Essays on Florida

This discussion is a review of the protected health information (PHI) regulatory requirement as advanced by the state of Florida, the federal government’s HHS, and the Joint Commission (TJC). I believe that this regulatory measure stemmed out of HIPAA (1996) requirement that facilities restructure their electronic exchange, security, and privacy initiatives concerning PHI. The HHS, therefore, would direct, through Sections 261-264, that hospitals publicize their adherence procedures pertaining these issues. The following is an analysis of these three entities. The state of Florida, through Statute 456.057, advice that hospitals treat PHIs with the respect they deserve. Here, such ...

Identify 3 Social Determinants of Health in Community

Unemployment, lack of access to affordable healthcare, and lack of proper nutrition and fitness among children and young adults are 3 major social health determinants in the city of Hialeah. The rate of unemployment is 7% which is significantly higher compared to the state average of 5.6% (City of Hialeah 2017).

Healthcare risk management is an effort that is organized in a bid to identify, evaluate and reduce risk to patients, employees and visitors alike. The biggest asset of a hospital (besides the equipment the hospital owns) is the reputation it holds. The Florida Statute for risk management (Cap 395.0197) requires that each licensed medical facility is to have an internal risk management program led by the risk manager. The risk manager’s duty is to reduce and if possible prevent risk, and to enhance the safety of the patient. The risk manager carries out evaluation and control of risks ...

Abstract

Numerous attempts to reform health care in the United States on the federal level have been made since the 1930s, but differences between each state represent a significant barrier to every previous federal health care reform.

The purpose of this paper is to compare and contrast the effects of the health care reform in California and Florida, as well as the positions of the two states. It was found that the insurance ...

The Happiest Place on Earth - Disney World in Orlando, Florida. Or is it actually Disneyland in Anaheim, California?

Fostering Successful Emergency Planning

Fostering a successful emergency plan ensures that the plan focuses on intensive training and exercises. In doing so, the plan reinforces emergency preparedness for a number of potential emergencies. The exercises that emergency planners can create to test their plans include trial or testing through prototypes and operations, rehearsing the plan and explaining the plan to others and memorizing it (‎Perry, 2016). The best way to access emergencies is through trials. I believe this is true because when accessing emergency systems using trial, one bases the trial on socialist systems. The use of socialist systems in responding to emergencies ...

Interview with a pharmacist

Interview:

Apparently, over the counter medications are those that can be sold to the client without necessarily having any prescription by the provider. The Food and Drug Administration has been at the forefront in monitoring the adherence to issues of over the counter medications so that pharmacists do not sell other medications not classified as OTC. Similarly, the FDA has over time made changes and reviews on the regulations and rules that guide OTC medication sales (West, Wilk, Rae, Muszynski, Stipec, Alter & Regier, 2015). One of the emerging issues that have affected the pharmacists is the introduction of a ...

The idea of Medicaid expansion was initially received by the common American population with mixed reviews. Some thought it was a great idea, and wondered why nobody had thought of it sooner.

The expansion was federally funded, likely to coerce as many states as possibly into expanding Medicaid for their populations. In states that adopted it, the expansion offers healthcare to all men, women, and children ...

Commedia dell’arte is literally translated as a comedy of crafts, meaning the crafts of improvisation. According to David L. Hurst, “The word arte implied the incorporation of the dramatic arts; it brought together those who were authorized to perform for the counts, dukes, etc” (Nikole). The comedy is thus performed by the professionals, meaning, actors who are capable enough to improvise or perform at least self-impromptu. The quality of the play would thus by no means suffer because of its off-hand nature. Developed in Italy during the 16th and 17th centuries and flourishing since them, it may confidently ...

A merger is the unification of companies. Usually, there are five types of mergers: product extension mergers, conglomerate merger, market extension merger, horizontal merger, and vertical merger.

The difference between the two strategies is that a merger is meant to combine the interests of the business entities involved thereby creating a firm that is much stronger. In mergers, the two combining companies usually get a new name. The merging companies are mostly the same size. On ...

YOURSCHOOLHERE The Seminole Tribe of Florida (n.d.) points out with pride that the Seminole Indians fought the army of the United States of America to a standstill until, eventually, President John Tyler ordered the “end of military actions” on May 10, 1842. How could it be insulting or demeaning, in the light of this history, for Florida State University to name its (often powerhouse) sports teams The Seminoles.

One view about this would be that women were relegated to the second position in the power chain in the family and society, while men were the overall power holders. On the other hand, when the working economy came into place, circumstances pushed women to join formal employment, ...
