Taif Disaster & Emergency Preparation Mgt & Prevention Measures Personal Analysis

/in /by

I don’t know how to handle this Health & Medical question and need guidance.

 

Step 1

After reading the interviews:

  • you have to do “coding” the themes for whole class interviews (collect data from all interviews) using excel program.
  • When you are finishing the themes (coding), from the result, write 4 different a personal analysis

Step 2

  • Since you have “coded” the themes, NOW you can focus the questions a little bit (still have to decide if each question should be an open question, or preselected options) to get at the meaning from the sample population perspective. Please be careful: I still don’t want to see bias in the survey, i.e. leading questions (or answers) designed to make YOUR preconceived conclusion (confirmation bias). Let the sample and their data tell the story.
  • Build 20 questions can fill the gaps, see where the gaps are (the gaps in the 28 questions which are in the interview or the survey) can added to the original interview to be more reasonable. Did a particular interview question yield interesting, but incomplete data? What premise did you make that needs confirmation, or clarification, or amplification? Where was saturation not found? Those areas are what you would explore in a larger sample, and for the assignment, your next tool would be a “Survey”; in this case something that would be sent out to individuals for them to complete without the support/interaction of the interviewer

Time value of Money

/in /by

When the Genesis Energy and Sensible Essential teams held their weekly meeting, the time value of money and its applicability yielded an extremely stimulating discussion. However, most of the team members from Genesis Energy were very perplexed. Sensible Essentials decided the most expedient way to demonstrate how interest rates as well as time impact the value of money was to use examples. You have been asked to prepare a report analyzing your findings of the three example calculations listed below.

In this assignment, you will do the following:

  1. Calculate the future value of $100,000 ten years from now based on the following annual interest rates:
    1. 2%
    2. 5%
    3. 8%
    4. 10%
  1. Calculate the present value of a stream of cash flows based on a discount rate of 8%. Annual cash flow is as follows:
    1. Year 1 = $100,000
    2. Year 2 = $150,000
    3. Year 3 = $200,000
    4. Year 4 = $200,000
    5. Year 5 = $150,000
    6. Years 6-10 = $100,000
  1. Calculate the present value of the cash flow stream in problem 2 with the following interest rates:
    1. Year 1 = 8%
    2. Year 2 = 6%
    3. Year 3 = 10%
    4. Year 4 = 4%
    5. Year 5 = 6%
    6. Years 6-10 = 4

Perform your calculations in an Excel spreadsheet. Copy the calculations in a Word document. In addition, write a 2- to 3-page executive summary in Word format. Your summary should reflect a proper analysis of your findings, including a comparison and contrast of data. Apply APA standards to citation of sources

Competency

Examine the structure of the U.S. legal system and government as it relates to ethics, law, and core principles of public health.

Instructions

You have recently been promoted to Health Services Manager at Three Mountains Regional Hospital, a small hospital located in a mid-size city in the Mid-West. Three Mountains is a general medical and surgical facility with 400 beds. Last year there were approximately 62,000 emergency visits and 15,000 admissions. More than 6,000 outpatient and 10,000 inpatient surgeries were performed.

As a means to build trust between the organization and the patients, you have been tasked with the drafting of a memorandum (memo) to all employees that perform patient intake functions. The focus of this Memo is to highlight the necessary forms that need to be completed during the intake/admissions process and an explanation as to why they are necessary. Often patients are handed a form to fill out, but do not receive a proper explanation as to why it is necessary for them to provide the required information. Without the proper information, patients, more now than ever, are hesitant to provide all of the necessary information. You will need to address the following components in your memo:

  1. Introduction: Explain why you are sending this memo. Provide an overview of the patient trust issues and why it is important for the employees to be able to discuss each of the forms with the patients during the intake process.
  2. List of the Required Forms: List and describe each of the required forms at admission.
  3. Importance of each form to the organization: For each form you list, you will need to add why that form is important to the organization and necessary for the patient to complete.
  4. Conclusion: In this part, you will wrap up the memo and provide additional resources available to the employees if they have further questions.
  5. Proper Memo Formatting: Â This a professional document and needs to be structured as a memo and not as an essay. You will still need to supply both in text and full citations for the sources of your information. If you need further assistance with how to structure a memo, click on this link.

Continuity of Operations Planning King Fahad Hospital Madinah Paper

/in /by

I’m trying to learn for my Business class and I’m stuck. Can you help?

Overview:

Continuity of operations refers to the process of ensuring that agencies, governments, businesses, etc. are able to continue to function when struck by disaster or a catastrophic event. Such a scenario could be sudden onset or long term problem. Regardless, the disaster life cycle applies to the approach to handling such cataclysmic events. Traditionally, governments were limited in their abilities to assist the private sector in responding to or recovering from disasters short of supporting infrastructure and bringing back utilities. However, this is changing as we speak under the leadership of the current FEMA director. Partnerships between the public and private sector, bringing business leaders into the loop regarding community preparedness and educational opportunities are just some of the changes which have been embraced within community emergency management in the last five years. Business and the private sector have many best practices which could aid and improve local governments in the setting of a disaster and the two would do well to learn from each others’ strengths.

Assignment:

Using the FEMA document under the name “coop_multi_year_plan_guide” in the attachment, identify the crucial components of a viable “FPC 65” COOP plan. Identify a ‘Critical Infrastructure / Key Resource’ organization for your COOP plan, provide a description of the CIKR function provided by the organization, and delineate the ‘essential functions and activities’ required to provide that function or service.

The FEMA document attached as coop-multi-year_plan is most helpful and must be followed step by step, word by word.

To clarify….

Review the FEMA Multi-Year Guide.

The entity we gonna work on is “King Fahad General Hospital in Medina City, Saudi Arabia” Be careful please because in Saudi Arabia we have a lot of King Fahad Hospitals, the one I want the work on is the one in Medina City

Determine what critical infrastructures and key resources the entity provides and uses.

Describe briefly why each CI/KR is important.

Use Annex C of the FEMA plan as a guide to write a brief report of your entity’s COOP.

NOTE – You must use the 11 categories in the Planning Document when you write your COOP.

You MUST do your own work, and not simply post a COOP that already exists.

Responding to Disaster Mental Health Effectively Discussion

/in /by

Need help with my Health & Medical question – I’m studying for my class.

 

POST 1-

A major disaster requires competent people to respond to mental health effectively. Competencies for this kind of role require personal characteristics such as motivation, traits, and self-concept. Responders who have experience in dealing with disasters are considered to have particular traits such as adaptability, a sense of humor, flexibility, patience, and being productive in actual emergencies. It is also essential for a responder to have attributes that cannot be instilled through training. Therefore, competency does not entirely rely on education and training. King et al. (2010) state that critical characteristic in a responder who is competent in disaster mental health is that they are not limited in knowledge and skills, which must include in disaster training.

Some attributes cannot be instilled through disaster training. Qualities like patience are challenging to teach, and if a responder lacks it, it becomes ineffective in disaster mental health. Some responders may be unable to adapt to the conditions they have been sent to serve. Lack of adaptability traits lowers effectiveness, thus affecting their performance. It, therefore, presents a barrier to disaster mental health if the responders are not flexible. Flexibility is an outstanding personality trait for a responder to have as different victims are handled differently, and every disaster is different from the other. A responder should also be accommodative, and lacking this trait will hinder their effectiveness in disaster mental health.

I believe that I have a personal trait of being helpful in any task given. Therefore, as a responder, I would be very useful by offering my services more than the expected standards, to achieve the intended results. Having a sense of humor is also one of my traits, and it would be crucial as I will be accommodative and easy to talk to and lift moods of the victims. Stress management would be a challenge to me as the environment present is tense on a regular basis, and there is the fear of being seen as weak since it will show that you are not up to the job.

To be a qualitatively effective Disaster Mental Health responder
A Disaster Mental Health responder (DMHR) is individuals that offer disaster health need to people during all the phases of disaster. Therefore a DMHR needs to be mentally and physically healthy before addressing the needs of the people in the community. A DMHR requires to possess skills that are essential in situational awareness. Situational awareness enables the responder to implement and develop various plans necessary for mitigating issues or disasters (King et al., 2015).

Necessary Character Traits and Skills
An effective DMHR needs to possess character traits such as the ability to work as a team, excellent communication, quick and informed decision making, flexibility, and empathy. In most cases, disaster management requires individuals to work in teams for effective management. The ability to work as a team helps ensure that the roles are well shared, and individuals can work on specific issues effectively. The concept of empathy has been a substantial subject of interest in the medical field in general. Empathy is a real emotional response to the apparent emotional experience of others. It is mainly the capability to comprehend the emotional state of other individuals and the skill in treating and handling them considering their emotional reactions. Excellent communication skills are also essential in addressing most of the procedures and instructions required to be directed to be people coherently. Quick decision making is the primary skill since disasters are unplanned, and individuals need to develop plans to mitigate them quickly. Emergency occurs in different regions and in different environments. Therefore, A DMHR needs to be flexible and quickly adapt to the changing climate.

Barriers to an Effective DMHR
Some of the character traits that can hinder effectiveness as a DMHR include micromanagement, creativity, and lack of interpersonal characteristics. Micromanagement involves the conditions where an individual wants to lead in every aspect and, therefore, does not support teamwork. Lack of creativity can prevent effectiveness since creativity helps ensure that all the necessary needs are well addressed and worked upon by the teams. Lack of personal traits disturb an individual’s ability to relate to fellow team members and prevents the establishment of collaboration among the members.

My Trait
If I were administered the role of a DMHR, most of my traits would be relevant and increase my operation’s effectiveness. My ability to work as a team and to be a top thinker would serve well as a DMHR. These character traits would play a significant role in making quick decisions and addressing any issues effectively and efficiently. I am also an excellent communicator who is also essential as a DMHR. With these and other traits, I think the one aspect that can be challenging for me is that I am a bit impatient, which I think can be a big drawback within this field. Giving the affected people time to spell out their ordeals also gives you a better position to understand them and provides the best help that they need in their situation.

Disaster mental health (DMH) requires compassion, patience, creativity, communication, and determination to let survivor express their grief and decrease the level of anxiety. DMH workers should start off building a rapport with the person to feel comfortable, such as small talk. This helps the survivor to relax and further expand their emotions. However, the DMH worker must take it step by step in not being overwhelmed by the survivor’s emotions. According to Halpren and Tramotin (2007), good self-care and maintain boundaries in order to provide sympathy while continuing to have a professional identity.

To be an ineffective DMH worker would be the complete opposite of the requirements mentioned in the paragraph above. Being insensitive, impatient, and arrogant of the survivor’s mental health problems can lead to neglecting their needs and feelings. This can create the survivor to not openly be vulnerable due to the fear of being judged or hurt.

The character traits and skills I can see myself portrayed as a DMH worker are compassion and patience. The only way this can be relatable for me was during my time as a behavior technician, or interventionist. It was a good experience to learn about children’s behaviors in autism spectrum disorder. It developed my skills to patiently build rapport with the child and show compassion when educating them to overcome or adapt, certain behaviors, such as being aggressive or have tantrums. It always puts a smile on my face when a child progresses from negative to positive behaviors. Thus, experience utilizing compassion and patience, I believe, can further be helpful as a DMH worker.

The only challenge for the role of a DMH worker, in my opinion, is setting your boundaries. When listening to the survivor’s experience, you want to empathize with them but not provide a comparison of your own life experience. Even though the connection is essential to build rapport with the survivor, separating personal life and career as a DMH worker displays the right practice decisions.
