The need for supply chain managers to be effective cost managers is not even in question today. Because of this, it is necessary for supply chain managers to be comfortable with all facets of price and cost analysis. At times, cost management may involve something as basic as replacing one material with a lower cost, but equally effective material, or rebidding a contract. At other times, it may involve a buyer and supplier working side-by-side to manage a cost-driven pricing contract. Knowing when, where, and how to apply a specific kind of price or cost analytic technique is something that supply chain professionals must bring to the table. Explain your thoughts on what would be the most effective way to manage cost in your organization.

 As noted in previous discussions, after taking this class, you should be able to demonstrate problem-solving skills by identifying and applying local and national sources of information about groups in the helping profession. In this module, you should assume that you want to help a client dealing with one of the following problems: persistent grief from the death of a child, opioid dependency, cocaine dependency, severe depression, or bipolar disorder. The client does not want or cannot attend face-to-face meetings, so you have agreed to review this information with your client and explain to them how to use the website to attend meetings and what to expect. 

Discussion

Purpose

The purpose of the graded collaborative discussions is to engage faculty and students in an interactive dialogue to assist the student in organizing, integrating, applying, and critically appraising knowledge regarding advanced health assessment. Meaningful dialogue among faculty and students fosters the development of a learning community as ideas, perspectives, and knowledge are shared.

Course Outcomes

This discussion enables the student to meet the following course outcomes:

• CO 1: Apply advanced practice nursing knowledge to collecting health history information and physical examination findings for various patient populations. (POs 1, 2)
• CO 4: Adapt health history and physical examination skills to the developmental, gender-related, age-specific, and special population needs of the individual patient. (POs 1, 2)
• CO 5: Conduct focused and comprehensive health histories and examinations for various patient populations. (POs 1, 2)

Due Dates

Initial posts are due to the discussion board by Wednesday at 11:59 p.m. MT. Instructor and peer responses are due by Sunday at 11:59 p.m. MT. Students must post on a minimum of two separate days. A 10% late penalty will be imposed for discussions posted after the deadline Wednesday at 11:59 p.m. MT, regardless of the number of days late.

This week, you will consider assessment questions and appropriate interventions related to social determinants of health. Healthy physical, social, and economic environments strengthen the potential to achieve health and well-being. The nurse practitioner (NP) must assess all facets of clients’ health during a comprehensive health history. Identify the assigned topics listed by the first letter of your first name. For example, if your first name is Gilda then your assigned topic is education access and quality. Select an objective related to your assigned social determinant from the Healthy People website.
