Case: Harvert v. Unity Medical Ctr., 428N.W.257, Minn. Ct. App,. 1988.
https://casetext.com/case/harvet-v-unity-medical-center-incLinks to an external site.
Courts have ruled that an employee handbook IS an employment contract and must be followed by both employee and employer.  Look closely at employment contracts and the employee handbook; “The trial court granted Unity Hospital’s motion for summary judgment (immediate dismissal) on all claims, holding Unity’s employee handbook was sufficiently definite to form an employment contract, but Unity did not breach that contract by terminating appellant for theft. ”
Describe this case in 100+ words. 
Address the following questions in 200+ words.
How do you feel about stealing food from the cafeteria and did the hospital overreact?   What would you have done if you were the supervisor?  What is your suggestion on what  should the hospital policy be?  Remember, when you set policy, you affect all future actions.

Social workers work in a complicated mix of personal needs and big-picture systems, where rules and decisions shape how they help people. Understanding these rules is super important for social workers for a few key reasons.
First off, rules set up how social workers do their job. Everything from who can get help to what kinds of help are available is decided by these rules. For example, a social worker helping kids in tough situations has to follow laws and guidelines to make sure those kids stay safe. Rules also decide what resources are out there, how to get them, and what you need to do to get help. Understanding policy helps social workers advocate for their clients more effectively and navigate the system to meet clients’ needs (Popple et al., 2019).
There’s a split in social work between dealing with people one-on-one (like counseling) and looking at bigger societal problems (like making new policies). These two sides of the job are connected. Big policies affect how individual people are helped. So, social workers need to be good at both sides to make sure people get what they need and to push for better rules that treat everyone fairly.
Social work isn’t just about fixing problems for today; it’s also about fixing the big issues causing those problems. Social workers see firsthand how rules impact real life. By studying and speaking up about rules, we can help change things for the better. For example, a social worker helping homeless folks needs to know not just how to give support, but also how laws about housing and healthcare affect their clients. By engaging in policy analysis and advocacy, social workers can help shape the development and reform of policies to better serve their clients (Walden University Library, n.d.).
In short, as social workers, we need to know the rules inside out to do our job well and to push for changes that make life better for the folks we help. By understanding both the personal and big-picture sides of their work, social workers can make a real difference in a job that’s all about making things better for everyone.

Explain why social workers should understand the role policy plays in determining the environment in which practitioner and client interact.
It is the social worker’s responsibility to put policy into action or to rally against it if the policy has adverse results for the client in their environment. Social workers must be well-versed in existing and newly forming policies to help their clients succeed. As stated by Renata A. Hedrington Jones in the Video, policy is your “roadmap” (Walden University, n.d., :58). As Joe N. Savage, Jr. pointed out, policy is constantly changing, making it imperative for social workers to keep up on the most recent requirements (Walden University n.d.). Social workers should not just practice policy but effect change with “policy advocacy,” an idea proposed by Bruce Jannson that policy should assist immobilized factions in increasing their resources to thrive (Popple and Leighninger, 2019).
Describe the dichotomy between micro and macro practice. 
Social work can be thought of as having dual targets: the individual and the environment (Popple and Leighninger, 2019). People will need help with individual struggles, known as micro practice. However, they are also dealing with environmental issues such as racism, availability of resources, employment opportunities, and availability of healthcare, known as macro practice. The social worker will be dealing with both personal and societal problems consecutively. The two are separate but deeply connected. Peggy Pittman-Munke put forward the idea that the problems uncovered in micropractice should be presented to the powers that be in order to facilitate policy change (Popple and Leighninger, 2019).
Explain why social work is identified as a policy-based profession. Provide examples. 
Policy drives most of what social workers do in their practice. Professionals have increasingly become more likely to work for organizations rather than themselves. This subjects their practice to government regulation. Even private practices have a certain amount of responsibility to government oversight. Social work is a policy-based profession in which, although the client receives services from the social worker, neither of them defines the problem or pays for the services (Popple and Leighninger, 2019). The federal or state government sets those parameters with policy. For example, a client is referred by the court system for anger management. The client has not chosen to have services. The problem is defined as anger before the client ever meets the social worker, and the treatment goals are based on the guidelines established by the court.

  Create a PowerPoint on evolution. Your presentation must be at least ten minutes in length if presented (just time yourself and read through your slides and information slowly; typically you will spend at least one minute per slide to give your viewer the time to see the images and read the information, so aim for at least 10 slides after your title slide). You must use only peer-reviewed or published textbook resources for your information. 
(A) Make a 10 minute long presentation covering an extinct species. Go to https://naturalhistory2.si.edu/vt3/NMNH/DT/scene-01.html?startscene=0&startactions=lookat(-81.33,0.48,83.5,0,0); and tour the National Museum of Natural History’s David H. Koch Hall of Fossils: Deep Time exhibit. Find a fossil that catches your eye and research that species. In your presentation include:
The common and binomial taxonomic name of your species
The time period they lived during (both year period and the name of the geological age)
The environment they inhabited (are they aquatic or terrestrial? do they inhabit fresh or saltwater? do they inhabit desert or wetlands?)
Their ecological role (are they a predator or prey? do they live in large groups or alone? are they parasitic?)
The purported reason for their extinction (did they go extinct in a massive extinction? did they get out competed by other species?)

To calculate the percent error between your experimental atmospheric pressure calculation (PexpPexp​) and the accepted atmospheric pressure reported by the National Weather Service (NWS) (PNWSPNWS​), you can use the following formula for percent error:
Percent Error=∣Pexp−PNWSPNWS∣×100%Percent Error=∣∣​PNWS​Pexp​−PNWS​​∣∣​×100%
To apply this formula, you need to have both the experimental atmospheric pressure (PexpPexp​) and the accepted atmospheric pressure reported by the NWS (PNWSPNWS​) in Pascals.
Given that you’ve provided only the experimental atmospheric pressure calculation without the accepted atmospheric pressure reported by the NWS, we’re missing one of the values required to compute the percent error. Once you have both values, you can plug them into the formula to calculate the percent error.
