Christopher Coe’s TEDx talk titled, “Peeking prenatal” Christopher Coe’s TEDx talk titled, “Peeking prenatal” suggests that a mother’s health and wellness during pregnancy determines the health outcome of the baby as well. Coe believes that the prenatal period is the most important, and it can be used to forecast and improve the health and nutrition outcomes of the unborn child. In support of his argument, Coe mentions that the reason as to why babies have different characteristics after birth is since they are also differently programmed during the prenatal stage. Toddlers are born weighing different, express different temperament, and anxiety levels as well as are susceptible or fall ill to various infections differently. All these factors depend on the health, wellness, comfort and nutrition of the mother while she was pregnant with the toddler. The Barker hypothesis, as presented in the talk, suggests that a thrifty phenotype toddler is one who is born with evolved characteristics and features to thrive in the new environment with similar conditions and resources while in the womb. Hence, a baby born while underweight is…

whether autonomous decision necessarily reflects the wellbeing of a patient Aspects of patient care have frequently been encountered with ethical dilemmas, and physicians find themselves in a hard situation as they care for patients. The dilemmas can be resolved with a focus on maximizing benefits by respecting the decisions of the patient and minimizing suffering or harm to the patient. Patient autonomy is one of the ethical arguments that have been at the center of controversy for quite some time. Physicians are stuck in between making patient autonomy the ultimate ethical good in medicine and protecting patients from making their own decision that could be irrational. Patient autonomy is the state where the patient is in a position to control their personal choice without the influence of their health care provider. The concept makes room for patient education but does not allow the physician to make decisions for the patient. Therefore, this paper will focus on the ultimate positive direction to take and decide whether autonomous decision necessarily reflects the wellbeing of a patient. Patient autonomy and the influence of…
Budget and revenue Based on Krona’s budget, a wellness program will have a significant effect on the revenue of the hospital, and this is if the program is to include outpatient revenue, home health revenue, and pharmacy revenue. For outpatient revenue, the wellness program will increase the budgetary projections in revenue in outpatient care. Similarly, the program will also have an incremental projection effect on home health revenue and pharmacy revenue. This is based on the fact that wellness may have a strain on resources in outpatient, home care, and pharmacy departments. For the inpatient revenue to increase, there should be an increment in the services provided by the wellness program. The increased rates of readmission may affect the inpatient revenue by increasing it. On the other hand, the outpatient services can increase reimbursement in a wellness center as such services will be in demand. Last but not least, the management should consider a cut on the expenses to increase revenue (Zelman, 2015). Discussion two: Consultation to Krona The revenue cycle can influence the building of a new hospital, and…
Personal Assessment Using the Machiavelli IV Module After carrying out the personal assessment using the Machiavelli IV assessment module, a lot was reviled about my personality. The assessment graded me as a low-level Mach, which meant that I was one of the few people in the world who cared about the wellbeing of others. Being ranked, a Low-level Mach showed that most of the time, I consider other people before making a decision (Christie et al. 2014). Through the test results, it was evident that I trusted people quickly and that I was an honest person who cared about people’s feelings and that in anything I did, I had to consider the type of impact it will have on the other person. I believe everybody in the world is good, and it is only circumstances that lead to people misbehaving or mistreating one another. If everybody was given equal opportunities, there could be peace and order in society. Although the majority of people do not follow the morality rules in my case, the assessment indicated that I do things by…
How does ethics impact community work? Ethics guides social workers in their daily activities and helps them to judge whether their conducts are fair and justified. Ethics establishes the values and principles that social workers should base their behavior while attending to the community. Ethics promotes fairness in community work by guiding social workers to do the right thing. For instance, a therapist who follows the code of ethics in the hospital knows that every patient in the hospital has a right to treatment. Therefore will not discriminate patients due to their race or color. This way, there is fairness in public services. The code of ethics also promotes competency in community work. For instance, a therapist is expected to maintain patient confidentiality, making the patient comfortable, and this promotes treatment. Therefore, the code of ethics promotes justice, fairness, equality, and competency in community work. Ethical standards and how they impact the community Ethical standards that should be considered by social workers include informed consent, privacy and confidentiality, and commitment to clients. These standards ensure justice and fairness when providing…
The Affordable Care Act African Americans record the highest number of uninsured population as compared to the whites or other minorities; for instance, Black people without health insurance under the age of 65 years account for 6.1% of the total population in the US. Out of the total population in Brooklyn, New York, 34% of the African Americans do not have health insurance cover. This proportion is high, and health intervention measures are needed to curb the number. The cause of this number of the uninsured African-American population is traced to racial segregation, where medical care was not extended to the members of the community. The Medicaid program, which is under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), is a public medical policy administered by the states and Federal government that aims to improve the health status in the American community. Besides, the Affordable Care Act can improve the rates of uninsured African-Americans by extending medical covers to all states, strengthening insurance coverage through ACA marketplaces, seeking more resources by the Federal and State officials, and forming partnerships with community-based groups,…
