Healthcare Information Technology Trends

Throughout history, technological advancements have appeared for one purpose before finding applications elsewhere that lead to spikes in its usage and development. The internet, for example, was originally developed to share research before becoming a staple of work and entertainment. But technology—new and repurposed—will undoubtedly continue to be a driver of healthcare information. Informaticists often stay tuned to trends to monitor what the next new technology will be or how the next new idea for applying existing technology can benefit outcomes. In this Discussion, you will reflect on your healthcare organization’s use of technology and offer a technology trend you observe in your environment. To Prepare: - Reflect on the Resources related to digital information tools and technologies. - Consider your healthcare organization’s use of healthcare technologies to manage and distribute information. - Reflect on current and potential future trends, such as use of social media and mobile applications/telehealth, Internet of Things (IoT)-enabled asset tracking, or expert systems/artificial intelligence, and how they may impact nursing practice and healthcare delivery. Post a brief description of general healthcare technology trends, particularly related to data/information you have observed in use in your healthcare organization or nursing practice. Describe any potential challenges or risks that may be inherent in the technologies associated with these trends you described. Then, describe at least one potential benefit and one potential risk associated with data safety, legislation, and patient care for the technologies you described. Next, explain which healthcare technology trends you believe are most promising for impacting healthcare technology in nursing practice and explain why. Describe whether this promise will contribute to improvements in patient care outcomes, efficiencies, or data management. Be specific and provide examples. -Use subheadings to highlight which point you are addressing -A minimum of 3 current sources (less than 5 years old) is needed (2 from school and one from outside).

Analyze the fact you have chosen about suicide using Durkheim’s work as offered to you above and one scholarly resource

Why suicides happen, particularly in prosperous and healthy societies, has puzzled social scientists for decades. When sociologists talk about suicide, they are likely to include Durkheim’s work in their discussion. In Section One of the Social Theory Re-wired text, you should read Emile Durkheim’s “Suicide,” what the Sociology - Émile Durkheim (Links to an external site.) video, and also read the following summary (Links to an external site.) to help you grasp the causal factors and three concepts of suicide Durkheim presents in his greater work. Then, listen to the Freakonomics podcast (Links to an external site.). (If you are not familiar with the Freakonomics podcast, it is created by a journalist and an economist, who both use economics to debunk commonly held beliefs about why the world is the way it is.) If you have any issues listening to the podcast, there is a link to the transcript of the recording in the third paragraph below the podcast link. For your Final Paper - Select one fact about suicide from the podcast that you find particularly interesting or surprising and explain it in your paper. - Analyze the fact you have chosen about suicide using Durkheim’s work as offered to you above and one scholarly resource. Through your analysis, you should respond to the following:- Based on Durkheim’s work, can the level of integration or regulation in society be an explanation for the “social fact about suicide” you have picked? Present one (1) scholarly resource which provides evidence or support of this. - Which of the three concepts of suicide (as presented by Durkheim) is your chosen fact most aligned to? Present the concept and explain why. If you believe it isn’t aligned explain why not. - The video presents nine ways that Durkheim’s work and recent research has linked societal influence to suicide. Does your chosen fact relate to any of these? - Finally, explain how classical social theory like Durkheim’s work is useful and valuable to modern researchers, theorists and social policy makers. Your paper must be five to six double-spaced pages in length (not including the title and reference page) and formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Writing Center. You should include the text, the text reading of Emile Durkheim’s “Suicide,” and at least two scholarly sources from the University of Arizona Global Campus Library in your submission. The Final Paper - Must be five to six double-spaced pages in length (excluding title and reference pages), and formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Writing Center (Links to an external site.). - Must include a title page with the following:- Title of paper - Student’s name - Course name and number - Instructor’s name - Date submitted - Must begin with an introductory paragraph that has a succinct thesis statement. - Must address the topic of the paper with critical thought. - Must end with a conclusion that reaffirms your thesis. - Must include the text, the text reading of Emile Durkheim’s “Suicide,” and at least two (2) scholarly sources from the University of Arizona Global Campus Library in your submission.

MJ602 Public Policy and Criminal Justice

Lesson 3: Prosecution and Defense Discussion Question 2 (50 points) In the words of Robert F. Kennedy, “If an obscure Florida convict named Clarence Earl Gideon had not sat down in his prison cell to write a letter to the Supreme Court, the vast machinery of American law would have gone on functioning undisturbed. But Gideon did write the letter, the Court did look into his case, and the whole course of American legal history has been changed” (http://www.landmarkcases.org/Gideon/home/htm). Many of the decisions the United States Supreme Court renders are based on the principle of stare decisis, or “let the previous decision stand.” In the case of Gideon v. Wainwright, the Court clearly broke with a precedent it had previously established through prior case law, stare decisis. Review the Gideon v. Wainwright case and analyze it for the purpose of citing its key finding and the Court’s rationale. See the majority opinion written by Justice Hugo Black. The Gideon case is cited as “Gideon v. Wainwright,” 372 U.S. 335 (1963). There are a number of Web sites where you can retrieve the facts/findings of the case. One such Web site is http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com. Another Web site is http://www.landmarkcases.org/gideon/home.html. Discuss the key finding and the Court’s rationale. (50 points) (A 2-page response is required.) Read the full article

Critical thinking 1: Principles of Management Reference: MGT490-Book-Chapter No-01 (The Exceptional Manager) This chapter has introduced you to how Henry Mintzberg changed the perception of a manager's role by studying how they spent their working day and classifying managerial activities into decisional, interpersonal and informational roles. This gave a new insight into the activities involved in being a manager but did not distinguish between the things that people called ‘manager’ do that contribute to the management of the organisation (such as coordination and control) from the things they do that everyone in an organisation does (such as talking to other people). In this context, the earlier contribution of Fayol in outlining the main purposes of management is considered to still be of relevance, although it provides limited understanding of how managerial jobs are affected by the environment in which managers work. you will need to do further research beyond reading the chapter. Assignment Question(s): 1. To understand what managers do, explain how it is necessary to study both the activities performed by managers and the purposes of their activity. (05 Marks) (Min words 150-200) 2. As well as variation across the levels of management (first-tier, middle and top), how would you expect the manager's role to vary with the extent to which the organisational environment is changing, such as through new technology, changes in market demand or new forms of competition? (05 Marks) (Min words 200) 3. Mintzberg’s study in the 1960s came up with three important findings about a manager’s routine. What are they, and are they probably still the same today? (05 Marks) (Min words 150-200) 4. What is the potential importance of studying how managers like to spend their work time as well as how they actually allocate their work time between different activities? (05 Marks) (Min words 200) 5.Explain how it is possible that there might be a difference between successful and effective managers in terms of how each type of manager tends to spend their time. (05 Marks) (Min words 150-200) 6.What are the seven challenges of being a manager, and which one is the one I will probably most have to worry about during my lifetime?. (05 Marks) (Min words 150-200) Important Note: - 1.
