...of Phoenix This paper is in reference to case study 10. This paper will develop one process evaluation measure and one outcome evaluation measure to display the Greenby Community Mental Health Center’s effectiveness and efficiency. This paper will also discuss the scope and purpose of the process evaluation measure and outcome evaluation measure and how they influence the design. The Greenby Community Mental Health Center process evaluation measure suggests the consultation and education department needs to implement the address of the real questionable issue within the organization, and to evaluate the programs being offered through the organization. The questionable issue at the center involves the discontinuance of the consultation and education departments. We understand the organization is facing an issue in regard to required service programs. We also understand the community mental health center has suggested as long as there is a director available the proposed suggestion will work, but doing so will take away workshops that have been instrumental to the program consumers. The implemented design includes dedicating a percentage of each professionals work towards Consultation and Education (Lewis, p. 242). A process evaluation is aimed at enhancing a current program by means of a formative analysis.

...Evaluating the Consultation and Education Department Research Paper Heather Sanchez University of Phoenix June 17, 2011 The Greenby Mental Health Center funding has been cut back. The cut back in funding has caused the organization to look at possibly doing away with their consultation and education department. This paper will describe at least one process evaluation measure and at least one outcome evaluation measure that could be suggested for the Consultation and Education Department at Greenby Community Mental Health Center to display the program effectiveness and efficiency. The paper will also explain the scope and purpose of the chosen process evaluation and outcome evaluation measures and how they influence the design. Issues and challenges that may arise from evaluating the Greenby Community Mental Health Center will be covered. Finally, why an evaluation may be helpful to the Consultation and Education Department director’s situation will be explained. “Program evaluation is carefully collecting information about a program or some aspect of a program in order to make necessary decisions about the program. Program evaluation can include any or a variety of at least 35 different types of evaluation, such as for needs assessments, accreditation, cost/benefit analysis, effectiveness, efficiency, formative, summative, goal-based, process, outcomes, etc. The type of evaluation one undertakes to improve ones programs depends on what one wants to learn about the program...

Abstract This term paper for unit two review three articles, Ethics Consultation in United States Hospitals This term paper also defines 8 financial terms. Keywords: Balance sheet, Shareholder Equity, EBITDA, EBITDAM, Financial Ethics, Financial Benchmarking, Financial Trend Analysis, and Ratio Analysis. Unit 2 Term Paper Business ethics is the appropriate business guidelines and customs regarding debatable issues, like the way a CEO runs his company, illegal stock trading, corruption, business social and monetary obligations. The government’s authorities frequently enforce business ethics, still there are times when businesses alone will use a straightforward structure that organizations can abide by so that they simply may benefit the public interest (investopedia.com, 2013). Article Review The first article chosen for this assignment, is Betsy Gallup’s article Ethics Are an Important Part of Running a Health-Care Facility, and she explains ethics as having three components: independence, integrity and objectivity (2009)...

...four are qualified lawyers and each one is supported by a team of barristers, solicitors etc. Under s3(1) of the 1965 Act, the role of the Law Commission is to ‘keep under review all the law’. 2. Compare and contrast the different roles of the following in law making – * House of Commons * House of Lords * Crown The three parts of Parliament are The House of Commons, The House of Lords and The Crown (the Queen). The House of Commons contains 650 members called MP’s who are elected at general elections. The leader of the party with the greatest number of MP’s is the Prime Minister. The role of The House of Commons is to debate and vote on whether to approve new laws. The House of Commons also ensures that the legislative process is democratic. There are approximately 700 members of the House of the Lords who are all unpaid and unelected. Sitting in the House of Lords are hereditary peers, life peers and 26 Bishops of the Church of England. The role of The House of Lords is to pose questions to the Government and debate current issues. The Crown is the title given to the monarch.

...Consultation Paper No 3/2011 TELECOM REGULATORY AUTHORITY OF INDIA Consultation Paper On Green Telecommunications 3rd February, 2011 Mahanagar Doorsanchar Bhawan Jawahar Lal Nehru Marg New Delhi-110002 Preface Operation of telecommunications networks requires electrical power. The expense on energy accounts for a significant share of the operational cost of these networks. This is particularly so in the rural areas where availability of power is uncertain. The use of diesel generators to ensure continuous power supply has the disadvantage of increasing the greenhouse gas emission and consequent enlargement of the carbon footprint which has a deleterious impact on the environment. While contribution of the telecommunications sector to the global carbon footprint is low compared to other sectors like transportation and construction, it nevertheless contributes a noteworthy share and increasingly so with growing reach of the telecommunications network. Efforts are afoot, all over the world, to find measures to deal with this issue. As the second largest and fastest growing market in the world, there is need for India to be conscious of the concerns in this regard. Besides, as a country heavily dependent on import of petroleum products while being abundant in renewable energy sources there is scope for innovative measures towards making telecommunications green. It is in this regard that TRAI believes that this is an opportune time to discuss the related issues...

...Explain the process for how an Act of Parliament is made staring with the green paper through to the Royal assent The Pre-Legislative Process Before a Bill is drafted, the government that's involved in the proposal changes to the law may issue a consultation paper known as the Green Paper, that basically sets out the proposals for a new law. And the interested parties are invited to comment on the proposals. These comments are then considered by the government. Any necessary changes are then set out and confirmed on the White Paper. After consultation is complete highly skilled lawyers called Parliamentary Draftsmen will draft the proposals into a Bill. This is called drafting. They aim to make sure that the proposed law is worded exactly to give the intended result, even though sometimes they are not always successful. Any ambiguous or misleading wording can lead to problems in the future. Legislative Process In order for a Bill to become an Act of Parliament it must pass through a number of stages in both the House of Commons and House of Lords and must receive the Royal Assent. (Most bills will start in the house of commons). 1. First Reading This takes place when the title of a Bill is read out to the house. It is a formal procedure. No debate takes place, although there will be a vote on whether the house wishes to consider the Bill further. This Bill can be verbal with the speaker asking members of the house to shout ''aye'' or ''no''. However if the vote...

...Project management is a discipline that is derived from general management using scientific methods in ensuring that various projects are completed within a certain period of time and with predetermined resources. There are six mutually interacting processes that are involved in this project and they include: “activity definition, activity sequencing, activity resource estimating, activity duration estimating, schedule development, and schedule control” (Gurmin, 2010). In this paper, the focus will be on schedule management as it is one of the major tenets in the successful completion of any project especially to investors who do not like surprises arising from risks (Bart, 2011). The case study chosen as a benchmark for determining the issues and conclusions regarding project planning, scheduling and risk management for information technology projects has been derived from the construction industry and aims at identifying parallels in the two industries. The study of the construction case study in Vietnam leads to the formulation of the following recommendations. First is that due to the unique nature of each project, the rules and regulations that are applicable in construction and IT projects should be flexibly employed so that academic strengths can be used to ensure that planning and control of the projects are case-specific. This then follows that there should be thorough vetting of proposed project managers that take their specific experiences and knowledge into account...

...role modelling, effective communication and consultation are all essential elements of influencing groups and individuals in an ethical manner. Cultural diversity demands that we understand the difference between ethics and morals. As leaders we must role model ourselves and teach ethics by living and breathing best practice in all Situations. Culture can be defined as: “The behaviors, beliefs and characteristic of a particular group”. Corporate culture is; “The sum of the formal and informal behaviors that a company adopts as their way of doing business”. Based on our experiences, religious beliefs, cultural beliefs and upbringing (to mention a few) we may not always see eye to eye on things and interpret events differently. It is important to respect different views in which we may not understand or agree with as long as they do not interfere with policy. Effectively implement improvements to organisational and workplace culture Culture is made collectively over time and not by an individual and so - must be embraced, resourced and improvements implemented by all. We can do this through consultation with the staff, monitoring performance and morale. As leaders in the organisation it is our responsibility to identify areas of improvement and suggest them in a democratic way to others in our group or culture. In people centered cultures leaders make a concerted effort to improve management of their human assets and to balance process controls with worker development, for example: ...

...Trade Related Intellectual Property Rights Coursework 2 Module 7LC018 Harvey Jones Student 100045856 December 2008 It has often been said that the WTO dispute settlement system provides an opportunity for developing countries to challenge trade measures taken by developed countries. This essay is an evaluation of whether the above statement reflects the reality of what happens in the dispute settlement system. Introduction The TRIPS Agreement There must be few people that disagree that there are benefits from engaging in trade. Trade across borders has occurred since the early part of human history, and international trading has developed from countries trading within their own borders. The WTO system can be argued not to be a free trade model but as a practical commercial arrangement between member nations. The World Trade Organization (WTO) and its predecessor, the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) have been enormously successful over the last 50 years at reducing tariff and other trade barriers among an ever increasing number of countries. If numbers of member nations are an indication of success then the WTO can be considered to be very successful. Crowley (2003) comments that GATT the predecessor to the WTO began in 1947 with only 23 members; Statistics from the website of the WTO show that on the 27th July 2007 the membership of the WTO comprised 151 countries. Several differences between GATT and the WTO can be noted. The first development is the rise of...
