Identify 10-15 financial and nonfinancial metrics used to assess the viability of opening a satellite clinic.
I need this done today today!!!!

As the Learning Exercise states, you are the business manager who has been tasked with researching the financial viability of opening a satellite clinic. Identify which things you should measure to determine if you open the satellite clinic.

Create a slide presentation (15 slides including title and reference slides) that addresses the following:

Identify 10-15 financial and nonfinancial metrics used to assess the viability of opening a satellite clinic. From this list, select three financial and three nonfinancial metrics that are the most important and explain their significance (net revenue, demographics, customer relations). Where will you find, and how will you gather, the identified metrics you need to develop your assessment? Be sure to identify each metric as external or internal.
Provide a description for each selected metric (total of six descriptions). Depending on the data provided, how can each metric affect the plans for the new clinic? Assuming the satellite clinic will open, how will you set up a monitoring and adjustment program? List the required steps. Why is a monitoring, evaluating, and adjusting strategy essential to overall organizational success for the new clinic? Provide two possible events that a successful monitoring program could identify and what adjustments could apply.

In this Discussion you explore resources that have been designed to help guide you through the process of workflow assessment.

As you explored last week, the implementation of a new technology can dramatically affect the workflow of an organization. Newly implemented technologies can initially limit the productivity of users as they adjust to their new tools. Such implementations tend to be so significant that they often require workflows to be redesigned in order to achieve improvements in safety and patient outcomes. However, before workflows can be redesigned, they must first be analyzed. This analysis includes each step in completing a certain process. Some systems duplicate efforts or contain unnecessary steps that waste time and money and could even jeopardize patient health care. By reviewing and modifying the workflow, you enable greater productivity. This drive to implement new technologies has elevated the demand for nurses who can perform workflow analysis.

In this Discussion you explore resources that have been designed to help guide you through the process of workflow assessment.

To prepare:

Take a few minutes and peruse the information found in the article “Workflow Assessment for Health IT Toolkit” listed in this week’s Learning Resources.
o As you check out the information located on the different tabs, identify key concepts that you could use to improve a workflow in your own organization and consider how you could use them.

o Go the Research tab and identify and read one article that is of interest to you and relates to your specialty area.

Post on or

a summary of three different concepts you found in “Workflow Assessment for Health IT Toolkit” that would help in redesigning a workflow in the organization in which you work (or one with which you are familiar) and describe how you would apply them.
Next, summarize the article you selected and assess how you could use the information to improve workflow within your organization.
Finally, evaluate the importance of monitoring the effect of technology on workflow.

What legal authority do these documents provide for decision making by family and/or healthcare providers?

Application Papers
Relating course content to the current healthcare environment is an integral part of

your learning; this also helps develop your awareness of the critical importance of

legal and ethical issues. Two (2) application papers are required in this course.

These papers will give you the opportunity to apply course content, should be

3 to 5 typed pages each, and will be due at the end of the designated weeks.

The format for both papers should be in APA.

The topics for these two papers are noted below. Refer to at least one outside

source, in addition to your text, as you prepare each of these papers.

Paper 1: Professional Liability—select an allied health (nonphysician) profession;

this can be your own profession or another profession that interests you. Some

examples of allied health professions include physical therapy, respiratory therapy,

pharmacy, nursing, physician assisting, radiography, ultrasonography, nuclear

medicine, medical laboratory, medical assisting, phlebotomy, and many others.

Discuss a situation in which an individual in this profession might be held liable for

negligence. Also discuss ways to proactively avoid or prevent negligence in the

profession that you selected.

Paper 2: Advance Directives—research and discuss the legal and ethical

basis for Advance Directives such as the Living Will and Durable Power of

Attorney for healthcare. Why are these documents so valuable in healthcare situations?

What legal authority do these documents provide for decision making by family and/or

healthcare providers? Briefly discuss a situation in which a Living Will might apply and

would be of benefit to those involved. Once you have researched and discussed

Advance Directives, draft a sample Living Will, indicating the type of content that

should be found in such a document. Some students take this opportunity to prepare

their own actual Living Will, and that certainly is encouraged.

Is globalization a threat or an advantage? Conduct your research on how globalization has affected different countries around the world.

For the group presentation the class has been divided into groups of four. Each group has to conduct research on a global issue that threatens the world as a whole. First establish the exigency. Is the issue you chose really a global threat?

Sources: You are required to use at-least one source per member, which means if there are four members, you will use four sources to support your argumentative presentation. Use academic sources.

Two global issues have been listed below. You can either choose to present on one of these two issues, or you can choose your own topic.

Topic (i) Globalization

Is globalization a threat or an advantage? Conduct your research on how globalization has affected different countries around the world. Collect data and show evidence to support your claim for or against globalization.

Topic (ii) Food

Are genetically modified foods safe for us? Collect local (U.S.) data about health issues related to modified food, and compare it to the data collected from two different countries that do not allow the use of genetically modified organisms. You might also want to compare the economic data. Is the genetically modified food cheaper than the food available in the non GMO countries? Are GMOs costing us more money through medical bills?

These are some generic questions. You might want to create your own questions. Explain the central issues and questions within that area of research and identify various possible paths for more detailed inquiry

This is a group project. Both, the process (individual contribution), as well as, the product will be graded. Based on your personal contribution, each member of the team might score a different grade.

Group members are responsible to divide the work load equally amongst the group. Each member should contribute towards the research and the construction of the PowerPoint presentation.

The presentation should have a clear thesis statement and conclusion that knits the work of all group members into one whole presentation. The overall presentation should flow and there should be no choppiness.

Each member of the team is responsible to construct at-least eight argumentative slides; two of these slides will include a visual (Graph/table).
Each member will interpret the collected data/visual in his/her own words.
Each member will cite the sources he or she uses to support the claim. Add both, in-text citations, as well as, a list of references.
Later, one member of the team will transfer all these citations to a collaborative reference list.
Cite all visuals, data, pictures and text you borrow from the sources. Anything that is not your creation needs to be cited.
Altogether, depending on how many team members you have, each group will submit eight slides per member.
Avoid too much use of textual matter.
Use formal language.
Presentation should be consistent and easy to follow. It should make sense without having to read your paper, or without having to ask for an explanation.
Each slide should have the name of the person who created the slide. Place the name as a footnote. If a member did not participate in the creation of the presentation, please do not add that member’s name to the title page.
