These days, school safety is one of the most important parts of running a good school. So how can we make our school, safer and a better school overall? Project Citizen is a project that seventh-graders do annually. The students take one problem and find a way to solve it. The goals of Project Citizen are straightforward. There are four steps to Project Citizen. First, the students need to identify a problem in the school or community. Then, they research that problem. The students need to finish

PART B INTEGRATED SUMMARY- SURGICAL SAFETY The World Health Organisation (WHO) implemented the surgical safety checklist, to minimise the discrepancies that occur as a result of improper identification of the patient (appendix O post 3). Improper identification leads to wrong procedure, hence complication and possibly death (Position Statement Surgical Safety 2015). The WHO checklist helps to improve surgical safety through confirming safety practices are upheld and developing better communication

The article “The Importance of Medical Coding as it Applies to Big Data Trends in Healthcare” talked about the importance of medical coding in relation to hospital’s data systems. Medical coding is a numerical process that brings diagnoses and healthcare systems together. It allows hospitals, physician offices and clinics to share patient information via big data trends. The article stressed that having access to medical trends from many sources is a valuable tool for healthcare facilities. Medical

included in the code and is important in diagnosis coding. Mrs. Pavey mention we can't code impending or threatened instead code the signs and symptoms. In order to prove medical necessity and get reimbursement I will say both are important. I think all topics are relevant to learn coding. We need to learn it all if we are going to be coding. Example of level of specificity Diagnosis: RUQ abdominal pain Index: Pain, abdominal Tabular: 789.0 Abdominal pain[subcategory code] 789.01 Right

I think transitioning over to ICD-10-CM will make coding easier by being more specific with the descriptions. I think that the biggest challenge is going to be just learning the different sections of the ICD-10-CM. Some other challenges may include training in ICD-10-CM, the cost of the transition, and maintaining two coding systems because some private insurance like workman compensation insurance are not required to switch over to ICD-10-CM. I believe that we have had ICD-9 since 1979 with updates

accepted set of codes for diagnoses and procedures/interventions important? In the prior weeks, I had noted that many health care professionals utilize many different methods of practice, as well as implement a certain something to each of the medical cases that reflects that clinician’s style. No matter the endless routes to get to a diagnosis or the many diverse recommendations of treatment for that diagnosis, codes are the same. The medical field having a universal set of codes for diagnoses and

either in a medical office or in a remote area coding for specific diagnoses. Medical Coding is a translation of a health care diagnosis, procedure, medical services and equipment into a medical numeric or alphanumeric codes. Medical Coders review clinical statements and assign standard codes

Are U.S. airport security regulations for flying too strict? “Since 9/11, (America’s airport security has) largely been a line of defense ahead of a departure gate to keep dangerous people and dangerous materials off a plane. By Bin Laden’s calculations, its cost $56 billion since 9/11. In one sense, it is worked as planned: No planes have been blown up or hijacked for a decade” (Airport Security Statistics). This quote explains that since 9/11 the airport security’s line of defense has been successful

ultimately my complete and main responsibility. When considering the level of supervision required it is important to remember that ’supervision’ can be interpreted into 3 different level types- I.e. the depth of supervision that you adapt, and that safety requirements outlined by Ofsted determines supervision to be adapted at all times of children in my care primarily in the following activity areas; Arrivals and departures Taking children to and from school/playgroup and pre-school Meal and snack
