Case 1 :HEALTH CARE DELIVERY AND CROSS CULTURAL HEALTH PERSPECTIVES
Case Assignment 1:
In the scenario from Module 1, we see a co-worker of Sara displaying symptoms of TB. View Tuberculosis Prevention video before responding to the following questions:

1. How could have the organization prevented the likelihood of Sara and her co-worker contracting the disease? Explain.

2. Explain the organization's role and responsibilities in providing safety to workers on the job.

3. What are the rights and responsibilities of workers to ensure their own safety in the job?
4. What are some of the leadership qualities needed to prevent workers from being exposed to communicable diseases?

Length: 3-4 pages, excluding title page and references.

Case Assignment:2

We have covered patient confidentiality in our previous courses. Keeping in mind the scenario from Module 1 and Sara's situation:

1. Discuss healthcare workers' privacy and confidentiality in ensuring all workers are safe in the worksite?

2. Describe the role of the manager versus a leader in this scenario and how this situation should be handled.

Case 2 :LEGAL AND ETHICAL ASPECTS OF HEALTH CARE

Case Assignment :1

Watch the Dealing with Diversity and the Sick Doctors Admit to Spreading Infections at Work videos before working on this assignment.
Develop a PowerPoint presentation that outlines your processes throughout the investigation and your findings. Your slides should include an interview with the relevant individuals, departments, and agencies that are involved in this scenario; evaluation of the information you gathered throughout the course of your investigation; determination of the best course of action.

Please make sure you take into consideration the language barrier since one of Sara's co-workers in this scenario only speaks Spanish. Also, have two or three slides that depict the financial implications of Sara missing work as well from the financial point of view of the agency. Health care coverage, or lack thereof, is to be considered here.
Below is an outline of key slides components that I will be looking for in your presentation.

1. Title

2. Introduction: (background and context of the problem)

3. Importance/relevance and extent of the problem

4. Causes

5. Stakeholder issues

6. Legal, ethical, and financial implications-Sarah's perspectives.

7. Legal, ethical, and financial implications-agency's perspectives.

8. Possible solutions and current attempts

9. Specific plan (policies or education program) and its likelihood of success

10. Conclusions

11. References

Length: 20 slides, excluding title page and references.
