Confrontation

We all have areas that require growth to be our absolute best. Exploring these areas is healthy and can be very productive for personal and professional growth. In the readings for this module, we continue our focus on analyzing effective communication strategies as well as our own personal strengths and weaknesses.

For this discussion, based on what you have learned in the readings, please think of a time when you experienced or witnessed a confrontation in either a personal or professional situation with a person from a different background that was not handled in the most appropriate manner.

  • Describe what happened, the end result and how the experience made you feel.
  • Did cultural differences contribute to the situation? Explain why or why not?
  • What would have been a better approach?
  • What are some strategies that you have tried or could try that may improve one of your weaker communication skills? Explain.

HCS 341 Discussion

How to motivate learners

Now it is your turn to apply some of these motivational concepts. For this discussion, you will need to post your initial thread before you will be able to see the posts of other students. This discussion is worth 5 points.

Read the Case Study: SPC Healthy Employee Initiative. In at least 300 words, including at least one peer-reviewed reference, address the following:

  • Using one of the models or theories discussed in this module (stages of change, health belief, self-efficacy, protection motivation, theory of reasoned action, etc.), provide a possible explanation for why staff were not participating in the campaign.
  • What motivational strategies did the human resources staff use in the “Let’s Get Healthy” campaign? Why do you think these strategies did not work?
  • Describe a different strategy that could better promote healthy behaviors among staff. For example, if a health education campaign was offered in conjunction with the “Let’s Get Healthy” campaign, would the results have been different? Explain.

comteporary application of the of science

Assignment 1: Discussion—Materials Science: Designing Form to Fit Function

Materials science is an interdisciplinary field where science and technology are used to develop and apply our understanding of matter at the atomic level to improve existing or to make new materials. It is a fusion of the basic scientific fields of physics and chemistry where knowledge of atomic theory, molecular bonding, and the macroscopic properties of metals, ceramics, and plastics come together to solve manufacturing and engineering problems.

Use the Internet, Argosy University library resources, and your textbook to research materials science. Do the following:

  • Discuss scientific and technical concepts related to materials science. Use the manufacturing of one of the following materials as the basis for your response:
    • Plastics
    • Glass
    • Metals
  • Discuss how materials science has advanced to the stage where materials can be engineered to fit a specific purpose.
  • Provide an example of an application or object that is made of materials specifically engineered for that purpose.

Support your statements with examples. Provide a minimum of three scholarly references.

Write your initial response in 2–3 paragraphs. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

Topic 4 answer 1

As a nurse, it is important to always be respectful of the beliefs and traditions of every patient, we must keep in mind things such as diet, modesty, privacy, and touching. If this 19-year old female patient in this scenario was Muslim and the nurse was a male, the nurse may have to avoid direct eye contact and physical contact. If the patient is married and their spouse is available to speak with the nurse may communicate through the spouse (Attum & Shamoon, 2019). Upon assessment of the patient it would be best if the nurse or doctor was of the same gender of the patient, if this is not possible the nurse or doctor should have a healthcare provider of the same sex in the room so that the patient feels comfortable. This female patient may dress modestly and the hospital gown that is provided may not be okay with her beliefs, in this case the patient may be allowed to leave her clothes from home on but should be told that clothing may have to come off and be put back on one at a time to properly assess her. The patient may not eat certain foods such as pork or pork passed products, which can also affect any medications that are pork or gelatin based. The patient’s religious beliefs should be taken into consideration, Muslims pray 5 times a day, and during Ramadan they fast which may cause them to refuse certain medication s (Attum & Shamoon, 2019). With each patient there are many different cultural aspects that a nurse must keep in mind, but of course, every situation is different and the nurse must ask questions to make sure that no one is being offended and to minimize confusion. In the Los Angeles community there is the Islamic Center of Southern California that provides religious, educational, and recreational facilities for members of the public (Islamic Center, 2018).

The PRECEDE-PROCEED Model

The PRECEDE-PROCEED model

Applying a Model to Develop an Intervention

In this week’s Discussion you will examine how the Precede-Proceed model. Is used to develop intervention programs.

******YOUR ASSIGNED FOCUS AREA IS VISION HEALTH. DO NOT USE ANOTHER HEALTH TOPIC********

Next, imagine that you are a health educator or other health professional that is planning a prevention program that relates to your assigned Healthy People focus area. Your goal is to develop a program that reduces the incidence of the disease and decreases the risk factors associated with the disease.

After reviewing this week’s readings, articles from the library, credible websites, etc., you will learn how other organizations have developed programs related to this particular Healthy People assigned focus area. Have they used a planning model in their program design? If so, which model?

  • How could you apply the assigned model to develop a culturally-competent intervention program to reduce the incidence of a particular disease?
  • Explain how some of the constructs (components) of the model would be considered in your program design.
  • What are some of the strengths and weaknesses of the planning model you were assigned? The PRECEDE-PROCEED model
  • Do you think the model you chose is the best model (from others mentioned in the readings or in the literature) to use for addressing this particular disease/health issue? Why or why not?

Be sure to cite your supporting documentation appropriately in correct APA format. Initial postings must be 250–350 words (not including references).

1.Write a summary of the case,

2.Answer the critical thinking questions, and

3.Elaborate on two key learnings from the case related to recruitment, selection, and legal considerations. Be sure to clearly state the two key learnings and defend them in well-organized, scholarly responses.

A key learning is defined as significant knowledge gained from reading the case. You may choose to explain your key learnings by offering a real-world application, personal insight, your thoughts and opinions about what was stated, how it is handled at your company, etc.

You manage it #2

The economy is tight, and there is competition among applicants to land jobs. This setting is expected to lead to an increase in the number of applicants who will misrepresent their background and credentials. The hope, of course, is that this bit of fudging will help them get the job. The misrepresentations might involve a change in the date of birth, shifting a college major, or maybe even the fabrication of a degree. There may also be lies about criminal records. The fact of the matter is that these misrepresentations, whether “little white lies” or major fabrications, are fraud. It is expected that fraud will be engaged in by approximately 30 percent of job applicants.

Critical Thinking Questions

  1. 5-17. Do you think fraud on resumes and job applications is an important issue for organizations? Why or why not?
  2. 5-18. Sometimes qualifications and credentials are important. For example, do you think it is important that your professors actually have the required qualifications (e.g., a PhD) to teach university-level classes? Is it important that your doctor have the qualifications that the medical board indicates are needed? Why?
  3. 5-19. If a fraudulent imposter can perform the job, what’s the harm?
