The energy associated with each node would be displayed with each node. The nodes except the main source (that are fixed) are mobile. Energy Calculation: …………………………………………………………….Equation 9.2 Where, B= Magnetic flux density(Magnetic flux density is defined as the amount of magnetic flux in an area taken perpendicular to the magnetic flux 's direction.)

4 QoS Based Protocols QoS based protocols ensure sensor nodes balance between energy consumption and pre-determined QoS metrics like delay, energy, reliability and bandwidth, before delivering data to sink node. Sensor nodes have low processing capability, low memory power and limited transmission energy in addition to energy constraints. Hence the constraints impose an important requirement on wireless sensor network QoS support mechanisms including simplicity. Traffic flows from many sensor nodes to a small subset of sink nodes in most WSN applications. QoS mechanisms must be made for unbalanced QoS-constrained traffic.

1 What type of documentation did you see and inspire you? To my perspective, all those projects have been a trip toward the unconscious mind of the child and has released his/her deep emotional and visual experience. Also, the project has been a bridge between the self-unconscious (intangible) and language of self-expression (touchable) as “Artifacts”. To me as an educator with major study field in graphic and Fabric design, the outcome of the documentation has been a pure art which was occurred based on the unconscious of the child and affected his/her behavior and emotions. For the art, the timing of skill and the skill itself must be primarily unconscious responses.

Task 1A Information Storage Procedures Management Data Employee information Employee information will be stored inside a laboratory office or in HR. the non-confidential information will be stored in paper files, the confidential information will be kept in either paper files in a locked filing cabinet, or on a computer file secured with a password. This information will be updated as required due to any new required information or any changes to the existing information stored in these files. We must keep this information as there may be medical records or allergies which we need to access Work schedules The laboratory work schedules are kept in the staffroom, in the main office or possibly could be available online.

“These categories will enable information that requires security to be consistent, whether in a mainframe, client/server, workstation, file cabinet, desk drawer, waste basket, or in the mail.” ("Department of Veterans Affairs: Information Security Program," 2007) This is why the VA has categorized their information in the following three categories: 1) VA Sensitive Data/Information-which includes the individual identifiable information and health information. The impact level of sensitive information is considered high. 2) Administratively Confidential Information- also known as any information uses daily in the VA and that cannot be classified as sensitive or public like Operational business information and reports, Non-VA information that is subject to a nondisclosure agreement with another company and VA phone books.

Joe intentionally accessed his neighbor’s patient file at an empty workstation after the nurse manager neglected to log out or lock the computer before walking away. Susan, the daughter of the school nurse Jill, also violated HIPAA when she accessed Jill’s work computer to look up her fellow students’ information. Both scenarios

A student has the right to __privacy__ regarding their educational records and the school has the duty of maintaining the __confidentiality__ of those private records. Schools are required to make annual notifications to parents and students regarding their rights under FERPA. Parents or legal guardians of minors or students over the age 18 have access to and limited control of student records with several notable exemptions to include identifying __directory information__. School personnel with a legitimate reason to access those records may do so without consent of the parent or student in the course of performing their official duties, for safety or legal reasons, for financial aid or accreditation and a few other reasons. Non-compliance with purpose and result in serious consequences for the schools or individuals

Today, a medical assistant has asked to speak privately with me, the office manager, about a matter that she is greatly concerned about. She makes an accusation of fraudulent billing that is against one of the medical doctors on staff. The medical assistant alleges that she has noticed recently in the past few months that this particular doctor has repeatedly been upcoding higher evaluation appointment code descriptions for all of his Medicare patients’ appointments. She believes that these visits should have been listed with lower medical description codes for billing purposes. I would thank the medical assistant for coming to me with this information.

Importance of informed consent is for the client to understand the risks and benefits of the programme. I will do a pre-participation health appraisal screening to assess the client’s health. Pre-participation health appraisal screening will include PAR-Q, Health history questionnaire and risk stratification. After collecting and consolidating the results, I will assess and interpret the results and determine if the client have any health risk. Importance of pre-participation health appraisal screening allows us to identify if the client needs to consult a doctor before participating in any exercise programme, if a graded exercise testing is required and if a physician is required to be present during the exercise

One key element of valid informed consent is disclosure. Disclosure is when researcher has to provide the subject with important information so the other person can make relevant decisions. The investigators must ensure that he or she has sense of understanding and knowledge to deliver the subject information. The information on disclosed should include are the conditions, disorders, diseases that the patient is suffering from, potential risks and benefits of treatment, other tests require, results of non-treatment, duration and cost of treatment, natural course of the conditions and possible complications, different treatment options, expected outcome and follow up plan (Rao, 2008, para. 8).

Standard operating procedures (SOPs) for analytical processes, staff training, retaining of clinical materials, authorizing and result issuing are checked and updated. And it is important to audit SOP reliability and interactive reviews by authorized personnel with a period of time (Carson, Dent and Britain, 2007). It

This equipment is also provided to the nurses complements of the lab but they seldom use this citing lack of training and the slow process. Resulting from this management meeting, both the lab director and the nursing director agreed that the mandatory use of the patient identification machine is required and will be enforced. A memorandum will be issued by the nursing director to her staff outlining the necessary changes and consequences for not following the protocol. Labelling will be performed only by the personnel that draws the specimen.

Although both have similar fundamental concept, informed consent for clinical trials differs from the patient’s consent to treat used in health care in that informed clinical trials usually encompass more details about a procedure or trial and are designed with various objectives in mind compared to consent used in health care. For instances, in a clinical trial, patients are expected to know what the clinical trial is set up to find, the process is also meant to provide ongoing information to participant about the test. Consequently, participant can make educated decision about whether to start or stay in a clinical trial. The major difference is the ongoing information that is required for clinical trials. I believe this difference exists because clinical trials are voluntary for participants, and most participants are not knowledgeable of the overall process of the clinical trials.

For a potential research subject who is incapable of giving informed consent, the physician must seek informed consent from the legally authorised representative. These individuals must not be included in a research study that has no likelihood of benefit for them unless it is intended to promote the health of the group represented by the potential subject, the research cannot instead be performed with persons capable of providing informed consent, and the research entails only minimal risk and minimal burden. American Nurses Association (2011) Provision 3.3 : Protection of participants in research  Each individual has the right to choose whether or not to participate in research.

According to E&S(), “to give informed consent, potential research participants must have sufficient information to weigh the benefits and risks of participation” (p. 64). The career counseling consent form lacks a detailed description of any benefits the individual may receive through participation and makes no reference to any potential risks the test subject may encounter during the research study. In ways of a benefit, the form indicates that participants selected for the study may receive free instruction to aid them in making a decision on a career path. However, there is no additional details describing what the potential research subject can expect if awarded the benefit of free instruction related to career decision making. Also, the
