In this competency, you learned about the history of healthcare informatics and its impact on the healthcare industry. This assignment will offer you the opportunity to research recent healthcare trends and evaluate their effect on healthcare informatics. After conducting the required research, write an 800 to 1,000-word paper describing a current news issue.

Use the following prompts to guide your explanation of how the issue affects healthcare informatics.

  • How does the issue impact healthcare informatics?
  • Will this issue have a long-term effect?
  • Will this effect be positive or negative? Why?

You may refer to the course material for supporting evidence, but you must also use at least three credible, outside sources and cite them using APA format.

Please include a mix of both primary and secondary sources, with at least one source from a scholarly peer-reviewed journal.

  • Primary sources are first-hand accounts such as interviews, advertisements, speeches, company documents,       statements, and press releases published by the company in question.
  • Secondary sources come from peer-reviewed scholarly journals, such as the Journal of Management. You       may use like JSTOR, Google Scholar, and Social Science Research Network to find articles from these journals. Secondary sources may also come from reputable websites with .gov, .edu, or .org in the domain. (Wikipedia is not a reputable source, though the sources listed in Wikipedia articles may be acceptable.)

You may also want to consider the following sources for your research:

  • News publications such as HuffPost and U.S. News & World Report
  • Reputable websites such as HIMSS.org and CMS.gov

Infectious Disease and Public Health

Infectious diseases come with extremely tough challenges to mitigate them and then finally get them under control. Bringing any such infectious disease under control involves a lot of decisions and cooperation between various branches of government and the health services.

Using the Internet, choose an infectious disease that was prevalent in the United States and had lasting consequences:

•Tuberculosis

Based on your research and understanding, create a 3page report in a Microsoft Word document that includes the following:

•A brief description of your chosen infectious disease along with your reasons for choosing the disease.

•Information on the work conducted by government departments to mitigate the impact of your chosen infectious disease.

•Investigations, research studies, and other surveillance data analyses regarding your chosen infectious disease.

•Instances of the emergence and re-emergence of your chosen disease.

•A brief summary of the government’s findings and investigations about your chosen disease.

•Past, current, and ongoing research pertaining to your chosen disease.

Support your writing with relevant facts or figures and indicate your current knowledge of the infectious disease.

 the following case:

Luisa is a 32 year-old mother of two children; one child, a daughter is a teenager and the other, a son, is ten years old. Luisa has worked as an administrative assistant for the past several years. She is recently separated from her husband who is a professional manager. Luisa sees her husband as difficult. He is very rigid in his style of communicating and he often tells her that “she is lazy and stupid”. While he never hits her, he constantly berates her cooking and how she keeps the house. He has been this way for years but Luisa thought this “was the way things were supposed to be” She and her husband separated last month because he started to drink heavily and was coming home drunk. Luisa started to fear for the safety of her children and herself.

Even though Luisa has worked for the same company for several years, she worries all of the time about her job. Now that she is alone she is not sure she will have enough money for the children. She does not really want to get divorced due to her religion and also because she thinks her husband will not provide for the children once he leaves “for good”. Despite her trying to remain positive for her children and large family of parents and brothers and sisters, she has not been able to relax. She has trouble sleeping and is starting to compulsively eat. She finds herself yelling at her children for no reason. Her behavior is starting to be noticed at work which is making her more tense and worried. Just last night she felt like she was having a “heart attack”. Her heart started to beat quickly and she was short of breath.

Luisa’s supervisor suggested she come to the out-patient community clinic where you work. He thought it would help her. When you walk into the room, Luisa says, “my boss gave me time off to come here to get help”. Luisa’s face is pale, her voice very low, and she is wringing her hands as she talks. She does not look at you but rather at the floor.

In 2-3 pages, answer the following questions:

  1. What will you say to her next? What will be your non-verbal communication?
  2. What will you need to do and say to establish and maintain a therapeutic environment where Luisa will trust and feel comfortable sharing her concerns and feelings?
  3. What will you do to maintain “boundaries”?
  4. What resources do you think will be helpful to her both physically and emotionally?

Finally, discuss the impact not successfully resolving the issue could have on the future of health care delivery.
