Most change communication drives employee awareness and engagement that results in behavior change and new ways of working. Any internal communication plan can build awareness of what is happening and promote its benefits. Change communication plans must do that and more. They must help people see where they fit and provide answers to their deepest concerns. For this assignment, create the communications plan for your change management capstone project. There are two parts to this assignment. For part one, complete the attached Communications Plan Table and include it in your plan. For part two, write a communication plan that address the following components: 1. Describe the objectives based on the business goals. • In other words, describe what success looks like. Like any communications effort, change communication plans should align closely with the business objectives. You can explain these objectives in a story or graphic to help everyone connect with the vision for success. 2. Outline the key messages. • You’ll need core messages that explain the overarching change and vision, as well as audience-specific messages to support key milestones. Consider different departments in your organization, for example. You may want to time the messages for various departments to be released at different times during the change initiative based on their specific role. Each department might have slightly different expectations or objectives for their role in your change implementation timeline, and you should plan for these to maximize a successful rollout. 3. Illustrate the communication strategies and tactics. • This section summarizes the key activities you’ll implement to support the change for all stakeholders. You could organize it by target audience (e.g., leaders/front-line employees) or by change initiative (e.g., phases of a software rollout). 4. Identify how to process input and ongoing feedback. • Be ready to develop your activities to meet changing needs and continuously evaluate the effectiveness of communications efforts. This will be easier if you engage regularly with those on the front lines of the change—whether through focus groups, surveys, or periodic input meetings with a cross-functional work team. 5. Create an action plan. • A game plan outlines specific activities and timing for executing tactics in the change communications plan. It details the deadlines and people responsible for steps, including leader and legal review of content and design, printing or other production, mailing, distribution, and delivery of presentations or information to employees. You can write out this plan or create a table or graphic representation
This is a case study below I have posted the case study so it seems like a lot, but this is just the case study trying to give as much information as I could. I have posted the rubric and expectations for this assignment and the soap note template. Please note for the Week 3 assignment Focused SOAP note. You should complete the Focused SOAP note and then respond to questions at the end of the Focused SOAP note. The information is not made up in the SOAP note. You can indicate what questions you may ask or what additional assessment you may do on the patient, but no patient information should be made up for SOAP notes. Use the Focused SOAP Note Template to address the following: Subjective: What details are provided regarding the patient’s personal and medical history? Objective: What observations did you make during the physical assessment? Include pertinent positive and negative physical exam findings. Describe whether the patient presented with any morbidities or psychosocial issues. Assessment: Explain your differential diagnoses, providing a minimum of three. List them from highest priority to lowest priority and include their CPT and ICD-10 codes for the diagnosis. What would your primary diagnosis be and why? Plan: Explain your plan for diagnostics and primary diagnosis. What would your plan be for treatment and management? Include pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatments, alternative therapies, and follow-up parameters as well as a rationale for this treatment and management plan. Reflection notes: Describe your “aha!” moments from analyzing this case. Identify three to five possible conditions that may be considered in a differential diagnosis for the patient. This is the CASE STUDY PEDS/PROCEDURES A mother brings in her 11-year-old son, Branch, because he has had a nosebleed. She is concerned about it because they have been applying pressure by pinching it and the nosebleed won’t stop. He has no history of nosebleeds. He has no significant medical history and no known allergies. He is on no medications. Mom and Branch deny trauma to the nose. He says he just woke up with a nosebleed and it won’t stop. He tells you that the left side is the side that is bleeding. Vital signs: BP 110/70 P 84 R 14 T 97.8 oral Pulse ox 99% You recognize that simple pressure is not going to stop the nosebleed so you know that you will not have to intervene. 1. Prior to any type of procedure, you have the mother sign an informed consent for a procedure. What are the three major areas you must discuss when doing any type of procedure? 2. Nosebleeds can be divided into three groups. What are they? 3. 90% of nosebleeds fall into which group? 4. Name 4 indications for intervention by a provider for a nosebleed. 5. You place Branch on the exam table at approximately 45 degrees. You drape him appropriately. You have him blow his nose gently to remove clots. You then inspect the right side to familiarize yourself with his anatomy. You then inspect the left side using a nasal speculum. When using the nasal speculum, it is important to use it ______________ (HORIZONTALLY/VERTICALLY). 6. Why is it important to use the nasal speculum a certain way? 7. You note that the bleeding is coming from an area on the septum. You know that the next step is to apply a vasoconstrictive solution to the nose. What are two ways you can deliver the vasoconstrictive solution? 8. You note that the area that is the source of the bleeding is about 3 mm in diameter. You make the decision to use a silver nitrate stick. How long should you apply pressure with the stick? 9. Why it is it important not to use the silver nitrate for over that time frame? 10. After hemostasis is obtained, what are three types of treatment methods that can be used to protect the cauterization site? 11. If that had not stopped the bleeding and you had to make the decision to use a nasal sponge or nasal tampon, the sponge/tampon should be coated in _____________ and left in place for __________ hours. After putting in the nasal sponge/tampon, approximately 2 ml of ________ or _______ should be dripped onto the tip to help the sponge expand. 13. After placing the nasal sponge/tampon, the patient should be closely monitored for 3-5 minutes. Why is that? 14. After the close monitoring, the patient should be kept in observation status for ______ minutes. 15. If a sponge/tampon is used, it is not necessary to use antibiotics. 16. If it is necessary to pack the nose, it may be advisable to give the patient a narcotic or sedative medication (unless a contraindication exists). Why? 17. Name 5 complications of the above procedures. 18. After the procedure, you tell the pt and his mother that he can take acetaminophen for any pain/discomfort. Why is it important not to have him take ibuprofen? 19. What is the leading cause of nosebleeds in adolescents? 20. What CPT code would you use for the above procedure? 21. What is the definition of the above code?

"EXPLAIN CALIFORNIA’S CURRENT SEISMIC (TECTONIC) SITUATION" Note that you do not need to include the "Basin & Range Extension" in your essay. As such, there are three main components specific to California that you can write about: the Transform Plate Boundary, Converging Plate Boundary, and Diverging Plate Boundary. Since a traditional college-level essay of 5 paragraphs includes an introduction, 3 body paragraphs, and a conclusion, you can write one body paragraph on each of the three plate boundaries that are part of California's current tectonic situation (as discussed in lecture). And, be sure to include some of the key points made in the video lectures and Canvas course content, such as forces involved, plates involved, type of motion, location, resultant features on the landscape, etc.
