Scenario

Victor, a new parent to the program and the community, arrives late to pick up his children for the fourth time in two weeks. As the director of All Kids Childcare and Education, you are proud of the compassion, respect, and patience Master Teacher Veronica has offered Victor. You know that Victor and his family have relocated after a family hardship and they are struggling to make ends meet. However, you become concerned about professional boundaries after observing the following interaction.

Veronica chats with Victor as they get the children ready to go home, not mentioning Victor’s late arrival. She asks Victor if he has found beds for all of his family members to sleep in. Victor says, “Not yet. I have been busy working two jobs. I was offered the opportunity to pick up a few extra hours at my second job, so I haven’t had time for anything else.”

“Oh,” says Veronica. “I have a couple of extra beds at my house. Why don’t I bring them over with all the bedding later?” Victor is excited and says, “Yes, thank you! Thanks also for the table, chairs, and dishes you brought last week.”

As they part, Veronica says, “And, Victor, don’t worry about being late to pick up your children. We are very happy to have them here.”

Instructions

As the director, identify if this in an ethical situation. Then outline a coaching plan with Veronica. The coaching plan should be a written Word document or PowerPoint Presentation and include the following:

Analyze decisions that impact the healthcare delivery system.

Instructions

The Gotham City Hospital, a mid-sized hospital, has hired you as an expert consultant for healthcare organizations. They have requested an executive summary, between 3-4 pages that explains to their management team (administrators and medical staff) the difference between FIFO and LIFO delivery systems. The summary needs to cover both the risks and benefits the two delivery systems could have in the procurement and use of medical resources at the hospital.

Write an executive summary of at least 3 pages comparing and contrasting the use of FIFO and LIFO supply chains in a healthcare setting.

Make sure that the Executive Summary includes the following;

Write a 2–3-page assessment in which you respond to a series of questions about the field of biopsychology and the brain.

Biopsychology, also known as behavioral neuroscience, has become a well-established multidisciplinary study that uses complicated techniques to reveal the relationship between brain functions and human behaviors.

By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:

•    Competency 1: Use information technology and tools to identify information in the domain of biological psychology. â–ª Describe the different regions of the brain and the associated functions.
▪ Describe the ethical concerns connected to biopsychology research. â€¨

•    Competency 2: Employ critical and creative thinking to evaluate problems, conflicts, and unresolved issues in the study of biological psychology. â€¨â–ª Explain the mind-brain problem.
▪ Describe the origin of biopsychology. â€¨

•    Competency 3: Analyze the research methodology and tools typically associated with the study of biological psychology. â€¨â–ª Describe scientific methods used by scientists to study the brain. â€¨

•    Competency 6: Communicate effectively in a variety of formats.

                                           â–ª  Write coherently to support a central idea with correct grammar, usage, and mechanics as expected of a â€¨psychology professional. â€¨

                                           â–ª  Use APA style and format. â€¨Context â€¨As a branch of psychology, contemporary biopsychology studies the relationships between behavior and (mainly) the brain. Before this central hypothesis was established, the popular mind-brain questions raised in history included “What is the mind?” and “Does the mind control the brain or vice-versa?” Numerous scientists, psychologists, philosophers, and other scholars answered these questions differently and developed a variety of theories to explain their rationale. â€¨Show More
Action Potential â€¨The brain is part of the nervous system. A particularly important aspect of the nervous system is how neurons “fire,” or act to transmit information. This process is known as the action potential and is governed by several different factors, including neurotransmitters and electrolytes. â€¨Action potentials are subject to several laws. For instance, according to the all-or-none principle, an action potential occurs at full strength or not at all. This theory has been a foundation of the studies â€¨

of the brain and the theory is widely applied in today’s medicine as well as the computer world and the robot industry.

Nature or Nurture?

The relationship between heredity and the environmental influence in shaping behavior has long been the topic of studies. The history of biological psychology development includes the contributions of Descartes, Fritsch, and Hitzig, Helmholtz, Broca, Gall, and Lashley. One of the most exciting scientific discoveries in the twentieth century was our understanding of nucleic acid through the structures and functions of DNA and RNA. The Human Genome Project—a global collaboration of biotechnology— has greatly advanced our understanding of one of the original questions in biopsychology: Nature or nurture?

Questions To Consider

To deepen your understanding, you are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of the business community.

•    What are your thoughts on the practice of psychology? Should a practicing psychologist fall more into the Monism camp or the Dualism camp? Why? How will one view versus the other impact how a psychologist implements therapy? â€¨

•    Consider the concept of neurotransmission, and then apply this concept to the following question:
▪ Do you expect one day to have a “magic drink” with a mixture of chemicals that make a consumer “smarter” or â€¨prevent a consumer from neurological or psychological disorders? Why or why not? â€¨Resources Suggested Resources â€¨The following optional resources are provided to support you in completing the assessment or to provide a helpful context.
