...Unit 3 Case Study 5454 unread replies.5454 replies. Bellow you will find a clinical case study. The case study starts with a description of a patients’ medical history, followed by discussion question/s. First, you have to analyze the medical history of the patient. As you read the patient’s information: * Highlight any risk factors that might exist, existing medical conditions, present signs and symptoms or complains that the patient is suffering from. * Analyze the results of any diagnostic tests that were performed. Diagnostic tests include, physical exams, blood test, radiologic tests (x-ray, CT scans, etc.), and other functional tests. * Relate the medical treatment used to the underlying pathology. * Propose clinical management plan for the patient’s condition, and possible prognosis. You are encouraged to discuss the cases with other students and in groups, however, each student should submit the analysis of the case study in their own words through discussions. Students should submit their case study through the “Discussion” link AND the “Turnitin Dropbox” link for that case study available on the course’s main page. If you fail to submit your case study through both links your case study will not be graded. Turnitin is an automated system which instructors can use to quickly and easily compare each student's assignment with billions of web sites, as well as an enormous database of student papers that grows with each submission.Accordingly, you...

...You are here: Home / Transmedia Storytelling / Case Study Example: The Three Little Pigs Case Study Example: The Three Little Pigs If the Three Little Pigs were told as a transmedia story it might be designed like this: The basic story would be told in an anchoring medium, such as a novel, TV show, or film. The wolf has a companion website would give us opportunities to learn more him, the path that led the wolf to his current antisocial tendencies, and give us a glimpse of his inner genius, such as showing his mathematical schematics of the impact of wind velocity on the materials of straw, sticks and bricks. We would also be able to find maps of the turnip field, apple tree, local market and County Fair and strategic attack positions. We would follow the wolf as he plots and adjusts his plans at each volley by the pigs. On a Ning network, Wolf supporters form Team Wolf and contribute strategy, information, additional maps, and alternate endings and plot developments. On a blog, the first little pig details the family history, his paranoid suspicions of a dark figure lurking about his house that led to the pigs decision to live apart rather than together. An Anime comic takes fans on the first little pig’s visions of a pig super hero saving the world and avenging evil as personified by wolves. The second little pig Tweets his chronicle, seeking advice on sustainable building materials and the relative merits of straw and sticks from other Twitterers, and relaying breaking...

...Case study for NutroBalance. Purpose The purpose of this case study is to get you used to incorporating Microsoft Project charts and reports into your project’s progress reports. By now you should be able to work through the mechanics of loading tasks, predecessors, resources, and costs into MS Project. But the real challenge facing project managers is how to interpret the data in MS Project and how to make it “useful” for you and your stakeholders. In this case study you will be given a scenario and asked to load the project information into Microsoft Project. However, the purpose of this case study is bigger than just properly loading the Microsoft Project file. This case study requires you to interpret the MS Project results and incorporate the issues and results in your communication with key stakeholders. Your output of this case study explores the “softer” side of project management, including how to communicate your results to your key stakeholders in a clear and concise manner. The point of the case study is to show you that projects experience change over time, which forces you, the project manager, to modify and adapt your project. This case study is broken into three sections, Sections 1, 2, and 3. In each section you will be given some information on your project and then asked to “respond” to some of your stakeholders. Even though there are three sections in the case study, you will only submit ONE document, due Week 6. This document will include your answers...

...Case Studies for Conflict Resolution: A key element in civil rights training Wisconsin WIC CONFLICT RESOLUTION: CASE STUDIES The following case studies match the scenarios in the online training. Review (watch or read) each scenario, and then answer the questions, below. Think about what you have learned and identify a conflict resolution technique that you would use in each situation. Case Study #1 Julia just finished a certification appointment for Maria, a participant who has cerebral palsy. Maria has some difficulty speaking and uses a wheelchair for mobility.As they head toward the door, Maria says something to Julia. Julia replies, “I’m sorry, I didn’t understand what you said.” Maria repeats her comment. Julia looks confused and says, “One more time please?” Maria repeats her comment in a louder voice. Looking a bit flustered, Julia says, “Okay, well, maybe we can talk about that next time.” Julia reaches for the door and says, “Let me get that for you.” Maria, at the same moment, angrily pushes the button for the automatic door and rolls away. Julia walks back to her office feeling embarrassed and that she is no good at working with disabled participants. Questions to consider: 1. What could Julia have done differently to avoid or minimize this conflict? What could Julia learn from this experience? (Hint – try using a Creative Response) 2. Write the dialogue for the next time Julia sees Maria at the clinic. Julia says “I’m sorry...

...Business Ethics Case Study #1 - A Good Team Player Having done well as a staff accountant in the accounts payable section of a major industrial firm for several years since his graduation from college, Steven felt that he had learned much about the “ins” and “outs” of survival in an intensely bureaucratic organization. It is thus not surprising that he was relaxed and unconcerned about his circumstances at the company as he entered the employee lounge to attend the late-afternoon welcoming reception for his new supervisor. The new manager of accounts payable, Kristin, had been transferred to Steven’s division from a similar position in another subsidiary of the company because of her proven talent for organizing and improving the efficiency of operations there. A no-nonsense type of manager, Kristin was experienced and determined to perform her new assignment with the same vigor that had brought her so much success throughout her career. At the reception, Kristin circulated through the room, introducing herself to her new subordinates and asking each of them if they had any suggestions that would help make the payables section a better place to work. When she approached Steven, he told her about something that had been on his mind lately: that people seemed to him to gain promotions and be given opportunities to work overtime based on who liked them, and not on the quality of their work. In reply, Kristin politely stated that she would do everything that she could to...

...Case Study I Medical Information System Arthur Contato Poliseli Edward Ruppel Project Management I BA 3110 DAY AA February 23, 2015 Medical Information System Summary of the Facts of the Case Maggie Pressman, Paul Goldberg, and Steve Youngblood are equal partners in their own consulting business, which is specialized in design and install computer-based information systems for medicals. These system usually includes patient records, prescriptions, billings, and medical insurance processing, sometimes the medical customers have a manual system and want to computerize it, or they have an existing computer system that needs to be upgraded. Generally, the consulting business provides the necessary hardware as software to its customers, they also install and teach the employees how to use the new resource, because of that, the cost of most of these projects ranges from $10,000 to $40,000, depending on the amount of hardware needed. Dr. Houser, one of the doctors for whom Paul had done a project, left her private practice to join a large regional medical practice, which has six offices throughout the region, and two of that also include a pharmacy. So, Dr. Houser contacted Paul to see if he was interested in submitting a proposal to upgrade the information system for the entire regional medical practice, this project will include integrate the six offices and two pharmacies into one system, because presently, each office has its own system. Paus discovered that a team...

...Book Review 1 – ‘Children’s Solution Work’ by Insoo Kim Berg & Therese Steiner I chose to do my first book review of the year on ‘Children’s solution work’, as I was intrigued as to how this modality can be applied to children. My practice to date involves only adults so I am very keen to adopt tools and tips to effectively talk to children in a therapeutic way. I was definitely not disappointed! This book clearly demonstrated how the Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) model can be applied to the nonverbal, playful and creative habits of children. The books extensive use of examples and case studies in various contexts and situations was instrumental in demonstrating the creative techniques and strategies for working with children without relying exclusively on language. I will use this book review to discuss some of the ideas, techniques and cases that really stood out for me with the hope that I may one day incorporate them into my clinical work. “There is good harmony between SFBT and children because there are so many similarities between how children think and make sense of the world around them and the assumptions and procedures of SFBT.” One excellent example of this is the child’s relative indifference to the “cause” of a problem, over their need/desire to “fix” it. I encounter this on a daily basis with my own children. I often find myself inquiring about the cause of their problems, feeling that by doing so I will gain greater insight into their thoughts...

...CASE STUDY - I PRATHAMESH STEEL (PVT.) LTD. Prathamesh Steel (Pvt.) Ltd. founded 15 years before by Mr. A.M. Bapat was having booming time. At that time, Mr. Bapat, worked both in the office and in the factory and knew his men and they knew him. Production standard were always maintained and labour turnover was practically non-existing. As the business mushroomed, the number of employees has progressively increased. Thus, Mr. Bapat's greetings and conversation with his workers became less frequent. In fact, he had so many things to do, that he could no longer supervise the factory. Thus, he hired another man, Mr. Godse as a plant supervisor. As this time though the number of workers increased to about 500, labour turnover and absenteeism increased along with the labour cases. The only thing that decreased was productivity. In order to meet the situations, Mr. Bapat granted substantial increase in wages which were already high and made some arrangements for increment earnings based on merit rating on seniority. Yet labour turnover and absenteeism continue at a high rate. On investigation, it was found that the new plant supervisor lacked the patience and understanding which is necessary for dealing with the employees. When something was found wrong, he was scolding the employees but no attempt was made to find the case of faulty work. Meanwhile, labour unrest developed. The ,Worker began to complain about working on Saturdays and not having either time or facilities change...

Introduction Various factors caused the emergence of power play and office politics, however, essentially it is the failure of Green to exercise effective organisation power and politics resulted in the present situation and failure to resolve it due to communication. Analysis A. Perception Lens A negative halo towards Davis was imbedded in Green when McDonald revealed Davis’s opposition to his promotion. Though there is no direct evidence of this, individual behaviours are influenced by the perception of reality rather than through objective understanding (Buchanan and Huczynski 2010). Hence probable reason Green not seeking much guidance from Davis despite McDonald’s advice. Furthermore, Green’s perception of Davis holding a personal grudge for his direct budget meeting confrontation, thus ensuing his avoidance of Davis. This eventually became the demise of Green’s career–a self-fulfilling prophecy. B. Personality Lens According to the big five trait clusters of personality, the circumstantial events suggest that Green is an extravert, which is manifested...

...ISSUES IN ACCOUNTING EDUCATION Vol. 24, No. 2 May 2009 pp. 237–252 If You Need Love, Get a Puppy: A Case Study on Professional Skepticism and Auditor Independence Robert L. Braun and H. Lynn Stallworth ABSTRACT: The purpose of this teaching case is to expand students’ understanding of the concepts of professional skepticism and independence. The case is based on an actual incident and illustrates the exercise of professional skepticism by a staff auditor who finds himself in the uncomfortable situation of accusing a friend of fraud. The case demonstrates the difficult personal and professional choices that auditors must sometimes make. In analyzing the case, students consider auditor independence rules, as well as the concepts of independence in appearance and independence in mental attitude. Students are asked to identify the types of audit evidence and internal controls needed to detect and prevent the fraud, and to consider the appropriate audit response to an adverse situation. Keywords: auditing; professional skepticism; fraud; independence; internal controls; misappropriation of assets.
