    I would recommend training and regulations in using the system. I would also address the importance of accurate information reported. The system is used to compile reports that are required by the federal government under various grant programs; therefore, every single employee needs to remember that this is a non-profit organization and in order to operate successfully, we need the funding and resources available to accomplish our mission and goals. I would address and reinforce administrators that their major responsibility is to maintain and monitor the accuracy of data entries. Managers typically are interested in structuring an organizational architecture that will work well and does not depend on specific people filling particular jobs. Individuals come and go and the manager wants an organization that will work well as these changes occur (p. 34). With this being…

    How does one achieve hero status? To me, there are two definitions of hero, (1) a person who is regarded as a model that is respected for qualities or achievements, and (2) anyone that in the face of danger and adversity or from a position of weakness displays courage and the will for self-sacrifice. The heroes or heroines in The Help are the latter. The Help by Kathryn Stockett is a novel about black maids in Jackson, Mississippi in 1962. The black maids work with Skeeter Phelan, a young white woman, to write a tell-all book about what it’s like to work as a black maid in the white homes of the segregated South. The chapters are narrated through the eyes of the three main heroes—Aibileen, Minny, and Skeeter. Skeeter Phelan is an aspiring writer who wants to create a series of truthful interviews with local black maids. “I’d like to write this showing the point of view of the help…They raise a white child and then twenty years later the child becomes the employer. It’s that irony, that they love us, yet…We don’t even allow them to use the toilet in the house. (p. 123).” Even if they're published anonymously, the risk is great; still, Aibileen and Minnie agree to participate, and they boldly recruit other maids to…

    Electronic Medical Records

    Admittedly, putting an interconnected network of EMR systems throughout a country is a daunting prospect and will be time-consuming and expensive. Getting a single facility to make the switchover from standard physical records would be a challenge. The cost of purchasing the required equipment, providing training for staff and the long task of converting existing records into an electronic format have given most medical facilities reason for pause. In addition, with this technology there are associated privacy concerns. As one Director of Information Systems by the name of Lincoln Stein outlined in a paper (Stein, 1997), these concerns are over the possibility of the system being ‘hacked’ into or even legitimate access being abused by inquisitive personnel. These crucial issues have to be addressed from the outset of the design of any such system. However, they are not insurmountable and careful forethought and security restrictions the EMR system can be protected and considered safe. The potential good of its implementation outweighs with the potential bad.…
