 Every day during this semester students will do “a random act of kindness” and keep a log of what you do and the reaction of the individual receding the kindness.
At the end of the semester, you will be writing about your experience. An act of kindness may be as simple as a smile. This DB will not be graded if the journal part of the assignment has not been completed.

Here is an example of a journal:

Monday – A student on Palm Walk dropped their books and I stopped to help them. Reaction- Student was very grateful for my help; said thank you and left with a smile.
Your writing must be clear, concise, and 400-500 words. Please check your grammar and your spelling. Use examples from your journal as you address the guided questions below:

A certain couple are expecting a baby only to discover that the child is diagnosed with anencephaly, a fatal genetic disorder in which the cerebral cortex of the brain does not develop at all.

Based on your readings of Ch. 4, how would you apply the decision making process to the following scenario:

A certain couple are expecting a baby only to discover that the child is diagnosed with anencephaly, a fatal genetic disorder in which the cerebral cortex of the brain does not develop at all. Their physician has recommended ending the pregnancy immediately, not because there is any threat to the mother (other than normal labor and delivery). The physician suggests that ending the pregnancy is analogous to turning off life support with a terminally ill patient for whom death is imminent.

Be sure to answer in 300-500 words. Cite your sources in MLA.

Thomas Szasz, claims that there is no neutral, value-free psychiatry and thus that most, if not all, psychiatric diagnoses are of subjective or socially-biased opinions. Do you agree with Szasz or not? Explain why you agree or why you do not, and show what public health arrangement you believe is necessary to resolve the problem?

1. Before the mid-1960s, the mentally-ill people were likely to be institutionalized. However, the deinstitutionalization movement of the 1960s and 70s resulted in the case that the mentally-disabled tend to get imprisoned. In other words, deinstitutionalization has led to the criminalization of the mentally ill people in our society because they are considered sane. The unique difficulty of the problem is that most cases of psychosis are “disorders of thought” and thus that there has always been the suspicion that the clinical diagnosis of psychosis was, in fact, a socio-ethical judgment. That is why the 20th-century psychiatrist and professor of psychiatry, Thomas Szasz, claims that there is no neutral, value-free psychiatry and thus that most, if not all, psychiatric diagnoses are of subjective or socially-biased opinions. Do you agree with Szasz or not? Explain why you agree or why you do not, and show what public health arrangement you believe is necessary to resolve the problem?

2. In all U.S. states, the age of majority is generally defined as 18 years, but minors around 12 years of age are legally allowed to seek HIV testing without parents’ approval including care related to sexual activity. Do you believe this practice is ethically justifiable or not? Discuss by reference to the violation of parental autonomy, state beneficence, etc.

3. Imagine that you are the CEO of a pharmaceutical company which produces HIV/AIDS drugs. You have the responsibility to the company’s shareholders and employees. But you want to act in the public interest with regard to the HIV/AIDS pandemic in the U.S. How would you make it happen? Write a brief letter to the shareholders based on their ethical vision.

4. It is reported that in the U.S. around $2.0 to 2.3 billion could be saved by reducing injuries caused by gun violence roughly the same cost to spent on obesity and diabetes. However, the advocates of gun ownership, pointing out an individual’s autonomy, strongly resist the government’s gun control. Do you believe that in public health debate the individual’s autonomy can be considered to trump the state’s nonmaleficent concern coupled with the economic concern? Discuss.

Question Description
Assignment: Integrating Quality and Patent Safety with Technology

Technology may assist in supporting healthcare quality and safety. Technology can help reduce costs, advance quality care, improve patient safety, and increase health outcomes. For example, notification technology that quickly delivers critical test results can help ensure that once a diagnosis is made, the results get to the right care team members.

For this Assignment, you will conduct research to find some type of technology and its potential to improve healthcare in some regard. This can be a piece of equipment, device, implant, software, and/or other technology. You will describe how it can prevent patient harm, produce better outcomes, and meet IOM domains. You will also determine if the selected technology provides data that can be used in performance metrics.

To prepare for this Assignment:

Find a resource regarding a new technology or new equipment used in healthcare that improves quality and/or patient safety.
Write a 1- to 2-page paper.

In your paper:

Describe the new piece of equipment, device, implant, software, or other technology discussed in the scholarly resource that you selected.
Explain how the new equipment, device, implant, software, or other technology improves quality and/or patient safety.
Explain which of the IOM domains or National Patient Safety Goals are improved by the equipment, device, implant, software, or other technology discussed in the scholarly resource that you selected.
Identify any data collection the technology performs. If data are collected, describe how the data can be used for quality or safety purposes. If the device does not collect data, propose data that you think your device should collect and how the proposed data could be used for quality or safety purposes.
Support your work with specific citations from sources, as appropriate. Your citations must be in APA format.
