Your final assignment for this course will be to create a Community Policing Proposal to a fictional community.

Your instructor will be assigning you a fictional community profile this week. You will use this profile to inform the design of your Community Policing Proposal. The final proposal will include the following elements:

• A description of the community and its needs 
• A step-by-step implementation plan designed with the specific needs of your community in mind 
• A practical strategy that can be used to communicate your community policing model to the community and the law enforcement organization 

Part 1

Your instructor will send you a brief description of a community. Upon receiving the community profile, create a name for your community. Provide a written description of the community and a description of the crime issue at hand. You may add unique details to the description of the community or the issue if you think it will benefit your assignment. Submit a written description of the community for which you will be creating a Community Policing Proposal.

Part 2

Describe how federal, state, and local law enforcement work together in criminal investigations. Answer the following questions:

• What is the scanning, analyze, response, and assessment (SARA) model? 
• How does this model apply to community policing? Give 2 examples. 
• Can the same models for partnerships be used in every jurisdiction? Why or why not? 

Create a name for this community with the following characteristics:

  Of the people living in this area, 82% are African American; 0.12% are Hispanic; 4% are Caucasian; 1% are Asian; and 0.1% are either Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, American Indian or Alaskan Native, of some other race, or of two or more races.

  41% of the population is over the age of 65. 30% are of working age (18–64). 29% are under 18, and 5% of that population are under 5 years old.

  The median household income for the study area was $23,000, compared to a state median of $50,000, as estimated in the most recent Census American Community Survey.

  This community has experienced a dramatic spike in gang activity.

You may provide additional details about the community if you feel they will benefit your Community Policing Proposal.

Module 04 Content

1. A strategic plan is a document used to structure and communicate organizational goals. It is also used to mitigate risks and alleviate the potential for legal cases. Barbara receives information that there is an additional, more pressing issue at a satellite clinic that is not documented in the original UCCO case. This issue relates to the emergency care clinic, which is used to treat patients with trauma-related injuries. The clinic has been over-utilized for the past year, resulting in stressed staffing, overwhelming costs, and decreasing quality of patient care and customer satisfaction. Staff productivity is affected by use of personal cell phones and clinic equipment is often used for social media.

   In one particular case, a 13-year old patient was seen for trauma care by the UCCO Emergency Clinic. The patient’s parents make it clear to the staff that they are not willing to give consent to any procedure involving blood products or transfusion. The risks are explained to the parents. The patient arrived unconscious but shortly regains consciousness. After the parents leave the room, the patient tells the nurse that she is afraid of dying and would like any care, including blood procedures and products, to save her life. The nurse later finds out that the rejection by the parents was due to religious reasons. The nurse quickly discusses the case with fellow employees, one of which posts comments on her social media page using a clinic-owned computer. The nursing director give a verbal warning to all involved nurses and staff.

   Visit the Rasmussen online Library and search for a minimum of 3 articles covering the topics of ethics, healthcare professionalism, and federal legislations. Conduct academic research using the library’s databases, like:

   • CINAHL
   • Discovery
   • Business Source Complete via EBSCO
   • Business via ProQuest
   • In the databases use basic search languages (controlled vocabulary/keywords) to determine ethics laws specific to this situation. Some keywords to consider are healthcare professional code of ethics. Then, refine your searches based on your search results. Make sure to include a minimum of 3 credible, academic sources in your paper.
     Using your research, address the following points in a minimum of 3-page report:
   • Was the nursing manager legally compliant with to protect patient information? Explain the legal risks and support with federal legislations and professional expectations, such as HIPAA and professional codes of ethics.
   • What bearing does the age and religious requests have on the patient’s case? Are there medical and ethical laws that supersede the parent’s requests?
   • What is the role and importance of communication among UCCO facilities, particularly in reference to compliance and ethical standards?
   • What are the ethical and professional factors of using social media?
   • Were the reactions to the patient’s case illegal, or just unethical? How does this align with UCCO’s mission, values, and strategic action plans? How does it compare to your own personal beliefs and values?
   • Remember to integrate citations accurately and appropriately for all resource types; use attribution (credit) as a method to avoid plagiarism. Use NoodleBib to document your sources and to complete your APA formatted reference page and in-text citations.

     Instructions
     You are currently working at NCLEX Memorial Hospital in the Infectious Diseases Unit. Over the past few days, you have noticed an increase in patients admitted with a particular infectious disease. You believe that the ages of these patients play a critical role in the method used to treat the patients. You decide to speak to your manager, and together you work to use statistical analysis to look more closely at the ages of these patients.

     You do some research and put together a spreadsheet of the data that contains the following information

   • Client number
   • Infection disease status
   • Age of the patient
   • Deliverable 7 – Statistical Analysis Report.xlsx

     You are to put together a PowerPoint presentation that explains the analysis of your findings which you will submit to your manager. The presentation should contain all components of your findings. For review, the components of the report should include:

   1. Brief overview of the scenario and variables in the data set
   2. Discussion, calculation, and interpretation of the mean, median, mode, range, standard deviation, and variance
   3. Discussion, construction, and interpretation of the 95% confidence interval
   4. Explanation of the full hypothesis test
   5. Conclusion
   6. The calculations should be performed in your spreadsheet that you will also submit to your manager. You can find additional information on what to add to your PowerPoint presentation in this Word document. 

      Deliverable 7 – PowerPoint Instructions.docx

      Use the questions in the worksheet as your guide for the contents of your presentation.

      For your final deliverable, submit your PowerPoint presentation and the Excel workbook showing your work. Do not submit your Word document.
