Helping professionals often face difficult decisions in their work that may have ethical ramifications. Ethical dilemmas span all areas of your professional practice from confidentiality and privacy to cultural considerations. For this Assignment, you concentrate on cultural considerations that may pose challenges to ethical practice. (Culture is broadly defined here as the behaviors, traditions, and/or beliefs of any subgroup.) Select one of the two case studies below to use for this assignment. After analyzing the case study, consider how you might address the issues present using your professional practice code of ethics.

Review the case studies below before completing the Assignment.

Case Study #1

Nitin and Priya are first-generation Indian-American immigrants, while their 16-year-old son was born and raised in the United States. They were reluctant to engage in treatment, but are doing so at the request of their son, Sujay. In Sujay’s view, his parents are being overly controlling regarding his upcoming choice of college, which is causing increasingly frequent clashes between him and his parents. Sujay wants to attend art school, while his parents want him to attend engineering school. They state that a career in science, religion, law, or medicine is the appropriate path for a person of his caste. Sujay claims that while he wants to please his parents, he feels they are stifling his passion and imposing cultural norms that, to him, are a part of their “world” and not his. You have little knowledge of Indian culture or the caste system and are unsure whether the issue at hand is a matter of controlling parents dealing with a life transition issue or a serious conflict involving social and cultural influences.

Case Study #2

Nicole and Julia explain to you that their relationship has felt strained lately and that they fear they are heading for a breakup. The couple explain to you that they have been in a long-term, non-monogamous relationship, but that lately, Nicole has expressed desire to change this practice. Julia feels that Nicole is “changing the rules halfway through the game” and that her sexual relationships with others are of no consequence to how she feels about Nicole. Their current relationship practice conflicts with your own personal opinion about the role of monogamy in relationships, and thus you feel conflicted about how to handle the situation.

The Assignment (2–3 pages)

• Identify the case study you chose and describe the ethical issue(s) present in it.
• Explain how you would address each of these issues.
• Justify your response using the appropriate professional Code of Ethics.

You have recently been promoted to Health Services Manager at Three Mountains Regional Hospital, a small hospital located in a mid-size city in the Midwest. Three Mountains is a general medical and surgical facility with 400 beds. Last year there were approximately 62,000 emergency visits and 15,000 admissions. More than 6,000 outpatient and 10,000 inpatient surgeries were performed.

Three Mountains was recently in the news after employee emails were published in which patients were discussed in very negative terms, although patient names were not used. The employees that sent these emails were fired. The CEO and the Board of Directors has tasked you with developing an intake packet for new patients that will reestablish patient trust in the facility, employees, and staff. The patient packet will address new patient concerns by including information about HIPAA, informed consent, a confidential health history report, and a living will. The new packet will also include the values of the organization and a code of ethics.

Your intake packet will start with the Hospital’s Code of Ethics that includes at least 10 ethical points. The code of ethics should include (at a minimum):

• Patient relations
• Physician activities
• Billing for services
• Political activities
• Conflict of interest
• Communication, including social media
• Privacy

The Code of Ethics should be submitted in bullet format in a Word document with an introduction. APA formatting for the ethical points and proper grammar is required.

Upon completion of your code of ethics, please prepare a PowerPoint presentation (or other shareable Webware/software you prefer) with narration in which you explain each ethical point and its relevance in the healthcare industry with examples to the CEO, so that she can answer questions from the Board.

1. The PowerPoint should have a minimum of 5 slides and a maximum of 12.
2. Describe each ethical point in the Code of Ethics.
3. Use the notes area on each slide as needed to expand on the key points.
4. You may use a free screen capture site such as Screencast-O-Matic to record a video of your presentation. Screencast-O-Matic is a site and program that can perform screen desk and audio capture up to 15 minutes for free, and can be utilized on a Windows or Mac computer. (Note: You can use another, similar program if you prefer. Screencast-O-Matic is only a suggestion). Make sure that both your voice and the PowerPoint slides are captured on the video.

Your audio presentation should include an introduction, a concise discussion of each slide, and a conclusion. The presentation should demonstrate your overall knowledge of the content, pronunciation of words, organization, proper recording, professionalism, and clarity.

Your presentation should be 10 minutes or less. Be sure to include the following:

• Include a link to the location of your live video on the last slide of your PowerPoint presentation.
• Make sure to use audience specific language and tone in your PowerPoint. Remember, you would be presenting this to the CEO of your facility.

I do not need an audio presentation, just a page to read from while making the presentation myself. 

Create a PowerPoint presentation outlining guidelines for college students on how to have a successful interview. The presentation must be at least eight slides in length and use at least two references. You may include your textbook as one of the references. Be sure to cite your sources in a reference slide and use proper APA style. All sources and their use must have accompanying APA citations. Be sure to include the content listed below in your presentation.

Describe the steps of an interview.

Differentiate the three types of interviews: information-gathering, job, and appraisal.

Discuss the interviewer and the interviewee’s roles during the opening, body, and closing portion of an interview.

Section 1 – Subject Organization and Rationale

The purpose of the Portfolio Project is to synthesize current research about the project management office (PMO) for the purpose of developing a PMO recommendation. The Portfolio Project is structured to help you demonstrate understanding of the course material, as well as the implications of new knowledge gained from research beyond the course readings and lectures.

Your Portfolio Project will be developed in three independent but cohesive sections, which considered in whole constitutes your PMO recommendation. The three sections are:

• Section 1: Subject Organization and Rationale
• Section 2: PMO Mission, Charter, and Competency
• Section 3: PMO Recommendations

Section 1 and Section 2 will be submitted as Portfolio Project milestones in Module 3 and Module 6, respectively.

Section 3 will constitute your final Portfolio Project due at the end of the course in Module 8.

Please choose from one of the two PMO recommendation options offered for your Portfolio Project assignment, which are described as:

Option #1: Recommendation for the Implementation of a New PMO

– or –

Option #2: Recommendation for the Advancement of an Existing PMO

For Section 1: Subject Organization and Rationale of the Portfolio Project, you are required to select a subject organization for developing a PMO recommendation. The subject organization must have an international/global aspect and may be your workplace, an organization that you are familiar with, or an organization that is based on your research.

For Option #1, the subject organization must exhibit the characteristics and attributes of a viable candidate for benefiting from a PMO.

For Option #2, the subject organization must exhibit a functioning PMO as qualified by the PMO competency continuum.

A key aspect of the Portfolio Project Section 1 is to secure instructor approval for the Portfolio Project subject organization selected, which is required before commencing with subsequent Portfolio Project sections.

Based on your research of the subject organization, substantively address the following key elements:

• Subject organization information: 
  • Organization name
  • Organization’s mission, vision, and values statement
  • Industry type and organization demographics
  • Description of organization’s culture
  • Executive sponsor and key stakeholders
• PMO business case: 
  • Assessment of existing project management: 
    • Project management methods
    • Project management tools
    • Project management experience
    • Project management maturity
  • Perceived PMO benefits for the organization: 
    • Overarching business rationale
    • Long term measurable goals (2-3)
    • First year specific goals and metrics
    • Quantified value proposition (short and long term)

Submit your Section 1 Portfolio Project Milestone assignment as a single Microsoft Word document to the Module 3 submissions area established for this purpose.

Your essay should address the following requirements:

• Your well-written PMO recommendation essay thesis should be 4  pages in length, which does not include the title, reference, or appendix pages. You need to add headings associated and subheadings with each of the bullet points listed in the Section 1 requirements.
• Format your paper per the CSU Global Guide to Writing & APA (Links to an external site.) standards, which includes an introduction and conclusion.
• Include title and reference pages.
• In addition to your course textbook, cite at least three current (published within the past 5 years) scholarly resources (peer-reviewed, official governmental reports, and other scholarly sources) to support your suppositions, assertions, and conclusions. To enhance your learning experience, scholarly resources are available from the CSU Global library.
• Include an appendix for tables and figures as appropriate.

Please write clearly, concisely, and cohesively; use section level headers to organize the key elements of your thesis.

I need a 4 pages textbook Summary 

At this point, you’ve organized your HR project team and you are  familiar with the importance of leading and managing the project and  team. It is now time to plan your project, which happens to be a large  and critical part of project management. Project planning tends to be  collaborative and integrative in that many factors, such as scope,  resourcing, budgeting, and risk, need to be considered.

Instructions

Write a 5–6 page paper in which you:

1. Define and discuss scope and scheduling as they each relate to  project management, and provide a statement of importance to your  project team so they know the relevance of each task.
2. Review the behavioral skills associated with project  resourcing listed in the textbook in Section 9.1, and select any four of  the skills you consider more critical. Be sure to explain why.
3. Explain to the management team and your project team how you  have determined the budget associated with project costs. How are costs  aggregated? How would you explain determining cash flow for separate  activities? Be specific with your responses.
4. Discuss at least three ways the project manager is able to identify possible project risks.
