identify a category of crime, provide a specific example of the elements of the offense from your state (or state of your choosing) and discuss the investigative approaches and choices that an investigator would most likely consider when conducting an investigation.

In at least three (3) pages, identify a category of crime, provide a specific example of the elements of the offense from your state (or state of your choosing) and discuss the investigative approaches and choices that an investigator would most likely consider when conducting an investigation.

In your paper:

(1) identify the category of crime that you will be exploring: Crimes Against Persons; Crimes Against Property; or Crimes Against Society;

(2) identify at least ONE statute from your state (or state of your choice) associated with that crime category and explain the major elements of that offense that need to be investigated and proven;

(3) discuss the type of crime scene you may encounter with that type of offense and how you would handle that crime scene – will it be a large complex scene with many witnesses, lots of physical evidence, or a small scene with no witnesses, etc; OR is this the type of crime that requires special investigation techniques like confidential informants, undercovers, surveillance, etc?

(4) discuss the type(s) of evidence you are likely to be collecting from that scene – is it mostly witness statements, or forensic evidence like DNA, fingerprints, computer evidence, etc – and how you would best handle that evidence;

(5) for the type(s) of evidence you are collecting, what are the potential challenges you may be expected to overcome? Is contamination an issue? What types of witnesses/victims to you potentially come across that would potentially cause reliability issues?

(6) do you think the type of crime you are investigating will likely lead to search warrants? If so, what would you be searching for, where would it be, and what level of evidence do you need to obtain that search warrant?

(7) for the type of investigation you have selected, discuss the clearance rate of offense in general (see reading below) and give an opinion as to if that rate can be improved or not. If you believe it can be improved, explain what additional resources or techniques would lead to improvement. If you do not believe the clearance rate can be improved, give an opinion as to why not.

NOTE: If you chose to discuss Crimes Against Society, discuss what you think the biggest challenge is associated with detecting/investigating the type of offense you selected and what types of additional resources or techniques could lead to more successful investigations of that type of crime.

Explain the symptoms of any major adverse effects. What should clients do if they experience them?

Assignment Scenario
After graduating from nursing school and passing your boards, you accepted a position as an RN in the Progressive Cardiac Care Unit (PCCU) at Rasmussen General Hospital (RGH). In the weeks ahead, the PCCU plans to implement a new initiative where clients who had superventricular tachycardia will be sent home on an oral antidysrhythmic drug, quinidine.

Historically, clients diagnosed with superventricular tachycardia were treated first in the PCUU and then they were transferred to the hospital’s observation unit for 24 hours and then sent home. However, when surveyed about their experiences, many clients reported they did not like moving to a new unit for 24 hours, it was considered time-consuming, and inconvenient. Under RGH’s new program, PCCU nurses will be responsible for educating clients about their new medication and administering the first dose to the client before discharge instead of transferring clients to the observation unit for 24 hours.

As part of this new initiative, all PCCU nurses at RGH must be trained to properly educate these clients on all aspects of their new medication regimen. Because you have demonstrated a keen interest in pharmacology, your manager has asked you to develop the educational tools that will be used to train the nurses at RGH.

Assignment Instructions
Your manager explained that all of the PCCU nurses at RGH will be educated in small groups through a short, in-service training session. You have been asked to develop a professional-looking PowerPoint presentation that the trainers will use to guide the in-service sessions. Your PowerPoint will need to:
Be professional-looking (show current evidence-based practices), have a title slide, and 10-15 content slides.
Use the Speaker Notes feature in PowerPoint to reduce the amount of text that appears on the content slides.
The Speaker Notes for each slide will contain the text that will guide what the trainer will say while presenting the slides during the in-service.
The speaker notes should be written in full sentence format. The speak notes should show comprehension of the material, this means the speaker notes should add additional information to the notes on the slide; they should explain definitions, diagrams, and provide examples. The speaker notes should be easy to understand and follow. The speaker notes should add to the presentation and not be directly copied from the content slides. (Speaker notes should follow APA guidelines)
The Speak Notes need to be copied onto a word document and submitted through grammeraly.
The content slides themselves should be clear and easy to understand; they serve as an outline so the audience can follow along with what is being presented (Slide should follow APA guidelines)
Both slides and speaker notes should be written using proper spelling/grammar and at a level that would be appropriate for the audience.
Remember the purpose of the training is to help nurses learn about this medication so they can educate their clients about the use of a medication. With that in mind, it may be helpful to provide examples of how to explain the information to a client in an easy-to-understand way without complicated, technical terms.
Include APA formatted in-text citations on each slide as well as in the speaker notes. This assignment requires 3 scholarly references and present the sources in APA format on a References slide.
Contain content addressing the items below.
Pharmacotheraputics
State the drug name and its therapeutic category
Pharmacodynamics (how does this drug work? How does it affect the body?)
Pharmacokinetics (how is this drug absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and excreted; why is this information important to the nurse? How can the nurse use this information to provide safe patient care?).
Discuss dosage, scheduling, route, and length of therapy.
Describe what clients can expect regarding their therapeutic response and when it should develop
Introduce non-drug measures that clients can do to enhance their therapeutic response (e.g., specific diet to follow, exercise requirements, substances to avoid, special precautions to take, etc.)
Side Effects, Adverse Effects, and Interactions
Explain the symptoms of common side effects, and what clients can do to minimize any discomfort. Ask yourself what can nurses do to prevent and/or treat some of the common side effects listed?
Explain the symptoms of any major adverse effects. What should clients do if they experience them?How can clients prevent these major adverse effects? How can nurses assess for these adverse effects? How can nurses prevent and/or treat these adverse effects?
List the major adverse drug-drug interactions and drug-food interactions that clients need to be made aware of
Follow-up Care
Provide information regarding when clients should call their doctor for advice (e.g., questions, non-urgent symptoms, unpleasant side effects, etc.)
Emphasize any symptoms for which clients should seek immediate care (e.g., when to go to the emergency center or call 911)

What do you think are two of the barriers that keep people from saving for retirement?

Benchmark – Personal Finance Plan

Assessment Description

The purpose of this assignment is to provide you the opportunity to apply sound financial principles and practices to the management of your current and future personal finances.

Part 1: Six Topics of Financial Planning

There are six major components of a financial plan. These include:

1. Financial (Cash Flow) Management
2. Tax Planning
3. Insurance Planning (Risk      Management)
4. Investing/Asset Planning
5. Retirement Planning
6. Estate Planning

For Part 1 of this assignment, you will complete the following pieces of your own personal financial plan.

Financial (Cash Flow) Management

• You will need your original cash flow estimate that you created in Topic 1 and your “Daily Spending Log,” in which you worked on tracking your expenses for one month. Create a spreadsheet that lists the various expense categories in one column, the dollar amounts of your original estimates of your monthly expenses in the next, and then shows your actual expenses that you tracked in your spending log in the next column. Note: Your actual expenses in many categories will likely be quite different from your original estimates. There is no need to have spent what you predicted. In fact, much awareness can come from the areas in which your estimates where different from your actual spending.
• Next, add a “Spending Plan for Next Month” column. Based on the differences in your      spending estimate and the actual amounts from tracking spending, determine what dollar amounts you would now set for each category. If you find that you need to add new categories now that you have tracked your own actual spending, please feel free to add those.
• Indicate whether each expense category is a need or a want.

Write two or three paragraphs reflecting on the month of spending that you tracked and answer the following questions:

• What surprised you about your actual spending versus what you had estimated?
• Describe what you will or will not change for your spending plan next month and the reasons why.
• Describe how your spending plan will help you meet your financial goals and increase your net worth (refer to the balance sheet you created in Topic 1).
• How could you use this process for your financial goals?

Tax Planning

• Review your Topic 3 Financial Portfolio submission. Provide two paragraphs on what you can do to minimize your tax liability both now and in the future (imagine life changes that may occur).

Insurance Planning (Risk Management)

• Review your submission for Financial Portfolio Project Part 5 about insurance. Submit a revised      response based on feedback you received or on new ideas you now have regarding your insurance needs. If you do not have any changes to make, include a detailed justification describing why.

Investing/Asset Planning

Investing is covered in the next topic of the course. For the purpose of this assignment, you will include a brief description of how much you know about investing. Provide two paragraphs addressing the following:

• How would you rate your current understanding and knowledge of investing?
• How do you think investments will help you reach your financial goals?

Retirement Planning

Provide two paragraphs addressing the following points:

• What expenses will likely be higher during your retirement than now?
• What do you think are two of the barriers that keep people from saving for retirement?
• How will you overcome these barriers in your own retirement planning?

Estate Planning

Provide two paragraphs addressing the following points:

• What estate planning tools will you consider after establishing a family or career?
• Provide at least two tools and a reason that they might meet your future plans.

Part 2: Financial Plans and Goals

Recall your life goals as a basis for setting meaningful financial goals and accomplishing them.

In 250-500 words, address the following points:

• Provide an explanation of how you can implement your financial plans and goals. These can relate to the six main financial planning topics or include other topics, such as giving, education planning, credit, etc.
• How will you evaluate whether or not you are on track to meet your financial goals? Do you need to make any adjustments to meet your financial goals?
• Identify one thing you have learned so far in this course and how you will apply it to your life.

Discuss the reasons why victims often do not report the crime to the police.

Crime Statistics

Using the crime statistics from the FBI’s UCR, select a city in the United States whose crime stats are available. Then, select three crimes prevalent in the city and discuss their crime rates. In addition, answer the following questions:

What do you think accounts for these crime?

How can the city reduce these incidents of crime?

Discuss the reasons why victims often do not report the crime to the police.

Does the data show the same patterns for violent crimes and property crimes? What could be the possible reasons for this? According to NCVS data, older, white people tend to be more fearful of violent crime victimization. According to your analysis of violent crime victimization rates, what is the basis of their fear? Which segment of the population suffers more violent crime victimization? Does this segment feel as fearful of such victimization as older people? What might be the reasons for this?
There is a long-standing stereotype that the poor and minorities are the sources of the majority of crime problems in the United States. Lately, however, there is considerable debate regarding this view, and more broadly, regarding the relationship between social class and crime.
Discuss how each of the following could impact the disproportion between crime across different racial and income groups:

Police dispersion in poor and minority areas.

The focus of police on blue-collar crime.

The outward (on the street) nature of crime in poor areas.

The hidden nature of white-collar crime.

explain why such practices are important, and also offer some recommendations for next steps.

Dirty Data Is Costing You.pdf
post must be a minimum of 300 words

This week’s assigned reading discusses the organizational issues associated with “dirty data” and offers recommendations for four ways to overcome common data prep barriers.
For this discussion, assume you work for a small company (100 employees) that is quickly growing (both in terms of revenue and number of employees). As the organization is growing, issues with “dirty data” are beginning to arise – for all the reasons mentioned in the reading.
As a tech-savvy data analyst, you can see that something must be done to keep dirty data from becoming a problem for the company as it grows. You’ve been granted an audience with the CIO to make the case for putting sound data preparation practices in place. In making the case, you want to explain why such practices are important, and also offer some recommendations for next steps. What will you say? Use the reading to help you make your case. Outside references are also acceptable (please link to them in your response).

Have any entities come out in support or against the policy?  What are the concerns or support for the policy? 

Hospital margins have grown and shrunk over the last few years.  Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, hospitals were collectively, averaging a margin of 8 percent, which was higher than most of the other health care sectors.
Assignment:
Read the article found at the link below.  The article provides six possible policies to control hospital prices.

The High Price of Hospital Care

Which of the discussed is viable?  Summarize the policy and then support the viability of the policy with evidence.  Use external information and cite your sources to support your case.  A lack of supporting evidence and citations will lower the number of points you will earn with this assignment. Some suggestions for consideration are below.
Has any progress been made on this policy?  Has it been proposed or enacted at the state level?  If so, has it been successful or not?
Have any entities come out in support or against the policy?  What are the concerns or support for the policy?  Be sure to cite this information since it is not your information.
Is there supporting documentation for contentions made in the article corroborated by external sources?  Summarize and cite the external source.
Be sure to provide citations for any content used from readings, videos, or the internet in APA format at the bottom of your post.

Create a 2- to 3- p a g e report in a Microsoft Word document that includes the answers to the following questions:

How does the information collected vary in terms of crime rates between UCR and NCVS?

How are they similar?

If differences exist, what accounts for the differences?

Describe some of the differences between these firms. What type of trade-off decisions have these firms made?

provide a graduate-level response to each of the following questions:

1. The text discusses strategic trade-offs that are different between Walmart and Nordstrom even though they are in the same industry. Think of another industry that you know fairly well and select two firms there that also have made very different choices for these trade-offs. Describe some of the differences between these firms. What type of trade-off decisions have these firms made?
2. The chapter discusses several strategic leadership issues at Facebook. Several other firms are also noted in the chapter with some positive and some negative leadership results. Choose a firm mentioned in the chapter and discuss current controversial issues it faces. How should strategic leaders address the major issues you identified? In what situations is top-down planning likely to be superior to bottom-up emergent strategy development?
