An area hospital adopted a commercial Electronic Health Record and plans on adopting and integrating a Personal Health Record (PHR). The hospital CEO drafts the following vision statement “By using the latest technology, our hospital will improve how our patients experiences and engagement in their healthcare. Instead of patients coming to us for help, we will be there wherever and whenever they need us, asking, “How can we help you?” This initiative will make healthcare easier to access and more convenient to use, improve patients’ health, and reduce the rising cost of healthcare in our area.”

You are the Chief Health Informatics Officer and the CEO is seeking your input. The CEO asks you to prepare a response to this vision statement.

In your response include discussion about pros (at least 3) and cons (at least 3) of using a PHR. Consider the shifting demographics and discuss whether you think older adults (65+ years old) are receptive to using PHRs and social media and why (support your stance with scholarly evidence). Explain how social media data could be beneficial in the context of patient care or population health (in about 1 paragraph). Describe how patient-centered care is facilitated by using the PHR (at least1 paragraph). Lets shift gears and now think about the impact remote home monitoring could have on older adults. Describe one pro and one con of using remote home monitoring with this population.

Same problem statement:

Weekly demand for DVD-Rs at a retailer is normally distributed with a mean of 1,000 boxes and a standard deviation of 150. Currently, the store places orders to the supplier, with a reorder point of 4,200 boxes. The order quantity to the supplier is fixed at 5,000 boxes. Replenishment lead time is 4 weeks, fixed order cost per order is $100, each box costs the retailer $10, and the inventory holding cost is 25% per year.

Under the current order quantity of 5,000 boxes and current reorder point of 4,200 boxes, what would be the order-up-to level S that the retailer should use as a baseline to calculate how much inventory to order when conducting a periodic review?

Sexual Harrassment

The question posted by Chourok C on the Yahoo! Answers web page begins this way: I just started this job 2 weeks ago as the CEO’s personal assistant. He is married 3x and is a very charismatic man, the CEO of a self-built multi-million empire. After a few days, he suddenly asked me if he could take me out to diner in London, if I book my flights and hotel he will afterwards reimburse me. [1] It was then, she relates, that she knew he wanted to sleep with her. In her words, she’s “totally not interested, but wants to preserve the job by not rejecting him.” So she made an excuse to get out of it and her post continues: “He then bothered me for hours about giving him good reasons why I couldn’t go. Then he said OK, next week we will go to Milan! He is a very powerful man, and I just get nervous of him. But I really do not want to lose my job. What should I do?” [2]

Case Study 2 Questions

4.The poster called Srta. Argentina answers, “He can’t fire you because you rejected his sexual advances. You can sue him if he does. And you can file a sexual harassment claim against him.” [4]

-Sketch the harassment case against the CEO.

6.Ethically, is there any difference between the boss threatening to fire her unless he gets what he wants and her threatening to turn him in unless she gets what she wants? If so, what is it? If not, why not?

BUSINESS ETHICS

MGMT HARDWARE, runs a chain of fourteen (14) building supplies stores located in four (4) Caribbean countries. The company caters for a wide set of products and services including, building materials, home delivery, household materials, retail sales, online ordering, drive through sales and order-online-pickup-in-store sales. The company has a centrally branded ecommerce website that caters to the needs of all four (4) countries and presents a consistent look and feel to all customers.

The locations within each country connect over a Metro-E wide area network (WAN) provided by FLOW, but there is no country-to-country connectivity. Mainly because the company grew by mergers and acquisitions, not all locations use the same Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software.

Each store also has an “offline” server that ensures the location can still sell and receive stock when the WAN goes down. Within a country, each store has a local Point-of-Sale (POS) but these all replicate back to a central hub in the main country office. Replication occurs once every 15 minutes, so the country head office is virtually up-to-date, in real time and can see, at a glance, transactions in each store.

As a new employee of MGMT HARDWARE, your manager wants you to produce some reports, related to stock and sales for an upcoming trade show that the purchasing team will be attending.

Congratulations, you have been promoted! You are now a manager in one of the departments of MGMT HARDWARE, and you get to choose your department.

Prior to the Metro-E, the company did not have a distributed POS, and sales reports from each site were manually combined in excel for analysis. In a similar way each location had its own telephone system. Now the company even allows VPN connectivity for the purchaser, when on business trips, to access reports and use her soft-phone. The Metro-E, VPN and internet access have changed everything.

1. From the perspective of your human resource and as an operational human resource manager:

1. 1. Suggest ONE advantage for the POS and ONE advantage for the phones.
   2. Request information from TWO other departments that could assist in your investigation. Please specify both the TYPE and specific CONTENTS of the report you are requesting (Unit 3 types of output)
2. From the perspective of your department and management level, discuss the implications of backup and recovery over Metro-E and into the cloud.
3. i. Suggest ONE advantage and ONE disadvantage.
4. Discuss ONE security consequence that could arise from VPN access to the company’s IT infrastructure.
