According to this week’s reading, the Saudi Arabia Pharmaceuticals and Healthcare Report Q2 – 2017, one of the biggest weaknesses in the system is the reported lack of qualified professionals to meet current and future demand. In this discussion, summarize the plans initiated by the Ministry of Health (MOH) to meet current and future demand. In your initial response, be sure to include whether the MOH should recruit professionals from other countries or if they plan to educate internally.

There is a divide between the north and south when it relates to the health of populations in developing countries. The north consists of bigger nations such as the United States, China, and Britain. These countries are more developed. They also have more money which entails a better healthcare program. Countries in the south are still developing countries, such as India, Africa, and Guatemala. These countries struggle with healthcare so they have a higher rate of mortality at a lower age. People are living longer in developed countries because they are able to receive the needed healthcare. They are also provided with the proper medication and treatment because their country can financial afford it. Developing countries need to improve their health care systems. The webtext suggests that the developing countries should require low-cost preventative healthcare practices, keep health clinics open, and offer flour that is enriched with vitamins.

Week 7 Discussion 2

“Undercover Operations”  Please respond to the following:

· It is well known that undercover operations can be very dangerous for officers. Identify three (3) possible dangers that officers involved in undercover investigations might face. Next, suggest the mitigating actions that officers can take in order to reduce the dangers in question. Provide a rationale for your response.

· Imagine you are the director of a transit police department that is charged with securing both rail and bus services. Statistics show that you have major occurrences of robberies, juvenile violence, and illegal drug activities not only on the buses and trains operated by the transit authority, but also at the hubs where passengers migrate to board and transfer as they travel. Propose one (1) overall strategy in which you combine problem-oriented policing and investigation to tackle the identified issues. Provide a rationale for your response.

RE: Week 7 Discussion 2

Undercover operations

Undercover officers face various dangers the first being the risk of being exposed which would put the lives of the officers in danger. Additionally, another danger is that of getting caught up in the illegal business or worse yet get addicted to the same drugs they are trying to prevent from getting to the streets due to the stressful nature of the undercover job (Plowman, 2013). The danger of being shot by other officers is another issue that affects undercover officers (Perritano, 2015). In regards to being shot by other officers, it would be necessary to develop a code or sign language that only officers can understand to help to show that one is an undercover officer. Being granted leave to rest can reduce stress among these officers and enhance their performance addressing the danger of falling victim to drugs. Developing an effective strategy such as sharing of information through secure networks can help to ensure that their identities are not exposed (Plowman, 2013). A problem-oriented policing approach and investigation of the identified issue involves assessing the cause of juvenile violence, illegal drug activities and occurrence of robberies on trains and buses. These approaches can help to identify the problem as lack of surveillance and lack of officers in these hubs thus implementing a solution that involves stationing more officers in hubs where passengers migrate to board and the installation of surveillance systems by business and trains to monitor activities.

· Moral Development in School-Age Children

The readings in this unit expand upon the concepts related to school-age children, particularly in regard to moral development, with insights from the varied specializations within counseling.

Your text discusses moral development on pages 249–261 and provides some situations encountered by children in this age group that would create moral dilemmas within their lives. Based on this section of Chapter 7, develop a situation that would include a moral dilemma that is likely to be faced by an individual in early school age or middle childhood with whom you might be working in a counseling setting.

The moral dilemma can be fictional or nonfictional. In your post, describe how Kohlberg would describe the stage of moral development in the situation you have created. Additionally, discuss one other theorist or theory (learning theory, cognitive developmental theory, psychoanalytic theory, or object relations theory) and how the theorist or theory explains the stage of moral development in your situation.

According to these theorists, is the child at an age-appropriate stage? What factors would each theorist use to assess moral development in this situation?

Response Guidelines

Read the initial posts of your peers and respond substantively to at least one learner whose post resonates with you. Your response should be at least 100 words.

In your response, address the following:

· Is the moral dilemma appropriate for the age of the child?

· Has your fellow learner used Kohlberg theory appropriately?

· Do you agree with your peer that the child is or is not at an age-appropriate stage? Explain.

Critical Thinking Essay

When faced with a problem, what do you do to solve it? This assignment asks you to apply a six-step to problem solving process to a specific problem scenario. You will write a paper that presents a synthesis of your ideas about solving the problem using this systematic approach. As Voltaire said, “No problem can withstand the assault of sustained thinking.”

Scenario 1: You have worked at your company for eleven (11) years. You have returned to college to earn a Bachelor’s degree in order to increase your chances for a promotion. You are nearly finished with your degree, when a supervisor’s position in a competing company becomes available in another state. The start date is in two (2) weeks, during your final exam period for your courses. The position offers a $15,000 per year salary increase, a car allowance, and relocation expenses. Your former supervisor works for the company and is recommending you for the position based on your outstanding job performance; if you want the job, it’s yours. All of the other supervisors at this level in the company have Master’s degrees, so you know that you would be expected to earn your Bachelor’s degree and continue on to a Master’s degree. Your present company offers tuition reimbursement, but the new company does not.

 

Write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:
1. Define the problem in the scenario that you have chosen.
2. Analyze the problem in the scenario.
3. Generate options for solving the problem in the scenario.
4. Evaluate the options for solving the problem.
5. Decide on the best option for solving the problem.
6. Explain how you will implement the decision made and reflect on whether this option was the most effective.

The paper should follow guidelines for clear and organized writing:

  • Include an introductory paragraph and concluding paragraph.
  • Address main ideas in body paragraphs with a topic sentence and supporting sentences.
  • Adhere to standard rules of English grammar, punctuation, mechanics, and spelling.

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

  • Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA Style format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

Welcome to Week 3 of Social and Behavioral Aspects of Public Health!

Last week, we learned about the three core functions of public health and the ten essential services. We examined how these essential services work to address public health issues. We also identified and discussed the Social Determinants of Health (SDH) and their relationship with health disparities.

In this week, we will delve into the individual health behavior theories used to develop public health interventions that reduce and eliminate public health issues. We will start by exploring individual health behavior theories and how those theories, when applied, impact health outcomes. Some examples of individual health behavior theories are the Health Belief Model (HBM), the Transtheoretical Model (TTM), and the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB). We will examine the purposes, similarities, and differences of various theories. We will also explore which theories should be applied to selected public health issues and interventions as well as how it should be done.

Your Learning Objectives for the Week:

· Identify basic theories, concepts, and models from a range of social and behavioral disciplines that are used in public health research and practice.

· Apply evidence-based approaches in the development and evaluation of social and behavioral science interventions.

· Apply ethical principles to public health program planning, implementation, and evaluation.
