legalities of health information

This  week we are going even further into the legalities of health  information and  the focus is eDiscovery. eDiscovery refers to  electronic data that is sought  for the use of evidence in a legal  proceeding. As you all know, technology is  heavily used in the  provision and documentation of healthcare. This means that  electronic  data is being utilized as evidence more often now then it was when   healthcare facilities were keeping mostly paper health records. An HIM   professional works with these related challenges:

How  do we ensure that our organization is adequately preserving data?
How  do we properly identify data sources that may contain information that is  pertinent to eDiscovery?
How  do we ensure that there is appropriate access and security of data that is  being sought as evidence in eDiscovery? 

In this  assignment, please create Guidelines for eDiscovery for a  current day  healthcare facility. Use your text, supplemental resources  available on this  topic at AHIMA.org and resources available in the  Rasmussen College Library to  guide your research.
Your  submission must contain a list of numbered guidelines that are  supported by  professional resources evidenced in citations. Do not copy  from your resources  but rather create original guidelines and support  them with resource material  via citations. The average submission will  be no more than 2 pages plus a  resource page.

Leadership Journal

Journaling provides a valuable tool for recording, reflecting on, and reviewing your learning. This approach provides an opportunity for you to “connect the dots” and observe the relationships between and among activities, interactions, and outcomes.

Unlike a personal journal of thoughts and feelings, this Leadership Journal is a record of your activities, assessments, and learning related to this academic experience.

Journal entries should include a record of the number of hours spent with your nurse leader each week.

Write a journal entry of 1,000-1,500 words on the subject of power, including the following:

1. Provide observations and thoughts on the activities in Weeks 1-2. 

· Why all nurses should be considered leaders and the secular approach to leadership in comparison to servant leadership

2. Identify your given “power” at your workplace or in your professional life. What is your greatest contribution in the lives of others?

3. Find three people with whom you interact professionally and ask them to affirm the influence you bring to their lives. How and why did you choose the individuals? What pearls of wisdom did they share that you had not considered?

4. Reflect on at least two things you learned from the “Issue of Power” video.

For years, Victoria has been torn between the desire to practice nursing in the vibrant,metropolitan city, or in her peaceful, mountainous hometown in the country with her family.

Case Study:

For years, Victoria has been torn between the desire to practice nursing in the vibrant,metropolitan city, or in her peaceful, mountainous hometown in the country with her family. She wonders how the two experiences differ. How do the demands differ? How does the technology differ? To learn more about these differences, she explores a variety of education scenarios, including computer-based virtual reality, simulations, and real life scenarios in both urban and rural settings. How do you think the demands and technologies differ? How can virtual reality, simulations, and real life scenarios be designed to provide optimal education for nursing students? How might they be integrated into the nursing school curriculum to increase patient, practitioner, and hospital safety?

Annotation is a crucial component of a good dataviz. It can turn a boring graphic into an interesting and insightful way to convey information. Dataviz is often separated in two main types: exploratory and explanatory analysis. Annotation is used for the second type.
Our current attention span for looking at things online is, on average, less than five seconds. So if you can’t grab someone’s attention within five seconds, you’ve likely lost your viewer. Adding accurate annotation can greatly help to grab audience attention. Use keywords, shapes, colors and other visuals to help them go straight to the point.
Annotation is a general concept, and hundreds of different ways to annotate a chart exist, depending on the context.
What are effective ways to leverage annotation in data visualizations? Provide 3 examples of how you would effectively use annotation in a data visualization. Describe how you would use them to keep viewers’ attention.
Discussion Length (word count): At least 250 words
References: At least three peer-reviewed, scholarly journal references.
