Case Dscumentation

 

 

Part I

Consider the following scenario:

Amber, a 20-year-old college student is seeking mental health services for depression at the local community mental health center. During your meeting with Amber, she states that she has suicidal thoughts and has a bottle of Ambien in her apartment which she has considered taking to end her life. Because Amber is distraught and cannot commit to a safety plan you suggest that she be hospitalized psychiatrically for her safety. Amber states that she does not want to be hospitalized and has no intention of signing papers for voluntary hospitalization. She ultimately refuses and walks out of the agency’s front door.

In a two-page paper include the following.

You are the human service worker who completed Amber’s intake. You must now document the facts of your meeting with Amber. Write a case note addressing the following:

  • Time and date of the event. (This can be fictional).
  • Summary of the meeting.
  • Discussion with the supervisor.
  • Plan of action now that the client has walked out of the agency.

Part II

Explain your legal obligations in this scenario and any exceptions that might apply to client confidentiality.

Remember, writing in the third person means not using I, me or my in the case note. You can say things like, “The client reports that she…” “Supervisor was contacted and made aware of the situation.”

Assignment 1: Organizing HR Projects

Due Week 3 and worth 145 points

Your company has had embedded HR generalists in business units for the past several years. Over that time, it has become costlier, and more difficult to maintain standards, and is a frustration for business units to have that budget “hit.” The leadership has decided to move to a more centralized model of delivering HR services and has asked you to evaluate that proposition and begin establishing a project team to initiate the needed changes. The project team is selected and you must now provide general direction.

Write a five to six (5-6) page paper in which you:

  1. Review and define the five (5) steps of strategic planning depicted in Exhibit 2-1 in the textbook on page 34. Based on the information, provide a statement of overall importance of these steps to your project team.
  2. Develop a vision and mission statement for the project team specific to the current project. HINT: It is highly recommended to follow the guidance offered in the textbook about vision and mission statement.
  3. Explain to the project team what a project charter is and why it is used. Then, review Exhibit 3.3 in the textbook and select any 3 charter elements you feel are more important and explain why.
  4. Provide a “Statement of Emphasis” to your project team based on the information you provided in the previous 3 sections above. The goal is to ensure your team understands the importance of the information.
  5. Go to https://research.strayer.edu to locate at least three (4) quality academic (peer-reviewed) resources in this assignment.

Week 4 Project

 

Supporting Lecture:

Review the following lecture:

  • Workplace Harassment

OSHA

The project assignment provides a forum for analyzing and evaluating relevant topics for this unit on the basis of the course competencies covered.

Introduction:

The Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) makes it illegal for employers to retaliate against an employee for voicing concerns and filing a safety complaint against the organization. The human resource manager, safety compliance manager, leaders, and employees should be well informed of all safety policies and disclose any violations. Conduct an Internet search to find a court case in which a whistle-blower faced termination or discrimination for disclosing safety violations against the employer.

  • Identify the parties involved in the OSHA violation and provide the factual details of the event, which led to litigation.
  • Analyze the facts and apply the OSHA regulations for whistle-blowers.
  • Analyze the facts and determine if the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) applies to the organization.  
  • Justify your view on what should have been done to prevent the OSHA violation as well as provide your advice and best OSHA practices to avoid future OSHA violations and litigations.

To support your work, use your course and textbook readings and also use the South University Online Library. As in all assignments, cite all sources in your work and provide references for the citations in APA format.

Submission Details:

  • Create a 2- to 3-page Word document.
