Core competencies are key management tools that are applied in most business settings today. This refers to the unique abilities or capabilities that are established by organizations, with the aim of gaining a stronger competitive advantage in business. These capabilities are crucial in creating and delivering value services to customers or clients in any chosen field. Effective core competencies are essential in all units of the health sector, just like in any other sector. Medical and clinical professionals are required to pay attention to distinctive competencies given to them by their organizations, in order to be able to undertake their roles in ways depicting their compliance to the Codes of Conduct governing their work. This paper observes core competencies in the health sector, where capabilities of a clinical and non-clinical role are compared and contrasted, to bring out the similarities and the differences in those fields. In this context, the core competencies of a Nurse Educator and those of a Nurse Educator are examined. The core competencies of Clinical Educators and Clinical Practitioners would tend to be similar in some cases, since the two sectors share a common objective of advancing the goals of health care in the society (Institute of Medicine, 2003). However, the roles in these two sectors vary greatly, and this clearly explains the slight differences that may be observed in the structure of their core competencies. Clinical educators have the responsibility of giving clinical lessons to medical students, while Clinical practitioners are entrusted with the role of taking medical services to the society, where it is needed. In this regard, the core competencies of both Clinical Educators and Practitioners are designed to fit their specialty fields. One of the major competencies for clinical educators emphasizes the need to come up with approaches that would facilitate student understanding in various learning environments. More importantly, it is also the responsibility of Clinical Educators to ease development and socialization among the learners, to ensure they fully benefit from the many theoretical and practical lessons given to them. Clinical Educators are also required to engage in effective scholarship practices and constantly apply assessment strategies to rate the learners in diverse settings of health care (Kalb, 2008). This goal can be achieved through a number of strategies, which the educators think are
Since the beginning of the 1990s, Acibadem Healthcare Group has been in place to deliver high-quality care using the latest innovations and technology (MedRetrieat par. 1). Acibadem Healthcare Group currently occupies a leading place in the Turkish healthcare sector due to its advanced equipment (Trilogy, GammaKnife, CyberKnife, Truebeam STx, Rapidarc), highly-qualified staff, and bold and innovative projects (“About Acibadem” par. 1; MedRetrieat par. 1; “Technology” par. 3). Acibadem Healthcare Group can be considered as one of the moving forces in the Turkish healthcare that is focused on the ongoing development and improvement of the service excellence. Hospitals of the Group such as Acibadem International Hospital specialize on the provision of health care services specifically for the patients who arrive in Turkey as medical tourists; the hospital is staffed with the professionals who can speak many foreign languages such as Russian, English, Spanish, Kyrgys, and the languages of the Balkans (“International Hospital, Istanbul, Turkey” par. 1). Besides, Acibadem hospitals have been accredited by the JCI (Joint Commission International) global standards for the sector of healthcare (Turkey Health Advisor par. 1). In addition, Acibadem Labmed now has ISO 15189 accreditation level which makes it one of the most influential labs in the region (Turkey Health Advisor par. 1). The Group does not only provide a wide range of high-quality services but also delivers the excellent patient experience and a high level of the client satisfaction. Acibadem Healthcare Group currently includes 17 hospitals and 13 outpatient centers; the combined size of all the facilities of the Group equals 402000 square meters; it hires 13000 professionals (the number of physicians is 2500) (Acibadem Healthcare Group 7; Patients Beyond Borders par. 1). Moreover, the number of beds in the hospitals is 2146, and there are 98 ORs; further, according to the data of 2013, Acibadem Healthcare Group could accommodate 408660 inpatients (with 110000 surgical patients) and provide care to over 3 million outpatients; it also conducted about 6 and a half million lab tests and over 650000 of radiology tests (Acibadem Healthcare Group 7). Acibadem network spreads to 8 different countries such as Singapore, Brunei, Malaysia, India, and Macedonia among others (“Why Acibadem?” par. 2). To compare healthcare sectors of the United States of America and Turkey, it is important to identify the overall public health indicators in these countries. For instance, according to the data of 2007, life expectancy at birth in the USA (78.1) is higher than that in Turkey (73.2); however, throughout over three decades since 1970, this number has changed significantly for Turkey (from under 50 years old) and remained almost unchanged for the USA (from over 70 years old) (OECD 6). Life expectancy at 65 is twice higher in the USA population (OECD 16).
Introduction The case of Jessica Lenahan v. United States was a petition by Emily J. Martin, Lenora Lapidus, Caroline Bettinger-Lopez, Ann Beeson, Stephen Mcpherson Watt, and attorneys-at-law with the American Civil Liberties Union to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights. The petitioners presented the petition on behalf of Jessica Lenahan. The petitioners were of the opinion that the United States violated Articles I, II, V, VI, VII, IX, XVIII, and XXIV of the American Declaration of Human Rights. The bone of contention was that the United States failed to exercise due diligence to ensure that Lenahan was protected from acts of domestic violence from her husband Simon Gonzales. The perpetration of violence against her by her husband continued even when she had a restraining order. The United States failed in its duty to protect its citizen from acts of violence. The petition was declared admissible and the Commission went ahead to hear the petition. The basis of the allegations contained in the petition was weighed against article 43(1) of the Rules of Procedure. 1 The Commission based its decision on the arguments and the evidence before the parties. The Commission took the first step of ascertaining that the facts were true. The first thing to note is that there was a restraining order issued against Gonzales. The restraining order required Gonzales to refrain from any form of harassment, whether physical or emotional harm. Any form of disturbance to Lenahan would be considered as a source of emotional upset, as well as disturbance of peace. There was a reiterated restraining order giving the Colorado police authority to conduct an arrest on Gonzales if he violated any of the clauses of the restraining order. The restriction on Gonzales stipulated that he would get limited time with his daughters. The order restraining Gonzales from the custody of his daughters was to take effect from the moment it was issued. 2 The case above forms the basis of this essay. Therefore, this essay will provide a critical comment analysis of the case of Jessica Lenahan v. United States. Facts Lenahan was working in a private cleaning business at the time of the restraining order and when the events of the disagreement between her and Gonzales occurred. She used to work in the evening without the knowledge of the whereabouts of her daughters. Lenahan used to call the CRPD to explain that she had restraining orders against Gonzales. She also used to state that she was not aware of the whereabouts of her daughters and she was afraid that they were with their father, who was not allowed to stay with them at that time. The order allowed Lenahan’s husband to stay with the children during the dinner hour only. The quest for Lenahan to have the matter before the District Court was dismissed. Instead, the court held that the state was aware of the dangers facing the children in the free world. The court was also of the opinion that while the state acknowledged the problems that the children were going through, the problems were not caused by the s
E-learning is the use of technology to provide learning anywhere at any time. E-learning helps to bridge the gap of distance, time, and resources. E-learning occurs in various forms. E-learning can take place on a CD-ROM, DVD, and Local Area Network or over the internet. E-leaning comprises of Computer Based Training, Web-Based Training, Distance Learning or Electronic Performance Support Systems. E-learning is best suited for those people that intend to pursue further training while still working. This is the best method to keep employees updated with new skills and knowledge through additional training at workplaces. Otherwise, training can be very costly if employees were to attend classes or seminars in faraway places. Scheduled classes are expensive since they involve taking workers from their jobs at critical times. Companies, as well as individuals, have a variety of e-learning methods to select from, as discussed below. Some e-learning methods such as videoconferencing are very effective as learning methods because they engage the learner in active learning, while other e-learning methods such as video or distance learning are not very appropriate learning strategies because they do not give the learner an opportunity to participate in the learning process actively. Nevertheless, e-learning has been instrumental in the proliferation of new skills as well as knowledge across borders. More effective methods of e-learning that will make the learner more actively engaged in the learning process should be developed (Harasim 76). E-Learning These days many students take their education courses online through web-based computer technology. Instructors make use of electronic mail in issuing instructions as it is regarded as a quick, accurate, and very reliable means of communication. Learners then download learning materials as well as course assignments from the instructions. After finishing their assignments,
Market identification and a clear understanding of the demographic vagaries of a specific market remains one of the most important aspects of producing products that are tailored to meet the need of a market (Armstrong & Kotler, 2011). The target market for the Johnson and Johnson baby lotion will be based on a differentiated market and thus will target more on babies of five years and below. This is because the products from the company are designed to meet the needs of babies who are between this age bracket both male and female. The company’s organizational buyers consist of wholesalers and retailers in the market. The wholesalers in the country import the finished products from Johnson’s baby in containers. These wholesalers specialize in one product and may even engage in advertising the products within the country of their operations. They have large warehouses to store the product before selling it. The wholesalers sell to the retailers in smaller units. Some other retailers also act as wholesalers whereby several wholesalers come up together and purchase the Johnson baby lotion directly from the firm at a lower price and later subdivide the products among themselves. The retailer breaks the Johnson baby lotion into single packets or bottles and sells them either to the small retailers in the market or to the final consumers of the product. The factors influencing organization buying include economic conditions whereby the changes in the inflation rate and interest rates will affect the demand of Johnson products. An increase in the interest rate will lead to a reduction in the quantity demanded while a rise in inflation of importing country will also lead to reduced importation (McCarthy & Perreault, 1994). Secondly, changes in politics affect the economy of the country leading to changes in the quantity of the Johnson baby lotion product demanded. Thirdly, changes in the social environment also will affect the demand of the product. For example, if the society perceives that lotion is not good with young babies, this will automatically lead to a reduced demand for Johnson baby lotion. Fourth, is competition whereby if Johnson company competitors come up with a new product in the market, this will automatically alter the product’s demand. The factors that influence consumers’ buying behavior include cultural factors such as if use of lotion is perceived negatively in a particular community, then the demand for Johnson baby lotion in that community will be low. Secondly, there are social cultural factors such as family, reference groups, roles and status groups in the society. For example, if adult ladies prefer to use lotion rather than solid body oils, this will lead them to purchase Johnson baby lotion for their babies. Thirdly, demand is affected by personal factors such as age, occupation and lifestyl
Since the beginning of the information systems implementation, the vast majority of spheres have adopted some cutting-edge technologies to increase the effectiveness of their working process. In particular, healthcare management digital solutions allow those who apply these innovations into practice to develop an informational and communicational system that helps workers and patients to benefit from Information Technology (IT) usage. Different factors affect the speed of new technologies adoption. In the health management sphere, the information system culture is the main aspect that helps determine healthcare representatives’ willingness to implement some innovations into the process. As a result, the commercial interest and need for effectiveness increase, two culture formulating components positively influence the implication of healthcare information and communication systems into everyday working practice. First and foremost, creating a productive database is one of the most feasible approaches to significantly improve the patients’ health caring process in the short-term perspective. To be more specific, the effective information system should be based on qualitative data so that the workers can extract the important information faster and avoid disturbing others. Consequently, nowadays, the general healthcare sector culture strategically targets developing database solutions to adopt new technologies with the long-term view perspective (Nabelsi et al., 2016). On the other hand, even if the general culture implements new methods of increasing the effectiveness of the communication process, sometimes patients feel a decrease in the quality of service. As a result, it might directly influence the health management’s long-term development. Nevertheless, healthcare workers use a developed database and analyze what type of communication is preferable for certain patients and what are the most effective ones for the overall health caring process (Mamlin et al., 2016). Finally, the general culture leads the healthcare sector to the development of service, while the communication process should be analyzed more specifically so that no patient will have a feeling of service cost-optimization.

Introduction The product designed is a 130ml energy drink named Push. Push targets young gym lovers who are looking for a natural boost to ensure they are energetic enough to go through extensive workouts and achieve their fitness goals. It is important to note that gym members are often encouraged to get some nutrition before exercising. Many people that attend gyms do so either early in the morning (before work) or in the evening. Due to schedules and ideas, it has become difficult for these gym enthusiasts to get the nutrients they need before they work out. However, with this product, the target population can easily store and carry a bottle for each time they go to the gym. It is important to note that Push has a complex nutritional value. The company hired a nutritional expert to help draft the best ingredients for the energy drink. All the ingredients that were used were carefully selected to ensure that the product is low on calories and ensures fitness. The ingredients used have been indicated on the bottle to ensure that clients understand what they are taking and how it helps them achieve their fitness plans. Additionally, the size of the bottle was carefully thought through to ensure it can maintain one’s exercise tempo and still provide nutritional value for the clients. This paper provides a detailed marketing plan for the product (Push). The paper is divided into various sections that will highlight a situational analysis, discussion on segment and target market, positioning of the product in the market, a detailed discussion on the four P’s of marketing (product, price, place, and promotion), and a discussion on the implementation and control of the marketing plan. Situational Analysis This section looks at the SWOT analysis of the identified product. The section will entail a detailed discussion of each of the SWOT elements, and a summary table of the same will also be provided. Strengths One of the strengths of the product is that it has a nutritional element. As mentioned, gym enthusiasts have been encouraged to take nutrients that are very low on calories before they start their workouts. This aspect gives the product an edge over competitors that just offer energy drinks. In fact, as Morton notes, many energy drinks have a lot of calories due to the use of processed sugars as one of the ingredients (8). Push does not have any added sugars, ensuring that it is a very h
The government has various ways of collecting its revenue, domestically; it is collected through government bonds, treasury bills and levied taxes. The government through its revenue collection agency levies taxes and duties on various services and commodities sold. This is either through income taxes where workers both in the government and established private companies and organizations remit taxes which are a stipulated percentage of their earnings. The goods sold with the country also attract duties what is commonly referred to as the Value Added Tax (V.A.T). Companies too are levied taxes on the basis of their nominal share capital. Despite the noble contribution done by these kinds of domestic taxes, they are always in sufficient to support and sustain the government budgetary allocation not unless the government wants to render its citizens incapable of sustaining their livelihoods (Kaplan 120). This leaves the government with no choice but to make levy taxes on the imports for a variety of reasons which look justified or unjustified depending on the purpose it is meant to serve. The benefits accrued by the government levying taxes on goods entering its territory is to protect its territorial integrity where contraband products find their way into the economy thus causing security problems either health wise or proliferation of firearms from unknown sources. There are some developed countries that export products they consider obsolete to be used in the third world countries thus using them as their site for dumping unwanted products (Johnson & Lee 110). These wastes especially e-wastes are a danger to our environment and this is why the governments will levy taxes to act as a punitive or penalty to such imports. The self sustaining country is one that has its human resource developed and functional; so the levying of taxes on services offered from foreign experts helps the nation build capacity and develop homemade industries. However, despite the benefits of levying taxes, there are also numerous dangerous and disadvantages of levying taxes. The levy of excessive taxes on imports harms the economy because it interferes with the balance of trade where countries shy away from trading with others they feel are exploitive. The country also remains caged as foreign expertise that should otherwise build capacity of locals abscond and go to potentially friendly countries. Countries that rely on import of machinery especially less developed countries suffer in the long run as the levies on agricultural goods cannot give double coincidence. This limits trade. Regional integration is also hampered because of tariff barriers will is a potential recipe for chaos and war. Social Security The United States of America being caring nation, from start after world war II decided to caution its senior citizen from the misery associated with retirement by incepting four major funds which were Federal Old Age and Survival Insurance Trust Fund established in 1940. The second was Federal Disability Insurance Trust Fund of 1956 and the last one was the Federal Hospital Insurance F
