The practice of health care providers at all levels brings you into contact with people from a variety of faiths. This calls for knowledge and understanding of a diversity of faith expressions; for the purpose of this course, the focus will be on the Christian worldview.

Based on "Case Study: End of Life Decisions," the Christian worldview, and the worldview questions presented in the required topic study materials you will complete an ethical analysis of George's situation and his decision from the perspective of the Christian worldview.

Provide a 1,500-2,000-word ethical analysis while answering the following questions:

1. How would George interpret his suffering in light of the Christian narrative, with an emphasis on the fallenness of the world?
2. How would  George interpret his suffering in light of the Christian narrative, with an emphasis on the hope of resurrection?
3. As George contemplates life with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), how would the Christian worldview inform his view about the value of his life as a person?
4. What sorts of values and considerations would the Christian worldview focus on in deliberating about whether or not George should opt for euthanasia?
5. Given the above, what options would be morally justified in the Christian worldview for George and why?
6. Based on your worldview, what decision would you make if you were in George's situation?

Remember to support your responses with the topic study materials.

Assignment 4: Given Mon. Sept. 12th for Wed. Sept. 14th: Read Living Large, chapter 5, pp. 89-99 + Appendix VII (253-256). Answer the three below: 1. How is the sense of being separate, alone and in danger tied to the Modern Worldview? Check Appendices XVI and XVII and then use your own examples. How might beginning from oneness – from what joins us at the deep levels – positively affect ethics? Discuss. 2. In Appendix VII, I present definitions of manipulation, paternalism and non-manipulative persuasion. Give the definition for each and give an example of each. 3. Show how moving from Manipulative Persuasion (MP) to Non-manipulative Persuasion (NMP) in any of the three domains aids us to think and act in a more ethical manner. *********************************************************************************************************************** NOTE: In the upcoming assignments, you will be asked to do certain practices for a day and then to write about what you learn.

Plan your practices accordingly. ************************************************************************************************************************

To be married in Las Vegas, Clark County, Nevada, a bride must swear that she is eighteen or has parental permission and a bridegroom that he is twentyone or has parental permission. Someone must put up five dollars for the license. (On Sundays and holidays, fifteen dollars. The Clark County Courthouse issues marriage licenses at any time of the day or night except between noon and one in the afternoon, between eight and nine in the evening, and between four and five in the morning.) Nothing else is required. The State of Nevada, alone among these United States, demands neither a premarital blood test nor a waiting period before or after the issuance of a marriage license.

... Las Vegas is the most extreme and allegorical of American settlements, bizarre and beautiful in its venality and in its devotion to immediate gratification, a place the tone of which is set by mobsters and call girls and ladies' room attendants with amyl nitrite poppers in their uniform pockets. Almost everyone notes that there is no "time" in Las Vegas, no night and no day and no past and no future (no Las Vegas casino, however, has taken the obliteration of the ordinary time sense quite so far as Harold's Club in Reno, which for a while issued, at odd intervals in the day and night, mimeographed "bulletins" carrying news from the world outside); neither is there any logical sense of where one is. One is standing on a highway in the middle of a vast hostile desert looking at an eighty-foot sign which blinks "STARDUST" or "CAESAR'S PALACE." Yes, but what does that explain? This geographical implausibility reinforces the sense that what happens there has no connection with "real" life; Nevada cities like Reno and Carson are ranch towns, Western towns, places behind which there is some historical imperative. But Las Vegas seems to exist only in the eye of beholder. All of which makes it an extraordinary and interesting place, but an odd one in which to want to wear a candlelight satin Priscilla of Boston wedding dress with Chantilly lace insets, tapered sleeves and a detachable modified train. And yet the Las Vegas wedding business seems to appeal to precisely that impulse. "Sincere and Dignified Since 1954," one wedding chapel advertises.

18 www.JAAPA.com Volume 27 • Number 2 • February 2014 CME S easonal affective disorder (SAD) is a subtype of bipolar disorder or major depressive disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of major depression that occur in a seasonal pattern.1 Predominantly developing in the late fall and winter, SAD also may appear in the spring and summer and is characterized by cyclic onset and cyclic remission of major depressive episodes.1,2 SAD symptoms are predictable and can be expected in the same seasonal pattern in consecutive years; symptoms resolve when light exposure increases.2 SAD is thought to be related to natural seasonal variations in light levels; treatment therefore traditionally has involved light therapy, although recent investigations have explored other options, including antidepressant therapy and CBT. Although SAD is common, it often goes unnoticed in the primary care setting.

Brice Family – Systems Paper

Brice Family – Systems Paper

MFCC 561

Brice Family

This paper is about the Brice family and how the first and second therapy sessions went. I will talk about what systems approach to therapy was used for this family’s difficulties, and I will also include how Napier and Whitaker conceptualized the family’s struggles. I will talk about what specific interventions they used to support their systemic understanding of this family. I will also describe how this differs from an individual understanding, and

First Session

The Brice family consist of five members. The mother Carolyn and angry mother, the father David a VIP lawyer, they also have a teenage daughter Claudia and enraged teenager, Laura is the youngest who is six-years old and younger son Don who is 11 and is the pacemaker. The family was referred to seek therapy by a psychiatrist who Claudia had been seen for her own personal problems. As her sessions progressed she felt that her whole family would benefit from joining her in therapy sessions. The entire family was included in the first session and it was a challenge for the therapist to get a clear picture of the family dynamics and the work that the individuals needed through this process. When Don the youngest son did not show up to the session with the family, Whitaker began to question the family’s commitment to the therapeutic process. According to Whitaker (1978, p. 6), “to start the process with one fifth of the family absent would be unfair to Don and I think unfair to you. He’s part of the family, and we need him here if the family as a whole is going to change.”

Students may suggestion one 5 point item of their choosing, but will need to obtain prior approval of this item from their tutor before completing the task.

How to Write a Summary Business Plan

A business plan doesn't have to be all encompassing, especially when you're trying to generate buzz. Here are the elements you really need.

 When writing a business plan, it's easy to get lost in the details. You want to demonstrate how you've studied the ins and outs of the marketplace and have crunched every conceivable number. But, really, writing a 100+ page business plan is not the best use of your energy.

The shorter you can make your summary business plan, the better. You want to focus on just a few key elements of your business that will generate the most excitement among those reading it -- without requiring them to invest a weekend in doing so. You can always pass along a more detailed plan to those interested later. 'One of the most common mistakes is for people to get bogged down in details,' says Mark Herschberg, a veteran entrepreneur and instructor at MIT. 'You don't need to describe every feature, or have detailed product designs. If your investors have detailed questions, they'll ask for more information.'

How to Write a Summary Business Plan: A Few Don'ts

With that in mind, here are some suggestions for things to leave OUT of your summary business plan:

• Excessive market research: 'You need to do a tight analysis of your product or service and the competitors. But you should be able to summarize it into one page max.'
• An overwritten product description: 'You need to spend no more than a paragraph on this.'
• Detailed finances: 'Bottom line - How much money do you have?  How much does it take to run the business?  How much will you earn (hopefully)?'

How to Write a Summary Business Plan: The Essential Pieces

Turning to what you DO want to focus on, consider the following tips:

1. Description: Kick off your plan with a one-page description of your business. Give a brief history of the business and its ownership structure by focusing on:

• Who you are
• What you do
• Where you are

2. Vision Statement: Write a concise one- or two-paragraph vision statement, which gives your answer to the question: 'What do we want this company to become over the next five to 10 years?'
3. Mission Statement: Lay the groundwork for your 'brand promise' in a one or two paragraph description of what your company will be to its customers.
4. Values: Provide a list of three to five core principles upon which you will build the business and stick to no matter what.
5. Goals: Make a list of three to five long-term goals that translate your company's vision into specific, measurable, attainable, relevant and time-specific objectives.
6. Market research: Take the next two to three pages to briefly answer the following questions:

• What do you know about your industry?
• What do you know about your competition?
• Who is your target customer and what do you know about them (i.e. demographics, buying patterns)?

6(a). Market differentiation: Take the next page to detail what makes your product or service unique in the market by answering questions like:

• What makes you different from your competition that actually matters to your target customer?
• What is your unique value proposition?
• What is your big bold brand promise?

6(b).

Marketing message: Based on the answers you outline above, take the next half page to explain the message you plan to communicate to your target market.

6(c). Marketing mix: Use the next page or so to detail the methods you will use to deliver that message.

6(d). Measurement: Follow the previous two sections with another half-page describing how you will measure the effectiveness of each of those delivery methods and, based on the results, adjust your plan accordingly.

7. Sales: Take the next full page to summarize your sales plan by answering these questions:

• What is your overall sales process?
• What are the specific steps in your process?

               - How are leads generated?
               - How are they researched/qualified?
               - How do you get in front of your customer?
               - How do you close the sale?

• How will you achieve the optimal sales cycle?

8. Operations plan: Now, take one to two pages to answer the following questions:

• How will you produce the product and/or deliver the service?
• What are the logistics?
• What business process will you employ?
• What facility, equipment, and other resource needs are involved?
• How will you assure and measure quality and customer satisfaction?
• Who are the key players?
• What are their backgrounds and qualifications?
• What are their specific roles?
• How will the business be organized (org. chart)?

9. Personnel Plan: Use one page to describe your 'people' plan by answering questions like:

• What personnel are needed now to accomplish current goals?
• How will the number of people needed change with the growth of the business?

10. Financial Plan: As noted earlier, keep the details about your financials brief, using the same narrative style you have been using throughout the plan. Then, use a footnote to alert readers that more detailed financial schedules and assumptions will exist in a separate document. To keep focused, consider telling your story by providing the following information:

• Start-up costs, if applicable
• Revenue projections with detailed assumptions
• Three- to five-year cash-flow projections
• Three- to five-year balance sheet projections
• Sources and uses of funds if you are raising capital

11. Executive Summary: Save the beginning for the end by taking one to two pages to write a concise synopsis of the entire plan. 

If you have followed these guidelines, the narrative portion of your plan should be 10 to 15 pages, with perhaps another eight to 15 pages of attachments and schedules related to the additional details of the marketing and financial sections. Halkin also recommends that you put together a detailed strategic plan that establishes the strategies, steps, accountability and timelines for achieving the one-year goals of the business.
