Case Study 2
Answer only the case study questions which are
1. What approaches to justifying this investment might Sylvia consider?
2. What are some of the costs and benefits involved in this investment in an HRIS? Which would you be sure to include in your BCA of this project and why?
3. Explain how to estimate costs and benefits, both direct and indirect, in terms that Jim will understand. (Remember, Jim always has his eye on the “bottom line.”)

QUESTIONS 3
1) Utilizing publicly available search engines, identify an example whereby lack of information sharing among criminal justice organizations may have contributed towards a negative outcome. Discuss some factors that served as a barrier to exchanging information among relevant agencies.
Using the public engine Google Scholar, I was led to an article on miscommunication leading to a suspect’s death while unarmed, resulting in an excessive use of force. The inter-agency connection in this case involved the Las Vegas Police Department and the U.S. Marshalls (Ho, 2016). Police dispatchers warned the Las Vegas Police Department that the suspect was wanted by the federal marshals for an attempted murder. This was later debunked when it was discovered that the marshals wanted the suspect fort a missing court appearance. On the scene of the accident, both police officers and Marshalls were there. The police officers were demanding the suspect to drop his weapon, a weapon which he did not possess.
2) What are some steps that could have been taken to overcome the barriers you identified in part 1?
The main issue with this case lied on the officer’s discretion, and capability to use less than lethal force before deadly force. While this was a training issue and part of the Las Vegas Police Department’s answer to police response tactics, the problem lied with inter-agency communication and the claim that the suspect was dangerous and armed. To have avoided this fatal accident, U.S. Marshalls should have relayed that the finding of a firearm belonged to the driver of the vehicle that the suspect fled in, not the suspect. Clear communication would have led to the identity of the suspect as a passenger, and no weapon registered to their name, only a partner in their crime. Inter-agency collaboration is very important, especially when warning other departments to assist with a possible danger. Since the Las Vegas Police Department received the initial call of a dangerous situation, the officers possibly arrived on scene with a bias that they could be killed or injured due to an unstable suspect with a weapon. If the two departments had shared a reporting system where they could both look up on background information of the suspect, it would have been identified that they were a low threat. Instead, an unarmed black man lost their life top police excessive force, leading to further scrutiny.

Intervention Plan Design
Develop a 5 page holistic intervention plan design to improve the quality of outcomes for your target population and setting.
Introduction
Your application of the PICOT approach to developing your problem statement and the research that you conducted and synthesized in your literature review are the foundation and framework that you will need to successfully build your intervention plan. This plan will lay out specific components of the intervention you are planning to address the need you have identified for the target population and setting. You will justify your approach to the intervention plan by integrating appropriate theoretical foundations. You will also analyze and address the needs of stakeholders, requirements of regulatory bodies, and ethical and legal considerations. It is important to have a sound intervention plan design in place before trying to work on the details of implementation and evaluation.
Preparations
Read Guiding Questions: Intervention Plan Design [DOC]. This document is designed to give you questions to consider and additional guidance to help you successfully complete this assessment.
As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.
What theoretical nursing models, strategies from other disciplines, and health care technologies could help support or justify your approach to the intervention plan?
What evidence from the literature or best practice supports the intervention plan components you identified?
What, if any, potential is there for technology to help in the development or implementation of the intervention plan components?
What is the impact of stakeholders, health care policy, or regulations?\
Are there any ethical or legal considerations related to the development or implementation of the intervention plan components that need to be kept in mind? If so, what are they?
Instructions
Your intervention plan design will be the second section of your final project submission. The goal for this is to design a holistic plan that should be able to improve the quality of outcomes for your target population and setting. Provide enough detail so that the faculty member assessing your intervention plan design will be able to provide substantive feedback that you will be able to incorporate into the other project components in this course, as well as into the final draft of your project.
At minimum, be sure to address the bullet points below, as they correspond to the grading criteria. You may also want to read the scoring guide and Guiding Questions: Intervention Plan Design document (linked above) to better understand how each criterion will be assessed. In addition to the bullet points below, provide a brief introduction that refreshes the reader’s memory about your problem statement and the setting and context for this intervention plan.
