Course Project: Long-Term Care Facilities I

Choose two long-term care facilitiesone from nursing facilities, assisted living, or subacute care and another from adult day care, home health care, or hospice careon which you would want to base your research work. Research the South University Online Library and the Internet to read about your chosen long-term care facilities.

Assume you are responsible for the management and administration of the two facilities. You have to orient the newly appointed manager by providing an overview on managing long-term care. You also need to discuss the programs of the two facilities. From this perspective and based on your research about the facilities, prepare a Microsoft Word document including the following:

What are the various multidisciplinary departments (teams) included in your facilities?
Who comprise the target population being served by the various programs provided by your chosen facilities?
What are the major staffing and human resource issues faced by your chosen facilities?
What are the significant trends in long-term care likely to impact the operation of the various programs provided by your chosen facilities, and what is your plan of action to overcome them?
What are the various forms of cooperation and integration existing in your chosen facilities? Discuss the nature of management, financing, and quality issues related to integration and cooperation in the facilities?

What impact has home health care had on the quality of life for consumers?

Long-Term Care Facilities: Services, Successes, and Failures

Many services are available to help seniors stay in their homes. These services are increasing in popularity as more seniors are choosing community care over institutionalized care. Two main services that assist seniors in this area are adult day care and home health care.

Find out an adult day care and a home health care in your vicinity or using the Internet.

Based on the knowledge gained from your research, respond to one of the following questions:

Adult day care programs began more like a social model; however, over time, they have developed as a medical model. Do you agree or disagree? Why?
Adult day care is being described as gap filler between institutional and non-institutional care? Do you agree or disagree? Why?
What population comprises the largest group receiving care in adult day care programs? Why?
Do you think receiving patients with more medical problems has impacted adult day care services? Why? How has this effected staffing?
Which success factor has had the greatest impact on the cost-effectiveness of health care services? How?
What impact has home health care had on the quality of life for consumers? Provide examples to support your answer.
Is there a time when home health care and adult day care is no longer appropriate for a senior? What criteria are used to establish this?

Analyze the case in terms of your theory, typology, and victimological viewpoint.

For this assignment, you are one of the following victimologists: von Hentig, Mendelsohn, Schafer, Amir, or Wolfgang.

You are to assume their persona and analyze a crime event drawn from the news media through your particular victimological lens. Explain the theoretical perspective of your persona in detail – the main tenets of your theories, your research, and what it taught you about criminals and their victims (you will probably have to do some additional research beyond the textbook about your victimologist persona). Then learn all you can about the crime, the suspect, the victim, and the judicial outcome of the case if known. Post a minimum 750 word explanation of the event, the actions of the victim and suspect, and the overall circumstances, etc. Analyze the case in terms of your theory, typology, and victimological viewpoint. In other words, explain the event from the theoretical lens of the victimologist whose persona you are assuming. Justify why your assessment of the event is more valid than alternative views.

What happens if those very People effectively cease exercising that sovereignty via the ballot?

Write a 500-750-word essay that includes the following:

Is there a certain level of voting that is necessary to ensure our political system maintains its legitimacy (what your text calls system stability)? Explain.
We the People, not the individual states, comprise the original constituent power of our federal union. What happens if those very People effectively cease exercising that sovereignty via the ballot?
Your book notes that, in a representative republic such as ours, we all implicitly accept, and thereby legitimize, the results. Can popular sovereignty continue if the population stops voting to any significant degree? Explain.
There is no legal duty to vote in the United States. Given what you have written above, can you make the argument that there is an ethical duty to vote? Do free individual citizens owe each other at least that much in a representative republic? (comp. 2.4)

Include two or more scholarly resources.
