Abnormal Behavior in Children – 1 – Why is it more difficult to identify abnormal behavior among children than among adults?

Discussion 5 – Answer the following in 100 – 150 words

Abnormal Behavior in Children – 3 – Absolutely – development plays a large role making diagnosing abnormal behavior in children difficult. There are a lot of behaviors that children engage in that are perfectly normal – IF they are a certain age. But, those same behaviors at a later stage of development would be abnormal. Can you think of any of these behaviors? What is normal as a child? But not normal as a teen or adult?

Discussion 6 – Answer the following in 100 – 150 words

Abnormal Behavior in Children – 5 – Do you think another reason it is harder to tell abnormal behavior in children from abnormal behavior in adults could be because of the situation the child is in? Abused or neglected children may show what many would consider abnormal behavior but it is actually their way of defending or protecting themselves. Should we consider the situation the child is living in before deciding if the behavior is abnormal? Where can the line be drawn between normal and abnormal behavior with children in these types of situations?

Growing Older -With the rise of dementia, delirium, and Alzheimer’s, do you believe that growing older is synonymous with mental decline? Why or why not?

Discussion 8 – Answer the following in 100 – 150 words

I ran across this recently – it’s a nursing home for those with severe dementia. It’s set up just like a regular city, but staffed with their staff. So, rather than putting them in rooms in a building that feels institutional – they live as they did more. But, with protections.

How will demographics and health reform likely impact the organization as well as the broader community in the next 5 years?

Current and Future Considerations for Healthcare Delivery
Imagine that you are an administrator in a health services organization and the CEO of your organization asks you to assess and report on developments that are likely to affect the organizations success. What will you discover as you investigate changes in your community and the broader health care landscape?
In preparation for this Assignment review your completed Week 3 Assignment including any feedback you received from your Instructor. Selectoneorganization from that Assignment on which to focus for this Assignment (i.e. imagine that this organization is the one in which you work).
Use the Learning Resources provided in this week as well as previous weeks and locate additional sources through the Walden Library and credible websites to conduct your research. Use the following questions to guide your investigation:
What are the prevalent health concerns in this community?
What are the key issues related to cost quality and access that affect the organization and the people this organization serves?
Which organizations in this area are business competitors and/or which organizations use highly effective practices or strategies that this organization may learn from or adopt?
How will demographics and health reform likely impact the organization as well as the broader community in the next 5 years?
Next review the information on business writing included in the Learning Resources. Consider what the central point of your memo should be. For instance is there a critical challenge the organization is likely to encounter? Does the information you have gathered suggest the need for a particular course of action or a new business direction? If so use this memo to inform and influence the CEO. If not share the findings of your research with the assumption that the CEO will use this information as a launching point for future discussions.
The Assignment
Write a business memo in which you address:
Prevalent health concerns in the community
Issues related to cost quality and access that affect the organization and the people it serves
Organizations in the community that are business competitors and/or from which you can learn highly effective practices or strategies
Ways in which changing demographics and health reform will likely affect your organization and the broader community in the next 5 years
