Described potential or real barriers and solutions (financial, political, social, etc) and methods that will or could be used to address these barriers: Some potential barriers could be reluctance by the nursing staff to participate in the hourly nursing rounds due to the feeling that they do not have enough time to complete these hourly rounds. By providing the unit with appropriate staff and helping to reduce or eliminate their fears by providing them with the research gathered can hopefully achieve this goal. Also by showing them that call light frequency will be lower when hourly rounds are...

September 11, 2001 was the start of the economic crisis for the airlines, along with the rising costs of operations. Classic Airlines has internal and external factors, which also contribute to the airline’s crisis. Addressing the crisis, Classic Airlines should consider using a ten-step basic problem-solving method as well as seek suggestions from the airlines internal and external resources. Define the Problem The first step in the method is defining Classic Airlines problem by determining the purpose of the project. Classic Airline’s shares are declining even though the airlines still earn a profit. A problem found is Classic Airline’s reward program offered to customers has declined, which could be because the customers are traveling less because of the economic times or the customers are traveling on other airlines. The decline could also be linked to the lack of customer satisfaction. Employee morale is another contributing factor to the airlines problems. The morale has decreased because of the September 11, 2001 attacks, referred to as 9/11. After 9/11 the airline was criticize...

...Classic Airlines and Marketing University of Phoenix Marketing MKT/571 Classic Airlines and Marketing Classic Airline is the fifth largest airline in the world, has 375 jets, located in 240 cities and has 2300 daily flights. After 25 years of service Classic has 32,000 employees and in the past year has earned a profit of 10 million out of 8.7 billion in sales, but they face many challenges. The challenges that Classic Airlines faces are the uncertainty of flying and the effect it has on the industry. In the past year Classic has experienced a 10% decrease in share process and the rising cost of fuel and labor have limited the ability of Classic to compete for frequent fliers. Classic will obtain answers regarding the Frequent Flier Program from the customers. Interviewing of current members of the reward program will allow Classic to gather information about customer satisfaction. The feedback received from this interview showed that Classic will need to update the current reward program specifically the rules for redemption. Classic Airline wants passengers’ activity to increase in the reward program and to attract potential customers. Development of a marketing plan that focuses on the needs of the customers while allowing the airline to increase profits and attract new customers could be beneficial to Classic Airline, Market-oriented planning strategic planning is the managerial process of developing and maintaining a viable fit between the organization’s...

...Tool July 16, 2013 **think this has to be double spaced Management of Delirium in the ICU Introduction Delirium is a serious condition that can affect patients in and outside the hospital. With its presence being unknown to many nurses and providers, delirium has significant long term complications that can last well beyond discharge. Noise, medication, and infection are significant in the development and progression of delirium and these are more than abundant within intensive care patients. The importance of nurse’s knowledge cannot be stressed enough regarding the assessment, symptoms, and interventions of delirium, in an effort to decrease its occurrence and the implications thereafter. With the proper assessment and improved nursing interventions, data should display an increase in patient safety, decrease in prevalence, and reduce costs related to longer hospital stays. The state of being delirious occurs with a sudden decrease in a patient’s level of consciousness. It may be accompanied by inattention directly related to the care being given or by a change in cognition. (cite AACN practice alert) There are a variety of possible causes of delirium. These causes include: alcohol withdrawal, sepsis, pneumonia, electrolyte imbalances, liver failure, encephalitis, head trauma, meningitis, the use of many medications and abrupt withdrawal of medications. Most medical diagnosis and their possible complications can lead to some form of delirium. Delirium can manifest in...

...Company Background Aeroplan is a leading partnership loyalty program situated in Canada, and is owned by Groupe Aeroplan Inc. It is the prominent loyalty management organization in the world. The head offices for Aeroplan are situated in Montreal, Toronto. It also has two call centers, one in Vancouver and the other in Montreal. Aeroplan started as a promotional tool for business travelers for Air Canada in 1984. After a period of one year, the organization had amassed about 100,000 regular flyers. In 2004, Aeroplan adopted its own identity separate from Air Canada, and it emerged as the leading loyalty initiative in Canada (Boer & Gudmundsson, 2012). In 2008, Aeroplan converted its Income Fund to growth oriented, which is a worldwide loyalty management organization referred to as Groupe Aeroplan Inc. In 2009, Air Canada transferred its Vancouver and Montreal call hubs to Aeroplan. This move made approximately 800 agents who were affiliated with the CAW Union to join around 350 employees who used to serve as administrative staff at Aeroplan. As a result, the company was forced to adopt a key culture change in order to cope with the workers who previously worked for Air Canada. Presently, Aeroplan has around 4 million members who are awarded air miles based on the widening network that comprises of about 150 brands in the retail, financial and travel industries (Boer & Gudmundsson, 2012).

...Associate-degree versus Baccalaureate-degree Nursing Benjamin Botengan Grand Canyon University Professional Dynamics NRS 430V Professor Luci Hanus May 30, 2015 Associate-degree versus Baccalaureate-degree Nursing In the dynamic world of health care, change is always in demand. To keep up with this, there seems to be direct correlation with quality care and a nursing workforce equipped with the proper educational levels. Higher level of nursing education, better patient outcomes. Numerous research teams have proven that there are lower mortality rates, fewer medication errors, and positive outcomes associated with nurses who at least have their Baccalaureate-degree in Nursing. This fact has been the soul of a more highly qualified nursing workforce. A baccalaureate prepared nurse is the baseline in this quest. The numbers prove this fact as shown in recent studies. * One study shows lowered odds of patient mortality by 10.9% from a 10% increase in the proportion of baccalaureate prepared nurses. Furthermore, an increase in the nursing workforce to 80% BSN resulted in lower readmission rates and shortened lengths of stay and therefore more savings (Yakusheva, Lindrooth, & Weiss, 2014). http://journals.lww.com/lww-medicalcare/pages/default.aspx. BSN nurses understand culture and society in relation to nursing. They are able to visualize future health trends as well as the present health requirements of the patient and of society. (Rosseter, 2010) * This is also...

...competencies, there are also a number of differences. The Associates Degree trained nurse (ADN), attends a two year program typically taught at a community college. The main part of the curriculum is preparing for clinical competency, but typically lacks instruction in theory and the science of nursing. The ADN level nurse was developed in response to a shortage of nurses following World War II. Mildred Montag developed the two year ADN program in response to the nursing shortage. Montag's defined the ADN as a technical nurse which included skill and some judgment to function at the intermediate level. Leadership and management were not part of the curriculum. Bachelor of Science of Nursing (BSN) programs are taught at four year colleges and universities. Clinical competency is achieved, as in the ADN program, but also additional areas of study such as: leadership and management, critical thinking and community health care. In a study by Giger and Davidhizar (1990), BSN nurses significantly outscore ADN nurses in the professional category. They are were more concerned with research, teaching and community assessment, whereas the ADN nurse was more concerned with the technical aspects of nursing care (Giger and Davidhizar, 1990). Critical thinking disposition skills of senior programs revealed that BSN students scored significantly higher on critical thinking. (Shin, 1998). Although, most people have some critical thinking skills, it is a skill that must be developed. In the BSN...
