Ethical Issues And Risks Of A Venture

Shadow charts were developed to gather data and information for additional departments and medical personnel that need access to part of a patient’s file or records. The original records should always remain in the patient’s primary chart allow copies may be available to ancillary departments that may need access to the information. The same level of confidentiality and security applies to the shadow charts. They must be in a secure location with access by authorized personnel only. Additional information that should be included in shadow charts is a formal recording process to document those who access the information. Furthermore, a consistent system of upgrading the

This paper is composed for the individual assignment for week 2 of the MBA 633 Legal Issues in the Workplace course. The topic for this assignment consists of the differences between ethical and legal business issues. This paper will provide answers to questions related to employee behavior away from the office, and the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and bribes.

“I don’t mind if I have to sit on the floor at school. All I want is an education,” said Malala Yousafzai, Pakistani activist for female education. In today's society, many people don’t realize how grateful they should be for the education they receive. Even the slightest education is much more than people were receiving just three centuries ago, and even more than people in countries besides the United States of America. In specifics, women and African Americans were once unable to pursue any form of education in the United States, along with many other ethnicities.

Everyone knows that direct- to consumer-marketing is focused on the patients. There are a lot of ways to get the attention of these patients. Advertising can be done through social media, print, radio, television, and word of mouth. “Prescription direct-to-consumer advertising has become a highly scrutinized and researched topic in healthcare marketing,” (Rollins, B.L., King, K. Zinkhan G., & Perri, M., 2011.).

The boundless potential of tomorrow's artificial intelligence is plighted by the hurdle of ethical conundrums. While robot weapons allow for countries to extirpate the security threats which produce the daily fear that dictates many lives, the use of these tools has to follow a legal precedent. What is the value of life? Further, what constitutes the characteristics of a target? Although, even after such a ruling the use of said weapons should be discouraged given the implications that such strikes will bring about.

Child abuse is a serious preventable health concern in the United States (CDC, 2015). The CDC (2015) reports studies indicate 1 in 4 children suffer from maltreatment in their lifetime. More than 1500 children died from abuse or neglect in the United States in 2013 (CDC, 2015). The case study entitled Make the Best Choice deals with three times on maltreatment of a child, sexual abuse, physical abuse, and emotional abuse (CDC, 2015). The purpose of this post is to discuss the ethical principle involved in the aforementioned case study. I will also discuss the nurse’s ethical and legal obligations to the patient and the options available to the nurse. Finally, I will discuss my opinion of the case study.

The American Red Cross is a large non-profit company that is funded by charitable donations. These charitable donations, make it possible for the company to compensate it's staff. Although, to compensate it's staff the company must use it's donations. This can be unethical, due to the compensation level of executives among the company. The company must operate at an effective level of efficiency, in order for the company to do so executives must be paid well. Another possible ethical issue is the company's responsibility to it's stakeholders, each stakeholder wants to be represented by the company. The issue is present if the stakeholder does not fit in the company's operating model. Stakeholders are represented by the company, the company

In May 2016, the Foundation for Accountability and Civic Trust (FACT) filed a “complaint and request for an investigation with the Federal Election Commission (FEC or Commission) against Patrick Murphy and Floridians for a Strong Middle Class (Floridians), an independent expenditure only committee registered with the FEC and formed [as super PAC] to support Patrick Murphy’s campaign for U.S. Senate …” (Whitaker, 2016a, para. 1). The complaint holds that Murphy and his father, Thomas P. Murphy, Jr., contributed more than half of all the total contributions to the super PAC. According to Whitaker (2016a), Mr. Murphy, part owner of their family business, Coastal Construction Group, reportedly contributed $300,000 to the super PAC. Murphy’s father, CEO of Coastal Construction Group, reportedly contributed $200,000 to the super PAC (Whitaker, 2016a).

So as not to abandon the patients with their thoughts after interviews, the patients were given the opportunity to contact a social worker.

Our first opportunity is education, especially for women. There are over twenty countries that don’t have education for women. For several countries, women don’t go to school. If women do go to school, they are often pulled out when they hit puberty. This is for purity reasons for religion and for family honor. In the country of Chad, only ten percent of girls complete elementary school. In developing countries, one in four people can’t read a simple sentence. Almost 250 million children don’t have basic skills

1. The Sales Rep. A sales representative for a struggling computer supply firm has a chance to close a multimillion-dollar deal for an office system to be installed over a two-year period. The machines for the first delivery are in the company’s warehouse, but the remainder would have to be ordered from the manufacturer. Because the manufacturer is having difficulty meeting the heavy demand for the popular model, the sales representative is not sure that the subsequent deliveries can be made on time. Any delay in converting to the new system would be costly to the customer; however, the blame could be placed on the manufacturer. Should the sales representative close the deal without advising the customer

If LeBlanc orders the t-shirts from China she knows that it has low wages, rigorous work schedules, poor safety regulations, and a lack of worker’s compensation and benefits for its employees. After all, she had witnessed firsthand similar conditions when she visited a Bulgarian clothing factory while with the University of Virginia. She also had to think about the global recession, and how it would make the company look by outsourcing for cheaper t-shirts instead of supporting U.S. companies. However, if she orders the t-shirts from the San Francisco company, which she had worked with in the past, she knows good working conditions exist for the employees there. Also, even though the t-shirts were more expensive they were made of good quality, fair-trade, organic, and eco-friendly.

In my junior year of high school, I had read the book Woman at Point Zero by Nawal El Saadawi, an Egyptian author. The book depicts an Egyptian woman who grew up in a poor home and experiences difficulties with a obtaining a higher education before she results to other methods to obtain power. Prior to reading this, I was largely ignorant of the lasting impacts of gender on education in foreign cultures. I had known the lessons of “the American Dream”, which states that everyone has equal opportunity for success. However, based on the novel, my global understanding had grown to realize that the circumstances are quite different around the world. The book had shown me the links between gender and education, and that the cultural treatment of women is sometimes brutal. In the United States, I had seen that men and women have equal opportunity for education, however the cultural context of Woman at Point Zero displays that traditional gender roles largely impact an individual’s education. The novel showed me that some cultures value men above women and, thus, their educations are prioritized. The protagonist of the novel is, consequently, left with a limited education as a result of her gender, while a predominantly male college is referenced in the novel. Overall, the novel contributed to my global understanding of the treatment of women, and showed
