Ever since the introduction of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) refusal of payment for hospital acquired poor outcomes, nursing has gained visibility because these outcomes are nurse sensitive. Locate an article or website that refers to these nurse-sensitive outcomes and describe its findings.

 PS. Pls provide reference/citation

According to Mosby’s website (2010), The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)denied Medicare reimbursement for 11 conditions that were acquired in the hospitals and ban the…

Events Plus Inc. is a company that organizes seminars. Each year, it holds some120 seminars dealing with business management and public sector management themes.In order to encourage early enrollments to its seminars, Events Plus offers 20percent discounts to participants who register for a class up to six weeks in advance of thedate of the seminar offering. Because this is an attractive discount, popular classesusually experience heavy levels of sign-ups before the six-week pre-seminar cut-offpoint. Less popular courses experience weaker levels of sign-ups.Table 1 shows data collected on 110 seminar offerings that were tracked byEvents Plus over the past year and a half. Looking at the data, Events Plus finds that in 22cases, enrollments were so strong at the six-week marker that they covered all anticipatedseminar costs. Typically, these classes resulted in decent profits, although in two casesthe class had to be cancelled owing to instructor illness. In 33 cases, enrollments werereasonably good at the six-week marker and covered 70-95 percent of the seminar costs.The seminars usually experience some profit, although on ten occasions classes could notbe held owing to insufficient enrollments. In 55 cases, enrollments were weak at the sixweekmarker, covering less than 70 percent of anticipated seminar costs. Often, theseclasses did not break even and in a number of cases resulted in substantial losses. On 22instances, they were cancelled owing to poor enrollments.Break even at six-week marker?

Every day you have thoughts that lead you to say and do things, as well as make certain decisions. The principles that guide the decision that you make in life are called personal ethics. This week you’ve learned that sometimes a person’s personal code of ethics does not fall in line with the code of ethics used in his or her profession.

This week for your discussion:

  • Draft and share with the class your personal code of ethics.
  • Discuss how your behavior reflects these beliefs.
  • Where does your beliefs and view of your character come from? Why do you hold these beliefs?

Every case is different. It also depends who you ask. The more you try to rationalize on how a physician is liable for the sake of pointing fingers the more touch you lose of the issue at large. We are living in an era where medicine continues evolving on a day to day basis. Do I believe physicians should be held liable when accountable? Absolutely. If an event or early detection was unforeseeable, I do not believe a physician should be at fault. As previously stated, every case is different.

In order to properly diagnosed a patient, a physician must follow a protocol to make that diagnosis. The patient can have all the signs and symptoms of a particular condition, but then again differential diagnosis’ look very similar to one another hence the term “differential diagnosis.” A physician can never be 100% sure until appropriate diagnostics are completed. Nevertheless, there are patients that are dishonest with their physician. A 31 year old man comes to your office for an annual check-up. You take their vitals and discover the patient is hypertensive. Upon discovery, you proceed with the patients full history and current information. The physician then concludes that this patient has no familial history of cardiovascular diseases, maintains a proper diet, maintains a healthy fitness lifestyle, etc. You do not see why this patient is hypertensive. The physician then proceeds with prescribing a beta blocker to this patient. A week later the patient dies due to a hypertensive crisis. What happened? The patient never disclosed their cocaine abuse to their physician and the physician never ordered the labs to test for cocaine and other drug abuse. Should the physician be held liable? I would think so. A differential diagnosis must be found and all other possible conditions ruled out. Although the patients never fully disclososed their lifestyle, the physician should have order the appropriate test given the patient’s history.

In the case referenced in the textbook, the loss of chance policy would be very beneficial to both parties. It would ensure that the physician has done everything in their power to find a solution to the cause. Essentially, the physician must dig deeper and exclude every differential diagnosis possible until a solution is found.

Every audit firm has its approach for understanding a client’s internal control structure. Some firms use a standardized internal control questionnaire to evaluate controls that are in place whereas other firms do not rely on internal controls at all and plan their audits as if there are no controls in place or consider controls as not effective.

Evaluate each of these approaches to assess a client’s internal controls from an external auditor’s perception. Include in your evaluation:

  1. What effect, if any, does the size of the organization have on the decision?
  2. What are the auditing standard requirements for obtaining an understanding of internal controls?
  3. What are the differences, if any, in understanding internal controls for a public company versus a non-public company?

Every 4 milli-seconds an I/O device generates a 4000-byte block of data. This device is used with a computer whose processor runs at a clock rate of 3 GHz. The device can be configured to perform a DMA transfer of each 4000-byte data block and to generate an interrupt at the end of each DMA transfer. Setting up a DMA transfer on this system takes 500 cycles. Responding to each DMA interrupt and setting up the next transfer takes 2500 cycles.

As an alternative, the device can be configured to generate one byte of data at a time and generate an interrupt for each data byte.  Processing the interrupt associated with each byte and copying the byte from the device into memory takes 2010 cycles.

A) After configuring the device, how many cycles per second would be consumed for I/O using interrupt driven DMA block transfers?

B) After configuring the device, how many cycles per second would be consumed for I/O if, instead, interrupts are used to transfer data one byte at a time from the device at the same rate as with the DMA approach?

To be able to create departure times, it is important to first of all understand the waythe route works to avoid a scenario where no communication will be done or worse still,where the opposite…

Simulation

Evergreen College holds an endowment currently worth $700 million.  The Chief Investment Officer of the endowment has hired you to predict the performance of the endowment over the next 10 years. You are given a deterministic spreadsheet for this purpose, Evergreen.xls. The spreadsheet incorporates the following elements (you can assume that the spreadsheet is correct):

  • Annual growth in the endowment due to financial investments;
  • Contributions from a capital campaign;
  • An annual draw on the endowment for ongoing activities, where the size of the draw incorporates percentages of the previous year’s draw and the current endowment;
  • The cost, over 2 years, of a new science building. Spending and construction of the new building is conditional on meeting targets in the endowment and the capital campaign.

To improve the model you want to incorporate some measure of uncertainty. You have selected the following probability distributions:

  • Annual rate of return: Each year’s rate of return is lognormal with a mean of 8% and a standard deviation of 2%. Each year’s rate is independent of all other years. 
  • Total collected in capital campaign: triangular with a minimum of $100 million, most likely value of $300 million, and maximum of $450 million. 
  • Length of the capital campaign: The campaign could last 6, 7 or 8 years, with these probabilities:

Length of Campaign (years)                      Probability
