Preparation

In this assessment, you will assume the role of a mid-level manager. You have been asked to analyze the health information technology (IT) needs for the Independence Medical Center (IMC), a rural referral hospital located in Waterloo, IA.

Complete the Vila Health: Health Information Technology Needs Analysis interactive simulation, linked in the Resources. Gather information about the IT needs of various departments within the hospital that will support a needs assessment.

Requirements

Identify the IT needs of the various hospital departments, using the IT Needs Matrix, linked in the Resources. Then, analyze the information you have collected and summarize your findings.

Note: Remember that you can submit all—or a portion of—your draft needs matrix and analysis to Smarthinking for feedback, before you submit the final version for this assessment. If you plan on using this free service, be mindful of the turnaround time of 24–48 hours for receiving feedback.

Supporting Evidence

It is not necessary to cite the Vila Health media simulation as the source of your information. However, if you reference other source materials, be sure to cite them correctly, using APA style.

IT Needs Matrix and Analysis

Note: The requirements outlined below correspond to the grading criteria in the scoring guide. Be sure that your needs matrix addresses each point, at a minimum. You may also want to read the Health Information Technology Needs Analysis Scoring Guide to better understand how each criterion will be assessed.

• Describe the components of a typical HIM system.
  • Choose a typical system in a setting you are familiar with.
  • Consider the clinical and administrative aspects of the system.
  • What evidence do you have that supports your description?
• Describe the challenges and best practices related to choosing and implementing health information systems.
  • Describe two or three challenges.

Required Resources

The following resources are required to complete the assessment.

• Vila Health: Health Information Technology Needs Analysis | Transcript.
  • This multimedia simulation will enable you to gather the information you will need for your needs analysis.

Watch the “Not an Illusion” film (http://www.cultureunplugged.com/play/5323 (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.). Refresh the page if the video does not load the first time; alternatively, try using a different web browser.

Writing: Discuss 
in detail the regulations imposed on Iranian musicians, their struggles, and the types of censorship that have affected their musical careers and personal lives.

Tip: Regulations are discussed throughout the film; not just close to the beginning. For this reason, please watch the complete film.

Proofread extensively!

 

In a 3-4-page paper, explore Affirmative Action as it relates to race and employment or college admissions. Review an organization you are familiar with (it can be your former high school, CSU-Global, or another college/university, your current employer, or an organization you would like to work for one day) and assess how well they adhere to Affirmative Action policies.

In your paper, provide an analysis of the debates around Affirmative Action as outlined in your reading as well as in the NCSL (Links to an external site.) website. Do you see these debates reflected in the organization you chose to analyze? As a tip, every organization should have a “statement of Affirmative Action” that is publicly posted on their website. Review the organization’s policy and discuss how well the organization adheres to the policies. Are there areas that come up in your review that indicate issues? What are they?

• Although Affirmative Action also impacts women workers, college athletes, and members of other groups, for this assignment, we will only focus on marginalized people of color. If you decide to review a college or university, be sure to consider their admissions policies. This is where you will see whether Affirmative Action policies are followed.
• The trick in this assignment is to not choose a side—this is not about your opinion (editorial), rather about your ability to research and understand a policy and how well an organization follows that policy (analysis). If you are at a loss on an organization to choose, you can simply do an Internet search with the words “Affirmative Action and Employment policies” and a number of options will come up for you.
• It may be helpful to review Affirmative Action policies regarding education and employment and complete the readings for this week before completing the assignment (Chapter 10.6: “Race & Ethnicity in the 21st Century”).

Instructions:

• Write a 3-4-page paper or about 1500 words, not including the title and reference pages, which are required.

Please see attached file for instructions and Figures from book.

 

 

Weekly Lecture:

HR adds value to an organization by being an active participant in helping establish the strategic goals, crafting a viable mission statement and aligning its activities with the vision of the organization.  Additionally, HR can assist in establishing core values to ensure employees understand the organizational expectation of how to uphold themselves in the workplace.   Evaluating employees or performance management is one of the essential functions of HR.  Performance Management is the “continuous process of identifying, measuring, and developing the performance of individuals and teams and aligning their performance with the organization’s goals” (Dressler, 2013).  Another goal of performance management is to promote and improve employee effectiveness.  It is a continuous process where managers and employees work together to plan, monitor and review an employee’s work objectives or goals and his or her overall contribution to the organization.  Organizations need a performance evaluation process that manages performance which is in direct correlation to the overall organizational mission, vision and values.  Though this feedback should be provided in a formalized process, it should also be provided on a consistent basis and documented accordingly throughout the year.  This can take place during informal meetings and conversations with a supervisor and can be both positive or negative.  Furthermore, the performance evaluation plan needs to provide equitable rewards to employees with a good evaluation. Providing a reward system will also hold employees accountable for completing their job duties and responsibilities well.  Overall, an HR performance management plan should support and further the larger organizational goals.

Organizational change is another element utilizing the knowledge and skill of the Human Resources professional. Along with organizational change comes training and development of employees. Organizations that change and do not allow for further development of employees, will not be competitive.  Therefore, with organizational change should come organization and employee improvement.  Training and development provides a means for organizations to invest in their employees by increasing their skills and knowledge. An argument against training and development is that it takes an employee away from their current work responsibilities which can cost the organization time and money. However, this short-term issue is outweighed heavily by the overall benefits that training and development provide to the employee as well as the organization. For example, training and development will provide an improved skill and knowledge base to provide the employee the ability to perform their job better than before. It can also build employee confidence.  Confidence alone can increase employee performance and satisfaction. Lastly, training and development can provide the employee the means to grow within the organization.  Organizations need to remember that employees learn at different paces and should act accordingly during the training process.   

Overall, performance evaluation processes as well as training and development are key components to the employees and the organizations success.  Organizations need to have appropriate procedures in place to have a fair evaluation process as well as opportunities for training and development.

Please watch Performance Management (Links to an external site.), which will provide an overview on performance management.

Assessment Instructions

• Identify and discuss potential diversity in the group that you anticipate teaching. (Diversity can include multiculturalism, age, gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, Limited English Proficiency (LEP), or other cultural barriers that you feel could impact your learning environment.)
• Use current research to describe how you will address these issues in your learning environment.
