...HCS/483 July 18, 2011 Dr. Michael Solomon IT Project Implementation Failures “Many projects have been subject to considerable delay, increasing budget deficits, and in some cases, severely negative impacts on the quality and effectiveness of care” (Murray et al, 2011, p. 2). Memorial Health System (MHS) is dealing with lack of candor, lack of belief in the project, project complexity, inability to anticipate short-term disruptions, and lack of technology stability and maturity while implementing a clinician provider order entry (CPOE) system (University of Phoenix, n.d.). These potential failures can be avoided with proper planning and integration. Not realizing the complexity of the project is a failure that MHS made while implementing the CPOE program (Wager, Lee, & Glaser, 2009). MHS has eight hospitals with a minimum of 2,600 beds (University of Phoenix, n.d.). An alternate route to implementing into all eight sites at once would be to select one site to implement the program into. The needs at each site may be different due to locality and patients, so it would benefit all involved to handle each site separately. Lack of belief in the project is the next failure that MHS has dealt with (Wager, Lee, & Glaser, 2009). MHS has a lack of full support from the stakeholders (University of Phoenix, n.d.). “Projects that are viewed as illegitimate by a large portion of the people in an organization rarely succeed” (Wager, Lee, & Glaser, 2009, p. 404). At this point it...

... The company is based in the United States (US) with operations in eight other countries around the world. The US accounts for 70% of Alumina’s market share. Alumina has business interests in automotive components and manufacture packaging materials, bauxite mining, and Alumina refining and smelting. The company falls under the jurisdiction of Region 6 of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) (University of Phoenix, 2010). Recognizing and Minimizing Tort and Regulatory Risk Plan Companies and organizations such as Alumina, Inc. have corporate governances that require them to operate their businesses under government rules, regulations and boundaries. The rules and regulations have been authorized and enacted by major legislation, which are enacted by Congress and enforceable by laws. Minimizing the risk of tort liability is the goal of every organization and company. Five years ago Alumina was in violation of environmental discharge norms in a routine EPA compliance evaluation inspection. The EPA ordered a cleaned up and Alumina complied right away. Now, the case of negligence starts. The government places a high level the importance on the preservation of the environment and enforces environmental regulations. Alumina has to come up with a risk management plan that will incorporate governances that will prevent the organization from unethical behavior, potentially damaging lawsuits, and some preferred ways of handling certain legal situations. Alumina has...

...Studies: Knowledge is the essence of smart thinking. No matter how much raw intelligence you have, you are not going to succeed at solving complex problems without knowing a lot. That's why we spend the first 20 (or more) years of our lives in school. Robert Bjork and fellow PT blogger Nate Kornell have explored some of the study habits of college students in a 2007 paper in Psychonomic Bulletin & Review. Research on memory provides a number of important suggestions about the most effective ways to study. One of the most important tips is that students should study by testing themselves rather than just reading over the material. It is also important to study over a period of days rather waiting until the last minute to study. Kornell and Bjork's studies suggest that only about 2/3 of college students routinely quiz themselves, and a majority of students study only one time for upcoming exams. Of course, guidelines from memory research come from studies in idealized circumstances. Researchers bring participants (many of whom are college students) into a lab and ask them to learn material. Perhaps the recommendations drawn from these studies are not that helpful for real students dealing with real courses. To address this question, Marissa Hartwig and John Dunlosky related the study habits of college students to their grade point average (GPA) in a 2012 paper in Psychonomic Bulletin & Review. They asked students about a number of study...

...What are the roles and responsibilities involved in system implementation? How did the process described in the case study fail to include the fundamental activities identified in Ch. 8 of Health Care Information Systems? The process that was used regarding the Memorial Health System case was not thought out properly. In this case study, the fundamental activities that were not included are workflow and analysis of the system. One thing that the organization failed to do was to review and evaluate the current system before they tried to implement a new one. To determine what would have been needed, they should have had employees sit down and analyze to make it easier. An analysis of the system is one of the most important things that need to be done. The eight hospitals that had launched this new system had started it on the same day. Like everything else, new systems always have flaws. The failure to analyze lead to the lack of end-user training which made the requirements that were missed more obvious. Even though they did an analysis, it wasn’t a proper one. Doctors and nurses could not log on to enter their orders which lead to patients waiting for their medication and tests. Ch. 16 of Health Care Information Systems describes the causes of project failure. What are at least five indicators of project failure that manifest themselves in the case study? Within the Memorial Health CPOE (clinician provider order entry) system implementation, there were many indicators...

...Continuing Academic Success Continuing academic success goes further than just being in good standing within a university, or showing adequate progress towards a degree. It also includes creating your own goals that you need to work towards while continuing your education. Whether those goals are purely academically based or those goals pertain to what you want from your schooling to better your career and life, that decision is up to you. In the following paper I will share with you my own personal struggles with continuing my academic success, and the resources I used from my first course at the University of Phoenix to overcome those struggles. My Setbacks with Continuing Academic Success When I started the long journey of returning back to school I had many fears running through my head that made me feel that I may fail on this path of bettering myself. I had a fear of reading. Now that may sound strange, but I have always found focusing on reading a book challenging. I could read the words, and most of the times understand them, but my attention to the book would always drift. I had fears of staying on task and completing assignments on time. I felt that my life may be too busy to go back to school. I’ve always had the fear of writing papers. I’ve prided myself on being able to speak well and sound educated, but to actually sit down and write a professional paper scared me and made me feel ignorant towards a basic step in the academic process. In the past I have also...

...take place June 15 with the intent of having all the new hires working by July. On May 15, Monica Carrolls, the Operation Supervisor, contacted Carl about coordinating new hire issues such as manuals, drug tests, and policy booklets. Carl found while reviewing the new trainee files that several problems are present. Some of the applications were incomplete, drug screening was not complete, and orientation manuals were incomplete or missing pages. Furthermore, a reservation by technology services for the training room is present throughout the month of June. (University of Phoenix, 2006) Key Problems Three problems are readily apparent; employee applications are incomplete or missing data, three training manuals are currently on hand with 15 needed and the training room is reserved for the month of June. Without further investigation, root-cause analysis is mere speculation. Based on the facts presented in the case study, this author has determined several root-cause factors, which may have contributed to this calamity. These root causes stem from two sources, Carl Robins and ABC, Inc. Carl could have overstated his qualifications prior to hiring upon which a hiring decision was rendered or does he have poor work ethics and incompetent. Further, based on the timeline presented, it appears that Carl is disorganized, found wanting...

... * ECO-365 * APRIL 14th, 2014 Joe Krupka * * * * * * * * * * Introduction Microeconomics involves the study of individual economic agents and individual markets. Macroeconomics involves the study of economic aggregates. Supply and demand is the amount of a commodity, product, or service available and the desire of buyers for it, considered as factors regulating its price. The concepts were well displayed during the supply and demand simulation. For example, the competition that Oakridge Builders provided was a microeconomic concept. The same can be said for GoodLife having a monopoly on selling apartments. Economic competition takes place in markets--meeting grounds of intending suppliers and buyers. Typically, a few sellers compete to attract favorable offers from prospective buyers. This is why it is a microeconomic concept. * A monopoly is an enterprise that is the only seller of a good or service. In the absence of government intervention, a monopoly is free to set any price it chooses and will usually set the price that yields the largest possible profit. Just being a monopoly need not make an enterprise more profitable than other enterprises that face competition: the market may be so small that it barely supports one enterprise (University of Phoenix, 2010). * A price ceiling is a legally mandated maximum price. The purpose of a price ceiling is to keep the price of a good below the market equilibrium price...

...products, it is useful to reduce all the variables in the marketing mix to four basic ones: * Product * Place * Promotion * Price In order to create the most effective marketing mix, the product has to have the right features. Keep in mind that Product is not limited to physical goods. For example, the Product of H & R Block is a completed tax form (University of Phoenix, 2011). Place is concerned with all the decisions involved in getting the “right” product to the target market’s Place. This happens through a channel of distribution. A channel of distribution is any series of firms (or individuals) that participate in the flow of products from producer to final user or consumer (University of Phoenix, 2011). Distribution decisions include market coverage, channel member selection, logistics, and levels of service (“Quickmba”, 1999-2010). Promotion is the business of communicating with customers. It will provide information that will assist them in making a decision to purchase a product or service (The Times 100 Business Case Studies, 1995-2013). According to University of Phoenix, 2011, promotion is concerned with telling the target market or others in the channel of distribution about the “right” product. Sometimes promotion is focused on acquiring new customers, and sometimes it is focused on retaining current customers. Promotion includes personal selling. Personal...
