The areas where the organization could improve its PFCC care will be discussed. The analysis of how business practices and regulatory requirements impact patient family centered care. A strategy will be created that includes goals and an operational plan to increase PFCC of the organization by improving one of the gaps that’s identified. I will discuss financial implications that this strategy may have on the organization. I will identify potential members for the multidisciplinary team who could assist in improving the identified gap. I will discuss the purpose and scope of the team to include the member’s roles, and importance of diversity within the team. The team will focus in a meaningful way using self-assessment, and awareness of self-reflective techniques. I will use PDAC to monitor whether the strategy was effective in increasing patient and family centered care.

BSN III-C Submitted to: Mrs. Miraluna Echavez, RN, MN March 2013 UTERINE LEIOMYOMA/ UTERINE FIBROIDS Uterine fibroids are noncancerous growths of the uterus that often appear during your childbearing years. Also called fibromyomas, leiomyomas or myomas, uterine fibroids aren't associated with an increased risk of uterine cancer and almost never develop into cancer. As many as 3 out of 4 women have uterine fibroids sometime during their lives, but most are unaware of them because they often cause no symptoms. Your doctor may discover fibroids incidentally during a pelvic exam or prenatal ultrasound. In general, uterine fibroids seldom require treatment. Medical therapy and surgical procedures can shrink or remove fibroids if you have discomfort or troublesome symptoms. Rarely, fibroids can require emergency treatment if they cause sudden, sharp pelvic pain or profuse menstrual bleeding. Symptoms In women who have symptoms, the most common symptoms of uterine fibroids include: * Heavy menstrual bleeding * Prolonged menstrual periods — seven days or more of menstrual bleeding * Pelvic pressure or pain * Frequent urination * Difficulty emptying your bladder * Constipation * Backache or leg pains Rarely, a fibroid can cause acute pain when it outgrows its blood supply. Deprived of nutrients, the fibroid...

...Chapter 1 [pic] Introduction 1.1 Background Of The Report As being one of the biggest hospitals in Bangladesh, Apollo Hospitals Dhaka is at the forefront of medical technology and expertise and provides a complete range of the latest diagnostic, medical and surgical facilities for the care of its patients. The hospital is having all the characteristics of a world-class hospital with wide range of services and specialists, equipment, & technology, ambience and service quality. But the quality of a hospital service is not defined by the appearance of its facility. Rather the service quality depends more on the sincerity of the hospital and its human resources to serve the patients. In Bangladesh, the health care sector is not yet developed. A large number of people go abroad for treatment due to low quality of medical facilities in Bangladesh. And the main target market of Apollo Hospitals Dhaka is the people who want to get world class treatment inside the country with affordable cost. To ensure the proper customer satisfaction, the hospital management has to employ the right people in right place. Prior to this a detailed job Analysis is almost essential. With Job Descriptions and a sophisticated Job Evaluation system, management will be able to recruit and determine pay levels better, determine the types of training the hospital staff should go on and have a basis to appraise them. Job Descriptions furnished by business units are current and accurate...

And if there is a way, Dan Hong has the will. Ever since I was born, I was curious about the world. I always said yes to trying new foods, taking mental and physical risks, and learning new skills when possible. I was born and raised in Queens, New York where I hustled on the daily; interacted with people of all kinds and developed a New Yorker mentality of “time is money” and acquired a taste for Italian, Korean, and Indian food. Then, I moved to the Great Neck bubble where I felt as if my development was being stagnated because of the lack of diversity and opportunities. But that didn’t stop me—I traveled to new...

Robotic surgery is an emerging technology that began its experimental phase in 1985 with the introduction of the PUMA 560 robotic arm. The first use of a robot for a surgical procedure was a neurosurgical biopsy, recorded in 1985. Following this successful surgery was the first laparoscopic surgery using the same kind of robot; the robotic arm. In 1987, a successful cholecystectomy was performed. In 1988, doctors decided to use the PUMA 560 robotic arm for a transurethral resection procedure. Finally, in 1990, the Automated Endoscopic System for Optimal Positioning (AESOP) became known as the first system to be approved by the Food and...

ISBN 978-0-692-00528-6 Editors: Mark S. Kovacs, Todd S. Ellenbecker, W. Ben Kibler TENNIS RECOVERY A Comprehensive Review of the Research A United States Tennis Association Sport Science Committee Project Editors: Mark S. Kovacs, PhD Todd S. Ellenbecker, DPT W. Ben Kibler, MD Introduction In the last two decades, physical training and competitive opportunities have increased dramatically in junior, collegiate and professional tennis. This arose due to a multitude of factors, but much of it has stemmed from an increase in knowledge and understanding of scientifically based training programs focused on improving performance. As this focus on performance has increased, the area of recovery has received relatively limited focus. Recovery is a multi-faceted paradigm focusing on recovery from training—session to session, day to day and week to week. Recovery is also vitally important during training as well as in competition between matches and between days during multi-day tournaments. As more information is needed in the area of tennis specific recovery, the Sport Science Committee of the United States Tennis Association (USTA) sponsored an extensive evidence-based...
