...Patient-Centered Health Care Home Many people in the United States do not have access to high quality primary care. There is substantial evidence indicating that sufficient access to high quality primary care results in lower overall health care costs and lower use of higher cost services, such as specialists, emergency rooms, and inpatient care. A large amount of the nation’s dollars are spent on health care. This large budget affects providers, patients, employers, and payers such as Medicaid, Medicare, and private insurers. This is a primary concern in many states including, Minnesota. There are significant gaps in the quality of health care that patients in the United States receive. The current health care payment and delivery system is particularly poor at providing care for people with chronic conditions. As a result of these factors, policy makers debated over proposals that can actually be effective. Some of these proposals aimed for reducing cost, focusing on patient, and improving quality of care. An example of a proposal that focused on patient-centered care and increased quality of care is the creation and introduction of Patient-Centered Health Care Home (PCHCH), also known as “Medical Home.” The introduction of the PCHCH in Minnesota will increase patients’ accessibility to health care services, give them power to be involved in decisions regarding their care, have continuity of care with their physicians, prevent duplication of services, reduce health care cost...

...Running Head: RESEARCH STRATEGY PAPER 1 Research Strategy Paper Justin Godbolt GEN 200 May 30, 2011 RESEARCH STRATEGY PAPER 2 Time Management is a difficult task for me in my everyday life. This problem seems to affect almost everyone because there seems to be so much stuff to do and not enough time to do it. I will try to develop a strategy to overcome the issue and resolve the problem in regards to time management. Time management affects many individuals in today’s society. According to Wild and Neville 2008, time management means investing time to make time, so we can get more done and have the freedom to do more of the things we enjoy doing. In conducting my research, I chose to use the University of Phoenix online library to obtain articles that would provide reliable solutions to help maintain effective time management skills. While using the online library for my research I would obtain information that is reliable and accurate. These articles I will be reviewing will help me learn how to managing time more effectively. After collecting my articles, I will evaluate the information researched and obtained to help assist in developing time management skills. Time Management involves analyzing how your time is spent. Most individuals have a hard time trying to balance a job, school, parenting, or other personal obligations. According to Adair 2003, he discussed ten principles of time management...

...Leadership SMART Goal Sherri Love Chamberlain School of Nursing Christle Shavers NR 447 Collaborative Health Care Team-building Leadership Core healthcare competence According to the Institute of Medicine, patient-centered is “health care that establishes a partnership among practitioners, patients, and their families (when appropriate) to ensure that decisions respect patients’ wants, needs, and preferences and that patients have the education and support they need to make decisions and participate in their own care” (2001). There are many attributes that can be associated with patient-centered care. First, there is the requirement for education and shared knowledge; second is the requirement for the involvement of a patient’s family and friends; and third is collaboration and management of a care team. Since patient-centered care connotes healthcare that is solely focused on the needs of the patient, there is need for nurses and other health care providers to be sensitive to the spiritual dimensions of care as well as to other non-medical attributes of human nature. The patient should be respected and his needs and preferences should form the core of the decisions made by health care providers. As a requirement, and to streamline care, there is need for information to flow from the experts to the patients and to the family and be accessible to the relevant parties. Leadership SMART goal I will learn how to handle a patient’s members...

...(3) state that "ethics are principles of action based on a commonly accepted system of values," thus relating professional ethics to social values. The APA code of ethics (1, p. 49) states that a cardinal obligation of the psychologist "is to respect the integrity and protect the welfare of the person with whom he is working." This is clearly an expression of the value of the individual in our society, as is recognized in Principle 1.13: "The psychologist should express in his professional behavior a firm commitment to those values which lie at the foundation of a democratic society, such as freedom of speech, freedom of research, and respect for the integrity of the individual" (1, p. 10). Philosophy of Counseling. From ethics and values to philosophy is only a short step. A philosophy is an integration of values, usually resulting in statements of postulates and assumptions, or principles.

...Perspectives Paper In the world of psychology there are many perspectives, a few which will be looking at is of John B. Watson, B. F. Skinner and also that of Edward C. Tolman. They will also be contrasted and compared to each other in their views as to regarding how each perspective relates to the modern-day psychology. You will see the differences in their perspectives as well as what motivated them to come up with them. Each man had ideals of his own and ways that they expressed them and these were just some of those ways. They were behaviorist in their own right and their ideals to expand on their knowledge and to help society better itself come to pass with those ideals. Starting with John B. Watson, his perspectives were centered on classical conditioning. He believed that behaviorism was the way to go. It was the new movement. He believed that introspection forms no essential part of methods, nor is the scientific value of its data dependent upon readiness with which lend themselves to interpretation in terms of consciousness (Goodwin, (2008). He felt more comfortable around animals than he did humans when it came to studying psychology so he settled for studying functionalist psychology, especially comparative psychology. He started out his first study with rat mazes and the hypothesis about kinesthetic sense. It was done in 1907, in which they would remove parts of the rat’s senses in some, like the eyes, middle of the ears, whiskers, or...

... REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE 2.0 Introduction A review of related literature reveals considerable research on economic education as it is presently undertaken, as well as research on the characteristics of today’s instructors and students, all with implications for changes for the future of the discipline. 2.1 Economic Literacy One of the goals of economic education is fostering economic literacy among students, therefore, it is important to define economic literacy and relate this goal back to instructor’s style of teaching economics as well as what economic literacy means. One definition of economic literacy is the ability to go beyond classroom learning and to use economic concepts in one’s own life, even years after being in the classroom ( Salemi, 2005). 2.2 Economic Education Economics education involves the use of appropriate teaching methodology in the understanding of economics as a concept and facilitates the in-depth residual knowledge of the learners in order for them to contribute meaningfully to the growth and development of the society. Economics education involves imparting knowledge effectively by making use of learners centered approaches to promote learner self confidence in tackling economic problems (NOU,2012). 2.3 Present State of Economic Education There has been a great deal of research on economic education. Much of the research has focused on the effectiveness of economics courses, which in turn has engendered discussions on what the...

...Management of Organizational Behavior The Servant Leader 2/16/2016 I. Introduction This essay will describe the true meaning of servant leadership. How the servant leader is inspired and performed his/her job within the health care organization? The paper will also inform readers of how each individual can unleash the servant within described by Larry Spears in his book “Reflections on Leadership.” Everyone has a deep need for serving, sometimes adults find it very difficult to unleash this desire to serve. Having worked in a large Hospital for over five years, it is easy to see why many people get frustrated and depart the health care industry. There are many complicated situations that happen working in healthcare. Throughout the majority of these situations between registered nurses, patient care technicians, and some doctors; there are solutions for dealing with most of those problems. Compassion, empathy, trustworthiness, faithfulness, respect, honesty, integrity, and rapport are all words that will be used frequently within the body of the paper. In my personal quest to better understand how to work well with people in a highly stressful environment as in healthcare, I begin to do my own research on process improvement and better systems that works in the hospitals. I turned my mind to various leadership books on healthcare and process improvements in the hospital setting. Some of the books I read was tremendously inspiring, interesting, as well...
