How do you think the hospitals’ “allocation of resources” effects this case scenario and the patients’ and care team?

Legal Case Study 2           Fall 2019

From your textbook, Medical Law and Ethics, 5th Ed. (Fremgen, 2016) please read the Case Assignment in

Chapter 13 on page 326 titled “The Case of Marguerite M. and The Angiogram”.

Review the Case Study and then answer the following questions in detail and use examples to demonstrate your understanding of the material. You must use at least 3 outside additional academic references and in-text citations when writing your paper in addition to your textbook. This is an APA style paper. Use APA Guidelines for your cover, in-text citations, abstract and reference page. You must give credit to authors when citing a source.

You may use the questions below to frame your paper but your paper is not to be a Q/A or bulleted type paper. Write a minimum of a full 3 pages. Include an APA cover page, an APA abstract and an APA reference page. All references and in-text citations must be APA style.

For your second Case Study it is expected that you pay attention to comments from your first Case Study and make sure you are following proper APA Style from your cover to your reference page.

Review the key points of the Case Study

  1. Do you believe that this case presents a legal or ethical problem, or both?
  2. What do you believe should be the criteria for a physician to use when having to choose a solution that will benefit one patient at the expense of another?
  3. How can Dr. K. justify this decision when speaking to the family of Marguerite ?
  4. What options does a member of the angiography team or a caregiver for Marguerite have if he or she disagrees with this decision?
  5. How do you think the hospitals’ “allocation of resources” effects this case scenario and the patients’ and care team?

Note: The answers to the questions are discussed throughout all chapters of the textbook –

not only Chapter 13. Refer to previous chapters when formulating your answers to the questions.

Why was it that none of the past three CEOs had stayed for longer than twelve months?

CASE STUDY: MANAGING CHANGE
Megan looked forward to her new lifestyle: being CEO of a 3,500-member organization, called CAR, operating in the car industry in Dearborn, Michigan, was a job that exceeded her life expectations. It was a dream job and paid really well. She enjoyed the accoutrements of being a CEO: the first-class flights, the beautiful loft apartment, the chauffeur-driven limousine were all things that she came to enjoy. The job offered more than that, for it gave her the creative freedom to direct a large and, she thought, well-managed company. However, after a couple of months she noticed that beneath the seemingly pleasant surface of the new job and people perhaps something was not quite right. The latest figures from the sales staff were disappointing. More worryingly, a major and long-term partner, one who used to make up about 20% of the turnover of CAR, had swapped to one of CAR’s main competitors. And this was something that had happened in Megan’s first week in her new job that she felt she had never really recovered from – even though it could not have been her responsibility.
What was going on? Meg took a cold, hard look at CAR; she looked beyond the hype which had intoxicated her when she was first headhunted for and then accepted the position. Why was it that none of the past three CEOs had stayed for longer than twelve months? In fact, Bob, the last CEO, told Meg that he tried to initiate changes but found it too hard to drive through the changes that he wanted to achieve. The basic problem was one of costs and profits. The environment around CAR had become pretty rough in the last couple of years. New competitors had popped up from China (a region that used to be no threat at all because of strict import regulations – but these had disappeared eighteen months ago). These competitors were offering similar products, at a much better price, and CAR was wondering how they managed to do so. It was not just a question of cheaper labor costs: CAR’s products were not that labor intensive and labor costs did not amount to much more than 10% of factor input costs. In the old days, CAR was supplying technical parts to over four different car brands in the USA, including Ford and Chrysler. CAR incrementally developed new technologies and the car manufacturers bought it. Period.
With the entrance of competitors, things changed dramatically. Even long-term clients stressed that they were looking globally for the best price/value package: they expected rapid changes in product style and function such that the lifetime cycle of the product was reduced. The old tried and tested certainties of CAR’s business model seemed to be somewhat out of date, as CAR’s clients expected innovative products to be able to offer something new. In this new, tough world, CAR did not really sit comfortably. What should it stand for? Where should it go? Should it strive to be a mass producer of cheap parts or a niche provider of innovative high-tech products?
Meg was called to attention by Anne entering her office and she turned to focus on the immediate context. Anne was formally Meg’s personal assistant, but in reality she was much more: Meg trusted her a lot since they had known each other and worked together for ages, before she came to CAR, in fact. Anne was bringing her the latest range of analysts’ reports that had downgraded their stock values yet again. This was not looking good – but who could she turn to discuss the problems? At CAR, Meg found it hard to make friends: most of the senior executives were male and Meg felt that it was not easy for them to accept her as their boss. Meg could feel in meetings and in less formal situations that both senior members as well as most of the other organizational members
did not really trust her. In fact, turnover of staff had increased by around 30% in the last three years at CAR. A lot of talented young engineers had gone elsewhere and some of the older staff had left as well, many going into retirement. Even more problematic, it was hard for CAR to get good people from top universities, since they did not have the reputation of a “funky” or “creative” organization. Also, business partners did not perceive CAR as first choice when it came to collaborating on a new concept for a product. Put simply, CAR was rapidly losing its knowledge base.
A recent report from a consulting company had identified the relatively high turnover of staff and the lack of motivation of the workforce as key problems. CAR depended heavily on product innovation in order to remain a profitable company. In the last two years, however, the R&D department had not come up with more than a handful of ideas, all of which had run into problems during the implementation process.
Meg thought that these problems must be related: the falling stock values, the innovation failures, the problems in attracting and retaining the right people. Somehow, she thought, it must be possible for CAR to recover its know-how leadership in its industry. Like a puzzle, it was hard to see how everything fitted together. Meg’s puzzle parts were as follows. Her gut feeling told her that she could not break the ice between her and her employees without formulating a strong, empowering vision which offered everybody buy-in. People did not feel comfortable with the challenges that the environment was presenting, and they did not know how to manage them well. Of course, such anxieties and discomfort were not a good starting point for creativity and innovation. But she also realized that she needed good people who were able to explore and exploit new ideas, and translate innovation into tangible competitive advantage, and it was not clear that these people were to be found in-house. Finally, Meg saw the global market as the ultimate challenge for CAR: instead of being tied to US manufacturers, she envisioned Europe, Asia, South America, and even Africa as future growth markets. But how was she to bring about all these changes?

To what extent has the ECHR been incorporated into the UK legal system?

ESSAY BRIEF

WORD COUNT:   1000 Words (+/- 10%)

Subject:

Critically assess to what extent has the ECHR been incorporated into the UK legal system?

OBJECTIVE:

The objective of this written assignment is for you to discuss how the ECHR has been incorporated into UK law by virtue of the Human Rights Act 1998, (“HRA 1998”).

The question requires you to discuss how the ECHR applies within the UK legal system. Consequently you need to provide an analysis of the HRA 1998. It would be helpful to provide a description of the main provisions of this statute and how the HRA 1998 has implemented Convention rights into UK law. You should provide a description of the impact of the statute on domestic law and in doing so you should also provide examples from the numerous case law that is available. Show critical analysis of the level at which it influences, has been implemented in, and complements the UK legislation and the challenges it still faces.

Guiding questions:

To what extent has the ECHR been incorporated into the UK legal system?

Provide a description of the main provisions of this statute and how the HRA 1998 has implemented Convention rights into UK law?

Description of the impact of the statute on domestic law?

Provide examples from the numerous case law that is available?

Lex posterior and Dualism of the UK legislation?

What does it do to be a responsible (or irresponsible) tax payer? Does it use tax havens? 

Final Assessment for International Marketing and Business Environment

In the interim, you have already described how a multinational company of your choice entered and operates in your country.  Now you must research the global operations of the same company.

Country of origin

Activities of the company

A brief historic of its share price

Legal structures

Management structures

Brand and branding: company vs. product

Marketing mix as it may or not be applied in various countries

Taxes paid as a proportion of profit

Any issues on taxation

Favourable and unfavourable press or other media.

After the research and descriptive part of your paper, draw conclusions on what you have learnt for yourself from this module and this assessment.

The important key issues as below, and the listing them here should both guide your research and direct you in the final, graded assessment:

  1. how has a multinational firm expanded, entered countries and structured their operations?
  2. what does it do to be a responsible (or irresponsible) tax payer? Does it use tax havens?
  3. how are its world-wide operations managed? Consider headquarters and national management and the interaction.
  4. what is the firm’s central promotional and branding policy (and content) and how is it adopted to local conditions and culture. This involves you understanding the impact of national culture (we are covering that now in unit 4)

In addressing these issues, please apply the concepts to the firm and country you have chosen, please take into consideration the feedback your have received for your interim assignment. You may have realized that wide and intensive secondary research is the key to this assessment.

It is important that you develop your own thoughts, based on reading from textbooks and peer-reviewed articles, rather than assemble a paper from other writers’ words.

Please do note that plagiarism will be taken extremely seriously for the final paper.

There is a word count limit of 4000 (+/- 10%) in case of the final assessment. The word count does not include the Table of Contents and references.

IMPORTANT: Please submit your final assessments in MS Word only.

Was it credible? Did you say things an average person wouldn’t know?

FORMAL FEASIBILITY REPORT

PREMISE

  • You are a consultant. Create a fictitious business name with your last name in it.
  • You’ve been hired by a large corporation the average businessperson has heard of (your choice). Its leadership wants to know if increasing its presence in a specific country is feasible and wise.
  • In the beginning, research the client and its industry to learn its concerns. You have to know its concerns before you can say if a place benefits it.
  • Then, define what “increased presence” means for that client. This will help you narrow your methodology with a criteria list upon which to judge the potential destination country.
  • Much later in the process, pick the country from a list. Then you’ll see if it’s a good match for the client based on the criteria you selected.
  • Finally, render judgement on that country as a match for the client’s needs.

From the syllabus: Students will research a country and write a formal report about the feasibility of opening a business in that country for a specific corporate client. The report will be based on scholarly research, adhere to APA citation guidelines, and demonstrate common document design guidelines. It will include a title page, executive summary, introduction, industry summary, company summary, country feasibility analysis, evaluative conclusion, references, and appendix.

Author point of view (Who are you?): You are an outsider working closely with an established company to produce an internal strategy document. It is not a marketing or promotional document. References to “your company” are appropriate, but can usually be avoided without altering a sentence’s meaning. First and second person pronouns (“I” and “you”) are mostly unneeded. Phrases like “I believe X and Y require Z…” can usually be written “X and Y require Z…”

This also means you must write objectively with no interest in whether the country is selected. Most of the document will be analytical with only the conclusion being appropriate for persuasive writing. You are analyzing risky countries on behalf of your client company. You are not cheerleaders or tourism promoters for the countries being analyzed.

Audience point of view (Who are they?): Your audience is your paying client, so you should use a deferential tone and assume you have a burden of proof. They will want to see evidence of your competence on the various subjects of the report, including their situation. On the title page you may refer to them as any reasonably named decision-making group (“executive board of,” “strategic committee for,” etc.). If you still have your BUAD 201 book, or a similar business writing reference for persuading up the chain of command

RECOMMENDED WORK SCHEDULE

  1. Pick a client
    1. The following traits make a company easier to research: American; publically traded; well known; makes a tangible product.
    2. I’ve read enough reports about Apple, Uber, Starbucks, Target, and Tesla in recent years. Don’t pick them.
    3. Make sure you pick a company (like Starbucks) and not a brand (like Frappuccino). You’ll know for sure if the company owns stock. When you can say the company’s stock ticker code (like SBUX for Starbucks), then you know you have the company.
  2. Determine the client’s industry
    1. Some companies are in many industries. Define increased presence early if yours is.
    2. When in doubt, check sites like Yahoo Finance or the stock exchange on which it’s listed.
  3. Research the client and its industry
    1. See the research guides on Titanium from the CSUF business librarian.
  4. Take the plagiarism quiz
  5. Write an industry summary and a company summary (1 page each)
    1. Have a clear division between the two topics. I recommend never typing the client’s name in the industry summary. Do not use your industry summary as “part 2” of your company summary.
  6. Check your documentation and visuals
    1. See your notes from our in-class activities on APA in-text citations and references. Also see Axtell on APA and The Business Writer’s Handbook (under “documentation”)
    2. Ensure your visuals are valuable. See lecture notes.
  7. Submit upload #1
  8. Define “increased presence”
  9. Develop client-specific criteria
  10. Write an introduction
  11. Design the title page
  12. Submit upload #2
  13. Pick and research a country
  14. Use your criteria to make your outline
  15. Write your country analysis
  16. Write your evaluative conclusion
  17. Write your executive summary
  18. Check your documentation and visuals
  19. Make a final sweep for document design uniformity
  20. Make Appendix 1
  21. Submit upload #

  • Everything must be 11-point Garamond, except elements of the title page that are larger in the sample from the BWH.
  • All paragraphs must be in standard business block paragraphs (flush on the left margin, ragged right margins, true single spacing).
  • Everything must be in true single spacing. Pull down the corner arrow in the paragraph tab and make sure the spacing section looks like this:
  • All page requirements are for a page of writing, before any visual elements.
  • I consider quotes over one line long to be a visual element. I will delete them when verifying if you wrote a page’s worth or text.
  • I consider any quotation after the first in each paragraph to be a visual element. I will delete them when verifying you wrote a page’s worth of text.
  • Bullet lists, number lists, and long lists of things like flavors and countries are also considered visual elements, and will also be deleted when verifying you wrote a page’s worth of text.
  • If you label a paragraph, label it inline with the text. Don’t waste space floating small titles above your paragraphs.
  • Repeated use/abuse of long names or terms will not count for reaching your writing minimums.
  • Design documents as uniformly as possible. Similar things should have similar appearance.
  • In-text citations and reference pages must conform to APA guidelines. These will be covered with lecture, activities, readings, and the plagiarism quiz.
  • Dodging work lowers your grade.
  • Being deceptive lowers your grade.
  • Cutting and pasting lowers your grade.
  • Plagiarizing lowers your grade.
  • Obvious claims lower your grade. Show your research.
  • Repeated claims lower your grade. Move on.
  • Vague word choice lowers your grade. Be specific.
  • Wordiness lowers your grade. Be concise.
  • Abandoned claims lower your grade. Support your claims.
  • A research section cannot get an A without a valuable visual reinforcing one paragraph.
  • All paragraphs in a research section need at least two distinct authors cited.
    • However, if a paragraph only comprises the work of others, then you’re adding no value, so make sure you have intellectual contributions in all your paragraphs.

SECTIONS

 

Title page: You already paid for a perfectly good policy on title pages, so let’s use it. See BWH p. 199 and 204.

 

Executive summary: This is a short version of the report’s purpose and recommendation with only the most persuasive supporting evidence.  It gives a complete picture of what you recommend whilst projecting your credibility. What’s the report’s purpose? What do you recommend? Do you know what you’re talking about?

It is not the intro to the intro! It should stand alone as one complete argument. It should not say “as we will see” and the later pages should not refer to it with “as we saw.” Evidence in it must be repeated in the manuscript since they should not rely on each other.

It is not a walkthrough of the entire report! It will draw primarily from your conclusion, secondarily from the analysis on the selected country, and with just enough material from your introduction’s purpose paragraph to give the reader a vivid image in his or her head about what’s going on in the report and why he or she is bothering to read it.

This page will likely be written last, since you must form your opinions first, and those opinions hinge on research. This page needs almost no formatting beyond the words “Executive Summary.”

See BWH pages 182, 183, 201, 207, and 208.

Introduction: Tell the reader why this report was written and a sketch of how you worked and what’s to come. Use the following sequence to craft an effective introduction:

  • a purpose paragraph with a brief statement about how, when, and why it was decided this report was necessary (referring to another fictitious internal meeting, report, or project); also give your definition of “increased presence” here. What does it mean for the client company to “go there”? What action would it be? What does “going there” look like for this client? Open a glitzy flagship store? Get its products on the shelves of retailers already in the country? Open a factory? Get people to take a test drive? Get celebrities to promote the products? Get people to send something in the mail? Get people to subscribe to a service? Download an app? Do what? Go there how?
  • a subjects paragraph briefly introducing the key nouns (such as the countries) and defining key terms that might come up often
  • a methodology paragraph discussing how you conducted your work, including listing and justifying your four to six criteria used to evaluate the country’s fitness for the client
  • a brief overview paragraph walking the reader through the upcoming report, making no arguments, just laying out the map

Industry summary: Make the reader conversant on the larger context of the company’s external situation. Effective industry discussions blend together some of these:

  • What is the industry?
  • What do they make or do?
  • What are its parts?
  • Different categories of businesses?
  • What are its processes?
  • How does it work?
  • Where has the industry been?
  • Any important historical events, especially recent, volatile ones?
  • Where is it going?
  • Any trends?
  • Any current trouble?
  • Any big tech changes?
  • Any changes in what customers want, or how customers get it?
  • What’s going on right now?
  • Scandals?
  • Legal hurdles?
  • Upstarts making waves?
  • Old guard dying off?
  • New or lost resources?
  • Dead areas of the industry that aren’t serviced anymore?
  • A change in top performers?
  • Changing consumer tastes?
  • Myths? Misconceptions?

When scoring, I look ask these questions: 1) Was it credible? Did you say things an average person wouldn’t know? 2) Was it informative? Did you make the reader conversant on the industry? Could they follow along without getting too lost on an industry conference call? 3) Focused? Did you have the self-confidence to not mention the client company once? 4) Was it comprehensive? Do I feel like I got a good sampling of the industry without too much minutiae or pointless stats?

Company summary: Make readers knowledgeable about the company’s specific recent events and most important details. If the company elements are done well, your reader will be conversant in the company’s current situation, interests, and challenges. Keep in mind, you are not interested in buying your client’s company, so this is not a typical company analysis like you might do in a finance class to determine its health and desirability. Instead, write this to show what your client company might consider valuable when expanding its presence.

Blend some of the following things to make an effective company discussion:

  • very brief history of the company
  • recent events, scandals, changes
  • its products, array of brands
  • its niche in its industry
  • its successes and failures
  • its customer impressions, reputation
  • some very brief recent financial information
  • anything unusual about the company that would affect where it does business

When complete, the reader needs to be confident you understand his or her company, its current situation in the industry, what it has to offer, what it cannot do, and its limitations.

Country analysis: Analyze one country through the lens of everything that’s been discussed up to this point in the report. You just spent a few pages stating what your client company considers important. Does this country offer that?

Begin with a background paragraph offering a very brief snapshot of the country’s politics, geography, recent events, etc. Lean heavily towards recent events. Avoid trivia that won’t matter later in the document.

Once the background is out of the way, start right in on the first criterion mentioned in your introduction’s methodology chapter. Give a well-developed paragraph or two testing the country for its desirability to your client company on that particular criteria. Make clear, specific claims and support them wit

Since you already justified why the criteria mattered in two places (the introduction and when going through the company and industry summaries), then there’s no reason to again say why the criteria is worthy of examination.

Repeat this process for all of your remaining criteria listed in the introduction’s methodology section.

Just end the country section with whatever your last criterion is. Don’t tack on a worthless “here’s what I just said” paragraph where you just repeat yourself. That sort of thing might be OK for longer articles of books, where the reader might have forgotten your claims and evidence, but this document is so short, that sort of thing is worthless.

Conclusion: End with a paragraph of final, summarizing evaluations of your researched country through the lens of what you claimed your client should seek in its new destination.

  • Make judgments. You must take a stand involving risk.
  • Do not repeat older claims.
  • Don’t ambush the reader with new evidence on your way out the door. The time for evidence is over.
  • This is a “Here’s what I think about all that stuff I just said” paragraph, not a “Here’s what I just said” paragraph.
  • Remember, you are an unbiased, objective analyst, with no stake in whether your analyzed country gets selected. You’re not trying to “win” for your country. This section shouldn’t have any cheerleading or promotional marketing puffery, as one might find on a biased tourism website. Telling your clients a country’s faults is just as valuable as telling them about its strengths.

 

References: Add a correctly formatted APA references page. See your lecture notes, Axtell on APA, The Business Writer’s Handbook, etc.

 

Appendix 1: Put one of your boring, long, or ugly pieces of evidence (picture, map, infographic, menu, store locator, etc.) in its own appendix. It should be something SOME readers will care about, but which would be too much of a distraction to include in your writing. If you have other appendices, label them “Appendix 2” etc.

Sheff vs. O’Neill:What law did the Connecticut General Assembly pass in order to meet the requirements of the verdict of Sheff v. O’Neill?

1.
Start with a basic description of the Sheff v. O’Neill lawsuit.
Who were the plaintiffs (all of them)? It was a carefully and strategically chosen group of people – describe what was important about the makeup of the group of families.
Some of the families lived in suburban towns, not in Hartford. Why did they join the lawsuit?
Describe the conditions that the plaintiffs hoped to address. This is to give evidence that either supports the plaintiffs’ effort or challenges the validity of the plaintiffs’ effort.
What did the Connecticut Supreme Court decide? You don’t have to describe the whole history of the case; a brief description of the final verdict is sufficient.
What law did the Connecticut General Assembly pass in order to meet the requirements of the verdict of Sheff v. O’Neill?

Briefly describe the Brown v. Board of Education case and describe why it is related to the Sheff v. O’Neill case.
Note: Brown v. Board of Education was a federal case. Sheff v. O’Neill was a Connecticut case.
At the time of Brown v. Board of Education many states had legally mandated racial segregation in schools. At that time (1954) Connecticut did not have legally mandated racial segregation in schools. Therefore, Brown v. Board of Education may not have had a significant impact on Connecticut schools.
So what is the connection between these cases? They both address segregation. They were both supported by the NAACP Legal Defense Fund. They both led to school desegregation, though the impact of Sheff v. O’Neill is much more limited. What is the Sheff v. O’Neill case about? More than 30 years after the groundbreaking Brown v. Board of Education decision, and in a state that did not have legally mandated segregation in its schools, why was it necessary to file a lawsuit about school segregation?
