Original questions unanswered: (this is to follow what the answers below are referring to) *IDENTIFY the origin of each of the following items AND discuss the significance of the exchange of each item: beans (New World); chocolate (New World); cor n (New World); cotton (New world AND Old world); horses (Old World); potato (New World); pumpkin (New World); turkeys (New World); wheat (Old World); wool (Old World). Please respond to the peer completed answers below: (NO opinion just fact!) Many wonderful food items originated in America such as Beans, Chocolate, Corn, Potato’s, Pumpkins and Turkeys to name a few. If not for the exchange of beans history would be different because London wouldn’t have been able to create one of their staple dishes of beans on toast. Just a simple can of baked beans on buttered pieces of toast is a traditional favorite in London, without this exchange this staple dish would not have ever been created. And of course beans make up so many other foods we eat today, from chili dishes, bean burritos, baked bean dishes at summer potlucks, or a Jamaican favorite of rice and peas (aka beans). If not for the exchange of chocolate candy manufacturers would be nonexistent, and most devastatingly the world would be lacking in dessert options. However, I have to point out, that most of our “chocolate” wouldn’t be chocolate had we not been able to import sugar from Asia and Africa. Cacao may come from America, but to create Chocolate we needed the exchange of sugar as well. What a wonderful partnership these two ingredients make. Corn is included in the majority of our food items today, it is also used as the primary food source for the cattle and poultry that we eat. America produces 45% of the words corn (Norton, 21). Our history would also be different without the exchange of the potato because the positive impact on our economy from the sale of these goods has made a huge financial impact on America. Not to mention the many dishes made around the word with potatoes would not be available. A fresh potato just pulled from the ground is one of the tastiest treats and is a good starch and filler. If not for the exchange of the Pumpkin, pumpkin pie which is considered an all American favorite dessert especially on Thanksgiving. The pumpkin was also carved and today is used by many in celebration of Halloween. It is called a jack-0-lantern. The pumpkin has made a huge impact on our culture and how many Americans and the rest of the word view these two American Holidays. If not for the exchange of the Turkey this would affect our history in that Some wonderful items originated in Europe such as Horses, Wheat and Wool. Horses really brought America into a new era and traveling by foot became a thing of the past. Had horses not been exchanged America wouldn’t have had reason to make carriages for horses to pull and for families to travel long distances. Traveling by horseback made hunting much easier as well. Wheat, much like Corn, has made a huge impact on the food we eat today. A major food staple Bread is the main staple of why wheat is planted and harvested. If not for the exchange of wheat America would be without the kinds of breads we have today. Wheat is also found in almost all cereals, it is easy to harvest and can be stored for short and long term periods which made it very easy for managing from start to finish (Lidon) Wool was typically used for clothing and had there not been the exchange of wool, many clothing items would not be available. Wool is a very warm material and it was woven into fabric, it is still used today in clothing. Cotton originated from both America and Asia. Cotton is one of the most used sources for clothing today. It comes from a plant and had there not been the exchange of cotton I really am not sure how we would have created clothing that was comfortable to wear. Cotton is a soft material it is a hugely important crop that most if not all of the world uses.

PLEASE SEE ATTACHMENT FOR COMPLETE ASSIGNMENT INSTRUCTIONS!!!
Describe the methodology and processes used to implement the plan.
Develop a response to the following questions:
- What types of care or service does your chosen organization focus on? What is its mission? What QI goals does the organization have in place?
- What is the role of consumers–patient, family, and friends–in your organization’s QI process? What external quality indicators are available to consumers regarding that organization? Describe at least three indicators in detail. How do consumers use these indicators as part of the QI process?
- For your organization, how is or can stakeholder–patient, managers, administrators, clinician, health insurers, regulatory agencies, and so forth–feedback be used in the QI process? If you do not know how it is used, indicate how it can be used.
Final Organizational QI Plan
The Final QI plan should be between 10 and 15 pages in length (Title page, Executive Summary, and Reference List are not included in this count).
You are encouraged, and expected to address the issues that I identified in the first three parts of the plan. That is, if I noted the need to directly apply the concepts to your specific, identified QI opportunities, then be sure to do that. For example, if I asked you to identify specific metrics and the source of benchmarking data, then be sure to provide that.
The audience for the plan is the Board of Directors. Thus, you must be careful not to provide “too much” detail yet enough information for the Board to make an informed decision. For example, the Board knows the mission, vision and values – so, there’s no need to reiterate that. Similarly, do not discuss alternative QI methodologies – briefly discuss the only the selected model. Organize the plan as you would submit it to the organization’s board of directors for their review and approval.
Do not simply “copy and paste” sections from previous parts of the plan. Instead, summarize previous assignments, prepared with the intent to present the most important points of your research.
Include a one-page Executive Summary – this brief overview follows the Title page. Note, an Executive Summary does not replace the introduction. A brief introduction is still expected in the body of the main paper. This summary should provide answers to the following questions (do not include these questions in the summary – just the answers, in a standard, narrative style):
– What is the specific quality improvement opportunity?
– How is performance measured?
– What is the current level of performance? What are the goal and benchmarks?
– What are the actions/tactics being proposed to address the opportunity?
– How will outcomes and issues be communicated and to whom?
The required components for the plan are:
Organizational Overview & Goals: First, provide a very brief overview of the organization and its services (no more than one paragraph) (This information was covered in Part IV).
Next, summarize goals the organization has to meet its mission. These are principles that shape how the organization views and achieves quality. Examples may involve the concepts of safety, effectiveness, timeliness, and patient centeredness. This should be no more than two paragraphs. (This information was initially covered in Part I).
Improvement Opportunity: Briefly describe the selected improvement opportunity, the current level of performance (be sure to provide data if available, or at the very least identify the specific metrics), the targeted goal, and its importance to the organization. This section should be one or two paragraphs. (This information was initially covered in Part III).
Authority Structure: Summarize the authority structure of the plan’s implementation (From Part III). Describe who is responsible for implementing the plan. Include a brief description of each role involved in the plan. This section should be approximately one page:
- Board of Directors
- Executive Leadership
- Quality Improvement Committee
- Medical staff
- Middle Management
- Staff
- Role of patients or consumers (from Part IV)
QI Method: Describe the methodology and processes used to implement the plan. This section should range from half a page to a full page. (This information was initially covered in Part II).
QI Activities: Describe what departments, programs, and activities are affected by the plan and why they are involved in its implementation. This section should be approximately one page.
Data Collection and Analysis: Describe the type of performance data to be collected and why that data is focused on. Describe why each data collection and display tool was selected for the QI plan. This section should be half a page to a full page. (This information was initially covered in Part II, but you may find your responses to the questions for Part IV relevant).
Benchmarking: Describe what the organization will use as a standard to compare performance, such as a comparative database or a competing organization’s annual report.
Reporting & Communication: Identify who the performance activity outcomes are communicated to and who does the communicating. This describes who is responsible for overseeing data collection and preparing data reports. This section should be approximately one or two paragraph.
Education: Describe how staff will be educated regarding the plan. This covers how each staff member will be initially oriented to the plan and each employee fits into the plan based on job responsibilities. This section must be approximately one to two paragraphs.
Annual Evaluation: Describe what and how elements of the plan are annually evaluated for improvement. This section must be approximately one paragraph.
Cite a minimum of 5 (no more than five years old) credible references (at the graduate level you must draw from relevant scholarly journals. Do not use websites, online dictionaries, etc.)
Format your assignment consistent with APA guidelines. For example, be sure to include a title page, provide a proper introduction and conclusion, and a properly formatted reference list
http://content.govdelivery.com/accounts/USHHS/bulletins/11e9941
Uploaded another reference plus three pages. The topic is health literacy in a faith based community nursing role who assist the least served.

1.How did the European nations differ in their approach to settlement?
English colonists came to the Americas in order to live. This was different than many of the other nations that came over from Europe. To most (namely the Dutch, French and Spanish), the colonists were here in order to make a quick buck and get back home with their newfound riches. However, Norton stats that, “they (English settlers) arrived in family groups and re-created the European agricutlrual economy and family life to an extent impossible in colonies where single men predominated” (Norton, et al, 2012 p. 29). This shows that while all the countries involved were looking to make a profit, the English came to the Americas to also find a new home. The other countries that came over usually came singularly just so that they could make their prospects better at home when they returned. The French, however made a stranglehold on beaver pelts in the Canadian wilderness through their forts of Quebec and Montreal. This made the French outposts more secure as they were in close proximity of each other, unlike the Spaniards who were spaced out in several colonies.
2.Did they share any substantive similarities?
All the European countries came over to seemingly make money for their homeland. At first, the Spanish came because they believed in the famed ‘golden city’ of the natives. However, in the long run it was the production of sugar and tobacco that was sent back to Europe because of it’s high demand and the fact that it wasn’t easily made there. New colonists found that with the importation of tea and coffee from the orient, the need for sugar only grew.
3.What benefits did the New World provide for each “mother country”?
The New World provided an easy way for Europe to import sugar cane. Before the colonies, sugar cane came from “Madeiras, the Canaries, Sao Tome, and Brazil” (Norton, et al, 2012 p. 35). The climate and the slaves which were brought over for labor caused the British and French colonies to have a leg-up on the competition for sugar cane. This leg-up also provided a way to make tobacco cheaper so the European colonies in Virginia were able to find a way to have escalating profits. Also, by having interaction with the people of the area, colonies such as New England were able to produce maize as a new food staple which they had never seen before.

Thank you for your thoughtful post. I didn’t read the assignment the same way that you did — a point which I am now regretting! I understood “Discuss public opinion and the American electoral process” to mean that we should discuss public opinion in conjunction with the electoral process. Strong effort in exampling how to respond appropriately to the posted question. Regarding your content about the Zogby and Gallup polls, you defined the polls as often controlled by major news organizations in order to allow candidates the opportunity to monitor short-term campaign developments. I challenge that interpretation and assert that the Gallup Poll, in particular, is not controlled by news organizations. It functions as an independent organization. At the Gallup website, posted statements by company representatives indicate an established policy that it avoids undertaking polls paid for or sponsored by any special interest groups (Gallup). Also, I fail to note the connection between the Gallup public opinion polls and the tracking polls, which as defined by our text, serve a narrow purpose (Terrant 57). Beyond the Terrant text information, my additional research unearthed an interesting article on the Zogby poll posted to a commercial political website, (Zogby). My analysis of the article content is limited to facts which support our text as the website is “commercial” and lacks a specific author for the piece (thus, no authority can be established for some of the interesting revelations and assertions) (Zogby). Still,it is worth reading if only to register questions and issues surrounding Zogby polls.
