Instructions:

This 2000 word written assignment has two distinct parts that you should address separately. Please use headings for each part.

You do not need to provide an introduction or a conclusion for the written assignment or any of the parts.

There are two family scenarios for you to choose from; select ONE scenario and use this for your entire assignment.

Part 1 – Nursing Care of the Family: Assessment (500 words)

 Create a genogram to visually depict the family’s structure. You must use the PowerPoint slide which will be supplied to you within the Assessment Folder on Learning@Griffith course site to create your genogram. Save the slide as a picture file (*.jpeg), and insert the picture into your document.

  •   Below the genogram, summarise the structure of the family to demonstrate your understanding of the family assessment findings.

Technology is plying a vital role in health care system for providing safe and quality care. Its not helping to collect and save data but also sharing the data between health care providers involved in patient care for effective outcomes of care. Technology is an integral part of health screening diagnosis, and treatment.
In my health organizations technology has become important part of patient care. We start using technology the time we step in the building as we scan our chip ID to enter in our locked dementia unit which enhance patient’s safety because only authorized staff can enter in the unit. Technology is used for electronic shift report which help us to keep track how was the patient’s condition in previous shift and if there is any big changes in patient’s health, any fall happens during previous shift hours. We use software to keep the track of medication administration every day for each patient. Technology is used to keep the records of each patient e.g. health records, history, physicals, any incident, admission or discharge records, any information related to patient are recorded, using the online software which makes it so much easier for all staff who is authorized to use information. Pharmacy can check the medication orders for the patients and recommend accordingly which is only possible because of technology, the moment we get orders it is verified with the pharmacy, and medication orders are processed faster than ever, and the medication was sent by pharmacy on time without any delay. We can imagine if there is no such technology how long it will take to get one order and then how long it will take to reach pharmacy and get medication. Technology helps to process the things faster, which makes it possible to provide the best possible care to the patients.

Digital innovations have radically transformed the healthcare system. Information technology plays a growing role in the delivery of healthcare and helps in addressing the health problems and challenges encountered by clinicians and other health professionals in practice (Campanella, Lovato, Marone, Fallacara, & Mancuso, 2015). Electronic health records (EHRs) have been widely applied in the United States to document and gather patient information. An electronic health record refers to a systematic electronic collection of patients’ health information such as their medical history, medication orders, laboratory results, medical procedures, vital signs, radiology reports, and physician and nurse notes. EHRs also help healthcare professionals to make sound clinical decisions as EHRs also include decision support systems (DSS) which provide up-to-date medical knowledge, reminders, and other actions (Campanella, Lovato, Marone, Fallacara, & Mancuso, 2015).
Evidence supports that EHRs can improve the quality of healthcare, increase time efficiency, improve adherence to guidelines, and reduce medication errors and adverse drug events (Campanella, Lovato, Marone, Fallacara, & Mancuso, 2015). Consequently, can also reduce costs associated with medical errors, adverse drug events, and time inefficiency. Considerable reduction in costs occurs when the quality of patient care is improved and patient harm reduced. Adherence to guidelines by healthcare professionals has a direct impact on the use of resources and the cost of healthcare as DSS supports clinicians in clinical decision making (Miriovsky, Shulman, & Abernethy, 2012). This reduces medical errors, adverse drug events, and resource wastage. HER guidelines are promoted to decrease variability in clinical practice and the use of ineffective therapies in clinical practice. The use of appropriate information technology in healthcare delivery improves the efficiency of hospitals as benefits exceed operational costs.

Statement on Humanistic Psychology As a prospective humanistic psychologist, you will often be asked, “What is humanistic psychology?” To prepare yourself for this eventuality and more importantly, to synthesize what you have learned about humanistic psychology, prepare a written statement. It may be helpful to think of this as the “dinner party question and answer” – i.e., when you tell someone you are attending a graduate school with a humanistic orientation, and they ask you what that means, think about how you will respond succinctly and meaningfully. Your statement should contain four parts: Personal Meaning, Clinical Psychology, Applications to a Broader World View including Social Justice, and Humanistic Psychology and Its View on __________. The section on personal meaning should include what humanistic psychology means to you. Consider how the tenets and concepts are relevant to you. The section on clinical psychology should refer to how humanistic psychology views humankind and approaches clinical work. The third section, on a broader world view, should describe how the tenets and concepts central to humanistic psychology can be used to promote social justice and a respectful, appreciative stance toward all of humankind. Chapters 37 and 46 of the Schneider, Pierson, and Bugental text and Chapter 12 of the Goble text may be helpful sources for this section. For the fourth section, choose a concept or movement that is of particular interest to you and describe the perspective of this concept/movement from the viewpoint of humanistic psychology. (Examples include but are not limited the following: multiculturalism, Black Lives Matter, resilience, LGBTQ+ concerns, feminism, authenticity.) This paper should be written in APA style, and the length should be 6-8 pages, excluding references and title page. A minimum of 4 sources should be used, and at least 1 of these should be a journal article.

In this Assignment, you will culminate one course outcome by demonstrating an ability to make strategic business decisions:
MT460-3: Formulate strategic business decisions from a management, leadership and organizational design perspective.
Strategy is often a complex puzzle that requires both leadership and management oriented decision-making, critical thinking and problem-solving abilities. Strategic thinking, in general, requires the understanding of intricate design structures and networks within an organization. Choosing the appropriate strategic approach can be a daunting task, requiring business acumen and professional competencies that leaders and managers possess, such as professional communication (verbal, written, body language), planning, organization, analysis, reasoning skills, persistence, time management, perseverance, and much more. To meet the challenges in this Assignment, you must be ready to use a combination of such professional competencies and business acumen to formulate strategic business decisions from a leadership, management and organizational design perspective. Essentially, you are analyzing a business to construct a business case.
To complete this Assignment, your professor will provide a list of industries and companies. You will choose two companies from the list that operate within one of the industries provided. You will assume the role of Chief Operating Officer (CEO) for one of your chosen companies, and the other company will be a major competitor. In a narrated PowerPoint presentation, your goal is to make strategic decisions from a management, leadership, and organizational design perspective by meeting the following criteria:
1. Identify two companies that operate within the same industry from the list of industries and companies that your Professor has provided. You will assume the role of CEO for one of your chosen companies, and the other company will be a competitor that operates in the same industry with similar products. As the CEO, you will make strategic decisions from a leadership or a management perspective. Your audience is the executive management team of your organization.
2. As the CEO, provide a thorough synopsis of your chosen company by introducing the brand, industry, products, target market, etc. Be sure to use leadership abilities to inspire your audience through your communication of this information.
3. From a management perspective, provide a high-level synopsis of the organizational design of your chosen company.
4. From a management perspective, provide a thorough environmental analysis on the state of your chosen industry and your company’s market position within the industry.
5. From a management perspective, analyze the financial condition of your chosen company.
6. From a management perspective, conduct a thorough analysis on your competitor to explain its market position and competitive advantages within your chosen industry.

8. From a leadership perspective, explain how your chosen generic strategy positions your company within the market by building competitive advantages against your chosen competitor company.
9. From a management perspective, provide reasoning on the potential for your company to achieve competitive advantage in the market based on lower costs. If your company is not positioned as a low-cost leader, explain why not. If it is positioned as a low-cost leader, explain why it leads to sustainable competitive advantage.
10. From a management perspective, provide reasoning on the potential for your company to achieve competitive advantage in the market based on differentiating the company’s products from the offerings of rivals. If your company is not positioned as a differentiator, explain why not. If it is positioned as a differentiator, explain why it leads to sustainable competitive advantage.
11. From a management perspective, provide reasoning on the potential for your company to achieve competitive advantage in the market based on being a best-cost provider. If your company is not positioned as a best-cost provider, explain why not. If it is positioned as a best-cost provider, explain why it leads to sustainable competitive advantage.
12. From a management perspective, formulate and explain your company’s offensive or defensive strategy to improve its market position in the next year.
13. From a leadership perspective, design a plan to position your chosen company to be a first mover, a fast follower, or a late mover to ensure competitive advantage.
