Application: PICO Analysis of Dementia
A PICO analysis is used to pose a focused clinical question to which you find appropriate evidence-based answers. The PICO question should include the patient or population (P), anticipated intervention (I), comparison group or current standard (C), and outcome desired (O). In this Assignment, you develop a question related to dementia. Through your PICO analysis, you explore various resources and examine current evidence to answer the question you develop.
To prepare:
Select one of the following disorders as your topic: dementia.
Review the guidelines in the “Literature Review Matrix” document in this week’s Learning Resources. (see last part)
Think about a research question around your issue as indicated in Part I: PICO Analysis of Research Topic.
Consider the resources you will use, search terms and criteria, and Boolean search strings as indicated in Part II: Search Strategy.
Using the Walden Library and other appropriate databases, locate five articles related to your PICO question. At least one article must be a systematic review. All of the articles should be primary sources.
Reflect on the five articles you selected as indicated in Part III: Analysis of Literature. Consider the conceptual framework/theory, main finding, research method, strengths of study, weaknesses, and level of evidence for each article.
Consider how to use the summaries in Part III to create an evidence table. Use this evidence table to determine appropriate treatment options for patients who present with the disorder you selected as your topic.
To complete:
Formulate a question around the disorder you selected as indicated in Part I: PICO Analysis of Research Topic.
Identify the resources you will use, search terms and criteria, and Boolean search strings as indicated in Part II: Search Strategy.
Summarize the five articles you selected as indicated in Part III: Analysis of Literature. Describe the conceptual framework/theory, main finding, research method, strengths of study, weaknesses, and level of evidence for each article.

Who decides whether these particular products should continue to be produced and offered for sale?
/in Uncategorized /by JosephNo Show more Think of a business firm you recently visited (such as Walmart Home Depot Red Lobster Barnes & Noble McDonalds etc.). What motivated the producers of all the individual products in the store to make them and offer them for sale? How did the producers decide on the best combinations of resources to use? Who made those resources available and why? How does the market determine who will get the goods and services? Who decides whether these particular products should continue to be produced and offered for sale? How do these decisions differ between capitalist and socialist systems?

Describe in detail your sources for tracking the status of pending legislation as well as the provisions for complying with recently enacted laws.
/in Uncategorized /by JosephThe goal of corporate officers is to position their business entities in the marketplace to ensure optimal competitiveness. This goal applies whether the entity produces goods, services, or information, or whether the entity is an international conglomerate or a start-up venture. Management faces special challenges, for example, in the case of mergers. The challenge can be greater when units that span international boundaries merge. Human resource managers must always be aware of the influences, whether environmental, organizational, or individual, to lead their businesses through challenging times.In the following scenarios, your company has just been subsumed by a large multinational firm, Pomodoro, Ltd., a food and beverage industry giant. Your previous company, Thompson Snack Foods, manufactured and distributed snack foods in the southeast United States. Your product line included organic potato and corn chips, pretzels, and peanuts. You have been asked to stay on as HR manager, and you look forward to working with the new management team. Your new boss, recently transferred from the firm’s offices in Brussels, has called a meeting for Monday morning.Scenarios1. Develop a PowerPoint presentation for your new boss, the stateside director of operations, who has concerns about your firm’s ability to comply with federal HR regulations. In your presentation, identify the HR unit’s policies and procedures for keeping abreast of changes in HR laws. Describe in detail your sources for tracking the status of pending legislation as well as the provisions for complying with recently enacted laws. Your sources might include Web sites, HR-related organization memberships, magazines, and listservs.2. Your boss has also requested information about the latest government regulations on sexual harassment. Conduct a Web search and then prepare a two-or-three-page memorandum for your boss outlining the procedures you recommend the firm adopt to reduce potential liability if charged with sexual harassment.3. Your new boss has made it clear he wants the firm to comply with U.S. regulations. In addition, he wants to inform the firm’s staff that a zero tolerance policy for harassment of any sort is in effect. Develop a PowerPoint presentation for use at a sexual harassment training seminar at your firm. Begin by defining harassment. Session attendees would include American and international employees.4. On October 17, 2000, an immigration law titled the American Competitiveness in the Twenty-First Century Act was enacted. The high-tech industry heavily supported the provision that allowed H-1B employees to start work immediately. Research this law and develop a three-page position paper identifying the issues most important to your firm. Why was the high-tech industry so heavily invested in the bill’s passage? Be sure to discuss thoroughly the pros and cons of the bill.5. Develop a white paper defining the issues you believe most critical for HR managers to address. Then develop a training plan for a midsize manufacturing corporation (5001,000 employees). For this exercise, simply list the courses by topic that you would include. As a follow-on exercise in subsequent modules, you will be asked to develop a full-blown training program plan for the firm.

Describe the initiation of the OT process at your site including referral, screening and initial assessment.
/in Uncategorized /by JosephDescribe the initiation of the OT process at your site including referral, screening and initial assessment. Describe the caseload, for example population served and number of clients treated on OT caseload per day/week. Include any pertinent job functions of the occupational therapist outside of treating their case load.( 3 paragraphs)
The initiation of the OT process at Independent assisted Living (IALs), memory care facility, and IAL for nuns starts with referral patient by the MD. Also OT participated in the each facility meeting ones a week where managers, director go over progress or regress of each patient and OT can focus if somebody need help too, then usually she give patient information to her assistant, who is getting more information from the doctor. Most of the patients in these facilities come from home.
During the initial evaluation the OT assess through DaSH, Barthex, SPADI and use depended on the pt independency of ADLs and IADLs, also assess ROM and strength, muscle tone, MMT. The OT does not use a cognitive assessment; she thinks that is inappropriate to use it, because in pt history tells that she/he has dementia, or cognitive impairment. All of the ADLs are rated on the FOM scale. OT uses Wedoc documented program.
Mostly of the patients have shoulder injury and urinary incontinence. Usually OT works with 2-3 units twice a week for each patient. IAL facility has 9 caseload, the memory community has 2 caseloads and nuns community have 5 caseloads. Overall OT has 8 caseloads per day.
The population is about 65 and + years old, they joke that some of them just older, then elder, then elderly elderly 90+. At the nuns community are only elder women.
OT who I work with is responsible for educating patients about supply and adaptive equipment and assists them with any help. Some previous patients, who were discharge long time ago, sometimes visit her and ask for advice or help with installing in the right place grab bar or change the walker length. She does massage with bio freeze for patients or coworker who has neck or shoulder pain. Also last week was a wellness week, where each facility has a one-hour spa treatment. OT was the leader of that idea and participated as well. Also she buys from her own pocket bio freeze or hot cold pack, for patient who is going to travel.
