...We Can But Should We: Quick Response Codes Quick Response (QR) Codes What is a Quick Response code? It’s a two- dimensional matrix/bar code. QR codes can provide a wide range of information to patients or family members on ones condition, or treatment. QR codes in turn can assist EMTs, or other healthcare providers with information about an individual such as allergies, blood type, DNR, emergency contacts, as well as other vital information that pertains to an individual (QR Codes in Education, n.d.). QR codes can be scanned or decoded by using quick response software or a scanner to access an individual’s information. With this easy process of accessing information it allows healthcare providers to be more efficient and more attentive with care provided to patients. Impact on Patient Care Delivery In the healthcare field time is of the essence when it comes to life and death situations. With QR codes medical responders are able to access important health information on individuals which in turn makes crucial health decisions simple. For example let’s say an emergency responder comes upon an individual who is not responsive (a diabetic but unknown to responders) as a result medical history such as allergies, medical problems or even current use of medication is now unknown. If this individual has a QR code then the responder is able to access all medical information allowing the responder to provide the best care possible without any major difficulties.

...We Can But Should We Chamberlin College of Nursing NR361: Info Systems in Healthcare Abstract In this paper we begin with a short history of the Quick Reaction code (QR code) and move onto the QR code in marketing and how it can be similarly used in the healthcare field from advertising to take-home monitoring equipment for patients. We discuss a study conducted by Lin C, Tsai F, Tsai W, Wen H, & Hu M., 2012 and how the use of QR codes has help to decrease wait times in the pharmacy and actually increase accuracy of dispensing correct medications. After discourse on personal information we will end this paper with a few healthcare related ethical concerns. We come to the conclusion that QR codes could be beneficial to the public and private sectors of healthcare. Quick reaction codes (QR code) had their beginning in auto manufacturing plants in Japan in 1994; QR codes were designed to help track automobiles during the manufacturing process (Gottesman, & Baum, 2013). Like many other technologies, when shortly after their initial production, QR codes were found to be useful in many other areas than just automobile manufacturing. QR codes have recently been heavily used for marketing. The QR code is able to hold a significant amount of information and anyone with the correct tool to read the code is able to extract this information such as a website or such that for a consumer could lead to a shoe store, a hair salon, or even an electronics store. From auto manufacturing...

They also make the audience question many important things on how we should treat our animals. Another good point they state in the article is if we do decide to give animal rights will this affect the way we live? This topic is very iffy because we can side on either sides based on reasoning.

...expecting people to be perfect, you can like them for who they are.” Relationships can be categorized into formal, informal and professional. A formal relationship thrives on officialdom. Nothing outside the rules and regulations are tolerated. Everything thrives on paper. An informal relationship does not operate with strict rules of doing things and behaving.

However, in the university, there are always a lot of problems troubling us. Some of us even don’t know how to arrange our life, letting alone studies. So, everyone should gradually know the aim of the study and how to achieve it. First of all, we should know that we are now working for a better life and job in the future.

Also, because of this reason, more and more people go to the university and this will make the competition tough. We all need to strength ourselves to ensure a better life. For me, the most value of going to university is that we can have more chances to approach the society. We will meet people from different cities or different countries. This will teach us how to get along with others. Distinguished from senior high school, we need to contact with people from companies or different part of the society. Throughout this, we will gain much experience that we didn’t have before. Also, for some of us, we are now realizing the dream of our parents. We have already become a hope for them.

(Engemann & Henderson, 2012) When looking to make a Business Impact Analysis we need to talk a look at all the resources of our company and what they do for the company. Then we figure what each piece need in the event of a crisis and how long and how much money it will take to get back on line so let take a look at the most valuable piece of equipment and work our way to the most expandable piece of equipment. The first and most important is the 3 file servers which is the central storage and the managing of data files to the company.

...Such threats include flooding, lightning, earthquake, wind, tornadoes, hurricanes, fire, environmental failure, and electrical interruption as these can destroy whole infrastructures and can cause valuable and important data to be lost. For example, in case of flood or fire it is certain that infrastructure will be destroyed that contains many hardware and storage system that contains valuable data such as detail of customers, product etc. so we would need to provide security to this data because loss of this information would have extreme consequences to the business, as well as being virtually impossible to recover at a total loss. We can use the method “backup and recovery” for to substantially reduce the impact of this disaster threat. Cloud technology can be deployed which would create a remote cold site that would allow access to critical system information with limited physical resources if necessary. When considering logical vulnerabilities and threats, the following is to be considered. Unauthorized modification of the database is a major threat issue or concern when designing the IT infrastructure for the organization. In this threat, an unauthorized user accesses the database and makes unwarranted changes. Unauthorized users can make changes in the database making too difficult to recover from. For example, they can modify the details of employee of organization, manufacturing or our product details or it services details also....
