...with Mental Illness One problem that those suffering with mental illness face is the fact that the term mental illness can mean just about anything that involves the psychological or emotional struggles. Mental illness is harder to diagnose than a physical illness and comes with much more of a stigma. Those suffering with mental illness face a life full of obstacles. Many have a hard time finding or keeping a job and end up homeless. Those suffering with mental illness need a place to be treated that does not cause them more harm. Institutions are not set up for those with minor mental health issues and can cause more harm if the patient is not treated appropriately. Those with a mental illness may not be able to properly care for themselves and need and need someone to help them learn basic living skills. If they do not have a caring family member to do this they may end up living in destitute. The Community Mental Health Centers Act of 1963 was put in place to offer service to those with mental illness. The plan was to cover five main goals, which consist of in-patient and out patient care, emergency care, partial hospitalization and education. Hospital emergency rooms may offer help to those with emergency mental breakdowns. Local health departments offer training and education to those with loved ones with mental illness. Most states offer in-patient and out patient mental hospitals that can help those who have nowhere else to turn due to financial...

...risk, assess individual risk and its impact on performance, cost, and schedule of the overall project and develop an action plan that handles individual risk. RISK PLAN OBJECTIVES The scope of this risk assessment assessed the system’s use of resources and controls (implemented or planned) to eliminate and/or manage vulnerabilities exploitable by threats internal and external to the Project. If exploited, these vulnerabilities could result in: • Unauthorized disclosure of data • Unauthorized modification to the system, its data, or both • Denial of service, access to data, or both to authorized users This Risk Assessment Report evaluates the confidentiality (protection from unauthorized disclosure of system and data information), integrity (protection from improper modification of information), and availability (loss of system access) of the system. Recommended security safeguards will allow management to make decisions about security-related initiatives. PROJECT RISKS This risk assessment methodology and approach was conducted using the guidelines in NIST SP 800-30, Risk Management Guide for Information Technology Systems. The assessment is broad in scope and evaluates security vulnerabilities affecting confidentiality, integrity, and availability. The assessment recommends appropriate security safeguards, permitting management to make knowledge-based decisions about security-related initiatives. The methodology addresses the following types of controls: • Management...

...were often segregated from the regular classroom. Mainstreaming began the process of integrating them with nondisabled students, and inclusion takes the process further by creating a web of services. Special education is often times as diverse as the schools and school systems that incorporate it. Most common approaches include: self-contained classrooms, pullout services, and inclusion. Inclusion is most effective when regular education and special education teachers closely collaborate on instructional adaptations for learners with exceptionalities (Heward, 2009). In every classroom there are students with exceptionalities. These exceptionalities may include a student who has an IEP and needs extra accommodations/modifications or a gifted student that needs to be challenged beyond the curriculum. As an educator, one needs to make sure that each student is able to succeed in the classroom. Talent, imagination and skill are attributes teachers must possess. When working with children who have diverse needs these attributes must be perfected (Fogel, 2005). There may be some areas in which an educator may need assistance as how to approach a particular lesson and this is when collaboration may be effective. Collaboration is, also, an important key in helping a student with special needs to succeed. Students with exceptionalities are faced with unique challenges when it comes to academics inside the classroom. The type of disability may vary depending on the student....

...1. What is the difference between a risk analysis (RA) and a business impact analysis (BIA)? a. Risk assessment (RA) is a structure discipline that must discover the threats, vulnerabilities, and values of an organization’s assets. A key factor in risk assessment is the determination of the likelihood of an adverse event affecting an Organization, process, or system. Risk assessment is a valuable tool to help the organization recognize itself threat environment and ensure that the steps are undertaken to minimize the resulting risks to an acceptable level. b. Business Impact Analysis (BIA) is the key to a successful BCP implementation. Understanding and standardizing Enterprise business process names is critical to the success of the BIA. The intent of the BIA process is to help the organization’s management appreciate the magnitude of the operational and financial impacts associated with a disaster or serious disruption. When they understand, management can use this knowledge to calculate the recovery time objective (RTO) for time-critical support services and resources. For most Organizations, these support resources include: Facilities - IT infrastructure (including voice and data communications networks) - Hardware and software - Vital records Data - Business partners The connection is made when each of the time-critical business processes is mapped to the above supporting resources. 2.

Supplemental Factors for Supervisory Staff Members Performance Appraisal Information Sheet Appraising the performance of staff is the single most important job duty associated with the role of supervision, and one of the most complex in terms of skill. Competent appraisal involves the supervisor in setting goals and standards, clearly communicating performance expectations, assisting staff in accomplishing the job to be done, and evaluating the results. This is performance management, accomplished day-by-day, and in response to changing needs, assignments and the requirements of the job. This formal review process is designed to work with and encourage the informal day to day practice of performance management, while providing a framework in support of salary adjustments, promotion and employment decisions. The University of Arizona requires that employees receive a formal performance appraisal once a year (typically on the anniversary date of hire into the position), with new employees receiving reviews at three months and six months as part of the probationary process.
