[order_calculator]chronic condition and a Chronic Disease
This assessment has 2 parts. I don’t mind if I receive part one early before the due date and I can get part 2 later if that is not an issue for the writer. I will prefer to used current reference within the last 5 years from 2010 to 2015. I also prefer nursing date base be use for the search.
My chosen chronic condition is Type 2 Diabetes in the elderly and the model of care is the Wagner chronic care model. The short fall of the Wagner Model is obviously that it does not focus on the determinants of health or health promotion – you need to make recommendations in your manuscript about how to expand the model to incorporate these principles – you may also like to include Person Centred care.
Part 1. Aabstract and summary statement for practice and innovation manuscript
Word limits: 470, 200 words for abstract & 120 to 270 words for summary statement. Your title will not be included in your word count.
The following guidelines have been extracted and adapted from the Australian Journal of Primary Care website at: http://www.publish.csiro.au/nid/263.htm?nid=263&aid=11564
You are required to choose a chronic condition and a Chronic Disease Model of Care to improve outcomes for the individual within the primary care setting.
Title
The title should be concise and appropriately informative and should contain all keywords necessary to facilitate retrieval by modern search techniques. Additional keywords not already contained in the title or abstract may be listed beneath the abstract. An abridged title suitable for use as a running head at the top of the printed page and not exceeding 50 characters should be supplied.
The abstract
The abstract should not exceed 200 words and should state concisely the scope of the work and potential findings. Acronyms and references should be avoided. The abstract should address the following headings:
• Aims – State the aim as: “This paper presents a discussion of …”.
• Background
• Data Sources (state inclusion dates of literature or data used)
• Discussion
• Implications for chronic condition and Primary Care
• Conclusion
The summary statement
The summary statement format must include 120 -270 words and address the following headings:
• What is already known about this topic
• What this paper adds
• Implications for practice and/or policy
Under each heading, there should be 2- 3 bullet points. Each bullet point should be concise, with between 20 and 30 words in each and ending with a full stop.
Each bullet point should stand alone as a meaningful statement (i.e. not needing to rely on preceding statements) and be written in proper sentences. All bullet points should be derived from the content of the paper and be supported by the evidence presented in the paper.
The summary statement should not contain abbreviations (except for a few that are self-explanatory and universally understood, e.g. HIV/AIDS). No references should be included. Colloquial terms and local details should not be included, and nor should the paper´s country of origin (unless that is essential, pertinent information). Instead the statements should be framed globally.
Statements under the 3rd heading are necessarily prescriptive, therefore using words such as ‘should’, but they must be based on evidence that is presented in the paper.
Keywords:
A maximum of 10 possible keywords are: Primary Care, Disease management, Policy.
This assessment item needs to be considered inline with the requirements of the next assessment item 4, the written manuscript.

Part 2. Practice and Innovation Manuscript
Word limits: 2,500
This manuscript should address contemporary practice and models of care for a chronic and complex condition of your choice. The content of the manuscript should represent an extension of knowledge on addressing management of the chronic and complex condition that is relevant to the international health care community.
Include a short review of the literature on the chosen condition and identify the impact on the individual and the international relevance. Choose a contemporary chronic disease management model that addresses the social determinants of health and health promotion and describe how it might be used to improve health outcomes for your target group within the Primary Care setting. A case study may be useful to illustrate your discussion.
This manuscript should not exceed 2500 words for the main text, including quotations but excluding the abstract, summary statement, tables and references.
The main text (2,500 words) of your manuscript should include the following headings:
1. Introduction
• Provide an introductory discussion on the chronic disease and practice innovation of your choice
2. Context
• Provide a logical explanation of the condition in the context of existing national and international primary health care knowledge, determinants of health, health promotion, impact, current theory and models of care, including E and M technologies.

What is a Practice and Innovation paper? Practice and Innovation papers build on existing knowledge and may be about learning from practice. In the Journal context this requires clarity about the problem addressed, the context in which the practice is located, and how particular projects or practices in this case a model of care add to our knowledge of ways to solve or ameliorate the problem. They may be about exploring evidence-based practice. This may mean either that practices emerge from relevant research or evaluation, or it may mean exploration of evidence to practice processes and actions in their own right.
Walter et al. (2003) * describe a taxonomy of interventions reported in the literature on evidence-based policy and practice. In the taxonomy there are six categories of activity: professional, financial, organisational, patient-oriented, structural and regulatory interventions. Some interventions are about publicising research with potential users, and others are about promoting uptake of research findings by users. Some promote findings of particular research projects, others promote user engagement with researchers and accumulated bodies of knowledge, while yet others promote practices that required the acquisition of knowledge. For a more detailed discussion of these issues see the editorial in the November 2007 issue of the Australian Journal of Primary Health.

[order_calculator]Procurement management
Strategic procurement depends on strong “Supplier Relationship Management” (SRM) where procurement professionals are concerned about developing robust supplier relationships and negotiating favourable terms and conditions. In the future, it is expected that supply chain structures will become more complex and choosing the right supplier will be more critical. Increasingly stringent supplier requirements will become routine, and demanding purchasers will expect suppliers to demonstrate their essential competencies. Supply chain risk, scarcity of raw materials, environmental, sustainable and economic issues will lead to increased pressure on these buyer- supplier relationships.
You are to consider a UK business that sources food materials extensively from Greece and discuss how it can manage the dangers of economic and other risks arising from this relationship You are asked to critically discuss how the procurement function can manage a network – often global – of vendors and suppliers that can quickly become inoperative due to rapid shifts in the business environment. You are expected to provide appropriate case study examples to illustrate your answer.
This coursework should follow a structured approach and should be prepared and presented as a professional business report. You should undertake a relevant literature review that helps inform your investigation. Please also ensure that the Harvard Referencing System is adhered to and fully complied with.

[order_calculator]Theoretical review
Theoretical Review Paper (1500 words)
You are being asked to produce a 1500 theoretical review which will provide an analysis of at least three theoretical approaches to the study of nationalism from a potential six set of theories: primordialism, perennialism, ethno- symbolism, modernism, social constructionism and post-modernism. You must choose three of these approaches to review.
Students should take each of the theoretical approaches they intend to review and analyse the main aspects of each approach; its main arguments and how it understands how and when nations have come into existence. As part of the review of each approach students should also provide a critique highlighting the central weaknesses and limitations of each approach. Students should aim to write 500 words for the review of each theoretical approach they cover (which includes the critical analysis of that given theoretical approach).
Students should remember they MUST draw on the appropriate scholarly literature for each theoretical approach they cover utilising the writings and ideas of key scholars for each approach. There is plenty of literature for each approach to draw upon and the reading lists for weeks 2 and 3 are absolutely crucial for this assignment. The point of this review is to ensure that you have the theoretical grounding to explore the practical issues in nationalism studies which form part of the essay questions for the second assignment.
An example of a structure might look like this:
Theoretical approach 1: Primordialism (500 words)
? Main views and perspectives of primoridalists as to how and when
nations come into being
? Weaknesses and limitations of a primordialist approach
Theoretical approach 2: Perennialism (500 words)
? Main views and perspectives of Perennialists as to how and when
nations come into being
? Weaknesses and limitations of a Perennialist approach
Theoretical approach 3: Modernism (500 words)
? Main views and perspectives of Modernists as to how and when
nations come into being
? Weaknesses and limitations of a Modernist approach
_____
the three theories are ” Primordialism / Ethno-symbolism / Modernism”

[order_calculator]Stop Nestle Waters
SOURCES
Bottled Water Comes From the Most Drought-Ridden Places in the Country
http://www.rt.com/usa/172764-nestle-california-bottling-plant/
http://www.desertsun.com/story/news/2015/03/05/bottling-water-california-drought/24389417/
http://www.bottledlifefilm.com/index.php/the-story.html
http://stopnestlewaters.org/about
Please have a look at the sources above to have an idea of what this paper is going to be about. This is a group project about Nestlé, a multi-billion dollar multinational and its unethical business decision on using expired permits to ruthlessly pump freshwater out of California. During a historic drought, Nestlé is trying to drain California dry.
So,this paper is going to be the first part of the whole group’s paper, which focuses on introducing the company Nestle, the stakeholders, how are they affected due to Nestle’s operation (expired permit, water source, etc.),and irrationalities.
I. Stakeholders
Who are the stakeholders? [Customers, employees, stockholders, the community, suppliers, government, the financial system, etc.] Who are the most important stakeholders, and why?
II. The Company
Describe the company: is it public or private? (Are its shares traded on a public exchange; if so, it’s a public company). What is its market capitalization and who are its main competitors? What challenges and opportunities did it face at the time of the decision that you focus on (or that it now faces). How important is the firm’s general reputation for doing “good business,” or do you think it can afford not to be mindful of its reputation?
III. Irrationalities, if any?
In terms of the decision-maker you have chosen, can you see any critical thinking errors by others or by the decision-maker? Here, use Bazerman and Tenbrunsel’s Blind Spots, and/or Robert Prentice on Enron, or “Ethics Unwrapped” (a website sponsored by the University of Texas).
State if you seen any mental biases, heuristics, or other irrationalities that (A) make the decision maker’s task more difficult, and (B) have been evident in the decision-maker’s own prior decisions, or have been evident in prior decisions of others.
Feel free to research for further information. Be sure to have them cited.
