Outline the “true cost” of this food product. From the resources involved (energy, water, etc), production of the product, social implications of the production and use of product, what are the ingredients in bread and what are they derived from or where are they grown (in general). Also think about the distance the food and/or its components have to travel to get to your plate.   We pay a small portion of the true cost when we buy the food. This is in part because of subsidies in our agriculture system. How much you think the bread would cost if we had to pay the “true cost”.

Broad Overall Problems in the hospital:

Unnecessary Costs:

Unnecessary costs is an issue within the hospital for a couple different reasons. First, since the MAR was not kept where it should have been when the patients got medication, this could cause issues of not knowing whether a patient received medication already. Which could result in another dose, meaning more costs for the hospital. The hospital needs to strive to keep the costs of care as low as possible as well as cut out medically unnecessary things such as sending placentas to the pathology lab for testing. By making changes to “the way they’ve always done things,” it will be easier to make the hospital more revenue and more efficient.

Communication Errors:

Often times, nurses wouldn’t have the time to chart in the MAR when the medication was administered. This is an issue because it can cause disconnect when there may be a shift change, that could result in an additional dose of medication, causing the quality of care for the patient to decrease. While the nurses are not the only people within the hospital to have charting errors, ancillary services also had issues with charting. They would lose reports or not get the charts on time, which caused issues for the hospital as well as the physicians. The physicians wouldn’t be able to discharge the patients in a timely manner, which would result in less revenue for the hospital itself.

OB Department Against Change:

There was a lot of competition within Pensacola for new families. After the hospital understood what these patients wanted, a family centered birth experience, the hospital worked to change the way that they delivered their care to these patients. There were many positions in support of these new changes, however, nursing staff and nursing management, especially the OB supervisor were set against this. Instead, they wanted to keep practicing how they’ve been doing it within the OB department. There were many nurses that no longer work in the OB department because of this change.

Specific problems in the hospital:

The shift from prescribing antibiotics:

The shift from prescribing antibiotics in the recommended ways to use the local prescribing patterns. The shift in prescribing antibiotics was caused to cut the costs which resulted in saving $200.000 annually. Management should have considered their cost-cutting plans without ignoring patients’ safety, and outcomes. This problem caused in delaying patients from receiving their prescribed antibiotics for days. It is concerning because of the lack of quality was shown from the hospital in delivering their services focusing on cutting the costs and not considering about the patients’ conditions.

Not involving fathers in the birth process:

This problem showed a weak part of the hospital’s system in not making their system to be designed as patient-center care. Instead, the system was built based on rules that they had to follow. The system should have been built to be based on the customers’ needs and should have targeted their satisfaction. It is concerning because the healthcare delivery system should be delivered as patient centered.

Labor Delivery Recovery Postpartum implementation:

The hospital’s management implemented the LDRP concept too fast. The nursing management did not like the idea of the implementation. However, the hospital kept the process going which resulted in retainment and resignation over the staff. The LDRP caused unclear charging structure, and duplicated and missing charges. It is concerning because the hospital’s management did not take the necessary steps by evaluating the structure before implementing the concept.

Assignment:

Evaluating a Capital Expense Using the Payback Method

The Happy Healing Hospital CFO has just sent a memo to all departments requesting a list of any capital expenses along with the justification for each item requested. The decision bring the Release of Information copy service back to in house rather than outsourcing it. You have already completed the research for leasing verses purchasing the equipment to be used for the project. At this point, it is a matter of deciding which option would be best financially and writing the justification for your recommendations to present at the weekly department meeting. To Purchase

You estimate that to purchase there will be an initial investment of $34,000 for a printer/fax/copy machine and dedicated computer. The estimated income will be $55,000 over the next 5 years. Current staff will be used.

Complete the table below.

(Hint: Your “remaining balance will be carried over as the investment for the following year.)

To Lease

Your research shows that the same equipment will cost $3,000 per month to lease with no initial investment. However, there is a maintenance contract that will cost an additional $150 per month. Create a table to show these expenses.

Evaluation and Recommendation

Evaluate the two tables. Which do you feel would be the better option?

Write a brief justification for your recommendation using this information with a specific comparison between the two options.

def main():
phrase = input('Enter a phrase: ') # take a phrase from user
acronym = '' # initialize empty acronym
for word in phrase.split(): # for each word in phrase
acronym += word[0].upper() # add uppercase version of first letter to acronym
print('Acronym for ' + phrase + ' is ' + acronym) # print results

main()

The program should then open the input file, treat whatever is on each line as a phrase and make its acronym using the function you wrote. It should print the acronyms, one per line to the output file. Assume that the input file will be already present in your default Python folder. The output file will be expected to get saved to the same folder. See below for an example input file input.txt and its corresponding output file output.txt that the program should generate.
