As you discussed in this unit’s Discussion Board, survey research is one of the most common ways of collecting data. However, not all survey research is created equal. In this activity, your task is to collect at least 5 different examples of surveys used by local police agencies. Using these examples, write a 4-page report comparing the different examples. In your report, provide at least 5 examples associated with best practices or examples that you believe could be improved. Supply a ranking of the different surveys, and show your favorite and least favorite survey, again supplying an explanation.

 

The specific steps are as follows:

 

1. Conduct independent research, and find at least 5 different examples of surveys used by local police agencies.
   • As an example, here is a survey used by the Virginia Police Department.
2. Compare each of the surveys, finding your favorite and least favorite survey.
   • Supply at least a 1-page explanation on your selections.
3. Using your research examples, find at least 5 examples of best practices or areas that could be improved.
   • Dedicate at least 3 pages to this section.

Prior to beginning work, review Chapters 1 through 9 attached and the web page Health Information Privacy (Links to an external site.), and watch the video Life After Death by PowerPoint (Corporate Comedy Video) (Links to an external site.). In addition, read the document AMA’s Code of Medical Ethics (Links to an external site.) and the following articles:

 

 

 

· Informed Consent: A Study of Patients With Life-Threatening Illnesses

 

· Educating Nurses for Ethical Practice in Contemporary Health Care Environments

 

· Cultural Aspects Related to Informed Consent in Health Research: A Systematic Review

 

· Ethical Sensitivity: Shaping the Everyday Work Environment

 

· Iranian Pediatric Nurse’s Experience: The Facilitators of the Learning of Ethical Practices (Links to an external site.)

 

· Ethical, Cultural, and Spiritual Dimensions of Healthcare Practice

 

· Does Medical Education Erode Medical Trainees’ Ethical Attitude and Behavior?

 

 

 

Imagine that you are a hospital’s compliance officer, and you are charged with making a presentation to your hospital’s board of directors regarding the moral right to health care. Your presentation should include at least three of the elements learned throughout this course, which could include, but are not limited to the code of ethics, resource allocation, Stark Law, medical malpractice, and/or cultural competency.

 

 

 

First: Create a PowerPoint presentation that addresses the issue of the moral right to healthcare. Your presentation must include at least five slides (not including a cover slide and reference slide).

 

 

 

Next: Present your PowerPoint using the program of your choice — Screencast-O-Matic (Links to an external site.), Jing (Links to an external site.), MP3 or MP4 — by providing the voiceover (audio) for your meeting/presentation, and then upload your video file to send to me. Your screencast presentation should be between 3 and 5 minutes long. The use of a screencast program is required. Adding audio to your PowerPoint presentation does not count as a screencast.

 

 

 

Please remember: This is a PowerPoint presentation being provided to the board of directors (BOD). Picture the audience as the board of directors. Therefore, as in any presentation, it is very important not to overload your slides with too much information or to place your entire script onto your slides. Your PowerPoint slides should have summarized bullet points with the bulk of what you are going to say to the BOD below the slide in the Notes Section, and please do not forget that your in-text citations should be in the notes section matching those sources listed in your reference slide.

1. Choose one of the 4 key tenets of good supply chains, describe it, then identify a company that has had a problem with one (any one) of the tenets and describe the challenge.

 

2. The Barilla Spa case put forward an idea for JIT distribution (JITD) or now better known as Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) … a concept now made popular by Walmart among others.  Investigate how Walmart has used VMI as a key element in their Every Day Low Pricing model to the market.  Specifically tell me about how they communicate demand to suppliers, how inventory from suppliers is stored and moved up and down the (echelon) supply chain, and how/when suppliers are paid for their products.
