There are many different levels of employees within a company such as management, trainees, supervisors, owners, sales, and so on. Without all of the different positions it would leave a company with over loads of work for one person and would not leave room for variety with-in the work place. I would definitely have to say though that a company is developed around the type of leaders that represent that company and it is very important that company consists of the best supervisors and managers to carry the team. There are main functions within being a supervisor that helps carry the supervising role smoothly.

...are because they are the only ones that have access to the patient’s records. What can cause the biggest problems for records management is if it is not done the right way. In small facilities the patient’s can get the wrong treatment if the information is entered wrong in the patient’s records. This can cause issues for the patient because the patient will be getting the treatment that the patient does not need and it will not help what the patient’s problem really is. This can cause for the patient to have an allergic reaction if the patient is given the wrong medication. Not only that, but the patient’s information was or could have been given to another patient. This is why it is very important that the nurse and also the doctor pay attention to the information and make sure that they ask the patients name and go over the information that they have to make sure that the patient is getting the proper care that he/she may need.

...Summarize the four major pieces of legislation collectively known as the Antitrust Laws. The four pieces of legislation known as the Antitrust Laws are the Sherman Act of 1890, Clayton Act of 1914, The Federal Trade Commission Act of 1914, and the Celler-Kefauver Act of 1950. The Sherman Act was put into place to stop any price fixing or anything illegal for a company to become so big that it dominated in its area so there couldn’t be any competition. The Act was written and to the point, but in the end failed to live up to its intent. In 1914, The Clayton Act was written to add on to the Sherman Act and make it more stable. By doing this the government could fight against monopolies better. The Clayton Act got rid of price discrimination, tying contracts, stock acquisitions, and it did not allow people to participate in cross directorships, meaning a person couldn’t be part of two competing companies. The Federal Trade Commission Act of 1914 was made up of 5 people to enforce the antitrust laws. They are able to investigate any wrong doings and report them to the U.S. Justice Department. The Celler-Kefauver Act of 1950 is an amendment to the Clayton Act. It was found that even though the Clayton Act improved on the Sherman Act there were still loopholes that companies could use to stay out of trouble. With the Celler-Kefauver Act amendment it stops competing firms from merging by stating that one company cannot get the physical assets of the other company. B. Discuss...
