Law enforcement agencies are frequently compared to the military when discussing their organizational structure. The term “quasi-military” is often used to describe the type of reporting structure that exists within most law enforcement agencies.

 

 

 

Compose an essay of 650 – 750 words that compares the organizational structure of law enforcement agencies with the military. When making your comparison include examples from both local law enforcement agencies, as well as state or federal law enforcement agencies such as the Federal Bureau of Investigation or State Bureau of Investigations.

 

 

 

Directly quoted material may be used, but will not count towards the minimum word count. Be sure to support your response with cited scholarly resources as required by APA. A minimum of three (3) resources in addition to the course readings must be used when composing your response.

When you decide to purchase a new car, you first decide what is important to you. If mileage and dependability are the important factors, you will search for data focused more on these factors and less on color options and sound systems.

 

The same holds true when searching for research evidence to guide your clinical inquiry and professional decisions. Developing a formula for an answerable, researchable question that addresses your need will make the search process much more effective. One such formula is the PICO(T) format.

 

In this Discussion, you will transform a clinical inquiry into a searchable question in PICO(T) format, so you can search the electronic databases more effectively and efficiently. You will share this PICO(T) question and examine strategies you might use to increase the rigor and effectiveness of a database search on your PICO(T) question.

 

To Prepare:

 

• Review the materials offering guidance on using databases, performing keyword searches, and developing PICO(T) questions provided in the Resources.
• Review the Resources for guidance and develop a PICO(T) question of interest to you for further study.
• 3 to 4 references less than 5 years

In the Discussion for this module, you considered the interaction of nurse informaticists with other specialists to ensure successful care. How is that success determined?

 

Patient outcomes and the fulfillment of care goals is one of the major ways that healthcare success is measured. Measuring patient outcomes results in the generation of data that can be used to improve results. Nursing informatics can have a significant part in this process and can help to improve outcomes by improving processes, identifying at-risk patients, and enhancing efficiency.

 

To Prepare:

 

• Review the concepts of technology application as presented in the Resources.
• Reflect on how emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence may help fortify nursing informatics as a specialty by leading to increased impact on patient outcomes or patient care efficiencies.

 

The Assignment: (4-5 pages)

 

In a 4- to 5-page project proposal written to the leadership of your healthcare organization, propose a nursing informatics project for your organization that you advocate to improve patient outcomes or patient-care efficiency. Your project proposal should include the following:

 

• Describe the project you propose.
• Identify the stakeholders impacted by this project.
• Explain the patient outcome(s) or patient-care efficiencies this project is aimed at improving and explain how this improvement would occur. Be specific and provide examples.
• Identify the technologies required to implement this project and explain why.
• Identify the project team (by roles) and explain how you would incorporate the nurse informaticist in the project team.

Assignment 3: Promotion and Pricing Strategies

 

Due Week 8 and worth 135 points

 

“Entrepreneurs must determine what to sell, to whom and how often, on what terms and at what price, and how to get the product or service to the customer. In short, a marketing plan identifies a company’s target customers and describes how it will attract and keep them. The process does not have to be complex.” (Scarborough & Cornwall, 2015, p. 274).

 

With this assignment, you will address some of the basic areas within a marketing plan and help to refine your strategies for creating a successful business.

 

Using the business from Assignment 2, write a three to four (3-4) page paper in which you:

 

1. Identify its primary target market.
2. Specify three (3) methods you will use to research customer needs and wants.
3. Describe the marketing mix: a) product, b) pricing strategy, c) promotion, and d)placement/distribution.
