Critical Thinking Questions: (Marks 5)

Question 1: (1 Mark)
Suppose you are a member of a group asked to find ways to cut costs throughout your organization for the upcoming year. Sales have fallen sharply, and the company is in danger of going out of business. After gathering information, your group concludes that the company will save the most money by freezing pay for a year, despite a tradition of annual salary increases. How can you make sure this is a fair decision? How can you make sure that others in the organization will see it as a fair decision?

Question 2: Case Analysis
Care, a health consultancy company in Saudi Arabia, is studying the economic benefits of a program of preventative COVID-19 flu vaccinations. Care has to give advice to government for COVID-19 vaccination. If vaccinations are not introduced then the estimated cost to the government if flu strikes in the next year is SR.70m with probability 0.1, SR.100m with probability 0.3 and SR.150m with probability 0.6. It is estimated that such a program will cost SR.70m and that the probability of flu striking in the next year is 0.75.
One alternative open to the committee is to institute an "early-warning" monitoring scheme (costing SR.30m) which will enable it to detect an outbreak of flu early and hence institute a rush vaccination program (costing SR.100m because of the need to vaccinate quickly before the outbreak spreads).
    Question
• As a consultant of Care, Develop a decision tree for alternatives and make recommendation to Indian government that which alternative can maximize expected economic benefits?

Question 3: (1 Mark)
Decision support tools rely on objective, mathematical data. What part does ethics play in using decision support software?

Question 4: (1 Mark)
If you collect too much information for analyzing a decision, you can suffer from analysis paralysis, where you spend too much time thinking about a decision rather than making one. Recall a major financial decision you made recently, such as of a car or housing purchase or rental. Describe your process for making the decision. How could analysis paralysis have affected this process?

n Jacobson v. Massachusetts (1905), the United States Supreme Court upheld the right of states to enact compulsory vaccination laws—one of the most challenging constitutional dimensions of public health. It also provided the terms for what would eventually become a core question of public health ethics.

This case has become the precedent for many cases that have challenged vaccination laws. Both majority and dissenting opinions in numerous decisions have cited this case in reference to states’ authority to constrain individual behavior. These cases have involved issues ranging from fluoridation of municipal water supplies, to abortion, to the right to die. In Buck v. Bell (1927), the Supreme Court usedJacobson v. Massachusetts (1905) to uphold a forced-sterilization law using the reasoning that society must be protected from the burdens imposed by the offspring of “imbeciles.” Despite the troubling uses to which this decision has been put, public health law texts continue to cite the case as an example of the ways that public health practices must resolve the tensions between individual rights and the collective well-being.

Based on these Supreme Court decisions, respond to the following:

  • Do you believe health departments should be able to enter your house without a warrant from a judge?
  • Should health departments be able to isolate or quarantine you without a trial? Why or why not?

make a table of 13 mineral facts including sex and age with RDQand UL

RDA and UL for your demographic (age/sex) - and state what that is.

You can include other age/sex groups but for this assignment I require only one - yours (and remember to say what it is!).


On tests you will need to know RDAs and ULs for all groups - remember that you can refer to the tables inside the text if you have a hard copy or use the scanned RDA/UL tables.


There may not be RDAs or ULs on the tables for every mineral - be sure to check the textbook for all information!


type and storage

indicate if it is a major or trace mineral


include whether/where in the body excess is stored


symptoms of deficiency

summarize the effects on the body if you don't have enough


include the names of any specific diseases or syndromes


symptoms of toxicity

summarize the effects on the body if you get too much


indicate how toxicity could occur (hint - in most cases the risk is from over-supplementation not from food sources)


for some minerals this is rare and/or there is no known toxicity - if that's the case say so


food sources - food groups and specific foods that are good sources

For this written assignment, select one recent (within the past two years) evidence-based article from a peer reviewed nursing journal that describes a "best practice" in an area of nursing you are interested in. For example, if you would like to be a pediatric nurse, select an article that discusses a best practice in pediatric care.

Cite the article and provide a brief overview of how the results or findings were obtained. Then describe the "best practice." Conclude your discussion by explaining whether you thought the research findings supported the conclusions and the best practice.
