Topic: Everyday Life Final Essay

Exam Question:

‘Much of everyday life seems obvious, natural and inevitable. When we look closer, however, we can see the ways in which everyday life reflects power and inequality, the operation of ideology, and the process of socialisation.’

Respond to this claim in relation to the three topics of work, health, and racism. Address each of these topics in a separate paragraph, applying the above concepts. Your answer must reflect your engagement with both the lectures, and the relevant essential readings.

Exam Instructions:

All answers must be expressed ENTIRELY in your own words. Theorists/authors should be acknowledged (ie ‘Scott argues that ….’) but do not use direct quotes or close paraphrasing from either the readings or the lectures. You must express your ideas in your own words in order to demonstrate your understanding of the material. This is not a suggestion – it is a requirement.

Your answer must be 750 words in length. Each topic will be marked separately and each topic is equal in marks, so you should devote approximately 250 words to each topic.

You do not have to apply each concept to each topic. However, you should address each of these concepts in the course of your complete exam answer.

No additional research is required – you should refer only to the essential readings and lectures.

Your exam answer will be checked for originality through turnitin.

Double space your exam answer.

Do not cut and paste or retype the exam question into your answer.

DUE: 9am Sunday 29th May.

Topic: Strategic plan for an organization (any) using concepts from book: \’Good to Great\’ (Collins)

Utilizing the ideas presented in class and in the book Good to Great, your assignment is to prepare a
4-6 page strategic plan (12 pt. font, line spacing 1.0 or 1.5) for your target organization that will accomplish its strategic intent within the next 5 years. This may build on the first two written assignments, or you can choose a different organization and set of management priorities. If you stay with the same organization, your plan must expand on the initiatives already proposed in the earlier assignments. All plans should contain these four elements:

A. Begin with a summary statement that describes in both qualitative and quantitative terms your vision for the end state position of your organization (e.g., size, profitability, market share, rank, geographic coverage, product scope, etc.), using a time horizon of five years.

B. Describe the hedgehog concept around which you will build your successful strategy. State it in a single sentence, printed in bold. Be sure it answers the three questions posed by Collins.

C. Identify the specific pillars or management initiatives in your strategy for getting there. Explain how you intend to implement these planks, with staffing requirements, calls for action, use of cross functional teams, target dates and budget considerations. For example, your pillars might be:
· Offer new product lines or services
· Attack new distribution channels
· Reach new domestic or international markets
· Extend geographic coverage
· Strengthen core competencies
· Develop new or expanded resources
· Apply technology accelerators
· Tighten cost structure

D. Establish key performance goals so it will be clear whether or not the plan has been achieved. Cite the most single critical “economic denominator” for measuring the company’s progress.

The target audience for this plan should be the company’s management team and/or board of directors. Avoid jargon and make all technical issues understandable to the non-technical people on your board and within the management team. Assume that the organization’s directors are sophisticated executives who want any proposals backed up with facts and analysis, not unsupported claims and puffery. Put this plan in a form where you would be proud to submit it to the CEO of the subject company. If the plan is targeted at your current employer, you may even want to do that. It can’t hurt, and they could decide to implement your ideas.

Topic: Low Acuity, Non-Transport & Palliative Care, End-Of-Life Assignment

PURPOSE OF THE ASSIGNMENT
As paramedics you will be involved in circumstances where you are confronted by end-of-life or palliative care decisions and the care of the person and significant others (family / friends) may be challenging and complex. The aim of this assignment is to explore the ethical and legal issues involved in either end-of-life / palliative care or low acuity (treat – non-transport) cases. These cases involve complex decision making due to situational and emotional factors and the clinical follow-up that may be required. The assignment asks you to identify a case that you have attended as a foundation to discuss legal and ethical issues such as;

· when to start or cease cardiopulmonary resuscitation,

· the role of advanced care planning,

· was it safe to leave the person at home,

· what resources and follow-up clinical assessment and care is required,

· assessment and diagnosis might not be as straight forward it first appears,

· AND what this means to your practice.

The ethical principles of justice, autonomy, beneficence (benefit) and non-maleficence (do no harm) are important to maintaining your own professional practice and the dignity and care of those you care for. Managing the emotional and ethical challenges in these types of cases can be difficult and can affect your own wellbeing and practice as a paramedic.
