Week Four Final Project Milestone

Question one
a) Structure of the company
The business that I shall create shall be a limited liability company that offers customized software development services. A limited liability company offers several benefits to the owner making it a favorable business structure. A limited liability company exists as a separate legal entity. As such, the owner cannot be held responsible for any liabilities, debts, and any court decisions made against the business. The owner’s assets, investments and other properties cannot be used to recover debts of the company unless under special circumstances, such as a personal guarantee of a business debt, mixing personal funds with company funds, when the company violates state laws, or fails to pay taxes to the state (Legalzoom, n.d).
A limited liability company offers an owner taxation benefits. The owner pays taxes at the individual level on the individual returns. As such, all income, gains, losses, deductions are directly passed to the owner and the tax is filed based on individual rates of tax. In effect, it avoids double taxation that occurs when the business is taxed as an entity and the owner’s income from the business entity taxed again.
Another benefit of a limited liability company is that it is much easier to pass the business from one generation to the next. Sole proprietorships and partnerships are significantly harder to transfer ownership interests to other third parties when compared to limited liability companies (Legalzoom, n.d). A limited liability company structure would make it easy for me to transfer the business to the next family generation later on.
Limited liability companies offer other benefits such as ease of raising capital, which can be achieved by the sale of membership interests. Limited liability companies enjoy greater credibility and legitimacy when dealing with banks, other companies, etc. There are no restrictions in terms of ownerships, that is, the number of members.

b) Economic conditions of the market
The software development industry is a unique industry. Software developing companies specialize in different types of products and services customized for the clients. For example, some specialize in developing business software, others specialize in CRM software development, open source software, security and systems management software. Each company offers products that are different from those offered by companies in the same industry. Companies in the software industry offer products that are differentiated and unique from each other. As such, the software development industry can said to be an oligopoly.
Very few of the companies within the industry offer similar products and this offers them control over the market. Each of the companies within an oligopolistic market produces for a significant portion of the market and any changes in prices or product characteristics is noticeable and attracts counter actions by competitors (Ohio State University, n.d). There is intense competition between rivals and companies need to monitor the actions of other rivals and have counter-measures in order to retain market share.
Oligopolistic markets are characterized by certain barriers to entry such as economies of scale enjoyed by a few firms, high requirements for capital, control over specialized inputs, etc. However, these barriers may not apply to the software development industry because there may be no specialized inputs required

Critical Essay on a Case Study using the Circles of change Model

Two: Joan’s family

A mother is a single parent with two children, Joan is 10 years old and her brother Jey is 4 years old. Concerns about this family were first raised by the school when the children were having very poor school attendance. Despite several attempts by the school staff to encourage the children to come to school, their attendance at school continued to be very irregular. When the children did manage to attend school it was noted by their teachers that the children appeared neglected because of their unkept appearance and seldom had any food for lunch. Jey’s teacher also noted that Jey was very withdrawn when he did attend school.The mother has been called in by the school a number of times but never turns up for the meetings.

The child and family liaison officer is asked to do a home visit and on his/her initial visit to the family learns that Joan has recently left a violent relationship. Her mode of coping with the separation and trauma of the violence inflicted upon her is to use alcohol in ever-increasing amounts. She is finding it increasingly difficult to provide basic care and get the children to school. Her 10-year-old daughter (Jessica) is staying up late and is acting as a companion for Joan. Jessica tells you she is finding it very difficult to get up for school and get her brother and her ready so most of the time they just don’t go. Jessica also tells you she is worried about her mother as she is scared that her father may come back and hurt her again.

CASE STUDY-Using the Circles of Change Model (COCR

Circles of change model is: If the notion of social construction or historical constitution is to be fully understood then it is important that we think about how something can be a social construction. The best way to do that is to engage in critical reflection. The model of critical reflection to be used in this course is the Circles of Change Model Revisited (Macfarlane, Cartmel & Casley 2013).

Application: Gastrointestinal Tract: Disorders of Motility

Jamie is a 3-month-old female who presents with her mother for evaluation of “throwing up.” Mom reports that Jamie has been throwing up pretty much all the time since she was born. Jamie does not seem to be sick. In fact, she drinks her formula vigorously and often acts hungry. Jamie has normal soft brown bowel movements every day and, overall, seems like a happy and contented baby. She smiles readily and does not cry often. Other than the fact that she often throws up after drinking a bottle, she seems to be a very healthy, happy infant. A more precise history suggests that Jamie does not exactly throw up—she does not heave or act unwell—but rather it just seems that almost every time she drinks a bottle she regurgitates a milky substance. Mom thought that she might be allergic to her formula and switched her to a hypoallergenic formula. It didn’t appear to help at all, and now Mom is very concerned.

Cases like these are not uncommon. The mother was concerned and thinking her daughter may have an allergy; she changed to a different formula. However, sometimes babies have immature GI tracts that can lead to physiology reflux as they adapt to normal life outside the uterus. Parents often do not consider this possibility, prompting them to change formulas rather than seeking medical care. As in the case study above, GI alterations can often be difficult to identify because many cause similar symptoms. This same issue also arises with adults—adults may present with symptoms that have various potential causes. When evaluating patients, it is important for the advanced practice nurse to know the types of questions he or she needs to ask to obtain the appropriate information for diagnosis. For this reason, you must have an understanding of common GI disorders such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcer disease (PUD), and gastritis.

To prepare:

Review this week’s media presentation on the gastrointestinal system.
Review Chapter 33 in the Huether and McCance text. Identify the normal pathophysiology of gastric acid stimulation and production.
Review Chapter 35 in the Huether and McCance text. Consider the pathophysiology of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), peptic ulcer disease (PUD), and gastritis. Think about how these disorders are similar and different.
Select a patient factor different from the one you selected in this week’s Discussion: genetics, gender, ethnicity, age, or behavior. Consider how the factor you selected might impact the pathophysiology of GERD, PUD, and gastritis. Reflect on how you would diagnose and prescribe treatment of these disorders for a patient based on this factor.
Review the “Mind Maps—Dementia, Endocarditis, and Gastro-oesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD)” media in the Week 2 Learning Resources. Use the examples in the media as a guide to construct a mind map for gastritis. Consider the epidemiology and clinical presentation of gastritis.

To complete:

Write a 3-page paper that addresses the following:

Describe the normal pathophysiology of gastric acid stimulation and production. Explain the changes that occur to gastric acid stimulation and production with GERD, PUD, and gastritis disorders.
Explain how the factor you selected might impact the pathophysiology of GERD, PUD, and gastritis. Describe how you would diagnose and prescribe treatment of these disorders for a patient based on the factor you selected.
Construct a mind map for gastritis. Include the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and clinical presentation, as well as the diagnosis and treatment you explained in your paper.

Length: Word limits:
Part A: 300 words
Part B: 500 – 600 words maximum
Two choices for Part B
Submission:

See details below for each Part.
One of the most important aspects of any professional portfolio is the ongoing development and monitoring of professional learning goals and needs. These goals are developed by:

1. Assessing the shortfall (learning goals) between where you are now and where you want to be as soon as possible in your new graduate nurse (NGN) transition year. This will become evident through exploration of particular competencies, skills or values as they are presented in nursing literature and through your personal and/or clinical reflections;

2. Prioritising and listing your goals and needs clearly;

3. Determining the learning resources, activities and/or strategies needed to meet your goals and needs;

4. Identifying possible evidence of achievement .
These 4 steps are relevant to Part A and B but the goals are different 92325 Professionalism in Context
2

PART A: –

TASK
Even though there are many areas of practice for which learning goals could be identified, those chosen below reflect the objective and content of this subject and are framed by the transition needs of the NEW GRADUATE NURSE (NGN).
For each of the following topics the group is to identify at least one short-term professional learning goal or need relevant to the transition year and discuss why you believe this to be important in your transition year. All of the areas below must be covered. Ensure your identified goals or needs are supported by reflections on recent clinical activities, subject readings or resources, and class discussion as noted in the 4 steps above:



– The nurse as manager

The identification and explanation of the learning goals should be supported by reflection on recent clinical or personal experience, subject readings, subject resources, lectures, and class discussions.
It is important that you evaluate your experiences, strengths and knowledge. Ask yourself “What does this show me about my understanding of the role of the NGN and the transition experience? What does it show me about my potential as a leader, educator, employee or manager”?
Identification of resources, activities and strategies that you could use to meet these learning and professional goals.
Evidence of accomplishment – how might you know that you have achieved your goal?
After you have completed this stage of the assessment the deficits you have identified can be addressed before or during your early new graduate year.
Part B: 500 words
– Consider your career long-term and think about where you would like to be in about five (5) years.
– Identify one (1) long term goal that you can realistically aspire to; one that could provide a focus for your early career development.
– Discuss why this goal has meaning and how it will motivate you. This discussion should be, as in Part A, supported by reflection on recent clinical or personal experience, subject readings, lectures, and class or online discussions, including standards and competencies.
– Describe how you will make progress towards this goal over the early stage of your career – what resources, activities and strategies you will use

Regulatory, Legal, Ethical, and Accreditation Issues in Research

As highlighted in Chapter 9 of your course text, three research methods are available (descriptive, analytic, and evaluative). Discuss these methods and give one example of how each would be used when conducting research using homeless individuals as subjects. Analyze regulatory, accreditation, ethical, and legal issues and challenges related to each research method.
Your initial contribution should be 250 to 300 words in length. Your research and claims must be supported by a minimum of two scholarly sources beyond your course text. Use proper APA formatting for in-text citations and references
