 you will assess how the general public’s perception of healthcare quality is influenced by the mass media.
Locate an article that reports on the quality of healthcare services. The article must be sourced from the mass media and not from an academic or healthcare journal. The purpose of this assignment is to review information reported to the general public in a news source that does not exclusively cover healthcare issues. Weekly magazines, such as Time, Newsweek, US News and World Report, Forbes, Money, and Consumer Reports, and newspapers, such as the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times, would be appropriate choices. The article may give various examples of good or bad quality instead of covering just one episode of care. Your selected article must be a comprehensive review or assessment of some aspect of healthcare services. Summarize the article. Be certain to indicate the basis for the report, that is, whether it is the result of academic research, an independent investigation, or something else.
Answer the following questions.
Summarize what conditions, processes, or events are noted as good quality or poor quality healthcare in the article. What is your own assessment of these conditions, processes, or events? Explain.
Does the article assign responsibility to persons or processes for the problems or achievements it reports? Does it provide sufficient evidence for assigning responsibility? Explain your answers.

Assess the suggestions for healthcare quality improvement in the article.
Explain your reaction to this article as a consumer of healthcare services. In answering this question, note how the article uses language and any persuasive techniques.
Explain your reaction to this article as a provider of healthcare services. Why is this reaction the same as or different from your reaction as a consumer?
Is the article fair in its reporting and assessing healthcare quality? Why or why not?

1. The “Master of Business Administration-CL” is the grading rubric for this assignment, and the assignment must be completed strictly according to the rubric.
2. The “assessment 2” document contains the materials for the target company of this assignment, and the assignment must be completed based on these materials.
3. The “investment-appraisal-for-tech-innovations-ltd+%282%29” is a table example. I need you to create a table for this assignment following the format of this example.
Therefore, this assignment requires two submissions:
1. **PPT**: The PPT must include the formulas, processes, and results needed for the calculations. It must be completed strictly according to the grading rubric.
2. **Excel**: The Excel file needs to be completed based on the example I uploaded. The calculation processes (Fx functions) must be retained. Do not provide just the final result.
If this assignment can be completed excellently within the specified time, I will give you four more assignments with the same requirements.

 Using your textbook and the video, briefly describe the 3 dimensions: Emotional, physical, and social (minimum of 3 sentences each) 

 
Communication is a continuous process. Expressing your needs and solutions is better received when using “”I” messages instead of accusatory messages (which can cause a person to shut-down and not communicate).
Assertiveness, or assertion, is standing up for personal rights and expressing thoughts, feelings, and beliefs in direct, honest, and appropriate ways that do not violate another person’s rights.
Assertiveness involves the use of “I” messages, for example: “This is what I think.” “This is what I feel.” “This is how I see the situation.” These types of messages express “who the person is” and are said without dominating, humiliating, or degrading the other person.
“Assertiveness involves respect—not deference. Deference is acting in a subservient manner as though the other person is right or better simply because the other person is older, more powerful, experienced, knowledgeable, or is of a different sex or race. Deference is present when people express themselves in ways that are self-effacing, appeasing, or overly apologetic.”  With assertion, one must communicate respect for self and for others.
There are six basic types of assertive messages. With a specific person in mind, write your six assertive messages to her/him. 

I want statements help to clarify to both yourself and others what you really want. For example, “I want you to call when you are going to be late.”

I feel statements help express your feelings without attacking the other per- son. For example, “I feel embarrassed when you criticize my clothes in front of my friends.”

Mixed feelings statements name more than one feeling and explain where each is coming from. For example, “I enjoy going out and doing things with you, yet I feel it is unfair that you frequently do not bring enough money and ask me to pay for you.”

Empathic assertion presents some sensitive understanding about the other person and then expresses how you feel. For example, “I know you said that you are angry and do not want to talk about it. However, I feel we need to talk about it when you feel ready.”

Confrontive assertion is necessary when there are contradictions such as differences between what a person says and what she or he does. For example, “I know you said you would teach the newer students some of the beginning information as part of your internship, yet you consistently put them off or do not show up for appointments.

 I language assertion is useful for expressing difficult negative feelings. For example, “When you cancel a weekend event with me because you say you are busy working and then I find out you went out with someone else, I feel rejected and humiliated. I need for you to be honest with me about why you do things or it could damage our friendship.”

Risk Register ExerciseThis week’s exercise will be to create a Risk Register for your selected project. Additional instructions are in the Word template. You must use the template provided.You will complete the attached Risk Register in attached template. A risk needs to be identified for each of your six (6) Key Deliverables (this would be listed under the Category column). This needs to be a thorough, well thought out risk register which provides detailed thought and consideration. An example of the Risk Register is available in Exhibit 11.9 on page 370 of the textbook.The following is a description of what should go under each column.Risk Description: Identify the Risk associated with the Deliverable.Impact: This is a narrative of potential impact if the risk should occur.Category: This will be the associated DeliverableProbability: This is a score of 1-5. A score of 1 would be if the probability of the risk occurring is very slight and a score of 5 is that is will almost likely occur.Impact: This is a score of 1-5. A score of 1 would be the impact would have little impact if the risk occurs and a score of 5 would be catastrophic impact if risk event occurs.
Score: This is the Probability multiplied by the Impact.Response Strategy/Solution: This should be a detailed plan on how to either limit the Probability of the risk event from occurring and/or a plan to reduce the Impact if it does occur. This must include direct correlation to the scores assigned to Probability/Impact. At least one of the risk response strategies from the textbook must be identified with course of action provided based on identified risk.
