Define the highlighted terms in your own words. erythema and alopecia

Case Study Scenario
The internist recommends a dermatology workup for a suspected SLE (Systemic Lupus Erythematosus) in her 40-year-old female patient. The patient presents symptoms, including erythema rash across her cheeks and nose, photosensitivity resulting in a raised rash in sun-exposed areas, patches of alopecia, and pain and stiffness in her joints. The dermatologist examines the patient and orders exfoliative cytology and fungal scrapings to rule out other sources of the rash. Her internist had already placed the patient on oral anti-inflammatory medication for joint pain. The dermatologist orders corticosteroid cream for the rash. The patient is advised to use sunscreen and make a follow-up appointment for the results of the biopsy.
The Red-Faced Runner Case Study Questions
What pathological condition does the internist think this patient might have? Look this condition up in a reference source, and include a short description of it. SLE is an autoimmune disease. Use a reference source to look up the name of another autoimmune disease. 
Define the highlighted terms in your own words. erythema and alopecia (4 points)
What diagnostic tests did the dermatologist perform? Describe them in your own words. Why were they important in helping the dermatologist make a diagnosis?

Discuss how the Securities and Exchange Commissions segment reporting requirements apply to corporations.

Prepare a report (3-5 pages) that analyzes aspects of a potential partnership arrangement.
Introduction
In this assessment, you will investigate aspects of partnership formation, operation, and termination, as well as certain elements of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s reporting requirements pertaining to corporations.
Demonstration of Proficiency
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies through corresponding scoring guide criteria:

Competency 1: Apply advanced accounting techniques to organizational situations. 

Create a schedule showing how a partnership income would be allocated to each of the partners using interest allowances and salary allowances.
Create a schedule showing how a partnership loss would be allocated to each of the two partners to make loss-sharing as fair as possible.
Discuss how the Securities and Exchange Commission’s segment reporting requirements apply to corporations.

Competency 4: Apply quantitative models to create and manage budgets and forecasts and evaluate budget performance. 

Create a schedule that shows how partnership assets would be allocated in the event of a liquidation.

Competency 5: Communicate in a manner that is professional and consistent with expectations for members of the business professions. 

Communicate in a manner that is professional and consistent with expectations for members of the business professions.

Scenario
A client of yours is considering going into a partnership with a business associate. The partnership would own a retail gourmet ice cream shop. Your client anticipates investing $150,000 and working ten hours a week. His business associate will invest $50,000 and work forty hours a week. Your client has requested your informed perspective on a number of items before he commits to the business partnership.
Your Role
You are a self-employed accountant.
Requirements
Your client has requested the following be included in a report (3-5 pages) that he can study while considering how to approach this business opportunity:

Your client does not think that splitting the partnership income 50-50 will be fair to either partner. He has asked you to recommend clauses in the partnership agreement that stipulate partnership income and loss allocations. 

Create a recommended income allocation schedule using interest allowances at 10 percent a year and salary allowances at $25 an hour. For the sake of example, assume partnership income of $100,000.
Create a recommended loss allocation schedule. For the sake of example, assume partnership losses of $40,000.

Your client would also like you to create a schedule that shows what happens if this partnership is successful and the two partners agree to sell the company in 10 years. 

For the sake of this calculation, pretend that the partnership’s assets in 10 years are $900,000, liabilities are $200,000, your client’s capital is $400,000 and his associate’s capital is $300,000.
Pretend that the partnership assets are sold for $1,200,000, and the liabilities are settled for the existing value of $200,000.

The company’s flagship location would be in Buffalo, New York, but the potential partners have already discussed opening additional locations in Toronto, Canada. The client knows that as a partnership they would not have to meet the Securities and Exchange Commission’s segment reporting requirements, but the client wants to know what happens if they reorganize as a corporation when they move into the Canadian market. Discuss how the Securities and Exchange Commission’s segment reporting requirements apply to corporations.

Deliverable Format
Since you plan to deliver this report to a paying client, you want this document to be clear, well-organized, and readable. You decide that the report should be 4–6 pages so that you have enough space to respond to your client’s concerns and provide some scholarly and/or professional context.

Communication: Communicate in a manner that is scholarly, professional, and consistent with the needs and expectations of your client. Professional standards dictate that your work be original and free of errors that detract from the overall message.
Your report is a professional document and should therefore follow the corresponding MBA Academic and Professional Document Guidelines, including single-spaced paragraphs.
Resources: At least three resources that are scholarly and/or professional. So that your client may locate more information about partnership operation and SEC corporate reporting requirements, include a reference page at the end of your report.
Report length: Minimum of 3-5 pages, not including reference pages.
Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 pt.

Faculty will use the scoring guide to review your deliverable as if she or he were your client. Review the scoring guide prior to developing and submitting your assessment.

Week 4 Discussion 
In order to talk about the pros and cons of RFID ( radio frequency identification device) we need to understand what exactly is it and does. RFID is a wireless system that includes a tag that uses radio waves to communicate the identity and a reader which is a device that has one or more antenna that emits radio waves and receives signals back from the RFID tag. (
Radio Frequency Identification (RFID): What Is It? | Homeland Security, n.d.) The use of RFID in healthcare can offer many benefits in relation to patient safety, tracking, aiding in patient care, and provider satisfaction.

One pro of using RFID is when it comes to the OB unit. Since the RFID does include tracking, this ensures the baby will always be tracked while at the hospital and can be matched up with the mom to provide absolute protection and prevent a code pink ( infant and child abduction). Another advantage of utilizing RFID is our Alzheimers patients. We can also use tracking on them which goes back to aiding in patient care and safety which is our priority. 
A con to using RFID is the ability of it getting hacked. Since it is a form of technology, the chances are there for patient privacy to be violated.  Another disadvantage is the size of the card. It is very small and can be very expensive depending on insurance providers. This may not be a big deal to certain patients but we have to also think about our elderly patients and Dementia patients. 
To balance the concerns related to the cons, we need to teach, educate, and reassure our patients that their personal private information is secure. We will reassure them that their information will remain protected and safe and teach them about the use of innovative sleeves and wallets to store the smart card which will help cut down the risk percentage of hackers. 
The group of individuals that would benefit immediately from the use of RFID are our geriatric patients and Alzheimer patients.  Safety and patient care is our priority and given that our Alzheimer patients and some geri patients suffer from memory loss and confusion, this would help abundantly with medications and ADLs.  This information would be provided and saved for the physician to access as needed.

1. What are the pros and cons for using the smartcard or RFID? The pros to a smartcard would be that it acts like an ID, it’s a card that patients carry around with them and allows physicians to see medications that have been prescribed, relevant health issues, and verifies a patient’s identity as soon as the card is inserted (
Smart Cards and Patients, 2013). Or in some cases, the smartcard is a QR code on a patient’s phone that can be scanned by a provider. 

2. How would you balance the concerns related to the cons, while trying to incorporate its use into the healthcare system? The cons would be that some patients may worry about their sense of privacy being invaded, but the benefits outweigh the cons. Sometimes emergencies happen, and access to relevant health information faster could literally save a patient’s life, their child’s life, or their parent’s life. Smartcards also have security authentication such as needing to enter a PIN code or facial recognition (
SMART Health Cards, n.d.). 

3. Identify groups or individuals who could immediately benefit from the use of the technology, and why is that so? RFID can benefit infants to prevent abductions. My hospital uses RFID bands to track where infants are in the hospital, it helps prevent abductions. Whenever an ID band is not securely attached, it alarms the nurses to make sure the band hasn’t been taken off, and to verify that the infant is in the mother’s postpartum room. It also could help patients with dementia that are prone to wander. Last week where I live, we had an 80-year-old man escape from the nursing home next to where I work. Authorities searched for him for a few days, and eventually found him deceased about fifteen miles away. RFID could have saved this man’s life and prevented him from escaping the nursing home.

Explain the role spirituality can play in identity development during adolescence.  Explain how religious teen groups/programs can assist families dealing with identity development.

 
 Think about what the family has gone through and the impact has been on all family members. Chrissy was an adult when she came out to her family as a lesbian, however research is showing more and more people are coming out as early as middle school and a vast majority end of high school.  

Explain the role spirituality can play in identity development during adolescence.  Explain how religious teen groups/programs can assist families dealing with identity development.  What about teens whose views on religion/spirituality differ from their parents/family?  What resources are available for them? 
What local resources are available in your area to help both teenagers and parents understand sexual development issues from a religious stance? As a  mental health worker, how can you utilize these resources?
Access and read the GCU Statement on the Integration of Faith and Work. GCU believes that redemption as well as the restoration of all things comes through Christ Jesus. Therefore, GCU believes that the Christian worldview offers hope of restoration, not only for individuals, but also for families, communities. How could a mental health worker with the Christian worldview help a family dealing with mental health issues about sexual identity or orientation?

Patient Centric Integrated Health System is in the process of updating its new hire orientation program. Feedback from employees revealed inadequate training on the role and impact of Health Information Technology in healthcare and their organization. In addition, orientation assessments demonstrated a lack of understanding about key stakeholders, their roles, and the significance of system integration with interoperability. As a member of the Health System’s HIT Innovation Steering Committee, you are to develop a presentation for use in future orientation sessions. Use information from the readings, lectures and your own research to support your presentation content. The first step is to develop the presentation for approval by the Steering Committee.
Instructions
Compile a PowerPoint presentation using speaker notes and/or voice narration that includes:

Detailed explanation of roles and significance of HIT in healthcare and for organizations
Description of major components of an integrated HIT system
Discussion of relevant stakeholders and their role in HIT

Locate and review the practice agreements in the state in which you plan to practice, identify potential collaboration requirements in your state, and understand the certification and licensing process that you will need to follow.

 
Although a movement called the APRN Consensus Model is attempting to standardize NP regulations nationally, it is still the case that requirements vary state to state. In some states, NPs may establish an independent practice without the supervision of an MD. Additionally, states are currently categorized as either allowing full practice, reduced practice, or restricted practice. Full practice states allow NPs to evaluate, order diagnostics, diagnose, and treat patients. They are licensed under the exclusive authority of the state board of nursing for the appropriate state. Many states may require prescriptive authority protocols in addition to collaborative agreement.
Another important area to consider and plan for is prescriptive authority. The appropriate board, which may be the medical board, state board of pharmacy, or nursing board, grants prescriptive authority under state law for the appropriate state licensure. The federal government grants the authority to write for a controlled substance, and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) verifies this action through by the appropriate state board. Drug Enforcement Agency registration is granted at the federal level and has additional requirements/fees for the registration process.In this Discussion, you will locate and review the practice agreements in the state in which you plan to practice, identify potential collaboration requirements in your state, and understand the certification and licensing process that you will need to follow.
