...Healthcare Systems Karen D Thomas May 27, 2012 Professor Forbes HSA 315 Describe the systems development life cycle as it pertains to both the development of a custom application and the selection of proprietary systems. The systems development life cycle is the process of planning, selecting, implementing, and evaluating a health care information system. These four stages have several tasks within each one. The main focus of planning and analysis is the organization’s strategy. In this phase, problems are identified and selected as opportunities for improvement. The organization at this stage has to determine whether a new system is really needed, and if so if it is financially possible at the current time. Once it has been determined that a new system is needed, the needs and requirements of the users must be taken into account. This is a time consuming, but very necessary process. By specifying what is needed, the company should be able to get a system that specifically helps them meet their goals. The second stage is design, and in this phase all options are considered. In system design, alternative solutions to problems are considered, a cost benefit analysis is performed, a system chosen, and negotiations with the vendor are completed. Once this stage is completed, the third stage, implementation, begins. The implementation phase involves allocation of resources to complete tasks. These tasks include workflow, installation of the system, testing, staff training...

...NIMS and the Incident Command System The way this nation prepares for and responds to domestic incidents is about to change. It won't be an abrupt change; best practices that have been developed over the years are part of this new comprehensive national approach to incident management known as the National Incident Management System (NIMS). But it will change � and for the better. Developed by the Department of Homeland Security and issued in March 2004, the NIMS will enable responders at all jurisdictional levels and across all disciplines to work together more effectively and efficiently. Beginning in FY 2006, federal funding for state, local and tribal preparedness grants will be tied to compliance with the NIMS. One of the most important 'best practices' that has been incorporated into the NIMS is the Incident Command System (ICS), a standard, on-scene, all-hazards incident management system already in use by firefighters, hazardous materials teams, rescuers and emergency medical teams. The ICS has been established by the NIMS as the standardized incident organizational structure for the management of all incidents. Although many agencies now use various forms of ICS, there...

...Everything we do has a reason and point to it; nothing in life is useless, if it was, then it simply wouldn’t exist. Several accept as the truth that playing sports isn’t taking them anywhere in life unless they’re planning on becoming a professional; other say that learning about what happened in the past remains irrelevant since it’s in the past, or that bagging groceries are only worth the money they make. However, what about the life lessons that are developed along the way, like pushing yourself to the limit, or knowing how to handle situations based on what others did in the past, and maybe bagging groceries facilitated your interpersonal skills. Nonetheless academics do play an enormous part in a person’s future as well. Nothing in life is useless, cheerleading, being in a health and science magnet program and taking plenty more science courses internships and maybe even going into a pre-vet program are not only beneficial to becoming a prosperous veterinarian; they were and certainly will be worth my undivided attention and time....
