Step 1: Read the following scenario:
Hospitals collect data about both inpatients and outpatients on a daily basis. Statistics are used to monitor daily, weekly, and monthly trends. As one of the members of the Quality Committee, you are being asked to prepare a presentation to explain the hospital statistics that are most frequently analyzed at your organization.
Step 2: Through professional research and your own personal work experience, address the following items and create an 8- to 10-slide PowerPoint presentation using one of the following points as your focus of research:
Define the main types of statistics used within the healthcare field
What statistical analysis will you be using for your presentation
Why did you choose this particular method for presenting your data
Topics:
Inpatient Census and forecasting an annual census
Length of Stay and forecasting this annually
Hospital Death rate and forecasting this annually
Hospital Infection rate and forecasting this annually
Step 3: Compile your research and create a professional slideshow that adheres to APA guidelines. Your presentation must include the following:
8-10 slides
Title slide (not included in 8-10 slide count)
Reference/works cited slide (not included in 8-10 slide count)
Notes provided within the notes section of each slide
Proper APA, in-text support on each slide and within the notes section
At least three outside scholarly sources

What steps would you take to address the problem?
Select a problem that you have experienced or identified within a health care setting. What steps would you take to address the problem?
Write an APA paper that outlines the value of both health and economics.
For the average American healthcare will be the # 1-lifetime expense. However, healthcare also produces
wealth for individuals and communities both in jobs and production from healthy community members.
During the Covid-19 crisis, there has been debate on when to “re-open” the economy. This crisis brings into
light the clash between economics and health. Automakers have long faced and solved a similar problem:
how safe should a car be. Too safe and it would be too expensive for the average consumer to afford. Not
safe enough and more people will be killed in accidents. We know individuals will die in car accidents each
year yet we allow driving because of the immense value it brings to individuals and the economy.
Write an APA paper that outlines the value of both health and economics. At what point should
“safe enough” be acceptable. Some topics you may wish to address: what is the value of human life (some industries actually put a monetary value) Why are some dangers viewed as more “acceptable”.
View a feature film made between 1970 – 2000 you have not seen before (or will see later in this class) by a great director or featuring a great actor or actress.
Part 1: View a feature film made between 1970 – 2000 you have not seen before (or will see later in this class) by a great director or featuring a great actor or actress.
Just as you did in the first paper, comment on the specific film you saw. Pay particular attention to the screenplay, camerawork (cinematography) the editing (montage) and the sound (including music). for this paper, also address special effects. Again, as you did in the first paper, talk about what you like and what you dislike? Why do you like the things you like, and why do you dislike the things you dislike? Is the film a good film, or is it not?
Part 2: Now that you have commented on the specific film you viewed, see if you can draw some general conclusions about the work of the director and one of the main actors or actresses. Be sure to comment on the overall impression you had of the film, including how you see it as an example of the its genre and time period. Remember, this is film review based on your opinions and insights: do not repeat what you have learned by reading up on the film or the filmmaker.
Part 3: Go back to the “My Criteria for Quality in Film” page. Based on your viewing of this week’s film, add five new general conclusions. These statements should be numbered (6) through (10). Be sure to include all of the criteria you created for Paper One.
Assessment of a healthcare mobile app
Download a mobile app used either to manage a chronic illness or personal health goals and complete an assessment of the app. Address the following prompts.
I would like to pick App : Medisafe is an app that helps patients manage medications. It helps with dosage and reminds you when you need to take your meds, increasing adherence rates. The information can also be shared with your health care team and pharmacy.
Describe the mobile app and its purpose.
Why did you chose this app?
Are there many similar apps or does this app fill a niche with few competitors? How does it stand out?
What is the version you are evaluating?
What mobile devices is it compatible with?
Is the app stand alone or does it interface with other systems or databases?
Who designed it?
Who is it designed for?
Are their apparent equity issues present? (age, cognitive ability, race, ethnicity, English as a second language, etc…)
What are the stated benefits of the app and does it meet those benefits? Why or Why not?
What are the limitations of the app?
What challenges are present for integrating this type of consumer informatics with traditional healthcare?
How would you improve the app to make it more inclusive or improve its functionality?
Format Requirements
The assessment should include the required elements, follow the order of the prompts and be approximately 2 or 3 pages in no particular format.
Guiding Principles: The purpose of this exercise is to explore a single example of consumer health informatics, its benefits, limitations, potential equity issues and possible challenges integrating the mobile app with traditional healthcare that relies heavily on assessments documented by clinicians.

Is foreign aid for the rich or the poor?
You will investigate the topic “Is foreign aid for the rich or the poor?” in more depth and compare and contrast it across three different states in the world.
Your Research Paper must be comparative: use three States of the 193 States in the world to analyse a subject.
The paper must cover an issue of relevance to international law and include at least one international organization. Your paper must also include a range of peer-reviewed (e.g. 6-8) articles and relevant organizational reports.
would suggest you frame your paper around the Paris Declaration and Accra Framework for Action https://www.oecd.org/dac/effectiveness/parisdeclarationandaccraagendaforaction.htm. You can argue it has been valuable or ineffective.
If you use IDA as your organization, they may use some metrics on aid effectiveness that you can bring into your discussion. Alternatively, you may choose to look at progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals as a way to gauge success. In choosing three states to look at, I would imagine you could choose states that give generously, like Nordic states, or ones that tie aid to self interest (like the US, China and sometimes Canada). Alternatively, you could also focus your paper on receiver countries. There are no shortage of examples of expensive infrastructure projects funded by donor states that were of little value to receiver states!
Here is one resource for you to explore – https://www.ohchr.org/documents/issues/development/rtdbook/partiiichapter17.pdf
