		<content:encoded><![CDATA[Professionally interact with fellow students or business managers to learn skills necessary for  entrepreneurial success.
Analyze risks inherent in owning a business.
<strong>Prompt:</strong>
In week 1 you conducted your first interview with a small-business owner/manager.  This week you will complete a second interview with the entrepreneur/manager and address the ongoing challenges the business has faced in the past, is currently facing, and will continue to face in the future.   Start your week by reviewing your interview write-up from last week.  The obvious next step, unless you did this last week, is to set up a date and time when you may conduct this second interview.  Next, as you did last week, create an interview outline to use. As this week’s focus is on “ongoing challenges,” build your interview outline around past, present, and future challenges the business has, is, and will face.  Feel free to modify this outline, but here is one way to start:
<ul>
 	<li>Areas of challenge to a small-business (there easily could be several more):</li>
 	<li>Human resources related (skills, retirement, turnover)</li>
 	<li>Related to competition (increased, unscrupulous, larger, e-commerce)</li>
 	<li>pricing related (international, out of state, or new competitor based)</li>
 	<li>Hindrances to growth (people, financing, competition)</li>
 	<li>Services related (delivery, market constraints, inventory)</li>
 	<li>Product related (product evolution, competitiveness or availability from manufacturer, or access issues)</li>
 	<li>Asset or Financing related</li>
 	<li>Inventory</li>
 	<li>Legal, regulatory, or license related</li>
</ul>
[sc name="blog-cta" ][/sc]

As you learned last week, the key to a good interview is preparation, using open-ended questions (as opposed to yes-no questions), and exercising good listening skills.  This course will be a challenge to your time management skills.  There is a lot to cover this week, including a discussion Forum and reading materials on small business challenges in the <em>Reading &amp; Resource </em>section.
<strong>Instructions:</strong>
As you did last week, write up your notes or transcribe your recordings into a narrative and present your findings and conclusions in a logical manner.  Your narrative should be a minimum of 5 pages.  One possible organization may be as follows:
<ul>
 	<li>Section 1 – Past and Present Challenges Faced by the Entrepreneur</li>
 	<li>Section 2 – Future Challenges that Could Affect the viability of the business</li>
 	<li>Section 3 – Your conclusions and insights regarding the challenges this company may face in the future.</li>
</ul>
Your paper should be in APA format. Finalize and submit your report by Sunday midnight.
<strong>Grading Rubric:</strong>
A rubric is provided here for your convenience that details how this assignment will be graded.  Please review it carefully prior to submitting your work.

Considering the facts that I have learned, I now see the necessity of paying close attention to providing employees with safe options for reporting any type of misconduct. In the future, I, as a leader, will make sure that my employees trust me and know that if something negative happens in the workplace, I will immediately and fairly address it. The same will be required from my managers. They will need to acquire specific conflict management skills and learn how to deal with uncomfortable conversations so that they can deal with any situation appropriately and promptly. As a result, strong management will be developed so that the staff feels safe and works hard.
<h2 id="week-6">Week 6</h2>
When it comes to cross-cultural conflicts, those various disagreements and disputes discussed above do not seem so complicated anymore. Indeed, cultural differences can usually make it much more challenging for two companies from different countries to make a business deal. What seems normal and common in one culture may be extremely offensive to another, and being unaware of such differences may lead to an unintentional conflict.

I did not have any experience in managing or being involved in cross-cultural business communication or conflict, and, to be honest, I am thankful for that. Although such situations are a valuable opportunity to develop unique skills and competencies, they are also stressful and require careful preparation. Therefore, if I ever become involved in communication between companies from different countries and cultures, I will make sure that our organization takes specific steps to avoid any conflict situation and approaches the negotiations with sensitivity and awareness. First, a careful analysis of other companies’ cultural features and characteristics will be performed with the main focus on its basic communication signs. It will be necessary to understand how they greet their colleagues and partners at business meetings, where they usually hold them, what they require to make a decision and how they are used to communicating, including the use of names or surnames and specific hand gestures. However, if the cross-cultural conflict does arise for one reason or another, I will know what to do, thanks to the lecture materials and additional readings. Since there are several conflict management models, it will be possible to find the most appropriate one.

Working with people from other cultures may also be complicated and lead to conflict if the parties have conscious or unconscious biases. Though I have never had cross-cultural business communication or conflict experience, I have been to other counties and talked to people from different cultures. Despite the fact that I accept any diversities, I was never completely free of biases, both negative and neutral, as most of them are inherent in the majority of persons through the media, movies, and other sources of information. As mentioned by Zychowicz (2021), there should be unconscious bias training that would make employees free from stereotypical thinking and make it easier and more comfortable for different cultures to communicate and accept each other. Now I realize the necessity of such training and will do my best to provide the workers with it in the future.

As the world’s largest beauty products company, L’Oréal SA creates cosmetics, perfume, and hair and skin care items. However, as the global economy continued down a fluctuating and uncertain path, the French company found itself with stagnating sales. According to company officials, one contributing factor was higher raw materials costs that have hit many companies, including L’Oréal, which uses oil in its products and packaging. However, weak consumer demand and currency fluctuations played a major role in the sales slowdown. In an effort to reduce its dependence on mature consumer markets such as Europe and the United States, L’Oréal’s strategy is to recruit millions of new consumers in emerging markets from Africa to Asia.
Sources: Based on C. Passariello, “Heiress Loses L’Oréal Family Fight,” Wall Street Journal, October 18, 2011, p. B8; C. Passariello and NoémieBisserbe, “Uncertainty Colors L’Oréal,” Wall Street Journal, August 31, 2011, p. B4; and C. Passariello, “Sales Stagnate at L’Oréal,” Wall Street Journal, July 13, 2011, p. B4.

b. How might strategic management be useful?

<strong>Part B</strong>

As a pioneer of Internet TV, Hulu is one of the most-watched online video properties in the United States. Hulu operates a Web site that features video from more than 225 content providers. Offerings include TV shows from ABC, Fox, and NBC as well as from cable channels and films from studios including Sony and MGM. Most of the content is streamed free eight days after its broadcast debut. Viewers can watch shows earlier through a premium subscription service called Hulu Plus. Hulu.com attracts some 26 million visitors a month. Hulu is owned by entertainment and broadcasting powerhouses, including NBC Universal, Comcast, News Corp., and Walt Disney Co., and by a private equity firm. However, it now faces a challenging environment in which consumers have a growing number of options on where and how to access content. Hulu’s owners had been exploring a sale of the online video venture but decided in late 2011 not to sell the company. Now they have to figure out what to do with it.
Sources: Based on S. Schechner, “Hulu Puts Owners in New Quandary,” Wall Street Journal, October 17, 2011, p. B1; S. Schechner, “Hulu’s Owners End Efforts to Sell Streaming-TV Website,” Wall Street Journal, October 14, 2011, p. B3; S. Schechner and J. E. Vascellaro, “Hulu Reworks Its Script As Digital Change Hits TV,” Wall Street Journal, January 27, 2011, pp. A1+; and A. Palazzo, “Hulu Says It Will Reach 1 Million Paid-User Goal in 3 Months,” Bloomberg BusinessWeek Online, July 6, 2011.
a. What do you think Hulu’s owners should do now?
b. What is it about this situation context that’s so challenging?
c. What type of resource(s) does Hulu have? Would you call it unique? Explain.

<strong>Part C</strong>
The questions in Part C refer to the material discussed in Lesson 3 of this course.
In Lesson 2 you discussed the industrial organization (I/O) and resource-based views (RBV) on competitive advantage. You now know that competition and competencies are both major organizational concerns. In Lesson 3 we take a closer look at how to conduct an external analysis of an organization’s specific and general environments.
To demonstrate your understanding of external analysis, respond to the following.
1. Describe an external analysis.
2. Assess the benefits and challenges of doing an external analysis.
3. Apply what you have learned in this lesson by reading the brief below and answer the questions that follow.
Digital technology has disrupted all types of industries—from financial services to recorded music. One industry that’s seen a significant impact is the publishing industry. E-book sales have skyrocketed, and one publisher went so far as to predict that e-books could account for as much as 40 percent of total revenue by the end of 2012. Reading those e-books requires a device and the competition in the e-book device industry is fierce.
Amazon fired the first volley when it introduced the Kindle in November 2007. As with any new product, customers had to get used to the new technology, but once they did, the Kindles were on fire! Two years later, retailer Barnes &amp; Noble introduced the Nook, a cheaper e-book device. Amazon responded by cutting the price of its cheapest Kindle. Three months later in January 2010, Apple introduced its iPad. Although it was a more expensive tablet, its functionality and options attracted a lot of attention and sales. In response, Barnes &amp; Noble cut the price of its Nook, and Amazon again cut the price of the Kindle.
By September 2011, Amazon dropped Kindle’s starting price to $79 and launched Kindle Fire. Then in November 2011, Barnes &amp; Noble joined the tablet battle with its $249 Nook Tablet. And these are just the top three competitors. Other industry competitors include the Sony Reader and Endless Ideas’ Be Book Neo. As the popularity of e-books continues to grow, the “reader wars” are likely to continue.
Sources: Based on J. A. Trachtenberg and M. Peers, “Barnes &amp; Noble Seeks Next Chapter,” Wall Street Journal, January 6, 2012, pp. A1+; J. Bosman and M. J. De La Merced, “Barnes &amp; Noble Considers Spinning Off Its Nook Unit,” IPO Offerings.com, January 5, 2012; M. Maxwell, “Barnes &amp; Noble’s Digital Strategy Gaining Traction,” Wall Street Journal, August 31, 2011, p. B3; J. A. Trachtenberg, S. Schechner, and G. Chon, “B&amp;N Vulnerable to Rivals: Amazon, Apple Loom as Bookseller’s Takeover Offer Dies,” Wall Street Journal Online, August 20, 2011; A. Flood, “Hardback Sales Plummeting in Age of the ebook,” The Guardian, [guardian.co.uk], August 12, 2011; and J. Bosman, “Publishing Gives Hints of Revival, Data Show,” New York Times Online, August 9, 2011.
a. What affects the level of rivalry? Porter listed eight conditions that contribute to intense rivalry among existing competitors. Using the eight conditions, assess the level of current rivalry in this industry.
b. Which of these eight conditions do you think are the most important to the level of current rivalry in this industry? Why?
c. As the industry matures, do you think the intensity of rivalry will change? Explain.
<strong>Part D</strong>
The questions in Part D refer to the material discussed in Lesson 4 of this course.
As you learned in Lesson 3, performing an external analysis can provide information to be used in planning, decision making, and strategy formulation. Organizations that conduct external analysis are most successful when they combine this knowledge with a solid understanding of their internal strengths and weaknesses.
To demonstrate your understanding of internal analysis, respond to the following.
<ol>
 	<li>Define and      present the characteristics of distinctive organizational capabilities.</li>
 	<li>Describe the      criteria involved in judging organizational strengths and weaknesses.</li>
 	<li>Apply what you      have learned in this lesson by reading the brief below and answer the      question that follows.</li>
</ol>
The clothing industry isn’t an easy one to compete and be successful in. However, VF Corporation has become one of the world’s largest, most profitable clothing conglomerates by doing many things well. One thing the CEO did was buy languishing fashion brands and turn them into winners. How? By using VF’s capabilities: state-of-the-art distribution, global buying power, and keen merchandising instincts. For instance, VF bought the North Face brand for a bargain price of $135 million, revamped its sourcing, distribution, and financial operations, and was able to nearly double sales over a five-year period. As one analyst said, “The North Face is a great example of what VF can do. For VF it was easy, and it’s not easy for everybody.”

Dodes, “VF Dresses Up Its Operations, Bucking Recession,” Wall Street Journal, March 30, 2009, p. B3; and M. V. Copeland, “Stitching Together an Apparel Powerhouse,” Business 2.0, April 2005, pp. 52–54.

<p>Nola Pender's Health Promotion Model (HPM) is a middle-range theory that "focuses on explaining health-promoting behaviors, using a wellness orientation" (Polit &amp; Beck, 2018, p. 126). Health promotion involves anything that helps to maintain or improve a person's health and well-being. This model defines health as a "positive dynamic state," not just the "absence of disease" (Petiprin, 2020, para. 1). The theory suggests that everyone has characteristics and experiences that are unique to them, which affect their actions in any given situation. These variables can be affected by nursing interventions. "Health-promoting behavior is the desired behavioral outcome, which makes it the end-point in the Health Promotion Model" (Petiprin, 2020, para. 2). The results are "improved health, enhanced functional ability, and better quality of life at all stages of development" (Petiprin, 2020, para. 2). I chose this model because promoting health is something I am passionate about. in my nursing practice, I do this every day while working with the elderly population and helping them manage their chronic conditions.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Obesity is becoming the most prevalent nutritional disease in developing countries, with the primary causes being poor nutrition, stress, and inactivity. It is a chronic disease, and a known risk factor for high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes and can diminish quality of life. A study conducted by&nbsp;Khodaveisi&nbsp;et al. investigated the effect of Pender's HPM on improving the nutritional behaviors of overweight and obese women in Hamadan, Iran. The reported prevalence of overweight and obese women was "33.7% and 15.8%, respectively" (Khodaveisi&nbsp;et al., 2017, para. 7).&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>One hundred eight women from 18 to 60 years old and a body mass index of 25 or higher were randomly selected and assigned to either the experimental or the control group. The data was gathered from both groups using questionnaires before the study and then again two months later. The experimental group received an HPM-based intervention (Khodaveisi&nbsp;et al., 2017).&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Before the intervention, neither the experimental group nor the control group showed healthy nutritional behaviors. After the intervention, there were significant differences in the experimental group in "nutritional behavior, perceived benefits, perceived self-efficacy, commitment to action, interpersonal and situational influences, behavior-related affect, and perceived barriers" (Khodaveisi&nbsp;et al., 2017, para. 3). The researchers demonstrated that unhealthy nutritional behaviors could be replaced with appropriate ones by promoting health knowledge.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>One limitation noted in this study was the inability to observe nutritional behaviors directly; therefore, information collected using questionnaires was subjective and could result in an inaccurate representation of some of the variables (Khodaveisi&nbsp;et al., 2017). In my opinion, this limitation does not take away from the study's usefulness because one of our primary roles as nurses is to educate, and any step in a positive direction in overcoming the obesity problem needs to be celebrated.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>Hello Classmate,<br>You have made an outstanding post in response to this discussion. It is correct to note that Nola Pender's Health Promotion Model (HPM) is a theory that uses wellness orientation to exploit the behaviors that promote health. Promoting health focuses on making changes to lower the risk of acquiring a chronic disease in clinical practice. As a result, the well-being of an individual is enhanced. I believe that this theory must have instilled in you a feeling of satisfaction since you help the elderly manage their chronic diseases. Consequently, the theory must have enlightened you more about some of the techniques you can apply to make them even better after reducing the risk of acquiring morbidities and chronic diseases. Since some chronic diseases such as cancer and obesity are becoming prevalent in different nations, this theory must have excellent points that can be applied to lower the risk of acquiring these illnesses.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Your focus on the prevalence of obesity shows clear exploitation of the researchers' demonstration that unhealthy eating habits can be replaced with good ones. The development of obesity and other related illnesses could be reduced, causing an overall health promotion. I like how you have discussed the inability to directly observe behaviors as one of the theory's limitations as it can cause inaccurate variables representation (Masoud Khodaveisi, 2017). To summarize, you have made a great post, and I concur with you that even though the theoretical concept has a limitation, it is still very useful.</p>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>In the hot summer months of 2004, Troy Victorino and friends Robert Cannon, Jerome Hunter, and Michael Salas were ille-gally squatting in a Deltona, Florida, home and using it as a "party house." The owners, who were spending the summer in Maine, asked their granddaughter, Erin Belanger, to check up on the property. When she saw what was going on, she called the police in order to get the squatters removed from the premises. Victorino (who was in jail on an unrelated matter at the time his friends were evicted) left behind an Xbox game system and some clothes, and Belanger took possession of these items. Once he was released from jail on bond, Victorino, feeling disrespected because the police had been called and his stuff confiscated, threatened Belanger and slashed the tires on her car. He warned her that unless she returned the items, he was going to come back and beat her with a baseball bat while she was sleeping. It was not an idle threat. On August 6, 2004, in what is now known either as the Xbox murders or the Deltona massacre, Victorino, Cannon, Hunter, and Salas armed themselves with aluminum bats, put on all-black clothing, covered their faces with scarves, kicked in the front door, and attacked Belanger and her roommates as they slept. All six victims, including Erin Belanger, were beaten and stabbed beyond recognition. All six died. The perpetrators of the deadly attack left a trail of clues that resulted in their quick arrest and indictment on murder charges. It was a pretty sad bunch; they all seemed to have lived troubled lives. Michael Salas was abused even before his birth by his mother, who used drugs during her pregnancy, traded food stamps for cocaine, and left her three sons alone for long periods during the winter. Child protective services found cigarette burns on the boys' bodies. Salas's father died of AIDS when Salas was 9. Hunter is a man with clinical depression and mental illness whose parents were both committed to mental hospitals at the time of the massacre. As early as age 3, Hunter conversed with his identical twin brother, Jeremy, who died from pneumonia at 6 months old. But it was Victorino, a six foot six, 300-pound career criminal, who most outraged the public. He had spent 8 of the last 11 years before the killings serving prison sentences for a variety of crimes, including auto theft, battery, arson, burglary, and theft. In 1996, he beat a man so severely that doctors needed 15 titanium plates to rebuild the victim's face. Not surprisingly, Victorino also had a long history of physical and sexual abuse that began at the time he was 2 years old. He suffered from neurological impairment that resulted in poor impulse control and the inability to manage his violent temper. &nbsp;</p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Xbox killers followed a classic developmental path: early abuse and problems in childhood leading to a long and sustained criminal career. These killers did not age out of crime but persisted and escalated their criminal involvement until it culminated in unspeakable tragedy. Despite their personal problems, on August 2, 2006, Victorino and Hunter were sentenced to death by lethal injection, and Cannon and Salas to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Victorino and Hunter remain on death row at the Florida State Prison in Starke because the average length of incarceration of a Florida inmate prior to execution is more than 10 years. The governor has been asked to review the sentence in light of the troubled histories of Victorino and Hunter.</p>

<p>Writing Assignment</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Addressing the following questions:  Would it be ethical to execute someone who has had a horrendous upbringing? Anti-death penalty groups have asked him to consider commuting the sentences to life in prison in consideration of their childhood traumas. He has asked for your opinion on the matter. Do you believe that developmental factors should mitigate their culpability in the case? Conversely, would it be fair to execute someone who commits a similar crime just because they had a relatively problem-free childhood?</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph {"align":"center"} -->
<p class="has-text-align-center"><strong>Answer And Explanation </strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>I believe that developmental factors should be taken into consideration when determining culpability. It is not fair to judge someone who has had a difficult upbringing in the same way as someone who has not. The defendants in this case have clearly had a number of issues that have contributed to their criminal behaviour. This does not excuse their actions, but it does mitigate their culpability to some extent.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p> I do not believe that it would be fair to execute someone who commits a similar crime just because they had a relatively problem-free childhood. While a person's upbringing may be a factor in their criminal behavior, it is also possible that the person could have made different choices regardless of their circumstances. In the case of the Xbox killers, it is clear that their upbringing was a factor in their criminal behavior. However, it is also clear that they made a choice to commit murder, and that choice should be considered when determining their sentence.</p>

<p>Multi-Stressed Family Assessment (Length: a minimum of 1,750 words): This assignment is designed to provide you with an opportunity to assess and conceptualize a multistressed family. For this assignment, you are asked to view one of the following films: “When a Man Loves a Woman,” “The Fighter,” or “Walk the Line.” You will select one film for the focus of this paper. The characters in your selected film will be your clients. You will provide a thorough description of this family, including a detailed assessment and treatment plan and how you engaged each member in the process. You will assess this family’s functioning based on what you learn about them in the film. Your “work” with this family does not need to exactly follow the events that transpire in the plot of the movie. The film should be used as a starting point for case conceptualization, to get a sense of your clients and their needs. Based on the reading assigned in class, additional outside readings you may have selected and lecture material you will consider this family from various angles and demonstrate critical use of the material to inform your conceptualization of the family. Explicitly demonstrate how you are applying course readings and concepts, and properly reference readings on which you draw (at least SCHOLARLY 5 citations). You will write an assessment and treatment plan for this family covering the following areas: Part I: Case Description a. Provide a thorough description of each family member, including observational data (appearance, affect, behavior) as well as relevant social, cultural, educational and vocational information. You might also include relevant mental health and medical history. Also include referral source and why they are coming to see you. Part II: Assessment a. Problem Identification: Describe the family’s definition of or story about the difficulty with the “identified patient’s” substance abuse. Consider what each member of the family might see as the identified problem. b. What is your assessment of this family? Be sure to consider systems theory. Discuss any assessment tools you might use. Comment on how you observe the family members to relate to one another based on their interactions in the film. c. You must discuss the following family dynamics: Norms and beliefs/values that are influencing the current issue, roles, communication, problem solving, boundaries/alliances/coalitions, how will you accomplish engagement. d. Summarize what you know of early family history or developmental events relevant to the current situation. e. What else do you need to know? How and from whom could this information be gathered? f. Identify and discuss strengths you observe in the family. Push yourself to find strengths in each family member, especially those members who might elicit negative reactions from you. g. Consider cultural competence in working with this family. Discuss any culturally relevant factors, including issues of oppression and discrimination that might influence their current situation. h. Assess environmental factors that influence the family’s functioning and development. Consider resources and risk factors for this family at various systems levels. i. Consider any ethical issues you might encounter. P Part III: Treatment Plan a. What issues or problems need to be addressed? How would you prioritize the problems? b. What do you see as some preliminary goals? Identify short-term and longer-term goals. Will key players agree on these goals? c. What are some measurable objectives you can identify to inform you and the family that you are moving towards these goals? In other words, what will the family do and what will the counselor do to work to meet these goals? d. What do you identify as potential or actual barriers to your work together? How might you address these? You are not required to write an introduction and conclusion for this assignment. It can read more like a case note using the items provided in BOLD below as HEADERS and SUB HEADERS (under assessment). If you refer to yourself in the assignment, refer to yourself as “the counselor” in order to use a professional tone.</p>

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>On February 7, 2018, a nurse employed at the Flinn Corporation noticed an increase in the number of employees who were sick. She was concerned that there may be a Salmonella outbreak at the company. She has interviewed each of the employees at the corporation. She has taken samples and sent them out for testing but has not received the results. She asks you, the local epidemiologist, to investigate to see if an outbreak exists and if so what the source of the outbreak is. You follow the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's steps in outbreak investigation (https://www.cdc.gov/csels/dsepd/ss1978/lesson6/section1.html) and report your findings to her. Please note that we will not address all outbreak investigation steps in this assignment. Use the attached Excel worksheet to produce graphs and statistics to answer the questions below. Submit your report as a Word doc and include figures and tables you generate. The report should be easy to follow and interpret and should be written as an academic paper in proper APA formatting. Please see the grading rubric for additional details on the paper, such as the length for the body of the paper. 1. Look at the Excel Spreadsheet attached. There are 3 worksheets (see tabs on bottom of page - "Nurse's Interview", "Epi Curve", "Retrospective Cohort Study"). The first sheet "Nurse's Interview" has a line list of employees who work at Flinn Corporation. This sheet represents the data the nurse has collected from those employees in an interview. Do you think that an outbreak exists? Why would you recommend to further investigate? Discuss your reasoning. (Step 2: Establish outbreak) 2. Research salmonellosis using academic sources. Are the symptoms that the ill employees exhibit consistent with salmonellosis? Provide a brief summary (1-2 paragraphs) of the disease and discuss the chain of infection for this disease. Use in-text citations in proper APA format and include all sources in your reference section. (Step 3: Verify diagnosis) 3. Identify the percentage of ill employees with each symptom. For example, 1 out of 12 ill employees had blood in stool (Bs) = 8.3%. (Step 4: Working case definition) 4. Conduct descriptive epidemiology (Step 6). Describe the characteristics of the ill employees to determine trends and risk factors. a. Person - Calculate the percentage of ill employees that are male/female. Determine the mean age of the ill employees. b. Place - What percentage of ill employees ate at the cafeteria? What percentage of well employees ate at the cafeteria? c. Time - Using the data collected in the Nurse's Interview, fill in the column "# of cases" in the "Epi Curve" worksheet. Use 0 if there are no cases. As you fill in the data, the graph will automatically generate. Choose an appropriate title for the graph. Copy and paste graph into your report. What type of epidemic curve is it ? (Hint: read https://www.cdc.gov/csels/dsepd/ss1978/lesson6/section2.html#step6) 5. Based on the information you have gathered, you have developed an hypothesis that there is a food being served at the cafeteria that is causing the employees to become ill. You need to further test this hypothesis by conducting a retrospective cohort study (Step 8). Use the worksheet "Retrospective Cohort Study" to calculate attack rates and risk ratios. The first food item Baked Chicken is done for you. You can also consult https://www.cdc.gov/csels/dsepd/ss1978/lesson6/section2.html#step8 for help. Report the Risk ratio for each food item. Based on risk ratios, which is food is most likely to be the source of the illness? Explain. 6. Based on your findings, what would you recommend for prevention and control measures? Apply food safety principles from academic sources to discuss further prevention of Salmonella outbreaks in the cafeteria. (Step 11) Use in-text citations and include sources in reference section. 7. Include a properly formatted reference section in APA format that includes at least 3 academic sources (popular sources should not be used).</p>

<p>This is a writing assignment; it will be an essay on film analysis for my family class. Some good themes to give suggestions is the ABCX model, the traditional vs benchmark family, Structural functionalism, Feminists family theory, Family development theory, Family systems theory, The human ecological theory, Conflict theory, and the Social exchange theory. You can use one of these theories for but you don't have to. It is everything we went over in my family class so far. It can be from any movie and my teacher does use turnitin.com</p>
