Portfolio Project: Legal and Ethical Dilemma Case Study Evaluation

Your Portfolio Project provides an opportunity to evaluate a real-world ethical dilemma from the perspective of the healthcare/hospital administrator. You will use your skills and knowledge of ethics and health law as well as role-playing to create a postmortem evaluation plan for prevention of future situations to present to your Senior Leadership team and the Board of Governors. A postmortem analysis is performed after the fact to evaluate the situation and identify a plan for prevention of future incidents.

I’ve chosen Case#6 In re Mary O’ Conner on end-of-life on pages 297-298 in Contemporary Issues in Healthcare Law and Ethics. Please see attached PDF’s file.

Attachment

The development of attachment is a process that children go through, which families and early care educators can have a positive impact on.  

Chapter 2 of the text and Nancy Balaban’s article, “Easing the Separation Process for Infants, Toddlers, and Families” explain the four types of attachment:  

1. Secure attachment

2. Insecure/avoidant attachment

3. Insecure/resistant/ambivalent attachment

4. Disoriented/disorganized attachment.

Select one of the four attachment styles above. 

Imagine that a child in your program is exhibiting attachment issues in this type of attachment. 

For this discussion, explain how you might communicate with parents to help foster a positive attachment in the early care and education program. 

Your response should address the following:

a. Characteristics of this type of attachment to inform parents

b. Shared communication plan to engage parents

c. Suggestions that you would offer to foster a positive attachment in the classroom

We have identified three approaches for estimating project time and costs: the Top-down Approach, the Bottom-up Approach, and a Hybrid: Phase Estimating Approach. Within each approach, there are various estimating methods used to determine project time and costs, and each estimating method has positive and negative features. You are to choose one of the Top-down Approach methods (consensus, ratio, apportion, function point, or learning curves), one of the Bottom-up Approach methods (template, parametric, and range estimating), and the Hybrid: Phase Estimating Approach. Compare your two selected methods of estimating time and cost to each other. Along with a comparison to the Hybrid Phase regarding positive and negative features of each, create hypothetical scenarios in which each method would be the best alternative to use, and explain why. Use at least one peer-reviewed source beyond the text, course content, and course readings to support your position.

1,000 word essay (four typewritten, double-spaced pages) about the Essay 1 Topic: How did Adolf Hitler (1889-1945) use the German Workers Party (1919-1945) to gain power via oratory, propaganda and violence? Make sure you include this information in your essay, but do not number this information; it should be in paragraph form. When did Mr. Hitler first come into contact with the German Workers Party? How did he rise to power in the German Workers Party? What future Nazi officials did Mr. Hitler meet via the German Workers Party? What is propaganda, and why did Mr. Hitler determine immediately that he would need money for propaganda in order to gain power? What is a putsch, and what was the Beer Hall Putsch? What did the German Workers Party become?
