Health Literacy and Patient Empowerment

 

Health literacy is the degree to which people possess the ability to comprehend and make use of health information about their bodies, conditions, and prescribed medical interventions. The concept of health literacy is of paramount importance as patients are beginning to play increasingly participatory roles in their own healthcare. One concern is the varying degrees of health literacy that patients possess. Some patients will have a high degree of health literacy while others only a minimal level. This has important implications as to how health information is presented at the individual as well as the public level.

Select a chronic disease. Find three websites that provide patient information about the condition, its effects, and treatment.

Note: Read articles that are peer-reviewed to establish authenticity of their data.

Use the required readings and other scholarly sources to answer the following questions:

• What is the chronic disease that you have selected? Explain. Was it difficult to find quality information about it? Why or why not?
• What, according to you, is the health literacy level for each of the selected websites? Is it low, medium, or high? Explain your rating system for the three literacy levels. What are the factors that contribute to the literacy level for individuals?
• What attributes make these sites highly effective in clearly communicating the information necessary for understanding the condition, its effects, and treatment? Would you change or add anything?
• What is patient empowerment? How does it relate to health literacy?
• What are the issues involved in the patient or provider relationships when promoting patient empowerment?
• What, according to you, could be the three effective strategies to increase health literacy for specific populations?

The paper should be about how they make NYC better regarding in (traffic, bridges, roads etc.)

 

The three people names are:

1. International Joint Venture Anheuser-Busch (which is now part of AB InBev due to a merger), the producer of Budweiser and other beers, has engaged in a joint venture with Kirin Brewery, the largest brewery in Japan. The joint venture enabled Anheuser-Busch to have its beer distributed through Kirin’s distribution channels in Japan. In addition, it could utilize Kirin’s facilities to produce beer that would be sold locally. In return, Anheuser-Busch provided information about the American beer market to Kirin.

a. Explain how the joint venture enabled Anheuser-Busch to achieve its objective of maximizing shareholder wealth.

b. Explain how the joint venture limited the risk of the international business.

c. Many international joint ventures are intended to circumvent barriers that normally prevent foreign competition. What barrier in Japan did Anheuser-Busch circumvent as a result of the joint venture? What barrier in the United States did Kirin circumvent as a result of the joint venture?

d. Explain how Anheuser-Busch could have lost some of its market share in countries outside Japan as a result of this particular joint venture.

 

2. Valuation of Walmart’s International Business In addition to all of its stores in the United States, Walmart Stores, Inc. has 13 stores in Argentina, 302 stores in Brazil, 289 stores in Canada, 73 stores in China, 889 stores in Mexico, and 335 stores in the United Kingdom. Overall, it has 2,750 stores in foreign countries. Consider that the value of Walmart is composed of two parts, a U.S. part (due to business in the United States) and a non-U.S. part (due to business in other countries). Explain how to determine the present value (in dollars) of the non-U.S. part assuming that you had access to all the details of Walmart businesses outside the United States.

 

3. Impact of International Business on Cash Flows and Risk Nantucket Travel Agency specializes in tours for American tourists. Until recently, all of its business was in the United States. It just established a subsidiary in Athens, Greece, which provides tour services in the Greek islands for American tourists. It rented a shop near the port of Athens. It also hired residents of Athens who could speak English and provide tours of the Greek islands. The subsidiary’s main costs are rent and salaries for its employees and the lease of a few large boats in Athens that it uses for tours. American tourists pay for the entire tour in dollars at Nantucket’s main U.S. office before they depart for Greece.

a. Explain why Nantucket may be able to effectively capitalize on international opportunities such as the Greek island tours.

b. Nantucket is privately owned by owners who reside in the United States and work in the main office. Explain possible agency problems associated with the creation of a subsidiary in Athens, Greece. How can Nantucket attempt to reduce these agency costs?

c. Greece’s cost of labor and rent are relatively low. Explain why this information is relevant to Nantucket’s decision to establish a tour business in Greece.

d. Explain how the cash flow situation of the Greek tour business exposes Nantucket to exchange rate risk. Is Nantucket favorably or unfavorably affected when the euro (Greece’s currency) appreciates against the dollar? Explain.

e. Nantucket plans to finance its Greek tour business. Its subsidiary could obtain loans in euros from a bank in Greece to cover its rent, and its main office could pay off the loans over time. Alternatively, its main office could borrow dollars and would periodically convert dollars to euros to pay the expenses in Greece. Does either type of loan reduce the exposure of Nantucket to exchange rate risk? Explain.

f. Explain how the Greek island tour business could expose Nantucket to political country risk.

4. Exposure of MNCs to Exchange Rate Movements Arlington Co. expects to receive 10 million euros in each of the next 10 years. It will need to obtain 2 million Mexican pesos in each of the next 10 years. The euro exchange rate is presently valued at $1.38 and is expected to depreciate by 2 percent each year over time. The peso is valued at $.13 and is expected to depreciate by 2 percent each year over time. Review the valuation equation for an MNC. Do you think that the exchange rate movements will have a favorable or unfavorable effect on the MNC?

Write two obituaries (minimum 250 words each) in remembrance of President Abraham Lincoln. To complete this assignment, you are going to assume the role of an editor for a fictional newspaper on two distinctly different dates. It is your choice of who your audience is and what emotion the content contains, but each article should provide a perspective on the political, economic, and social impact that he had on the nation before, during, and after the Civil War.

 

 1. The first will be dated April 16, 1865, and will need to assume the role of an obituary from that date. Keep in mind what would be known, thought, and felt at that time.

 

2. The second will be dated April 16, 2015, and will need to assume the role of a remembrance of his legacy.

Consider his legacy 150 years after his death.

 

 Both obituaries will be submitted together as one document. The details about Lincoln’s time, location, and cause of death will not need to be cited, any other materials, quotes and accounts must be cited using APA Style 6th edition. Do not reprint an actual obituary. Must be original paper.

Part 3     Implement the program.

Instructions

1. For all our labs, use the Eclipse IDE. On your own computer, you will need to install MinGW.You will also need to download and install the C development toolkit (CDT). There are many tutorials on the Web to step you through this process. Eclipse is a popular IDE for C development; it includes a good interactive debugger and project control
2. Write a C program that will maintain a list of employees using either ordered or unordered arrays.  Each employee in the list should store an identifier number (integer), a name (String – char array), and a salary (Double). Allow operations to add, remove, display single, display list, reset the list, create ainitial list with randomly populated items, help, and exit.
3. You can choose either an unordered list or an ordered list for your implementation. If you choose an unordered list, sort it before display. For an ordered list, use a binary search instead of a linear search.
4. You don’t need to implement a GUI for this project. Just create a menu of selections as listed below:

Employee Maintenance

1) Add Employee

2) Remove Employee

3) Display Employee

4) Display Employee List

5) Reset List

6) Create Initial List

7) Sort

8) Help

9) Quit

Please Select:

Note: The sort option is unnecessary if you implement an ordered list.

5. To add an employee, randomly pick an integer employee number that must be unique. The C function rand() can be used. A list of available employee numbers must also be maintained. Initially, this list can be filled with a sequential list of integers. To add a new employee, randomly pick one of these integers and replace its entry in the list with the final entry. Ask the user for an Employee name and salary. Keep track of the number of item numbers that are available using an integer counter.
6. When you remove an employee, the employee number should be returned to the free list.
7. Make sure to validate that the salary is within a reasonable range. You can use the C scanffunction. Recall that scanf(“%s*”) is needed to clear the input buffer after an error. Always output appropriate error messages when the user types in something illegal. Robust programs should never crash.
8. My implementation contained three files; one for the main program (lab1.c), one for the list of employees (EmployeeList.c), and one for maintaining each employee (Employee.c). I also created a header file (empstructs.h), which contained a structure for the employee items and various symbolic constants (see below).

   #ifndefEMPSTRUCTS_H_

   #define EMPSTRUCTS_H_

   #include <string.h>

   #include <stdio.h>

   #include <stdlib.h>

   #include <time.h>

   #define MAX_EMPLOYEES 100

   #define EMP_SIZE 30

   #define LINE 80

   #define OPTIONS 9

   #ifndef NULL

   #define NULL   ((void *) 0)

   #endif

   #define FALSE 0;

   #define TRUE 1;

   typedef struct

   {

   int id;

   char name[EMP_SIZE];

   double salary;

   } EMPLOYEE;

   typedef struct

   {

   int freeCount;

   int employeeIndex;

   int numEntries;

   int  freeList[MAX_EMPLOYEES];

   EMPLOYEE *employees[MAX_EMPLOYEES];

   } EMPLOYEE_LIST;

   /* Declared in Employee.c */

   void destroyEmployee(EMPLOYEE**);

   EMPLOYEE* createEmployee(char*, double, int);

   char* employeeToString(EMPLOYEE*, char*);

   /* Declared in EmployeeList.c */

   void initializeEmployeeList(EMPLOYEE_LIST*);

   EMPLOYEE* insert(EMPLOYEE_LIST*, char*, double);

   void sort(EMPLOYEE_LIST*);

   int delete(EMPLOYEE_LIST*, int);

   void deleteAll(EMPLOYEE_LIST*);

   EMPLOYEE* find(EMPLOYEE_LIST*, int);

   int traverse(EMPLOYEE_LIST*, void (*)(EMPLOYEE*, char*));

   #endif /* EMPSTRUCTS_H_ */

 

9. When you create a new employee, use the malloccommand to allocate the appropriate amount of memory. sizeof(EMPLOYEE), assuming your employee structure is called EMPLOYEE, returns the number of bytes needed for the malloc command. When you remove an employee, or if you are resetting the employee list, make sure to call C’s freefunction when getting rid of employees. C does not include garbage collection, so failing to do this leads to memory leaks.

 

10. The Create option will use a ‘for’ loop to automatically add items to the employee list. Random non-duplicate item number values are required (as we described above). Use any algorithm that you choose to generate different values for the names and salaries; duplicate field values are ok. A simple way to choose employee names is to declare an array of possible names. The following statement can then be used to randomly choose a description:

    name = names[(int)(Math.Rand()%namesSize)];

    For the salary field, (int)(Math.Rand()%RANGE) + MINSALARY can be used to guarantee that a valid dollar and cents value is used.

11. The help command redisplays the menu. Otherwise, it should only display once when the program starts.

 

Other Hints

1. The C puts and printffunctions are quite useful for output. However, make sure to follow the output with a call to fflush(stdout). Otherwise, nothing shows until the output is long enough.
2. Eclipse provides lots of warning messages, thatcan save debugging time, but sometimes can cause difficulty in getting rid of the warnings and messages. Your final project should be free of all warnings. Sometimes, you will need to rebuild the project, or clean it, for errors to disappear.
3. To copy a substring, use strcpy, but be sure to add a null at the end (‘\0’) of the string. To truncate a string, simply store the null character at the appropriate index.
4. Recall that C uses NULL, not the nullof Java.
5. To use scanfto limit the size of an input string to 30 characters, use the template “%30s”.
6. Standard C does not allow declaring variables in a loop. So for(count=0; count<max; count++), the integer countmust be declared outside the loop.
7. Remember that C has no classes, no exceptions, and no function overloading.
8. C often lets you do things that crash the program when it runs; so be careful.

Overview

One of the most important objectives of this course is for you to be able to relate the theories in the readings and discussions to situations in real life. We will develop these critical thinking skills each week via the discussion boards and short writing assignments, which will culminate in the final project, a medical malpractice case study.

The purpose of a case study in general is to apply what you learned to a real–life or hypothetical situation where you analyze, test, and propose solutions to the case. You may have a problem to solve and be asked to present potential solutions. Or you may have a situation to analyze and describe why (or why not) certain events were effective or successful. In processing a case study, you will have to apply research, reasoning, critical thinking, and analytical skills to identify underlying problems, causes, and/or related factors and make decisions.

For the medical malpractice case study, you will prepare a paper discussing a medical malpractice case using the IRAC (issue, rule, analysis, conclusion) formula. You will discuss any relevant ethical theories involved and analyze the outcome, applying legal concepts from the course.

You should be thinking about your case and start your research by Module Three. By Module Five, you should finalize your choice of a reported case for your project. In the Module Five journal activity, you will be asked to briefly discuss your chosen case and provide an outline for your project. The final project is due at the end of Module Seven. 

In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:

Prompt

The first step of the project is to locate a medical malpractice case that interests you. The case can involve malpractice or negligence claims against any type of healthcare provider—for example, a doctor, nurse, dentist, or chiropractor or an institutional provider such as a hospital, nursing home, or rehab facility. The case you choose must be from a published decision of the court (rather than a case reported in a secondary source, such as a newspaper or internet article).

Published decisions are primary sources of law that create precedent for other courts to follow in similar cases. For more information about judicial decisions, and for help on where to find them, visit the Library of Congress Law Library.

Review these malpractice decisions to get familiar with the structure and format of a typical court decision:

These cases were found by searching the New York Official Reports website using the terms “medical malpractice” and “wrongful death.” To locate the published court decisions in your state, browse the resources available at the Library of Congress Law Library or visit FindLaw’s Cases and Codes section, which contains resources and links for cases by state.

It is easier to find medical malpractice cases in state court as opposed to federal court, so you may want to start with cases in your local state court. As you get further into your research, you will discover that some court opinions are short, and some are much longer and contain significantly more detail. For this assignment, it is important to choose a case that not only interests you but also contains a detailed description of the facts and circumstances so you have enough information for your analysis. The two examples provided above are good samples of the kind of opinion you should try to find. When researching cases, make sure the one you ultimately select contains enough information about the case to address each of the bullet points below. Your paper should contain three parts:

In this part, describe your case, including the parties, the facts, and the claims asserted.

This part is your analysis and should make up the majority of your paper. This section should be written in the IRAC format. Click here for a description of the IRAC model. Your analysis should discuss the evidence on both sides of the case and the defenses asserted by the defendant healthcare provider. This section should also identify and analyze the ethical theories involved and how they did or did not impact the decision. 

In this part, discuss how and why the outcome would have changed if the facts or evidence had been different. For example, if the plaintiff won the case, discuss a defense that, if available to the defendant, would have changed the outcome (for example, if the defendant could prove the plaintiff filed his claim after the statute of limitations had expired).
