Strategic planning can be laborious, but with the right mindset, it can be fun! Consider this example: Suppose an organization conducts a demographics study of its immediate surroundings and finds a population of over 30,000 immigrants from a certain country. It has no employees representative of the new cultural group. This is a weakness that can be converted into the strength of marketing to the cultural group. We need to continually think about our organization’s strengths and weaknesses.
You have read the following articles:
Clark, C. S., & Krentz, S. E. (2006). Avoiding the pitfalls of strategic planning. Healthcare Financial Management, 60(11), 63–6 7.
Grobmyer, J. E. (2002). Putting your financially based strategic plan into action. Trustee, 55(1), 30–3 2.
QUESTION:
Identify what you found to be the “strengths” you believe must be considered in developing a strategic plan. Identify three things from the articles that you think will be very important to consider when you participate in the discussion of a strategic plan within your organization in the future. Explain why you feel these “strengths” are important, giving support for your statements.

Ethical Dilemma Discussion Board due 8/28/16The following is a fictitious scenario:
Following an automobile accident, a 16-year-old boy who had recently escaped from a detention center was brought to the hospital emergency department by ambulance. The patient seemed to be alert and claimed to be suffering withdrawal symptoms from a drug habit. The patient claimed that he participated in a methadone treatment program. The physician administered 40 milligrams of methadone. The patient needed blood but refused it. After being observed in the emergency department for several hours, the patient was placed on a medical-surgical unit for observation. The following morning it was not possible to awaken him, and he was pronounced dead. It was discovered that he had never been an addict or in a methadone treatment program. Rather, the previous night he had been drinking beer and taking librium. He had not told this to hospital authorities. His estate sued the physician.
Consider the possible outcomes if death was the result of (1) overdose, (2) failure to administer blood, or (3) subdural hematoma. Consider the possible outcomes if the patient was not a minor.
How would you argue for the plaintiff? And what evidence would you present?How would you defend the defendant? And what are your defense options?If you were on the jury, what would your finding be, based on only the facts as presented above?If you find the defendant responsible, what damages would you award, and for what reasons?Without knowing many details of healthcare law and legal obligations (that’s why you are in this class), answer the above questions based on what you think is ethical.You are responsible for at least a 250 word post, plus an educated response, including thoughtful comments or questions, to two of your classmates. This discussion board response is worth 10 points of your grade.

After researching the psychology specialties listed below using the 
Occupational Outlook Handbook  at http://www.bls.gov/oco/   along with the
 American Psychological Association website at http://www.APA.org
Write a pair (2) of succinct and thorough paragraphs summarizing the job responsibilities, work locations, salaries, education, national licensing requirements and career outlook for each career represented as percentage of growth expected. 
After each of the 12 paragraph pairs, note whether that specialty in psychology would be of interest to you as a career option in the future and explain why or why not. (So far in class, I’ve expressed an interest in School Counseling and Child Psychology)
Once the 12 sets of paragraphs and interest or non-interest explanations are complete, compile them into a single APA formatted paper using the career titles as separating headings within the paper body. 
End the paper with two paragraphs comparing and contrasting the way in which information about the 12 careers is communicated in the Occupational Outlook Handbook vs. how it is communicated on the APA.org website (i.e. which format was the easiest to navigate and understand; which had the most “news you could use” [i.e. info useful to someone accessing it to make a career decision).
This paper must be in compliance with formatting rules of the American Psychological Association (APA) and include a title page, paper-body with source credits and a reference page attached to the end listing each source used. You may use additional internet sources to find the answers to the above as well.  
***Your paper should be at least 14 pages but not over 17 pages. This assignment requires you to write succinctly. You will need a title page, an abstract and a references list but these are not counted in the 14 page minimum content.*****

·         Response Guidelines
Respond to at least one of your peers. Your responses are expected to be substantive in nature and reference the assigned readings, as well as other theoretical, empirical, or professional literature to support your views and writings. Your peer response needs to be supported with at least two references.
Cost benefit analysis is an essential component of any program evaluation. Furthermore, ensuring that resources are allocated effectively will produce the greatest degree of change and is often essential in operating public services.   
       Considering a DBT-based intervention program for female athletes with eating disorders, making the case to stakeholders of the value of the program and benefits of the program are a necessary step. One of the most effective means of demonstrating the value and need of such a program is through the generation of awareness and education relating to eating disorders in sport. Ensuring that those involved with the development and training of these athletes can recruit and garner their support for such interventions. Moreover, aligning with parents, guardians and other athletes in advocating through psychoeducation can be a very productive way to gain support for the program.
In justifying the cost of the program to stakeholders, it can be a very valuable exercise to highlight the long-term cost implications of comorbidities associated with EDs. Yeo & Hughes (2011) discuss the benefit of early detection and treatment in ED, which highlights the need to be proactive in providing meaningful intervention strategies to combat and alleviate this particularly devastating disorder amd its long term health implications.

This article reviews evaluations of batterer programs using a variety of methodological designs, presents the results of a multi-site evaluation of batterer programs, and makes recommendations for improved batterer counseling programs.
After reading and carefully comparing the two assigned articles from this unit’s readings, respond to the following questions:

What differences do you note between efficacy research and program evaluation?

What are the key strengths of efficacy research? What are the key strengths of program evaluation?

Based on your review, what contribution does each of these types of research make to the counseling field?

What is a point from any of the articles that you can apply in your current work setting or your ideal counseling fieldwork setting?
