Cobargo Go Karts have been trading for over 10 years and operates in a small regional town in NSW. There are very few attractions and activities for the local community, but one thing is certainly popular, it is the Cobargo Go Karts. They operate both 125cc and 250cc Go Karts in an open track which is basically a converted former paddock. The track might best be described as made from bitumen (the same type of surface used on roads). There is evidence of lots of bumps and repairs of the surface.

There is full time counter staff of between 1 to 3 persons, and 8-10 persons who supervise and control the running of the go kart races, depending on the time and day of the week. Most of the track supervisors who manage races are young teenagers themselves and receive very little (sometimes no) induction training. There are no Operating or Safety Procedures or policies in place, and while the go karts are regularly serviced (to remain functional) very little else is attended too, especially the track and maintenance of the piles of rubber tyres used as barriers on the edge of the track.

The track is especially popular on weekends and the local high school even takes students to the track once a week on a Tuesday as part of sport. The operators of the track recently spent over $30,000 on an electronic device system, which times, and displays the results of each race on a large LED display board. This adds to the competitive nature of participants and most users try to either beat the ‘best time’ of the track for the week or beat they’re our ‘personal best-time).

Late last Saturday afternoon, during one of the events, Mary O’Connor, a girl aged 15 years suffered a terrible injury. Mary had very long hair which was of a length which reached half-way down her back. While she was wearing a helmet (supplied to each rider), but her hair was not secured sufficiently within the helmet. During one of the races, her hair became loose from under the helmet and flowed freely out the back for at least one full lap of the course. Then, there was a pile up of five go karts and Mary’s go kart was caught amongst it. Her long hair somehow got caught in the motor mechanisms of one of the Go Karts and as a result, large portions of Mary’s hair was ripped from her head and severe damage, requiring surgery occurred.

Mary was rushed to hospital and hospitalized for over a week, suffering damage to her scalp which include permanent scaring. Moreover, she was traumatized over the incident and is requiring ongoing psychological counselling.

Mary’s parents are considering suing the owners and operators of the Cobargo Go Kart track for one-million dollars, for pain, loss, and suffering, including medical expenses and have come to you for advice.

On closer review of the operation of the go kart track, it was found that approval to operate as a Go Kart track had never been granted Council Approval by Cobargo Local Council. Moreover, this is not the first instance where users of the track have been injured, especially from collisions and where drivers have run off the track and heavily hit the barrier walls. Although no records of injury or incidents have been kept, it has been suggested by users of the go kart track that they know of at least six other incidents resulting in injury and hospitalization.

Question: Regarding a possible claim for negligence, advise Mary’s parents of her legal position to seek remedy. Fully explain each element of a claim for negligence relevant in this case.  

Answer should be approximately 800-900 words. Use of the IRAC system of case analysis is Must

As part of a long-term study of individuals 65 years of age or older, sociologists and physicians at the Wentworth Medical Center in upstate New York investigated the relationship between geographic location, gender and depression. A sample of 60 individuals, all in reasonably good health, was selected; 20 individuals were residents of Florida, 20 were residents of New York, and 20 were residents of North Carolina. Each of the individuals sampled was given a standardized test to measure depression. The data collected follow; higher test scores indicate higher levels of depression.

........

h) Is there any significant difference of the mean of depression value due to geographic location? Use a 0.05 level of significance.

i) Give point estimates for the proportion of individuals according to their gender.

Jessica is a 13 yr old student who lives with her parents and younger brother Jonathon in a middle-class neighborhood. Jessica has had diabetes type 1 since the age of 7, which has been well controlled by morning and evening injections of NPH insulin, diet and exercise. Recently, she has been staying up later in the evenings studying and is also the pitcher on her school softball team, which is playing in the semi-finals. Her schedule has contributed to a change in eating and sleeping patterns.

Situation:

Jessica developed a cough, nasal congestion and a low-grade fever 3 days ago but told her parents she was well enough to go to school and softball practice. Today she felt worse so her mother called their pediatrician and brought her in to the office. The physician, Dr. Jones, noted that Jessica’s pulse and respiratory rate were elevated and her breath smelled fruity. A blood glucose level with the clinic glucometer showed an elevated blood sugar. Dr. Jones referred the family to the emergency room.

The emergency room diagnostic findings were as follows:

Questions

• Discuss your impression of Jessica’s situation. (Short and sweet -what's happening?)

• What data indicates that Jessica’s lungs are attempting to compensate for her present condition?

• After Jessica has received 2 L of intravenous fluids and her blood glucose level decreases to 240 mg/dL, the doctor prescribes IVF with 5% dextrose as the insulin is being titrated. Are you comfortable implementing this order? Why or why not? Give your rationale with reference.

• What are your teaching priorities for Jessica and her parents prior to discharge?

Mountain Company manufactures Hiking shoes and walking shoes. The projected incomefrom the two products is: Hiking shoes Walking shoes Sales $ 900,000 $1,500,000 Less: Variable costs (540,000) (600,000) Contribution margin 360,000 900,000 Less: Direct fixed expenses (400,000) (440,000) 2 Segment margin (40,000) 460,000 Less: Common fixed costs (allocated) (100,000) (150,000) Net income (loss) $ (140,000) $ 310,000 After studying the latest market evaluates, project manager is considering recommending that the president drop the Hiking shoe line. If the line is dropped, however, the saleof walking shoes will drop by 5%. In addition, there is a personal complication for the project manager. Mountain is locatedin a rural area where unemployment is over 12%. If the Hiking shoe division is shutdown, there will be layoffs, including the manager of the division. Manager of the division and project manager have been friends since high school. Their families get together atleast once a month. Manager of the division's wife is principal of the local elementary school,a job she loves. Required a. Explain a project manager's ethical obligations in this matter b. Should Mountain keep or drop the Hiking shoe line? Support your answer with appropriate calculations c. Marketing department has come back to the project manager with an analysisthat shows if advertising were increased by $50,000, then Hiking shoes sales would go up by5% and walking shoes by 3%. Should advertising be increased? Again, prove withyour supporting calculations d. If the Hiking shoe line is shut down, Mountain will have excess capacity. In carrying out her analyses, the project manager has been able to come up with only one viable alternative. The company could use part of the capacity to make canvas slippers.Estimated sales revenue from the slippers would be $300,000, and variable costs would be$170,000. Direct fixed expenses would be reduced to $100,000, and allocated fixed expenses wouldbe $50,000. While this option would not use all the available capacity, it would reduce the number of layoffs. Should the project manager recommend that this option be carried out?

Part 1 – Calculate and use descriptive statistics to compare hourly wages for each of the education levels. Be sure to include the mean, standard deviation and margin of error with 95% confidence for each of the 3 levels (9 calculations). These calculations range in value from 3-4 points each for a total of 33 points. Note: See page 293 for the margin of error formula.

Part 2 – Construct and interpret 95% confidence intervals for the mean hourly wage at each education level. There should be an upper and lower number for each of the 3 levels. The end result should be 6 numbers which are valued at 3 points each for a total of 18 points.

You are expected to use Excel functions for the majority of your calculations. 10 points are allocated to the use of Excel. I will check within the cells to find/confirm your formulas and summation. An additional 10 points are allocated to showing your work (calculations). If you use Excel you receive the combined amount (20 points). If you perform the calculations by hand and show your work on paper you will receive only 10 points. Use Excel! It is a great tool that will serve you well in your future endeavors. The case study is valued at a total of 100 points.

    You are on duty in the OPD when BV is a 7-year old schooler who went for doctor’s consult because of severely swollen tonsils. She was accompanied by her mother. Condition started 3 days prior to consult, becoming more progressive until she can hardly swallow. She also started having low grade fever the day before but became high grade in the morning of consult. Her mother said this problem is frequently occurring since she started going to school like almost every 3 to 4 months. She usually does not miss school unless she has fever like what happened the past days.

            Upon assessment, BV is a little bit restless and occasionally grimaces when she swallows. She remarks that mere swallowing of her saliva gives her pain. Though all aspects of her vital signs are bordering on maximum normal, her temperature registered at 39.4 C. Inspection of her throat shows erythema with exudates on both lateral walls.

            After completing history and assessment, the doctor did a throat swab then gave instructions on the following orders:

           Cephalexin (Keflex) 500 mg every 6 hours for 7 days.

           Betadine gargle 3 times a day.

           Paracetamol 500 mg every 6 hours for temperature 38.5 C and above

          They were told to come back after a week for follow-up. The doctor mentioned the need for referral to a throat specialist for a possible scheduling of her surgery. Upon hearing this, BV verbalized her concern to her mother about a coming Quiz Bee Contest where she is a contestant and her possible absence if she will undergo surgery. She is now more apprehensive than when she came in.

Questions

1. Give 5 nursing diagnoses applicable to BV based on her condition and stage of development and suggest applicable 3 nursing interventions for each diagnosis to address these problems. Risk problems may be included

35-43. A room of researchers are debating what variables predict attitudes towards scientists.

Researcher 1 says, "In a comparison of individuals, older people will rate scientists higher than younger people."

Researcher 2 says, "In a comparison of individuals, those with higher education will rate scientists higher than those with less education."

The following is a real regression model created using the 2016 ANES. The dependent variable, feelings towards scientists, ranges from 0-100. Party ID is coded 0=Democrat, 1=Independent, 2=Republican. Female is a dummy variable, coded 0=male and 1=female. Education is coded 0=high school or less, 1=some college, 2=college degree, and 3=graduate degree. Age is coded 0=18-29, 1=30-49, 2=50-64, 3=65+.

35. What does the coefficient for age mean? (Explain in one sentence)

36-37. Is Researcher 1's hypothesis right? How do you know? (note: to get the point, you must explain your answer.)

38. What does the coefficient for education mean? (Explain in one sentence)

39-40. Is Researcher 2's hypothesis right? How do you know?

41. What would be the predicted rating of scientists for an 25 year old, high school educated, Democrat male? Show your work.

42. What would be the predicted rating of scientists for an 25 year old, college educated, Republican male? Show your work.

43. R-squared for this model is .063. What does this mean? Explain in one sentence.
