stability and the changes in your personality throughout your life to date.

/in /by

You are to write a 5-7 page paper in APA format in which you discuss both the stability and the changes in your personality throughout your life to date. Discuss this topic appealing to information from the text.

You will need to skim through chapters 8 & 9 to be able to correctly write the paper and apply it to my life. I have given you some pointers below to reference as far as stability in my life and I will post the link and log in info to access my book.

Please touch on topics such as me moving out at 16 and being homeless, to living couch to couch, to dropping in and out of college, to having twins at 23, to obtaining my associates degree, going through a divorce and relocating to the point where I am now 30 and are more stable and will be obtaining my bachelors degree in Aug. Talk about how my personality and stability have changed over time with maturity and after having kids. But from 16 to about 23 I was not stable at all and not focused on school. Touch base on for 9 years from 17 to 26 I waited tables and when I left there to do office administrative work I also had to gain some financial stability because I went from getting cash tips every night to getting paid bi weekly which helped me learn to budget my money. IT HAS TO SOUND AS IF IT IS COMING FROM MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE BUT ALSO TAKE SOME INFORMATION FROM THE BOOK AND APPLY THAT TO THE PAPER AS WELL!

Respond to this discussion APA 250 words cite and ask a question

Children’s needs compare to the elderly’s in the way in which children may be in long term care for one single disability or condition while the elderly can be taken care of having multiple conditions or comorbidities. One example of a difference is pediatric nursing care units. Families and children find it important to have special physical and emotional needs in separate units with other children (Pratt, 2016, p. 98). The VA department provides long-term and short-term care in nursing homes for veterans who cannot care for themselves or do not need to be in a hospital setting (Wadsworth n.d.). “The Veterans Aid & Attendance Pension Benefit, or “A&A benefit,” provides up to $1,794 per month to a veteran, $1,153 to a surviving spouse or $2,127 to a couple. The money, which is tax-free, can be used for in-home care, board and care, an assisted living community or a private-pay nursing home” (Lunden, 2017). Rehabilitation in long term care can help those with therapies for those after an injury at a place that provides services such as laundry and nursing services. In long-term care there are medical staff around to aide in whatever is needed medically. Being able to rehabilitate within a LTC facility provides people with great care while they are recovering.

Power point presentation on Compensation: Direct and Indirect = Total Compensation (Research)

Per the textbook, compensation can come in the form of financial returns, tangible services, and benefits. The two types of compensation are direct and indirect. Direct consists of pay for work performed. Indirect consists of the perks and benefits associated with the position/employment.

Imagine that you are a human resources (HR) manager, and it is your responsibility to identify data to help strategize, benchmark, and develop proper pay compensation for all positions within the organization. There are tons of software, vendors, and/or other services available to help with developing the pay grades, levels, and/or categories; however, the following website provides data and insight into the total compensation package: www.salary.com. You decide to use this website to help you develop your pay model and total compensation strategy.

For this assignment, you will create an eight- to 10-slide PowerPoint presentation. You will first choose a job title and a location to present the www.salary.com findings/results. Imagine that you are presenting to your company leaders, and ensure that you identify the following components:

  • core compensation (direct compensation),
  • benefits (indirect compensation), and
  • benchmark benefits with the industry average.

Below are the steps to access the material.

  1. Go to www.salary.com.
  2. Hover over Personal (located at the top of the screen).
  3. Click Salaries (from the drop-down menu).
  4. Enter job title and location.
  5. Click Get My Salary Estimate.
  6. Select one job title of your choice.
  7. Click Skip This Advertisement.
  8. Review the Salary and Benefits, which can be accessed using the navigation panel on the left. (Use this information to create your presentation.)
  9. Once you select Benefits (located to the left of the screen), click the Benefits Calculator tab (located at the top of the page).
  10. From the Industry drop-down list, select the appropriate industry.
  11. Enter the Base Salary.
  12. Enter any Bonuses.
  13. Click Submit.
  14. Once the results are provided, review the Define Employer Contributions tab. The Annual Value of Benefits portion lists the indirect benefits. Enter data for the following fields: 401k, disability, healthcare, pension, and time off (enter as days; on average, most organizations offer 21 days).
  15. Click Submit.
  16. Review the results within the Compare Benefits to Industry tab.

As you create the content slides for your presentation, be sure to use the speaker notes function to explain the content in detail for each of the slides.

Note: Keep the 6×6 PowerPoint rule in mind (i.e., slides should only include six to seven lines of content with no more than six to seven words per line). Any illustrations should relate to the content being discussed. Be creative!

Include a title slide and a references slide in your presentation; however, please note that these slides do not count toward meeting the total slide count requirement.
