identify a major patient-safety issue within your own organization and use evidence-based best practices and technology to develop a plan to improve the safety issue.

Quality improvement and patient safety are central to the nursing leadership role.

Central to the nursing leadership role, quality improvement and patient safety are analyzed from many perspectives. Types of quality improvement and patient safety programs may range from internal, organization-based quality improvement team reports to external benchmarks from The Joint Commission, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), MAGNET, and numerous other organizations.

Preparation

As you prepare for this assessment, complete the following:

1. Before you begin, examine your organization’s history of safety in a specific area and how your organization addresses patient safety issues. If possible, consult with a key stakeholder in the organization (such as an administrator) to better understand specific patient-safety concerns and how the organization is working to resolve the concerns. This person should also be able to discuss some of the organizational barriers impacting the patient safety issue.
2. Next, look at the basic concepts, principles, and practices that contribute to organizational quality improvement and patient safety. Review the literature for best practices and how technology might be used to improve the issue.
3. Finally, be sure to consider the legal and ethical implications associated with the safety issue, as well as possible organizational barriers to change.

Directions

As you construct this assessment, address each point as completely as possible:

• Describe a patient-safety issue within your organization.
• Compare the way your organization addresses patient-safety issues with the concepts, principles, and practices that contribute to quality improvement and patient safety.
• Analyze the legal and ethical consequences of not addressing the issue.
• Recommend evidence-based interventions to address the patient-safety issue.
• Explain how technology can be used to improve the issue.
• Identify possible organizational barriers to change (budget, vision, technology, et cetera).
• Describe strategies to overcome organizational barriers to change, based on your knowledge of the organization.

analyze a key issue facing a population segment in order to propose an area for additional research. Your research will: Part I: Background Describe your chosen population segment. Explain one major social issue facing your selected population segment. Provide statistics and background data to document the social issues facing your selected population segment. Analyze the social and cultural factors contributing to the social issue. What are the political, economic, legal, practical, and ethical aspects of the issue? What are the multiple levels contributing to and/or perpetuating the issues (i.e., individual, group, and societal levels)? What are the personal, professional, and ethical implications on the society? Relate two sociological perspectives to provide context for your selected population in order to explain their most significant challenges faced by that population. Apply data from your research to support your claims about the challenges. Part II: Research Proposal Propose a statistical research project that directly relates to the social issue you identified for your selected population. Create a plan to conduct your research study, describing in detail what you want to measure and why. Below are a few points to include: Who would be involved? What would be a realistic timeline for completing your proposed project? How many people would be needed to conduct the research project from a staffing perspective? Which statistical analysis method (e.g., statistical tests/measurements) would be most appropriate for your application? How many subjects would you require for your study? Evaluate the importance of your proposed research study, and describe how the resulting data could best be used and which organizations or agencies will benefit best from it

Using the Delphi technique, your team constructed the following risks register for the VoIP project containing the risk, the likelihood of its occurrence on a scale of 1 (least likely) to 5 (most likely), and the potential negative impact on the project on the same scale. In addition, they recommended the appropriate response and identified its type for one of the risks identified.

 

#	Risk	Likelihood (1-5)	Impact (1-5)	Response Type	Response
1	Project Delay due to lack of resources	3	5
2	Project runs out of funds before completion	1	5
3	Users reject new system	2	4
4	Defective Hardware	1	5
5	New government regulations introduced during deployment increase the cost of running VoIP.	2	3
6	A Yearly Renewal Fee issued on the legacy system due to delay of over 30 days in deployment of the new system	1	4	Mitigation	Schedule check 30 days before project deadline to determine if action needs to be taken to avoid delay. Decision tree will be utilized.

 

Write a four pages paper with three references in which you:

• Explain risk management and its associated activities and defend the need for a risk management plan.
• Describe the Delphi technique used to identify risks and infer n types of projects where this technique is most accurate.
• Examine the four (4) types of risk response (ie., avoidance, acceptance, transference, and mitigation) and determine the appropriate situation where each should be used.
• Complete the table with the risk response type (i.e.., avoidance, acceptance, transference, and mitigation) and a description of the response.
• Create a decision tree diagram with the software of your choice (Word, PowerPoint, Visio, etc.) and make an OFFICE document or PDF to address Risk Number 6.
• Assume that when you check the schedule on day 60 of the project, it becomes evident that two additional engineers are needed to ensure on-time completion of the project. The engineers cost $25,000 each and a fee of $120,000 is issued by the legacy provider. The probability of completing the project on time is as follows: With the current personnel – 60%; With one engineer – 80%; With both engineers – 98%.
• Fully explain your rationale in the document you create. How does your decision tree flow? What are your decision points, and most importantly, what is your recommendation and how did you arrive at this conclusion? Is there a point of diminishing return where it would be so expensive that it wouldn’t be worth it to employ the additional resources? Why or why not? Be sure to use proper business communication and consider your audience to be business leaders in the organization at which you are employed. Remember, 100% original work is required. Research on the Internet is fine, but do not submit work that is not your own, and do not submit work that you’ve submitted anywhere previously. Plagiarism detection tools will be used to ensure originality.

Is Stem cell theraphy really promissing? what diseases and conditions can be treated with stem cells? For what conditions and diseases the stem cell works well? Ex: Hair loss, diabetics, Cancer (type of cancer that stem cell are effective), genetics disease (neurological problems like Spinal Muscular Astophy, Parkinsons,Autism, Cerebral Palsy), Asthma.
Looking for the summary and evidence for each disease, how stem cells theraphy works for each of the above diseases and why it works well for some diseases and why not others?

ongoing challenges in the global business environment are mostly attributed to unethical business practices, failure to embrace technology advancements, and stiff competition among businesses. Imagine that you have been appointed as the Chief Compliance Officer of a Fortune 500 company of your choice and must prepare a presentation for your suppliers regarding your Supplier Code of Conduct to deliver via a web meeting.

List specific changes that your company has made to its Code of Conduct in recent years. Provide at least one (1) example of each change.
2.Explain the identified changes to the suppliers in such a way that they will understand the standards that your company requires in order to maintain their relationship with the company.
