigma related to personality disorders.
Post a 400-word response in which you address the following:
· Provide the full DSM-5 diagnosis. Remember, a full diagnosis should include the name of the disorder, ICD-10-CM code, specifiers, severity, and the Z codes (other conditions that may need clinical attention). Keep in mind a diagnosis covers the most recent 12 months.
· Explain the diagnosis by matching the symptoms identified in the case to the specific criteria for the diagnosis.
· Support your decision by identifying the symptoms which meet specific criteria for each diagnosis.
· Identify any close differentials and why they were eliminated. Concisely support your decisions with the case materials and readings.
· Explain how diagnosing a client with a personality disorder may affect their treatment.
· Analyze how power and privilege may influence who is labeled with a personality disorder and which types of personality disorders.
· Identify how trauma affects the case, either precipitating the diagnosis and/or resulting from related symptoms or treatment of diagnosis.
Must contain at least 3 references and citations from the materials.
Outline organizational needs that define the requirements for the selected type of IT system applied to HIM.
Overview
In this assignment, you will examine IT systems applied to health information management (HIM), the potential vulnerabilities of these systems, and protocols to mitigate the risk of data and security breaches that are due to these vulnerabilities. IT systems are used for health information and data management in many areas, including patient electronic medical records (EMR), hospital operations management, and health care policy decisions. The System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a project management framework used to assess IT systems and associated organizational needs to identify and implement improvements to the system. You will write a paper to examine how the SDLC framework can be used to assess an IT system applied to HIM and evaluate risk mitigation protocols that reduce system risk and improve patient quality of care.
Instructions
Write a 5-6 page paper in which you:
Choose a type of IT system applied to Health Information Management (HIM) for improved patient quality of care supported by an explanation for your selection.
Examples include
Electronic Health Record Systems.
e-prescribing Systems.
Clinical Decision Support Systems.
Radiology Information Systems.
Physician Order Entry Systems.
Outline organizational needs that define the requirements for the selected type of IT system applied to HIM.
Critique each of the five phases of the SDLC and how each addresses the organizational needs for the selected type of IT system applied to HIM.
Assess three possible data and security breach vulnerabilities in the selected type of IT system applied to HIM.
Evaluate three protocols to mitigate identified data and security breach vulnerabilities and improve the selected type of IT system applied to HIM.
Synthesize how the outcomes from the analysis of a selected IT system using the SDLC can improve patient quality of care.
How did both the industrial city and the western mining or cattle town differ from the typical American rural village or small town?

Define what recommendations can you offer to help improve organizational functioning?
Select, research, and analyze a real organization (public, private, or non-profit). You may select an organization in which you have worked or have been a member.
Examine a problem or issue of concern within that organization. Be selective in choosing an issue or problem within an organization, as a lack of depth in the issue itself will not be an acceptable excuse for lack of depth in the analysis. The purpose of this CLA is to apply both what has been learned in the course as well as your own independent research to problems in an organization of your choice.
Focus on an issue or problem that the organization is facing and is relevant to the content of this course. It will likely take several reflection sessions to identify a problem or issue that can be clearly defined, is manageable in scope, and is relevant to the course, so start this CLA weeks before it is due.
Gather information while supplementing this information with data from the media, the organization’s literature, and other secondary sources. You should identify a relatively recent problem to analyze (i.e., this should not be an historical account of a problem and the company’s solution). You should focus your analysis by applying the concepts from the course. While it is acceptable to incorporate several concepts from the course, please aim for depth rather than breadth regarding the use of course concepts.
To meet these broad goals, answer the following questions in a 4 page APA formatted written report supported by at least three (3) academic sources:
1) What are the issues or problems facing the organization?
2) What theoretical concepts from this course can be applied to understand why this problem is occurring?
3) What recommendations can you offer to help improve organizational functioning?

Week 1 Discussion Forum (MKT6250 Healthcare Marketing)
1. Discuss marketing and differentiate between a marketing-driven and nonmarketing-driven process.
2. Discuss the importance and sources of a competitive differential advantage.
Week 1 Discussion Forum (ECO550 Managerial Economics)
Bel’s Bakery (BB) is a family owned business. In 2010 it recorded a $3 million operating loss. Apparently, 50% of the losses stemmed from a failed acquisition. With short term interest rates at 5%, the manager (John) convinced the owners to expand its operations. It used $15 million of its retained earnings to acquire another privately owned bakery, Joe’s Bakery (JB). In the first year after the acquisition, revenues from Joe’s was $5 million, but thereafter sales were halted when one of the owners of JB filed suit challenging the rights of the management of JB to sell the company. BB lost the case and paid damages of $1.5 million. John, the manager of BB was fired. In explaining to his wife, John said he was the scapegoat because the attorneys who handled the acquisition failed in their due diligence. He said, “I promised sales of $5 million a year for 3 years and my sales forecast was right on the money.
Why was John fired?
If sales were $6 million annually, would John still have been fired?
Your “substantive” initial response should be a minimum of 300 words, excluding references at the end.
Unit 1 Discussion (ACC450 Advanced Accounting)
DID THE COST METHOD INVITE EARNINGS MANIPULATION?
Prior to GAAP for equity method investments, firms used the cost method to account for their unconsolidated investments in common stock regardless of the presence of significant influence. Under the cost method, when the investee declares a dividend, the investor records dividend income. The investment account typically remains at its original costhence the term cost method.
Many firms compensation plans reward managers based on reported annual income. How might the use of the cost method of accounting for significant influence investments have resulted in unintended wealth transfers from owners to managers? Do the equity or fair-value methods provide similar incentives?
