Case Study – Breaking Down The “Silo” Between Two Ancillary Departments

Case Study – Breaking Down The "Silo" Between Two Ancillary Departments

 The radiology department is having an issue with patient  transportation not transporting patients back to their rooms after their  procedures have been performed. Sometimes patients wait up to 30  minutes, which causes crowding and other issues for the radiology staff.  The patient transport unit says there is inconsistent communication  with radiology about patients who are ready to be moved.

Write a 2 page paper (in APA format) which:

 

  • Identifies some reasons for the inconsistent communication
  • Explains how this issue may impact the quality of both services
  • Determines what data both departments could share in order to monitor patient transport
  • Lists some benefits of the two departments sharing patient transport data

 

Healthcare Quality

Healthcare Quality

Imagine that you are the clinic manager of an urgent care center. Recently, your center has seen an increase in complaints regarding long wait times, inadequate or incomplete information from staff during visits, and the relatively small number of insurance types accepted at the facility.

Write a 2-3 page paper in which you:

 

  1. Examine at least three (3) examples of quality initiatives that could increase patient satisfaction and potentially reduce healthcare cost. Support your response with examples of the successful application your chosen quality initiatives.
  2. Defend your position on the decision to accept Medicare or Medicaid as potential pay sources for your urgent care center. Provide support with at least two (2) examples that illustrate your position.

 

Dissemination Of Knowledge

Dissemination Of Knowledge

Please use creditable references. references must be scholarly and no more than 5 years old. Also no plagirism . Must be 100 % original . No previous information from another source. Please cite sources correctly. Must have at least 2 references. Please answer all question within the post . Each one must be throughly answered.

Select either direct or indirect dissemination of information and knowledge. Using three (3) of the six (6) basic elements, (i.e., the source, the recipient, the relationship between them, the knowledge to be transferred, the method of transfer, and the organizational context within which transfer occurs), suggest one (1) problem that may occur in each element. Justify your response. •Compare and contrast the major similarities and difference between tacit and explicit knowledge. Then, determine the two (2) most effective and the two (2) most ineffective dissemination mechanisms in a virtual learning environment for each type of knowledge. Justify your response.

 

Evaluating Internal Employees

Evaluating Internal Employees

How might your performance evaluation differ if it were conducted by a friend, a colleague, a competitor, or a supervisor? The evaluation procedures used by organizations can be very subjective. To help prevent individual biases from determining the fate of employees, many organizations have initiated multirater instruments such as 360-degree assessments and the 9-box grid.

To understand how multirater systems are carried out, consider the proceedings of a courtroom. Rather than a judge singlehandedly deciding your fate, you have a jury composed of various supervisors, executives, colleagues, and sometimes even customers. The information from this “jury” is then assimilated into an employee’s internal management profile. This allows the organization’s succession planning team to then carefully review these profiles to identify, groom, and track the progress of high-potential employees.

For this week’s Discussion, evaluate the use of employee profiles. In addition, consider how multirater instruments such as 360-degree assessments and 9-box grids contribute to management profiles and internal grooming options. To begin this Discussion, review the article titled “Employee Feedback Technologies in the Human Performance System,” located in this week’s Learning Resources.

Post by Day 3 a cohesive and scholarly response based on your readings and research this week that addresses the following:

  • Evaluate the use of employee profiles.
    • How can employee profiles be used to determine succession candidates?
      • In what other ways can such information be used to increase an organization’s sustainable competitive advantage?
    • Explain how 360-degree assessments, 9-box grids, and similar performance reviews are used in profiling employees.
      • Which method might be more applicable in today’s fast-paced business environment? 
      • Which industries and job functions would be more suited for these types of assessments? Why or why not?
      • Are there any circumstances where assessment techniques are not necessary or are even possibly detrimental?
  • Assess internal grooming options used in succession planning.
    • How would you use the information gained from evaluation instruments and employee profiles to match potential successors with effective grooming options?

Respond by Day 5 to two or more of your colleag

Assignment 1: Discussion: Attributes of God

Assignment 1: Discussion: Attributes of God

What, or who, is God?

This was the first topic of Christian systematic theology.

This doctrine attempted to answer the following questions:

  • Can God be known at all? If so, how?
  • Can God be described?
  • Are there qualities or attributes, which God must possess in order to be God? If so, what are they?

Early Christian theologians identified the following as attributes of God:

Benevolence

Immateriality

Omnipotence

Eternity

Immutability

Omnipresence

Goodness

Infinity

Omniscience

Please select one of the attributes above to discuss.

In your initial posting, address the following questions:

  • What is this attribute? How does it describe God?
  • Are there any problems associated with this attribute?
  • Which other attributes are compatible with this attribute? Why or why not?
