Thank you for your response regards to "Rolling Meadows Community Hospital". John did not act in a fairly manner by not giving the intern the position. Even though John did confess his truly feelings it still ended up being an altercation not only for him but the hospital as well. I agree where you stated "This provide an understanding that just because one doesn’t physically touch or ask for physical contact doesn’t mean you can’t get in trouble for comment." I believe John felt like he could get away with this case just because he was the CEO of the hospital but it obviously does not matter what type of position you hold in a work environment; this should not be tolerated at any work environment.
Thank you for the opportunity to submit the attached response to the Menorah Medical Center Request for Proposal. We are extremely excited about the opportunity to work with you all again at another facility.

But according to the Shasta Regional Medical Center, they said that the patient`s has waived her rights by giving her health information to a news agency, but the patient`s lawyers argue that they stay do not have the right to share the patient`s records (Patient Privacy, HIPAA Violation Case Argued in Calif., 2014).

Two of the main challenges that Anita faced were generating revenue and redefining the mission statement of the center (Todd & White, 2002). In my opinion, Anita’s primary focus for the strategic planning retreat should consist of ways to generate revenue for the center. Without adequate revenue, the center cannot provide the services that it wants to the community. Finding ways to show contributors how important the center is to the community and that proper funding is necessary to continue to provide programs. Anita also needs to come up with a forecast that includes all aspects of the business. Developing a solid budget will help will help keep the center financial future of the center intact.
