2. HIPAA/Confidentiality: Provide an overview of HIPAA and the level of confidentiality that the patient can expect from Three Mountains Regional Hospital.

3. Release of Information: Explain the process for a patient to obtain either copies or sections of their medical records. Discuss that information cannot be shared without their express permission.

4. Privacy Pledge: Craft a privacy pledge statement informing the patient that they can trust that their information will remain private.

The brochure that you will create should be a tri-fold design with two pages (the first for the outside and the second for the inside). Draw attention to your brochure by using well-placed art, an easy to read design, and use of color.

APA formatting, and proper grammar, punctuation, and form required

 Depending on one’s personal experience in obtaining health care, or one’s view of the role of physicians in society, of law as a tool for social change, of the scope of medical ethics, or of the United States’ place in the broader global community, the no-duty principle might seem appropriate, irresponsible, or downright wrong. Imagine you are traveling in a country where socialized medicine is the legal norm, and your discussion with a citizen of that country turns to the topic of your countries’ respective health systems. When asked, how will you account for the fact that health care is far from being a fundamental right rooted in American law? 

 Team-Building and Communications Proposal You have just been hired as a consultant to the chief executive officer (CEO) of a health care organization. Your duty is to improve the management tools and practices needed to work in teams, build cross-functional teams, and facilitate collaborative decisionmaking. You need to identify elements found in an effective health care work group and identify barriers to communication that may cause conflict within a group. Suggest some types of communication techniques that can be used to avoid conflicts within a team. You need to address ways to improve communication among departments in an organization to avoid conflict. Finally, identify strategies that may be used to avoid recurring conflicts and ways a leader can prevent conflict within the team in the organization. Based upon what you have learned in this class, prepare a 1,250–1,500-word paper in which you propose a quality improvement plan to present to the CEO addressing these issues. Cite at least four references to validate your proposal. Prepare this Assignment according to the APA guidelines. 

prepare for this Discussion: Review this week’s Learning Resources, paying particular attention to the AMA article “Informed Consent” and Chapter 7 in the Judson and Harrison textbook. Download the Week 3 Discussion Scenarios (located in the Learning Resources). Choose two scenarios for your Discussion

Post a comprehensive response to the following: For each scenario, decide if informed consent was obtained properly. If it was, then explain why you think it was. Be specific. If it was not, then explain where in the informed consent process a procedure was not followed. Be specific. For each scenario, explain how you would improve the informed consent process to make sure consent to treat a patient is obtained correctly. Be specific and provide examples. Imagine yourself as a health provider (like the providers in the scenarios). What would you do to make sure that informed consent to treat is always done correctly?

Scenario 1:

John is scheduled for an outpatient hip replacement. He meets with the surgeon one week prior to the surgery. The surgeon explains the procedure and then reviews the risks and benefits with John. On the day of the surgery, while John is being prepped for the procedure, a nurse walks in to obtain his consent to treat. To verify, the nurse asks John if the doctor explained the procedure, including the risks and benefits? John says “no.”  

Scenario 3:

Juan is scheduled for a laparoscopic Lap-Band placement surgery. He meets with the surgeon one week prior to the surgery. The surgeon explains the surgical procedure and how the Lap-Band is used. She asks Juan if he has any questions? Juan says “no.” On the day of the surgery, while Juan is being prepped, a nurse walks in to obtain his consent to treat. To verify, the nurse asks Juan if the doctor explained the procedure, including the risks and benefits. Juan looks surprised and replies, “what risks?”

Peer-reviewed journals are scholarly journals that publish original research or writing. According to a Cornell University website, (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.”The main purpose of a scholarly journal is to report on original research or experimentation in order to make such information available to the rest of the scholarly world.” Thus for this and all future assignments, be sure that the article you select is an actual research article rather than simply a literature review or general interest paper.

Go to the Hunt Library, (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. and use EAGLEsearch to find an article on a topic of interest that falls within the subject area(s) of your degree program. Be sure to select the “Scholarly & Peer-Review” filter option on the left of the screen (following the initial display of results). Using the research cycle in Chapter 1 of the text, describe how the selected article outlines/describes each part of the cycle, focusing on the research methodology. If it is lacking in a part of the cycle, tell what is missing and what could be done to fill the gap. Your post should be approximately 500 words.

Note;  aviation related research.

Pick two of the types of criminal acts discussed in the chapter, and conduct an internet search for cases in which a security professional was charged with those particular offenses. Explain in detail the facts of the case, why you selected it and the outcome of the case.
