Statistical database management and forecasting HW
Statistical database management and forecasting HW
As part of the ongoing training for staff at AKT Hospital, you have been tasked to create to create a PowerPoint presentation with 10-12 slides about various organizations that conduct health care research:
The presentation will include a list of 8-10 organizations that conduct health care statistical research.
Each slide will have 4-6 bullets and 100-150 words of speaker’s notes and pictures. Describe the organization, the type of statistical research that the organization conducts, and examples of the type of information that can be found in each database.
Students will choose 1 of the organizations and include step-by-step directions on how to conduct an analysis within the database.
Conduct an analysis within the organization’s database, explain the type of information that was retrieved in the analysis, and provide real-world examples of how the information can be used to create interventions, improve quality, and/or help to prepare an organization to meet accreditation standards.
Provide examples of how health care statistics are used in business for marketing research, advertising, operations, finance, and economics analysis.
You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.
Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.
Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.
The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
