Respond to at least two (2) of your classmates’ or your instructor’s posts. Your responses should include elements such as follow-up questions, a further exploration of topics from the initial post, or requests for further clarification or explanation on some points made.

Analyze the facts of the hypothetical situation against the right or responsibility to explain how there was a violation.

6 HA 500

This week, you learned that employees have a multitude of rights and responsibilities, much like a patient. Employees have to feel safe in their environment in order to provide the best possible care to patients.

Thus, federal, state, and local laws provide rules for the treatment of employees as well as the expectations of employees.

For this discussion prompt, use the St. Martha’s General Hospital Scenario.

After reviewing a scenario and reading about employee rights and responsibilities, discuss an employee right or responsibility that may have been violated at St. Martha’s General Hospital.

Then, analyze the facts of the hypothetical situation against the right or responsibility to explain how there was a violation.

How does this assignment relate to your field, and in what way can you take the lessons you learned to your workplace? Describe which choices you made at the primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention levels.

This week, you will visit and view the WILL interactive “Partnering to Heal” simulation. Choose either of the two characters and play the scenario in full.

Each character in the simulation is in a different role. Ensure that you read the roles and descriptions of each character in the simulation and play the one which most closely resembles your career field and/or interests.

After you complete the simulation redo the scenario, but this time, change the choices and note the outcomes those changes create.

Reflect on the assignment, your own choices, and the outcomes.

How did you do in your role?
Which choices led to outcomes you did not expect?

What is the future of online learning? This is the topic for this research paper.

What is the future of online learning? This is the topic for this research paper.

The primary goal is to explore your research question with depth and sophistication rather than persuade an audience of a particular viewpoint.

While you will need to propose some sort of answer to your question in this research paper, that answer may be tentative. It may, for example, point in the direction of further questions and further research.

It may identify contradictions in your research that are, at this time, irresolvable. Again, in writing this paper, focus on exploring, interpreting, and synthesizing ideas rather than on “defending” a.

if you have Unknown C/3, you know it is Gram-negative; therefore, would you expect it to be susceptible to penicillin? Why or why not?

1. Click on this link, and read up on the theory behind and the protocol for performing a Kirby Bauer Antibiotic Sensitivity Assay https://bio.libretexts.org/Learning_Objects/Laboratory_Experiments/Microbiology_Labs/Microbiology_Labs_/09%3A_Kirby-Bauer_(Antibiotic_Sensitivity)

2. Review the given antibiotic sensitivity results for each of your unknowns. Please understand that I could not find all identical assays, performed with the same antibiotics.

3. Your assignment this week is to:

a. Finish your results section, with the antibiotic sensitivity results from this week included

i.understand that some of these results are in diameter of zone of inhibition (in mm), some report S = susceptible or NS = not susceptible, some report % resist, and others a photo of the zones of inhibition

ii. The goal here is not to have perfect results but, rather, to help support what you know about if your unknown is gram positive or gram-negative, and how its biochemical characteristics from the past couple week’s tests.

For example, if you have Unknown C/3, you know it is Gram-negative; therefore, would you expect it to be susceptible to penicillin? Why or why not?

b. Write at least the first two paragraphs of your Discussion and Conclusion Section
i.Remember, in your Results section, you are simply stating WHAT you observed.

1. For example, you may have a photo of your bacterium growing on MSA and the figure legend will read, “Figure X. Growth of Unknown A on mannitol salt agar (MSA).

And your description of your results would describe what you observed (e.g. Unknown A exhibited ample growth on MSA with colonies pink in colony.)

ii. For the Discussion and Conclusions, this is where you say when the results MEAN or imply. For example, “Based on the fact that Unknown A exhibited ample growth on MSA, it appears that this bacterium is halotolerant, and can survive in high salt conditions.

In combination with the cocci morphology and the fact that this bacterium is gram-positive, this strongly suggests that Unknown A is a Staphylococcus species. Then, based on the lack of color change of the MSA from pink to yellow implies that Unknown A is….”

How is it being positioned in relation to customer needs and competitive offerings? What is the level of customer satisfaction? How is it managing the marketing mix? What are your recommendations on its strategies on segmentation, targeting and positioning and marketing mix?

Niyadi – Comparative Market Analysis of an Organization

The project work should not be a pure description of the company, but should also involve critical evaluation and/or identification of key issues. The following are some guidelines for the project:

1. Select a industry in which you are interested (i.e.: consumer goods, industrial goods, travel, postal, health care, entertainment, finance, retail, etc.).

2. Select a leading business in your field of interest. For example, in the travel industry, you might select an airline, a cruise line, a tourism bureau, a hotel chain, a travel agency, a car rental firm or a resort/destination.

3. Prepare a critical evaluation of the organization that you have chosen. Some of the criteria for evaluation are: At whom is this product / service targeted? What is the product / service concept, stated in terms of results produced for the customer?

How is it being positioned in relation to customer needs and competitive offerings? What is the level of customer satisfaction? How is it managing the marketing mix? What are your recommendations on its strategies on segmentation, targeting and positioning and marketing mix?

4. Conduct a comparative analysis between the leader you have chosen and a company (or companies) within the industry that does not enjoy the same success. What strengths and weaknesses do you find in their marketing efforts? How have their efforts enhanced or hindered the company’s image and success?

5. Your analysis should use the concepts developed during the course where appropriate.

How did you collect your data? what were your data sources? what was the strategy behind the analysis of data? why did you adopt this? what are the limitations of your approach?

Topic: football structure

Looking into the differences in broadcasting, club ownership and fan attendance.

Methodology

In summary, the methodology part needs to tell the reader the step-by-step procedure you have undertaken in order to conduct your research. For example, you should answer questions such as: what is your ontological position as a researcher? – Master level student.

how did you collect your data? what were your data sources? what was the strategy behind the analysis of data? why did you adopt this? what are the limitations of your approach?

Using theories and models taught in this module and associated reading, you will identify and critically evaluate your organisation’s current strategic situations.

Evaluate your organisation’s current strategic situations

The following assignment should be based on Amazon

Using theories and models taught in this module and associated reading, you will identify and critically evaluate your organisation’s current strategic situations.

Your evaluation must include the organisation’s purpose statements, critical environmental factors (micro, meso & macro), corporate or Strategic Business Unit (SBU)’ strategies, and the implementation environment.

The overarching aim of this work is for you to reflect upon your organisation’s current situations and offer a realistic set of recommendations for improvement. The assessment must therefore make recommendations for further organisational practice development.

You are expected to evaluate your organisations above listed strategic issues and comment on how adequate/successful they are, using what has been explored in the module and the associated reading.

You will consider the organisation’s purpose statements, critical environmental factors (micro, meso & macro), corporate or Strategic Business Unit (SBU)’ strategies, and the implementation environment.

You should offer recommendations for future success, given the current and expected technical and behavioural challenges and leadership capabilities.

You will also consider how you will communicate or implement (for sole top executives or business owners) your proposed changes to the relevant stakeholders.

Suggested Structure

There is no required structure or ‘headings’ for your report – each assignment will vary depending on the issue chosen to analyse and how that issue is analysed/approached – however, the following guide may be helpful:

Executive summary and introduction of your chosen issue
