...Assessing and planning are two big components of the supervisory process. They can be done through clinical supervision and/or peer coaching. It depends on which model will work best for your school. Clinical supervision looks more at data whereas, peer coaching involves more around. However, they are both similar and different in many ways that will be discussed in this paper. Clinical supervision Clinical supervision has changed over the years. It started in 1969 with five steps to include preconference, observation, analyzing of data and planning for post conference, post conference with teacher, and critique of the previous four steps (Glickman, Gordon, and Ross-Gordon, 2014). Over the years, twelve principles were added. They are classroom based, purpose for instruction and teacher’s long term development, separate from summative evaluation, understanding of child development, education, and teacher improvement, supervisor needs to have relational and problem solving skills, open-minded, reciprocated trust, collegial affiliation, data-based, gathers data based on the teacher’s lesson to be observed, has reflective conversation with teacher and supervisor, and is recurring ((Glickman, Gordon, and Ross-Gordon, 2014). It involves a teacher receiving feedback from a colleague that observed the teacher but wears many hats like a sounding board to enables the teacher to examine and alters their own professional practice (Pajak, 2003).

For example, they may work on medical conditions, such as cancer, diabetes, AIDS, malaria, food poisoning or anaemia, or carry out tests for emergency blood transfusions or to see if someone has had a heart attack. Biomedical scientists can work in three areas: infection sciences; blood sciences; and cellular sciences. Infection sciences include: •medical microbiology - identification of micro-organisms causing disease and their antibiotic treatment; •virology - identification of viruses, associated diseases and monitoring the effectiveness of vaccines. Blood sciences include: •clinical chemistry - analysis of body fluids and toxicology studies; •transfusion science - determination of donor/recipient blood compatibility, ensuring blood banks are sufficient; •haematology - form and functions of blood and related diseases; •immunology - understanding the immune system and its role in combating disease. Cellular sciences include: •histopathology - microscopic examination of diseased tissue samples; •cytology - best known for cervical smear screening, but also covers other cellular analysis; •reproductive sciences - analysis of samples to detect fertility...

...System can provide flexible and effective staffing, balancing patient assignments, and preparing budgets (Kuhns et al., 2006, p.76). Using the information that is gathered from the classification system can allow for the needs of the next staffing shift to be better prepared. The Expert Nurse Estimation Patient Classification System identifies the uniqueness of each patient using an eight category of care: cognitive status, self-care status, emotional, psychosocial support needs, comfort/pain management needs, family information and support needs, treatment needs, interdisciplinary coordination, patient teaching, documentation needs, and transition planning needs (Kuhns et al., 2006, p.76). The information or data that is entered by the health care unit coordinator will contain mostly clinical information determined by the clinical staff personal. Having a system that makes it easier on everyone is very beneficial. It makes room for little error and less work load. People will not feel over worked or stressed. They can rely on the proper things being there making the work day easier. Better attention can be paid to the patients needs and can be better carried out. Of course there will allow be mishaps, but finding a way to minimize it is the key. Reference Kuhns, D., Rice, P., & Winslow, L. (2006). Health unit coordinator: 21st century professional.

...process that creates power and motivation sufficient to overwhelm all the sources on inertia”, and second, this process is never employed effectively unless it is driven by high quality leadership” (Kotter, 1996, p. 20-21). Strategic planning, which should include identifying the change model to be followed, outlining the role of leadership, and planning for how to overcome potential barriers and sustain the change, all play a vital role in a successful change initiative. The purpose of this paper is to first identify a specific organization that could benefit from a change initiative that would improve their effectiveness, and then outline strategies and processes that would influence the adoption of the change initiative. The Need for Change The Army Nurse Corps has a program geared toward new graduate Registered Nurses (RNs) that are entering the military health care system called the Clinical Nurse Transition Program. It is a discipline specific, (clinical nursing) structured, 6 month program that is mandatory for all new graduate Army Nurse (AN) officers. Some of the goals of the program include: providing an environment for continued learning that helps the new RN graduate transition into independent clinical practice; developing clinical leadership capabilities and...

...Discuss the potential contribution that health services planning can make to the development of an effective and efficient health care system. ________________________________________ Health services planning is a process of coordinating a comprehensive mechanism for the efficient allocation of resources to meet specific goals set by a health organization. In other words it can be said that to develop an effective health care system that is accessible, patient-centered, has clinical integration and promotes primary health care would mean having a comprehensive health plan that has this as a strategic objective. The same can be said of having an efficient health care system that delivers health care in a way that minimizes the use of a country’s resources.. The development of this plan had taken into consideration the internal and external factors that would influence the accomplishment of these objectives. The strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats in the current system along with critical identifiable success factors such as human and non-human resources would have all been considered in the setting out of SMART objectives that attainable. In summary, if Health services planning is coordinated and comprehensively undertaken where internal and external factors are considered along with other key critical success factors such as organizational theories; motivational theories and distribution of powers and authorities are clear – then this plan has the potential to...

...University of Maryland Case Study Analysis Eli Lilly: Developing Cymbalta Case Study AMBA 650 Section 1131 Kelvin Harris January 24, 2012 Executive Summary Eli Lilly and Company resounding success was the arrival of Prozac in 1988. By mid-1988, a new anti-depressant team was formed to find and develop a drug that would be the successor to Prozac. The strategic issues and problems they faced were developing a new drug to replace Prozac, meeting the company budget constraints to perform clinical trials, and finally launch the new drug by mid-2001. The analysis and evaluation revealed that the pharmaceutical industry is changing fast and it usually takes a long time and millions of dollars to develop a new drug. The recommendation for Eli Lilly is to take the lead in developing the new drug Cymbalta, invest a stable share of the company revenue, seek the FDA approval for the development of Cymbalta before going to market, and not change their market plan from the FDA approved Cymbalta dosage of 20 mg twice daily. Introduction Eli Lilly and Company was founded by Colonel Eli Lilly, Lilly’s namesake, in 1876 when he purchased a laboratory on Pearl Street in Indianapolis, Indiana. Eli Lilly was a pharmacist who had served in the Union Army during the Civil War. The company success included creating the process for applying gelatin-coating to pills for easier swallowing and the introduction of Iletin which was the first mass-produced insulin. Iletin...
