Covey, Chapter 7

Identify the top 5 things from your reading that you consider most important and why you feel they are important. The “why” is an important aspect of the assignment, so make sure you don’t just breeze over that part. You should have a minimum of a three- to four-sentence paragraph to support your choice.

Investment potential in healthcare

Your brother-in-law, Representative Howard Hughes, lost his bid for reelection. However, thanks to your efforts, he established himself while in Congress as an astute analyst of the health field and, as a consequence, has taken a position as partner at the prestigious Atlanta investment firm of Keller, Keller, Keller, Keller, and Disher. You have decided to take him up on his offer to join him as a manager in the healthcare division.

The other partners have little insight into healthcare other than receiving care. Your brother-in-law has been asked to give a presentation (narrated PowerPoint) on the current status of the health sector and opportunities for investment.

Your job is to provide him with information on the healthcare industry. Key interest items are in the below questions. To be effective, detail needs to be specific, complete with sufficient depth.

The presentation PowerPoint slides must answer the following questions.

How is the role of government likely to change?
Will government be more or less involved in the health sector?
What impact will increased government involvement have on healthcare as a business opportunity?
Where do you see a potential for growth in the health sector?
What opportunities would make for wise investments (e.g., hospitals, home health, mental health, rehabilitation services, managed care, physician group practice management, etc.)?
Is technology a good investment risk? If yes, what sort or types of technologies are likely to be in great demand, assuming a national shift to an integrated delivery system model and a focus on prevention along with treatment?

Description of criterion
The 1015 slide presentation provides information organized in a logical sequence and it follows acceptable best practices. There is good contrast between font and background on all slides. Slides are enhanced with images and illustrations to help the audience understand the content. The layout is visually pleasing.

Organization and Cohesiveness
The presentation is well organized with the content properly subdivided into sections, and the conclusion includes recommendations, strategies, and solutions. It shows transitions, using appropriate relevant vocabulary, concepts, and theories. Logical flow is maintained throughout the presentation. All slides present one idea and a few supporting facts.

Text and Notes
The text on the slides is used to convey key information. The information displayed is clear and easy to understand

Social Work/Social Problem

The final assignment is a 10-12 page paper identifying and discussing a social problem, due at the end of the last week of the term. This paper is designed to increase students skill in conceptualizing a social problem/need and interventions that address it, using the human behavior and the social environment framework. The paper defines and describes a social problem or the need of a specific population and discusses the manifestations and impact, causes and contributing factors, and responses to the problem/need, including analysis at the micro, mezzo, and macro levels. Students will utilize online databases to search for peer-reviewed articles, with a minimum of 5 peer-reviewed references. The paper will address five key areas:

Definition of the topic and description of the population of interest; discussion of what is known/hypothesized about the impact of the problem/need

Two major social theories (from course content) used to understand the causes and effects

Identification of historical contexts and forces that have shaped current policies and/or programs that address the issue

Analysis of the effectiveness of current interventions, drawing on theory and empirical literature
