Through this process it should provide automatic evidence for the rigor of external evaluation of the partners outlined above. “the core principles of good assessment and quality assurance ……… underpinning both effective learning and the demonstration of competence” ( p xiii Foreword Rob Wye – Chief Executive Learning and Skills Improvement Service). Effective internal verification is an on-going process. It allows good practice to be shared, and can help identify problems at an early stage. Internal Quality Assurance upholds the credibility of any assessment or qualification the organisation delivers.
Hall v. Hilbun Betty Ford Rasmussen College Author Note This paper is being submitted on May 14, 2014, for Ann Nevers M230 Medical Law and Ethics Course. Hall v. Hilbun As a healthcare professional it is our duty to provide your patient with the best possible care. Standard of care means that the professional must exercise the type of care that a reasonable person would use in a similar circumstance (Fremgen, 2012, p.39). In the case Hall v. Hilbun, you are able to see the 4 Ds of negligence and how it can impact a patient and how it can be prevented. Dr. Glyn Hilbun, a general surgeon, examined patient Terry Hall who was complaining of abdominal pain.
What is meant by an integrative project management process and why is this so important? What are the pitfalls if such an approach is not taken? An integrative project management process is meant to coordinate a project plan’s development, execution and to control changes (Marchewka, 2012). It is the combination of all the process and activities involved in identifying, describing, merging, fitting together and coordinating the many processes in project management. This is important because it helps the project to be completed successfully by making sure all the processes are integrated and so that performance is maximized throughout the entire cycle of the project.
Activity 7 Process Controls Why is it necessary to have controls in place and what sorts of controls might be used to ensure that work processes are stable and product / service quality is constant? It is necessary to have process controls in place to guard against, if not eliminate error, fraud, rework, product quality and other risks. Process Control methods can be applied to any process. When designing and implementing processes controls, the organisation should clearly define what needs to be monitored and how best to monitor those processes. High quality outputs should display minimal variation with maximum capacity, and should align with the operational plans and goals of the organisation to have optimal effectiveness.
Below you will find detailed information that describes how we will manage each of these concerns. Project Schedule Accuracy Our project development structure depends on the details contained within the Project Schedule which is why we need to assure that the schedule is as accurate as possible at all times, that there are control measurements in place to monitor and manage changes to the schedule and that our project activities, processes, and phases are defined within the schedule and have an estimated time frame for completion as accurate as possible. As we all know projects are susceptible to confront changes which make it difficult sometime for Project Managers to estimate or predict an exact time frame for a particular activity or task. Also, we know how this can be of difficulty especially when we have activities that are dependent upon another in order to be executed. Each of them has their own dependencies and
This is very important because it sets a tone that there are rules in place and no exceptions will be tolerated. Another positive observation that I see with your organization is the use of risk assessment. The fact that you are looking at your organization from an external and internal assessment, is a great start to making sure that you are in compliance if you go public. You will need and want to be able to look at all the risk factors that are present and can happen. You would want to make sure that you have guidelines set up for you to manage this risk as they come.
The Code of Ethics was developed, revised, and adopted by the American Society of Radiologic Technologists and the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists in July of 1998 (Patient Care in Imaging Technology Seventh Edition, 2010, p 8). Also stated in the previous cited text, these documents represent the application of moral principles and moral values to the practice of the profession and are considered to be the minimum acceptable standards of conduct. The Code of Ethics is the first part of the Standards of Ethics and guides the Radiologic Technologists or Student to a professional direction. 2 As stated in the first paragraph of this paper, when looking at professionalism, one must look at their own personal values. That’s exactly how the Codes of Ethics were developed.
This is regardless of age, sex, sexuality, disability, race, religion or any other difference. The legislation should have an impact on the way organizations provide and organize services, and on the way practitioners approach their practice. It is important to recognize however that whilst legislation is important, as it does protect people. It cannot change people's attitudes. This means that good practice should ensure that practitioners are constantly able to evaluate what they do, and they should receive appropriate support and training in this area.
Following these guidelines is showing that we are providing the best care possible. If you are doing activities with service user you should always do risk assessments making sure that the service user is aware of any risks also. 2.1 - Potential conflicts or dilemma’s
