This assignment requires you to interview one person and requires an analysis of your interview experience.

Part I: Interview

Select a patient to interview, be sure to focus on the interviewee’s experience as a patient.

Create a spiritual assessment for evaluating the spiritual needs of the patient. Create your own tool for assessing the spiritual needs of patient.

Your spiritual needs assessment survey must include a minimum of FIVE questions that can be answered during the interview. During the interview, document the interviewee’s responses.

The transcript should include the questions asked and the answers provided. Be sure to record the responses during the interview by taking detailed notes. Omit specific names and other personal information through which the interviewee can be determined.

Part II: Analysis

Write a 750 word analysis of your interview experience. Be sure to exclude specific names and other personal information from the interview. Instead, provide demographics such as sex, age, ethnicity, and religion. Include the following in your response:

1. What went well?
2. Were there any barriers or challenges that inhibited your ability to complete the assessment tool?      How would you address these in the future or change your assessment to better address these challenges?
3. How can this tool assist you in providing appropriate interventions to meet the needs of your patient?
4. Did you discover that illness and stress amplified the spiritual concern and needs of your interviewee? Explain your answer with examples.

Submit both the transcript of the interview and the analysis of your results. This should be submitted as one document. The interview transcript does not figure into the word count.

Prepare this assignment according to the guidelines found in the APA Style Guide.

Your health care organization has had several small compliance incidents in the past two years, and the organization is now motivated to update their compliance program. Your executive leadership team asked you to review two health care compliance programs from similar organizations to determine how they constructed their compliance program and what aspects your organization should adopt.

Select the type of health care organization you want represented in this assignment (e.g., family practice, hospital, urgent care, or nursing home).

Locate two compliance program documents from comparable health care organizations using your Internet search engine.

Read both compliance program documents and examine the similarities and differences between the two.

Create a matrix that compares how both organizations execute the following compliance components:

• How internal monitoring and auditing is conducted
• How compliance and practice standards are implemented
• The designated compliance officer (or person designated to be the contact for compliance matters), who that person reports to, and their relationship to the organization’s governing board
• How employees are trained and educated to model compliant behaviors
• How violations or offenses are detected, reported, and corrected
• How lines of communication with employees is developed
• How disciplinary standards are enforced

Write a 525- to 700-word executive summary that informs your executive leadership about the matrix you created and offer your opinion as to which best practices the organization should adopt for its own compliance program.

Cite the 2 compliance program documents and any additional references that support your opinion (e.g., trade or industry publications, government or agency websites, scholarly works, or other sources of similar quality)

Communicable Disease and Infectious Disease.  Sexually Transmitted Disease and HIV and AIDS.     

Review the attached PowerPoint presentations.  Once done answer the following questions:  

1.  In your own words and using the proper evidence-based references define communicable and infectious disease.  Discuss if there is any similarity and how they related each other.  Give some example of communicable disease and infectious disease and why they are classified like that.  

2.  Discuss the vaccination requirement in our state (Florida), and tell me if they are given to prevent communicable of infectious disease.  Give examples.  

3.  Discuss why is no a “typical” STI patient.  Why does the presence of STI greatly increased the risk of HIV transmission?  

4.  Present an overview of the medication Prep (Truvada) and discuss the pros and cons of the use of this medication in the prevention of communicable and infectious disease.

Comment1

According to Grove, Gray, & Burns (2015), extraneous variables are present in all studies and can affect the study and the relationships among the variables.  Researchers
must continually look for extraneous variables throughout the research to prevent a biased impact.  They can be confounding, which means they are not recognized until the study is in progress, or environmental, which includes the climate, family, etc. Extraneous variables are more of a concern in quantitative research because they can prevent the researcher from obtaining a clear understanding and they are not recognized until the study is in progress but profoundly affect the outcome of the study (Gray, et al, 2015).  While in most qualitative studies, extraneous variables are usually controlled because subjects are studied in their natural environments.  By selecting a sampling of
participants who are characteristic of the population being studied, extraneous variables can be controlled by the researcher.   Grove, et al (2015) provides the example of research on the effect of relaxation therapy and the patient’s perception of incisional pain.  In order to control extraneous variables, the researcher needed a sampling of patients who are in a hospital environment and receiving one type of intravenous pain medication.   This type of sampling would reduce the extraneous variables such as surgical incision and time, amount and type of pain medication administered postoperatively and their perception of incisional pain (Grove, et al, 2015).

Comment 2

There are 4 types of extraneous variables:

*Situational variables- which are aspects of the environment that might affect the participant’s behavior. For example; noise, temperature, lighting conditions. Situational variables should be controlled so they are the same for all participants.

*Participant/person variables- This refers to the ways in which each participant varies from the other, and how this could affect the results. For example; mood, intelligence, anxiety, nerves, concentration.

*Experimenter/ investigator effects- The experimenter unconsciously conveys to participants how they should behave – this is called experimenter bias.

*Demand characteristics- these are all the clues in an experiment which convey to the participant the purpose of the research. Experimenters should attempt to minimize these factors by keeping the environment as natural as possible, carefully following standardized procedures.
