Health Body Wellness Center ISMS Implementation Plan
The Health Body Wellness Center has two basic core business objectives:
1. To make improvements of medical grants utilizing research that is federally funded.
2. Distribute a variety of medical grants to mostly small hospitals
The HBWC will be implementing an ISMS plan to facilitate these business objectives in a more secure manner. Incorporating an ISMS plan will allow executive level employees the ability to determine problem areas in the organization’s infrastructure that could be preventing the Health Body Wellness Center from providing as much support for small hospitals as possible. The ISMS plan will also ensure that the financial information passed between hospitals is kept

There are multiple security holes present that need to be addressed in order to deploy the new SHGTS system.
The Healthy Body Wellness Center should immediately consider how they will meet the standards of the traditional view of the information security industry which will include the three cornerstones of information security: confidentiality, integrity, and availability, also known as the CIA of information security (Arnason and Willet 2007)
The HWBC will need to have some processes immediately established that will help control the information and limit the amount of access that people will have to it. The first thing that the HWBC will need to remember is that security is a process, not the end goal (Arnason and Willet 2007). When an efficient ISMS is in place, management will be able to monitor protocols and control security while reducing business risks. Probably the main issue that the HWBC will need to address is access control. Currently there are no sign in logs for visitors into the computer room at the center. There needs to be some sort of access control to allow visitors entry that have provided verified contact information such as who they are, numbers address, etc. should an event happen and the organization needs to get a hold of the visitor. Also this will allow for proper logging of user activity. Secondly, administrative passwords should not only be changed periodically, they
The SWOT analysis will focus on the organizations and their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Organizations will have to face challenges, but how they recover and cope with them is important. The SWOT implies that the implementation of EHR faces some challenges of improving the safety, cost, Lack of System Integration, and productivity of patient care. Legal compliance/regulations are still a problem facing the healthcare industry as they assure security of information. The investment in the EHR is a key area when addressing these concerns because of the access of healthcare supply chains increase in workflow and efficiency. Hence, the implementation of EHR requires a level of data within the system by a

The healthcare industry consists of many strengths and weaknesses during the improvement of patient safety, efficient operations, reduction of medical errors, and ensuring that they provide timely access to all patient information. This will have to still comply with all legal guidelines as they control costs and protect patient privacy. The adoption of advanced information technology is a popular strategy being used in the healthcare industry because it allows their weaknesses to be progressively diminished as they gain and use the opportunities necessary as an analytical tool. This would allow their capabilities to be further developed with the new technologies and processes used as they unify the adoption of IT standards. In order to stay competitive within the healthcare industry, then there must be specific actions and measures that must be taken to ensure a positive outcome. This includes external opportunities to increase the capability of the IT infrastructure in a national environment as the growth of industry standards are met in order to decrease the pressured threats of legal compliance through patient trust and the high cost of IT. The growing recognition of strategic leadership often leads to both improved financial stability and contact accessibility of the system. Some challenges that may occur within the healthcare system may cause issues in a hospital setting because of the centralized society of an organization. This is because of the different visions and
| The security controls for the information system should be documented in the security plan. The security controls implementation must align with the corporate objectives and information security architecture. The security architecture provides a resource to allocate security controls. The selected security controls for the IS must be defined and

Planning is the most critical part of the organization’s information management process and requires the collective involvement of all employees of the hospital. Therefore, staff and licensed independent practitioners, selected by the hospital, should participate in the assessment, selection, integration, and use of information management systems for the delivery of care, treatment, and services.
Organizations do not change, people do (Sullivan and Decker, 2009). A manager’s responsibility is to manage people. Change is difficult for most people and managing through the change process is not an easy task. Many theories on managing change exist, but they basically have four elements: assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation (Sullivan & Decker, 2009). A manager’s role is to examine each of these elements and apply them to the people that he or she leads.
v. Objectives: the plan will entail evaluation of all systems and information on the Local Area Network (LAN) of HBWS to execute proficient ISMS so as to achieve the ISO 27000 series standards. The integrity, availability and confidentiality triad are pertinent facets in the considerations of all the data to be examined and considered during the PDCA procedure (Arnason &Willet,2008).

Improving program planning for the melanoma prevention: evaluation of a health education campaign for primary, requires critically considering the parents of those minor involved. One strategy for improving the planning when working with programs dealing with minors is a minor a consent form. The consent form should provide the overall goals of the program intervention and how are parents expected to get involved. Parental inclusion requires a great detail of information to know what is expected, where will the intervention action mainly occur, and what is required of parents to help make the changes occur in their children summer break (Fertman & Allensworth,

The purpose of this paper is to provide an introduction, purpose, and rational for selecting a nursing theory. I will describe the theory by identifying the purpose, concepts/definitions, relationships/structure, and assumptions. I will use the Chinn & Kramer evaluation criteria to critique this chosen theory. Finally I will describe a plan for implementing the theory into my practice setting, identifying any barriers and challenges.
The perspective of the article A is clearly a Realist perspective as in the section “An Alternative Plan” he lays down a plan of “offshore balancing” which is a plan that would involve in this circumstance stop the U.S from being a target by personally trying to check China’s growing power but letting China’s East Asian neighbors such as Japan, Russia and India do that job as they are the ones more immediately threatened by China’s growing power. This is a realist policy because in its very foundations it agrees with all the basic assumptions of Realism shown on page 34 to 35 of the Course Reader. With the system being anarchic and powers having military offensive capabilities being a given in both Realism and Liberalism what starts showing more realist perspectives is the third assumption where it says “states can never be certain about other states intentions” (Coursereader 34) this also goes along with the fourth assumption stating that the great powers of the world 's main goal is survival (Coursereader 34) with the author of Article A’s perspective saying that the Japanese for example have more immediate reason to be afraid of China’s rising power as any aggressive action China would take to become a regional hegemon could be an attack on their survival which they would then build up their own military to dissuade any attack.
ACME Home Improvements Inc. has made the decision to take their business internationally to Mexico City, Mexico. In doing so they will need to ensure they have a reliable and safe Information System Management plan or ISM. The headquarters office for ACME along with the Information Technology (IT) team for ACME Mexico City will consider an ISM plan that is suitable for the ACME Mexico City employees, the Mexican government and the stakeholders. The ISM plan must be able to ensure the assessment of the company’s information and provide solutions, must be able to address strengths and weaknesses that currently exist in the system and it should be able to control daily operations of the company. There are various
