    The United States is the leading health care spender in the world. It has the highest proportion of specialist physicians and world-renowned surgeons yet it falls short in quality of care. This becomes a problem when an increasing number of patients report long wait times, late test results, and medication errors. Americans also describe their interactions with primary physicians as short, meaningless and confusing including chronic disease patients who feel as if they are treated far worse than healthy patients (Burns, Dyer & Bailit, 2010). There are many reasons for lack of quality care, ranging from low adoption rates of electronic medical records to the splintered United States care system.…

    I have been working in a nursing home for a little over a year as a dietary aide and have witnessed many problems within the dietary department. The root cause to all of the problems in the dietary department is bad management from my former manager, Sara.

Bad management existed in the kitchen because Sara gave overtime to her employees like it was candy. The kitchen was understaffed for the past couple of months and so the only way that Sara resolved this issue was to give out overtime.…

    I have not had any experiences with the Comprehensive Plan of Care. My understanding is that the Comprehensive Plan of Care is an individualized plan that addresses the child’s needs in an explicit fashion and is based on standardized and culturally appropriate assessments. It is inclusive by involving the child, the child's parent(s), caregiver, extended family and aboriginal community, if the child is aboriginal, to the fullest extent possible in assessment and decision making for the child. I think the benefit of this type of case planning tool is that it can be critically reviewed and revised in assuring that the plan is relevant and meaningful and has the support for the child.
