Communication in Health CareOne of the most important factors for quality patient care in any health care facility is strong and clear communication between caregivers and patients. Such communication must be effective in both directions, and it must be mutually understood.
In your reflection paper, please describe constructive approaches to overcoming communication barriers in a health care organization. Also, describe how effective communication will have an impact on your future learning opportunities in a health care organization.
Your reflection paper should be two pages in length. If you reference items from the textbook or literature, be sure to cite and reference them. APA formatting, however, will not be required for this assignment.

Step 5: EHR Testing: Unit testing, Integrated testing, Performance Testing
Now that your team has implemented the EHR, you will test whether it performs the desired functions and meet the requirements. Three (3) most common types of IT system testing are:
Unit Testing or Component Testing implies that the individual components (clinical, administrative, pharmacy, lab., digital imaging, etc.) of the EHR system function as desired and specified in the RFP; Integrated Testing means that these components function in harmony and interoperate; and Performance Testing (also called stress testing or maximum load testing) ensures that the system performs normally under maximum or significant load (happens in the morning when all staff starts working with EHR) to check for robustness, availability and error handling beyond the normal operational capacity.
You were advised by your manager to schedule these tests. Thus, your team will undertake the above three types of testing before Closing or Signing off the project. He asked you to describe the methodology and steps you would perform to accomplish this task.
Paper: Explain your rationale for the items above. Support your discussion with references from the suggested articles provided below as well as other peer-reviewed research. Include high level test plan in table format.
You were asked to consult the following resources before proceeding.

For this Assignment, you will identify a public health issue (topic) and a target population from within your community. The specific community health issue and target population selected for this intervention must be a verifiable health topic and target in your specific community. Then, using any of the theories/models discussed in this course, you will create an intervention to address this public health issue. The constructs of the theory/model chosen must be used in the creation of the intervention to address the selected population health issue. The resulting intervention must attempt to impact health behaviors or threats to the health and well-being of the selected target population.
This Assignment is about being creative and innovative, within the confines of evidence-based theory and producing an intervention. Your intervention can be either a one-time shot or long-term program that could be of value in addressing the specific need within the community in which you reside. Budget is not necessarily a concern here, so go wild if you like! Grading for this assignment will consider the following:
Understanding of the theory/model chosen
Feasibility of the intervention created based on the theory/model constructs
Level of creativity in addressing an identified community issue
To prepare:
Explain why you chose the particular public health issue within your community. (Examples might be alcohol use reduction for teens at prom, anti-smoking campaigns for construction workers, HIV/AIDS education programs for elementary students, disease prevention and health promotion for seniors at a long-term care facility, or increasing diagnostic testing participation for colonoscopies with middle-class women over 60 years of age.)
The specific topic and target population must be selected from your community and must be a verifiable issue. To be verifiable, it must have been a newspaper story, a health department memo or newsletter, a city proclamation, or any issue for which you can provide actual documentation, to verify, that the issue you chose was one currently or recently occurring in your community. That documentation must be provided with your response.
Choose a specific theory or model, and explain why you are using this one in creating an intervention to address this public health issue. Your intervention must use the constructs of the theory/model and must be specific to the target group, for that topic, in your community. For example, the Social-Ecological Model (discussed last MOD) is composed of levels, namely interpersonal, intrapersonal, institutional, community, and societal. It is based on the belief that change within the physical and social environments will also influence health behavior within individuals. Consequently, if one chose the SEM as their theory/model, emphasis on the 5 levels would be critical. If, on the other hand, the Social Capital Theory was chosen, it is based on networks and relationships, with the two important factors being trust and reciprocity. So, your intervention most certainly would address cooperation, working together, and building strong bonds for healthy relationships and communities.
Write an 8- to 9-page paper (not including title page and references) that includes the following:
Title page
Introduction of public health issue and target population with documentation and brief explanation ( DRUG USE IN YOUNG ADULT MEN)
Theory/model to be employed in addressing issue (explain why you chose this theory/model)
Identify the constructs of the theory/model and explain how they apply to your community issue
At least one paragraph specifically describing your intervention for each construct
Evaluation of intervention
