Think back to a critical incident in your workplace that affected patient safety

you have any questions regarding the assignment, please contact me using the Course Help forum.

  • Think back to a critical incident in your workplace that affected patient safety, had unintended outcomes, or did not contribute to the well-being of the patient. Reflect on the incident to identify why the breakdowns in quality and safety occurred.
  • Refer to Box 5-4, Guidelines for Analyzing CT (Rubenfeld & Scheffer, 2015, p. 139) in your text to examine an event/incidence, to synthesize what happened, and how to prevent it in the future.

Write a two to three-page paper (excluding title page and reference page) that includes:

  • A description of a critical incident that occurred in your workplace that had unintended outcomes or did not contribute to the well-being of the patient.
  • An analysis of the event using the questions from box 5-4. Use these questions to analyze the event – it is not necessary to use all of them, but the ones that pertain to your event. You can then use the information from your answers to identify and talk about the incident and what worked well and what did not.
  • Your reflection of the incident, what the breakdowns were and why they occurred.
  • What steps a leader/manager can take to prevent future incidents. Or describe how you would create an environment where these incidences are less likely to happen. For example, what would you do differently?

research plan prep

  • After selecting a historical topic to research further, the next step in the research process is to create a research plan that compiles primary and secondary sources.
  • First, applying what you just learned about narrowing research questions, revise your research questions from your Topic Exploration Worksheet. Explain how you approached revising your research questions to assist your instructor in understanding your approach. This will help you draft an introduction to a hypothetical research paper with a strong thesis statement.
  • Second, applying what you have learned about comparing primary sources and analyzing secondary sources, do a deeper dive into the primary sources you listed in Part 3 of your Topic Exploration Worksheet to help you start your research plan. Describe what these sources add to your understanding of your selected topic and how they relate to the secondary sources you listed. Additionally, describe the historical context of your historical event based on what you have read in your secondary sources. Consider these questions to assist you in developing your description: What was going on in the world/area/society around the event? What were some of the biggest political, social, intellectual, diplomatic, and/or economic trends of this era? How did those greater political, social, intellectual, diplomatic, and/or economic trends cause or affect your topic?

  • What actions or dialogue indicate that the characters are “mad”?
  • What is the driver (origin) of the madness?

Developing Test Items

In Week 3, you submitted your test specifications. Now, you should incorporate your Instructor’s feedback and create your test items. Remember to write your items so that they are clear and unambiguous. Avoid compound items (e.g., “I am happy most days and I usually like to smile”). Also make sure that the items are representative of the construct that you are measuring.

Feedback to Learner 6/27/18 10:54 PM

I was kind of expecting to see you use the form that accompanies the assignment instructions. I like the opening paragraph that builds a foundation for psychological testing. It appears that you want to focus on the construct of “intelligence” which is good. The next part of the assignment was to suggest how you would define the construct. I didn’t see much there as you moved into information on the WAIS. The next section was supposed to focus on areas that you would use to help you create items (interviews, or the literature) and then you were to present an item that you wrote that would be used to measure the construct.

I think you are off a little with the expectation of the assignment. This is an assignment designed to start you on the steps of creating your own scale.

Mapping the Product Life Cycle (PLC) REPORT

Purpose of Assignment

The Product Life Cycle (PLC) is a vital
component of the marketing plan. Monitoring products and services as
they flow through this process helps marketing managers adjust their
marketing strategies to keep products and services thriving for as long
as possible. Monitoring this cycle helps companies and organizations
continue to maximize the value of their products and services with their
target over time. The purpose of this assignment is to give students
the opportunity to understand how each stage in the PLC creates a need
for adjustment to marketing strategies and allows students to assess
what action(s) need to be taken.

Assignment Steps

Resources: Marketing: Ch. 1: pg. 4-10; Ch. 2: pg.40-46, 54-69; Ch. 11: pg. 292-309

Scenario: You currently work as
the marketing manager of your favorite company/organization and manage
the success of one of its products or services. Your responsibility is
to monitor the stages of the Product Life Cycle (PLC) and adjust the
marketing strategies as needed for your product to thrive for as long as
possible. At each stage, you assess changes you need to make to the
product, price strategy, as well as competition and profit.

Write a 1,000 word report in Microsoft® Word® addressing the following topics:

  • The company and product or service that you have chosen
  • Define and discuss the PLC concept and its importance to marketing managers.
  • Define and discuss what role pricing strategy has in marketing and how marketing mangers decide what strategy to use.
  • Provide an analysis of each of the four stages of the PLC describing
    the stage and the implications each stage may have on price strategy,
    product management, competition, and profit for your selected
    product/service. Use the product/service you selected to illustrate each
    stage as it is discussed with original examples.
  • Share examples of possible implications if the PLC is not monitored.

Cite a minimum of two peer-reviewed sources with one
coming from the textbook or the University Library. Use in-text
citations to demonstrate your research.

Format your report consistent with APA guidelines.
