...Introduction: In this assessment I am going to describe the main physical, technological and human resources in the operation of JD Sports and I am going to explain how management of physical, technological and human resources can improve the performance of JD Sports. The main physical resources that I am going to describe are: Buildings:Buildings need to be suitable to the needs of JD Sports. This is because it involves considering the general layout where the customers will go as well as storage rooms. The buildings need to be kept clean in order to be is good condition for the business use. Facilities:Suitable facilities need to be available to the employees and to the customers of JD Sports. These involve rooms such as changing rooms where the customers can go and try the products on to see if the product fits them or not, toilets and kitchen for the staff to use when they are at work. These areas should be checked out for cleanliness and health and safety reasons. Materials:The stock level of materials need to be checked so that the goods are recorded when the levels decreases. As new supplies come in stock these must be checked for quality before being used it productions or put on displays for the customers to buy. Waste:All organisations have some amount of waste. In manufacturing this may involve waste or unwanted raw materials. This may also involve chemicals or waste products that can affect the environment. Organisations can reuse the waste if it’s possible...

...OVERALL CRITERION ACHIEVED - MCY Verbal feedback given P3 - YOU HAVE DESCRIBED THE MAIN PHYSICAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL RESOURCES REQUIRED IN THE OPERATION OF A SELECTED COMPANY M1 - You have explained how the management of human, physical and technological resources can improve the performance of a selected organisation In this document i will be covering the main physical and technological resources required in the operations of GCC. Physical Resources Emergence Provision The health and safety act of 1974 requires businesses to have provisions and plans for what to do in the case of an emergency. The business needs to be constantly thinking about the safety of their employee’s and how to keep them safe. ✓ This can be as little as a wet floor sign. The emergencies that businesses need to deal with are things like fires, power cuts and floods ect… With a fire for example GCC will have fire extinguishers around the buildings, they will also practice fire drills where they will practise how to get out of the building and where they go to so they can make sure everyone can get out of the building safely. This can improve the performance of GCC because they will be able to successfully take care of all the students and employees in the case of the emergencies that they have prepared for.✓ Plant and Machinery Plants and machinery are usually things that businesses buy or rent and the business will only get these things if they are necessary...

...For the pass this assignment will describe the investigations that are carried out to enable the diagnosis of these physiological disorders. For the merit this assignment will assess possible difficulties involved in the diagnosis from their signs and symptoms. P3 There are a range of tests and diagnostic procedures is needed to diagnose dementia, but there are several that are fairly commonly used to diagnose dementia. A GP might refer a person to a specialist to help with the diagnosis. For example, they may be referred to a clinical psychologist which is a healthcare professional who specialises in the assessment and treatment of mental health conditions. Another specialist who the GP might refer someone to is a psychiatrist and they are qualified medical doctor who has further training in treating mental health conditions. The specialist may be based in a memory clinic alongside other professionals who are experts in diagnosing, caring for and advising people with dementia and their families. A specialist will usually assess the mental abilities using a special questionnaire and one that is widely used is the mini mental state examination (MMSE). This involves being asked to carry out activities such as memorising a short list of objects correctly and identifying the current day of the week, month and year. However the MMSE is not used to diagnose Alzheimer's disease, but it is useful for assessing the level of mental impairment that a person with the condition may have...

...During the Vietnam War the American Army used many different Artillery systems. The Artillery systems used were; the Rock Island Arsenal M101, Rock Island Arsenal M102, M1 Pack Howitzer/M116, M114, M115 (8-Inch Howitzer M1), and finally the M59 (M2 Long Tom). The M1 Pack Howitzer was originally used during WWII, but found its way to the Vietnam War due to its ability to be broken down into pieces for easier mobility especially in marshlands. With a capable crew, they could fire between 3 and 4 rounds per minute and could range around 9,610 yards away. The typical HE round weighed 3.6kg (7.9lbs). The M114 howitzer was used from 1955-1975 before being replaced by the M198. The M114 howitzer is classified as a medium artillery piece due to the way...

...Battle of the 73rd Easting Headed due east on the afternoon of February 26, 1991, VII Corps was advancing with a front of four armored/mechanized divisions. In the center of this front, leading the way and conducting reconnaissance for the corps, was the 2nd Armored Cavalry Regiment (ACR). The 2nd ACR’s job was to locate the forward elements of the IRG divisions suspected to be in the area, fix them in place, then pass the heavy divisions of VIII Corps through their lines so that they could smash the elite Iraqi units with a single killing blow. It was a difficult assignment, made more so by the weather conditions. The winter of 1990/91 was one of the wettest on record in the Persian Gulf, and had been a major problem during the preceding six weeks of the Desert Storm air campaign. Now the wind was howling, causing a sandstorm that was grounding the Army’s aviation assets and limiting visibility to as little as a thousand meters. Air reconnaissance was limited mostly to signals intelligence data, which meant that finding where the IRG divisions were located, would be up to the 2nd ACR. Like the prairie horse soldiers of 150 years earlier, the troopers of the regiments would grope forward until they physically ran into the enemy, in this case the IRG Tawakalna Division. Generally known to be the best and most aggressive of the various IRG formations, Tawakalna was the unit that would bear the brunt of the coming battle with VII Corps. As 2nd ACR moved forward, the regiment’s...

...Effects of discrimination on patients and service users Effects: Marginalisation – If a person is discriminated against they may feel as though they are being pushed to the edge of society and being made to feel different. A Muslim patient in a hospital denied the opportunity to go to a prayer room. They may not be offered Halal food. Disempowered – To be deprived of power and made to feel weak and unimportant. An elderly woman with arthritis having people feed her and dress her when she can do it herself will start to feel worthless and she won’t have the power or the freedom to do things for herself. Low self-esteem – Beliefs about yourself as a human being will become negative and you will tend to focus on your weaknesses and mistakes. It may be hard to recognise the positives about yourself. You will blame yourself for any difficulties or failures that you have experienced. An emotional teenager being a target for bullying would result in that teenager having low self-esteem. Loss of self-identity – To feel like you now longer know who you are as a person, people around you have brought your feelings down to a level of which you just want to give up on life. So you may choose a life of crime or violence, affecting those around you as well as yourself because you are trying to fit in with those around you. Restricted opportunities – All types of discrimination may lead to a person not being able to use health and social provision and this can lead to poor life choices...

...P1: Explain concepts of equality, diversity and rights in relation to health and social care Equality, diversity and rights are the core elements in health and social care. It affects every single person using the health and social care sector as well as those working within them. It is important for health and social care workers to understand the importance of treating all individuals equally no matter their ethnicity, gender, race, beliefs, sexuality, education, language, background or skin colour. Individuals must all be treated equally; Equality in terms of rights, status or opportunities. This has become an important focus as there are laws and policies in all organisations regarding it to ensure that everyone in the organisation has same opportunities and choices, and no one is discriminated. The new equality act came into force in 2010; it consists of over 116 separate pieces of legislation into one act to protect the rights of individuals and to advance a fair and more equal opportunity for all. In health and social care sector this means everyone using or working within it should have equal opportunities, this can range from job opportunities to getting medical treatment options and that all individuals must receive same high-quality service. Diversity is the term used to describe the differences between individuals. It is important that individual and group diversities are recognised to ensure that everybody’s needs and requirements are understood and responded...

...Unit 2: Equality, Diversity and Rights in Health and Social Care Assessment Criteria: Explain the Concept of Equality, Diversity and Rights in Relation to Health and Social Care. Describe Discriminatory Practise in Health and Social Care. Describe the Potential Effects of Discriminatory Practice on Those Who Use Health or Social Care Services. Assess the Effects on Those Using the Service of Three Discriminatory Practices in Health and Social Care Settings. Equality: - The term equality according to Dictionary.com (2015) “Is the state or quality of being equal; correspondence in quantity, degree, value, rank and or ability” however I believe that this definition can establish misconception on the view of an individual, and so the more realistic concept behind ‘Equality’ in regards to the health and social industry; is for all individuals to be provided with equal opportunities to access of the concerning services, and for these users to be treated fairly (not equally) accordingly to the approaches used to meet their individual needs. Diversity: - Is a termed used to describe the promotion and celebrating of differences which an individual may have on the aspects of your own identity as well as others. Rights: - "They are the legal entitlements which we are all privileged to own, with the aim of allowing equal opportunities for all citizens in certain aspects of an individuals' life. There are a number of rights entitled under the enforcement of The Human Rights Act. 2000...

Managing resources at Tesco Physical-Buildings, Lorries and trucks, massive warehouses Technological-Scanning checkouts, Captures stock control systems, on line shopping, club card, Marketing Human-Recruitment, Training, motivation, staff appraisal. Physical-improvements on the physical management can improve the performance of Tesco as if they have bigger building in means that they have a larger space capacity which will enable them to make bigger stores around the world, if they have a bigger building then it will also allow them to put a variety of products in store and not just limited stock, if they had a smaller buildings then they would not be able to fit ass many products inside as they are able to do so now, there wouldn’t be any space for there large car park that almost every Tesco store has this very moment in time. Having Lorries and trucks can majorly improve performance at Tesco because having those facilities available there for them to use is a great help, lorries can carry a huge amount of stock from one store to another or from the warehouses back to Tesco stores, this would help save a lot of time in comparison to if they never had any lorries or trucks to help deliver their goods because then they would need to have a number of vans to carry their products back and forth, this would waste allot of petrol and allot of money, so having lorries...

One of the particles, of mass 5.0 x 10-27 kg, moves along the positive y-axis with a speed of 6.0 x 106 m/s. Another particle of mass 8.4 x 10-27 kg, moves along the positive x-axis with a speed of 4.0 x 106 m/s. Determine the third particle’s speed and direction of motion. (Assume that mass is conserved) Write down what you know mnucl = 17 x 10-27 kg m1 = 5.0 x 10-27 kg m2 = 8.4 x 10-27 kg m3 = mnucl – (m1 + m2) = 17 x 10-27 kg – (5.0 x 10-27 kg + 8.4 x 10-27 kg) = 3.6 x 10-27 kg vnuci = 0 m/s v1 = 6.0 x 106 m/s @ y-axis v2 = 4.0 x 106 m/s @ x-axis v3 = ?
