Quality improvement in hospital needs and perceived Barriers in wound care management Introduction Quality improvement (QI) is a strategy that has a real significance on the hospital’s needs and the perceived barriers in wounds. The effort to improve the quality of nursing in the hospital is critically analyzed to help identify the basic resources and knowledge required to manage wounds within hospital care. Wounds such as diabetic foot and pressure injuries have a real inconvenience to the patients and therefore lack of knowledge and confidence among the nurses would lead to poor performance level on the hospital requirements. QI, in this case, aims at issuing a cost-effective, reliable, and sustainable health care to help achieve the essential healthcare goals. The modalities of the work process need to work along with the professionalism and technicalities of its needs. This paper, therefore, analyses the quality improvement needs in a hospital set up to manage wounds and other nursing care requirements. Purpose Wound management and its perceived barriers are a definitive topic for quality improvement. The paper serves the purpose of illustrating how…
An analytical summary Process Costing Companies use the process costing method when they produce identical units of products. For instance, companies like Chevron Corporation use the process costing method for petroleum products. Similarly, Wrigley Company uses it for producing chewing gum and Pittsburgh Paints use it for manufacturing paint (saylordotorg.github.io, 2020). There is a difference between process costing and job costing. In the case of job costing, unique jobs or products are produced. For instance, Lockheed Martin is renowned for advanced technology systems and Boeing is renowned for its airplanes. One of the key takeaways of the module is that process costing system can be used where identical products are produced in batches and the process is consistent as well. On the other hand, when companies produce unique jobs or products, they tend to employ the job costing method. In the case of process costing systems, the processing department tracks the costs. In the case of a job costing system, the job tracks the costs. In the case of process costing, production departments use direct materials. Therefore, it is possible…
Part-1 Design Explain how your design will be able to store the information of games, athletes and user predictions. Ans – To store game data Hashmap is used. Its key is String, and it will store Game type. Its value is List of athletes. User predictions are stored in Driver class instance variable “predictWinnerName.” Explain how your class hierarchy will forbid a user from creating a “generic” type of participant (i.e., not an athlete nor an official) Ans- I have created abstract class “Participant” which stores common information of official and athlete. It stores name, age, and state. After that, I have created an Official class which inherits Participant class, and its additional variable is ID. Similarly Athletes class inherits Participant class, and it has additional variable like – ID, Athletic Type, last game point, total points, completeTime. Explain the process by which your program will maintain a game and give the correct score to athletes according to their performance. Ans- To maintain game HashMap is used. For the correct score, I have added variable “totalPoints” that will…
Introduction It is important to note that in the contemporary environment, various styles of leadership can be applied. One of the common forms of leadership is through the incorporation of trait theory and behavioral theories. The other methods of administration involve the establishment of contingency theories of leadership. It is important to note that these two different theories of leadership are exceptional in the contemporary environment. The two approaches are, however, different. The difference is by comprehending what it is that they encompass. It is imperative to go through the gaps that theories have. Through this, it is possible to identify the strengths and weaknesses of each leadership theory. Consequently, determine the manner through which these leaders should approach. Differences The first theory to review and what it entails is the trait theory. According to the trait theory, some essential inborn characteristics set apart a leader from a non-leader. The personality traits are responsible for having a person carrying out practical work in the various posts accorded to lead. The trait theory is the implicit theory of leadership. Social physical…
Legalizing Marijuana in the United States (US) Marijuana is the most commonly used illicit drug in the US. Despite the existence of federal law prohibiting its use and distribution, states have been experimenting on liberalization policies of the substance for the past five decades (Pacula & Smart, 2019). However, the scientific evidence that has been generated remains inconclusive regarding the impact of the guidelines. Pacula and Smart (2019) note that state decriminalization policies first emerged in the 1970s, while patient medical access laws were adopted in the 1990s. The states have more recently progressed to experiment with legalizing recreational markets, thereby resulting in a spectrum of marijuana liberalization rules. Decriminalization laws often seek to reduce the penalty of possessing small amounts of drugs. Therefore, the US should legalize marijuana because of its medicinal purpose, revenue generation benefits, role in crime reduction, and will promote racial justice. However, permitting its free use poses the risk of contributing to addiction. Patients with a wide range of symptoms and diseases have used cannabis as a self-management strategy because of its medicinal properties.…
Employment Law Introduction Generally, employment laws are often put in place to protect the employees from any form of mistreatment by their employers. Without the legal statutes that protect the employees and their terms of employment, workers can be highly vulnerable to unjust treatments by employers. Most of the employment laws protect the employees from different forms of discrimination, workplace health and safety requirements, minimum wage, alongside the child labor laws and the compensation of the workers[1]. In the past years, the response to the employment laws has not been admirable as some of the employers have not been adhering to the standards set in the constitution. The employment laws protect the workers from different forms of violence at the workplace. Before the introduction of some of these laws like the minimum wage laws, the employer would decide on the amount of salary that the employee would get, without any influence of the law. The employment law also protected the terms of contract upon which the employee was to work for the employer[2]. Therefore, before an employee could settle to…

International Human Resource Management It is worth pointing out that effective management, as well as the development of human resources, is highly challenging for organizations (Collings & Mellahi, 2009). Some organizations have developed a greater international focus, making it even harder for the management of human resources. As such, there is the need for the training of the human resource professionals on how they can manage employees across borders. They need to be equipped with the knowledge and skills that they can employ to work within the wider context of international people management, as well as development. International human resource management focuses on global employment issues that include national cultures, legislation, as well as strategies (Collings, Scullion & Dowling, 2009). On the same note, international human resource management is mainly designed so as to develop a strategic people management focus in the context of international organizations. According to Macky & Johnson (2003), international human resource management encourages the human resource professionals to develop the strategies and skills with which they can support organizations to attain their goals through adding…
