Reassessment of Client Risks and Needs

/in /by

  

Review the following scenario:

· The client is a 32-year-old male who was released from incarceration 6 months ago. The client had previously been incarcerated for 2 years for two felony drug offenses due to possession and distribution of methamphetamine. He received treatment while incarcerated, but he relapsed and used methamphetamine 2 months after he was released. The client is positive for Hepatitis C, which he contracted while he was in prison. He was receiving medication for his condition until last month when he did not supply a required document to the Medicaid office on time. As a result, he lost his medical coverage.
 

The client has been married for 5 years, and he has a 3-year-old child. The client was diagnosed with bipolar disorder at age 28. The client has exhibited emotional outbursts and episodes of perpetrating domestic violence with his wife since his release from incarceration. The client obtained his GED at age 25, but he never attended college. The client also had a learning disorder of dyslexia during his adolescent years. He has minimal job skills, as he only worked at one job as a dishwasher for 2 months during his adult life. He primarily obtained income from selling drugs prior to incarceration.
 

The client is currently seeking employment, but he is experiencing difficulty obtaining employment due to his prior criminal conviction. 

Create a mind map of the needs of the client that fit in each category. Specify 3 needs in each of the following categories: 

· Health needs

· Social or relationship needs

· Problem-solving needs

· Emotional needs

· Belief or value needs

· Education or career needs

Create a second mind map of the risks of the client that fit in each category. Specify 3 risks in each of the following categories: 

· Health risks

· Social or relationship risks

· Problem-solving risks

· Emotional risks

· Belief or value risks

· Education or career risks

Answer the following questions in a 700-word essay:

· Why is it important to reassess the needs of a client after he or she is released from incarceration?

· What are some ways by which a person’s needs and risks can be mitigated to reduce the rate of recidivism once an offender is released from incarceration?

Format any citations according to APA guidelines

MGMT 701 Information Systems Business Management 

You will do research on some management information systems topic. The presentation will be made using your favorite presentation software (Microsoft Office, Libre Office etc.). Each project should have one particular focus, based upon a topic chosen from the list below: 

§ Business Intelligence. Business Intelligence is the exploration or mining of business data in search of meaningful patterns. Provide a brief overview of this technology and its relevance in business and government settings. In your presentation, make sure that you discuss the concepts of a data warehouse and data marts. 

§ Geographic Information Systems. GIS or spatial information systems are becoming an important component of business computing. However, GIS are ‘special’ in that they require special database and processing technology. Provide an introduction to GIS and its increasing relevance in business. 

§ IT Outsourcing. Provide an overview of the ‘outsourcing’ of software development phenomenon. How big a phenomenon is this? Is it growing? Why? What trends can be observed? What does it mean for the future of Western computing? 

§ DB Market. Who are the major players in the database market? At which sectors of the database market are their products targeted? Who is competing with whom? How big are these companies? Who owns them? What products do they offer? What role does database software play in their product portfolio? 

§ Disaster prevention and recovery. The laws of system entropy, natural disasters, acts of terror and computer crime are but some of the things that can destroy an organization’s information flow and storage. Explore how companies are protecting themselves against these mishaps. Are the information systems in our college properly protected against these things? If not, what advice would you have to mitigate this situation? 

§ Oracle vs. PeopleSoft. In the Spring of 2003 Oracle Corp. initiated a hostile takeover of PeopleSoft. Provide an overview of this conflict and the interests involved. Why did Oracle want PeopleSoft? What products did PeopleSoft offer and how do they relate to Oracle’s? What are enterprise computing and enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems and what were/are Oracle’s and PeopleSoft’s roles in this market? What strategies did Oracle Corp. use to convince PeopleSoft software users that the takeover was a ‘good thing?’ What is the current status of the conflict? 

§ W3C. Provide an overview of the World-Wide Web Consortium. Who are these people and what do they do? Who listens to them? What sort of influence do they have? What business processes do they follow? What is the relationship between W3C and so-called ‘open standards?’ 

§ Digital Asset Management. Digital Library (DL) technology provides new ways for businesses to manage their institutional memory. Provide an overview of DL technology, some of its implementations, meta data and meta data harvesting and briefly discuss some of its best-known products (e.g., Fedora, Digital Commons and DSpace). 

§ OSS Business Models. Provide an overview of the various business models that have been developed around Open Source Software. How do companies create businesses based on something that is free and open? Are these business models sustainable? Do they falsify business models based on exclusion; e.g., businesses based on patents? 

§ IBM, Microsoft, Oracle, Google and Apple are all technology companies. Yet each of them ‘rode’ the .com bust rather differently. Provide an overview of these companies, their products, markets and financial performance. Compare the trajectories of their stock prices for the last 10 years or so and try to explain the different patterns. Finally, speculate on the future of these companies. 

§ RFID. For some time now, RFID has been an up and coming wireless technology. Provide an overview of RFID technology, its promises, potential and actual uses and some of the more controversial issues surrounding this technology. 

§ CRM. Customer Relations Management (CRM) is an important component of marketing. To support all aspects of CRM, various companies have developed extensive suites of so-called CRM software. Provide an overview of the functionality of these packages, their vendors (who are the main players? e.g., Siebel (now Oracle)) and their impact on the management of customer relations. 

§ Acquiring a Web presence. How do companies acquire a web presence? The easy –and uninteresting– answer would be that they buy hosting from a Web hosting company. But how does it really work? How does your company acquire (own) its domain name? Who sells them and who regulates them? And how do computers on the Web find your web site? And how do Google and other search engines get to know about your Web site? Also, important: what is all of this going to cost you? Who builds and maintains your Web pages? 

§ XBRL or eXtensible Business Reporting Language is a new standard for exchanging and reporting business financial data. It is an implementation of the by now very popular and intensively used XML or eXtensible Markup Language. Since its invention in the late 1990s, XML has revolutionized and standardized electronic data exchange. As a consequence, businesses can now easily share information with each other. This has profound consequences for all business fields including finance, accounting and most of all, marketing. 

§ Closed source and open source software. In the age of technology and automation, software is being used more and more in day-to-day tasks. No matter what type of uses the software has, there are two overarching types: closed source and open source. Compare and explain the differences, e.g., security, innovation, price, quality. (MS Windows vs Linux, MS Office vs Libre Office, Photoshop vs Gimp, Windows Media Player vs VLC, Chrome vs Chromium) 

You are expected to upload the presentation (10-20 slides)

Assignment: Workplace Environment Assessment

/in /by

Clearly, diagnosis is a critical aspect of healthcare. However, the ultimate purpose of a diagnosis is the development and application of a series of treatments or protocols. Isolated recognition of a health issue does little to resolve it.

In this module’s Discussion, you applied the Clark Healthy Workplace Inventory to diagnose potential problems with the civility of your organization. In this Portfolio Assignment, you will continue to analyze the results and apply published research to the development of a proposed treatment for any issues uncovered by the assessment.

To Prepare:

  • Review the Resources and examine the Clark Healthy Workplace Inventory, found on page 20 of Clark (2015).
  • Review the Work Environment Assessment Template.
  • Reflect on the output of your Discussion post regarding your evaluation of workplace civility and the feedback received from colleagues.
  • Select and review one or more of the following articles found in the Resources:
    • Clark, Olender, Cardoni, and Kenski (2011)
    • Clark (2018)
    • Clark (2015)
    • Griffin and Clark (2014)

Critical Reflection 4

/in /by

 

Take a moment to think about what you identify as one of the most meaningful, relevant lesson presented in the course readings or supporting materials, for Weeks 7 and 8. Select a 1-2 sentence direct quotation from the applicable learning resources that references, in a germane way, the issue, idea or concept key to that lesson. This quote will become the prompt for your Critical Reflection paper. That is, it will be a focal point of your paper, representing what you identify as an important takeaway that you hope others in class will consider as a deeply important truth or lesson of this class.  To support deep reflections on the topic, and the writing of the paper, the quotation should be relevant to a topic you can tie directly to your own (or others’) experiences, observations, and critical reasoning.  It should also be something you are willing to think critically about and are willing to discuss through the writing of this paper.

Step 2: Write your reflection essay. Once you have identified the quotation prompt that will anchor your reflection, place it at the top of your paper, below the title.  Follow the quote by a line space.  On the next line begin the body of your paper.  In 300 to 400 words (organized in meaningful, well organized paragraphs) defend your belief that there is an important truth or lesson, relevant to this course, to be gleaned from this quotation. Essentially, your job is to clarify what the lesson to be learned is and to then strongly (and thoughtfully) defend why you think the lesson is vital.

To help you think about your topic and to write a well-organized essay, consider (and answer) these questions:

  • What truth or lesson is being communicated by this quote?
  • Why is this truth or lesson so important?
  • How do your, or other’s, experiences and observations relate to and support this truth or lesson?
  • In what ways does this lesson make logical sense to you?
  • In what ways does this lesson make emotional sense to you?
  • How might this lesson be relevant to your, or others’, life and career?
  • Why do some fail to live as if this truth or lesson were important?
  • Why might some suggest this truth or lesson is not important?
  • How would you defend the truth of this lesson from those who disagree and believe the lesson is not important?
  • What can we do (at an individual, community, or society) to make this truth or lesson better recognized or practiced?

In the writing of your essay, present your answer to these questions in a sequence of well-developed paragraphs (not bullet points).

You are encouraged to be creative in your reflections.  Your reflections may include, when pertinent, links to media, pictures, or other supporting resources.

Step 3: Write a Discussion Question that Would Prompt Further Dialog on the Topic. End your reflection essay with a line space and then post a single, relevant, provocative, open-ended question that you believe would prompt further debate and reflection by readers on the topic addressed in your essay.

Step 4: Give Your Reflection a Title.  Be sure to give your paper a relevant, catchy but professional title.  The title should be something creative that sparks other learners to want to read your reflection. Your title should be like a creative, but good headline.  The title should be placed at the top of Page 1 of the document.

Formatting

Prepare your Critical Reflection paper according to the following guidelines:

  • Structure your paper utilizing APA style; this includes headers, subheadings, in-text citations, reference page, and general paper format (1-inch margins, double-spaced, 12-point font, etc.). The title of the paper should be correctly placed at the top of the page.
  • Post the quote at the top of the paper, following the title line, as instructed above.   Use proper in-text citation techniques. Once the quote is presented, begin the body of the essay on the next line, as directed above.
  • At the end of your essay, insert a line break and then present your proposed discussion question.
  • Submit as a single document in either Microsoft Word, PDF, or RTF format.
  • Your final Critical Reflection essay should be approximately 300-400 words (excluding the quote  and the reference page)

Scoring:

  • Title: 2 points
  • Quote: 8 points
  • Critical Reflection: 20 points
  • Discussion Question: 10 points
  • Writing mechanics (grammar, spelling, formatting, references): 10 points
