Expense Forecasting

Expense Forecasting and Benchmarking

Looking Ahead: Application Assignment: Expense Forecasting and Financial Analysis Cycle

You will begin this assignment in Week 9 and it will be due by Day 7 of Week 10.

Throughout this course, you’ve examined the importance of anticipating financial fluctuations that may impact your organization’s ability to provide services. While financial managers have no time machines or crystal balls, they do have expense forecasts. Expense forecasting is one of the preeminent tools that financial managers can use to prepare their organizations for future fiscal turbulence. In this Assignment, you will examine a scenario and generate a corresponding expense forecast in Excel.

Before pursuing an opportunity or making a major purchase, financial decision makers must first ascertain if the expenditures are justified. Determining whether a new process, system, or purchase will yield worthwhile returns is no easy task. However, managers have a variety of tools to help them decide whether the new expenditure is warranted. Analyzing a venture’s benefit/cost ratio, marginal profit and loss statement, and break-even points enable nurse managers to make educated decisions about how they choose to commit their funds.

Note: For those Assignments in this course that require you to perform calculations you must:

  • Use the Excel spreadsheet template for the Week 3 assignment
  • Show all your calculations and formulas in the spreadsheet.
  • Answer any questions included with the problems (as text in the Excel spreadsheet).

pain meds.

My population is adolescents on pain meds.

By performing a situational analysis, planners can help anticipate and manage change. For the external environment, planners look at opportunities and threats. For the internal environment, planners look at strengths and weaknesses. Reflect on the population you selected. Think about (or research) what trends are impacting your population. In a 2-3 page paper, list each of the environmental sectors (internal and external) described in the lecture this week. Briefly describe key opportunities, threats, strengths and weaknesses for each of those sectors. Be sure to format your paper per APA standards and be sure to use at least two sources and cite those in the paper. Also, be sure to include a reference page. For more information about APA, visit the Online Library, which is available through the Resources tab.

community health clinic

As an advanced practice nurse at a community health clinic, you often treat female (and sometimes male patients) with hormone deficiencies. One of your patients requests that you prescribe supplemental hormones. This poses the questions: How will you determine what kind of treatment to suggest? What patient factors should you consider? Are supplemental hormones the best option for the patient, or would they benefit from alternative treatments?

 

 

 

To prepare:

 

Review Chapter 56 of the Arcangelo and Peterson text, as well as the Holloway and Makinen and Huhtaniemi  and  Hollway  articles in the Learning Resources.

 

Review the provided scenario and reflect on whether or not you would support hormone replacement therapy.

 

Locate and review additional articles about research on hormone replacement therapy for women and/or men. Consider the strengths and limitations of hormone replacement therapy.

Genitalia and Rectum

Assessing the Genitalia and Rectum

Patients are frequently uncomfortable discussing with health care professionals issues that involve the genitalia and rectum; however, gathering an adequate history and properly conducting a physical exam are vital. Examining case studies of genital and rectal abnormalities can help prepare advanced practice nurses to accurately assess patients with problems in these areas.

In this Discussion, you will consider case studies that describe abnormal findings in patients seen in a clinical setting.

Note: By Day 1 of this week, your Instructor will have assigned you to one of the following specific case studies for this Discussion. Also, your Discussion post should be in the SOAP Note format, rather than the traditional narrative style Discussion posting format. Refer to Chapter 2 of the Sullivan text and the Comprehensive SOAP Template in the Week 4 Learning Resources for guidance. Remember that not all comprehensive SOAP data are included in every patient case.

Case : TB

 

To prepare:

With regard to the case study you were assigned:

·        Review this week’s Learning Resources, and consider the insights they provide about the case study.

·        Consider what history would be necessary to collect from the patient in the case study you were assigned.

·        Consider what physical exams and diagnostic tests would be appropriate to gather more information about the patient’s condition. How would the results be used to make a diagnosis?

·        Identify at least five possible conditions that may be considered in a differential diagnosis for the patient.

Post a Soap note

1.      a description of the health history you would need to collect from the patient in the case study to which you were assigned.

air pollution

as example of air pollution, we periodically hear of carbon monoxide fatalities particularly during the winter months, when families are using generators inappropriately during power outages.

A pioneer of industrial toxicology, Alice Hamilton, could have studied cases of carbon monoxide overexposure in the work place.

However, which three historical events in environmental epidemiology have resulted in the most severe health outcomes. What data or statistical evidence do you have to support this with APA formatted sources?  

Where/when did it occur? Did any laws or regulations develop as a result, such as with DDT? Please discuss and be sure to include the APA formatted source that gives veracity to your remarks.
