The World Health Organization developed the Early Warning Alert and Response Network (EWARN) for early detection of epidemic-prone diseases. Discuss the merits of using such a system for surveillance of Cholera in Yemen (approximately 500 words).
Using the literature discuss how you would define cases (probable, suspected and confirmed) of Cholera in Yemen (approximately 500 words).
Although the case definition for suspected Cholera is highly sensitive, it is not specific, and can lead to misclassification of diarrhoea due to other causes. Explain what is meant by sensitivity and specificity in this example (approximately 100 words). Outline some of the factors which have contributed to the Cholera epidemic in Yemen (600 words).
Between Sept 28, 2016, and March 12, 2018, there were 1,103,683 suspected Cholera cases and 2,385 deaths reported through the cholera surveillance system, representing an overall attack rate of 3·69% and a case fatality rate (CFR) of 0·22%. Interpret the attack rate and CFR (100 words).
Research on the Cholera outbreak in Yemen has found a positive, non-linear, association between weekly rainfall and suspected Cholera incidence in the following 10 days. The relative risk of Cholera after a weekly rainfall of 25 mm was 1·42 (95% CI 1·31–1·55) compared with a week without rain. Interpret this finding (100 words).
Outline some possible interventions to contain and prevent the spread of Cholera in Yemen (600 words).
The total word count for this assessment is: 2,500.

Introduction
Health care managers in today’s modern environment need to understand the importance and role of health information management (HIM). This also includes an understanding of the professional needs to ensure the HIMs are compliant and operating in an efficient and effective manner. In this assessment, you will once again work with the interactive scenario at a fictional hospital system. You will be tasked with researching health information professionals, their job functions and abilities to help the organization maintain or improve their HIM systems. You will apply your research of health information professionals and their job functions to the scenario by creating and developing a job description that matches the organization’s needs. It is important for organizations to hire the right professionals to manage their health information systems ensuring that those professionals and their skills are in line with organizational goals.
In your career as a health care manager, it may become necessary to create specific job postings based on your organization’s staffing needs. One of those positions might be a health information manager or health IT professional. Understanding the duties and responsibilities of this job will enable you to recruit qualified candidates more effectively. Additionally, you will need to demonstrate the value of this position to the organization or relevant stakeholders. By improving your ability to advocate for your staffing and resource needs you will be better prepared to make convincing arguments for funding.
As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as a part of your assessment.
What are the specific job duties a new hire will need to perform with regards to EHR or HIM systems management?
What kinds of training or certification are most desirable for an applicant? Why?
What qualifications are required in similar job postings at other organizations?
Hint: Look online for similar job postings.
How will you defend the need to fulfill the new HIM position with regards to meeting organizational needs and return on investment?
What evidence can you use to help support your defense?
This assessment should be completed second.
Scenario
For this assessment, refer to your work on the Analysis of Electronic Health Records System assignment. You may also wish to refer back to the Vila Health: Analysis of an EHR System simulation and the documents in the resources provided for this assessment section.
Now that you have made recommendations on an EHR and meaningful use compliance, leadership has decided to hire a Health Information manager to oversee the EHR and other relevant HIM. This person will be responsible for ensuring long-term meaningful use compliance and work with the staff, stakeholders, and vendors to ensure continued success and seamless use of the EHR system.
Since you spent so much time analyzing the organization’s systems, the new hire will report directly to you and you will take the lead in the hiring process.

Conceptual Design (Section III) and Design Revision (Section III)
Writing Assignment Help Overview: Database design is an integral step in the overall development of a database solution; a bad design can lead to many issues and
problems with queries and potential expansion for any database. Getting the database design right is the first and most important step in
creating a successful database.
Prompt: In Milestone One, you read the final project scenario and then gathered the business requirements based on the goals, objectives, and
user and business needs.
For this milestone, you will frame the entity relationship model (ERM) and define the entities and attributes for the business. Your next steps will
be to normalize your entities, define primary and foreign keys, and finally, draft an initial entity-relationship diagram (ERD).
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
II. Conceptual Design: Using your analysis of the provided scenario, address the following in order to determine an appropriate entityrelationship model (ERM) that will inform your final design:
A. Assess various ERMs for their design applicability to your database design.
Hint: In this section, define the process you have used, and note several considerations you have made in your choice of
specific entities and attributes. Be sure to list the various entities and attributes that are of interest based on the scenario.
Some entities and attributes may not ultimately be included in your initial or final design and ERD.
B. Determine the appropriate ERM and explain your choice.
Hint: Describe the appropriateness, reason, or basis for why certain entities and attributes would be included in your design
and others would be left out.
C. Identify the data sets for the database, including all entities and attributes.
III. Design Revision: During this stage, you will draft your entity-relationship diagram (ERD), addressing the following elements:
A. Construct your ERD, utilizing your identified entities and attributes.
B. Determine appropriate primary and foreign keys for each entity and note them on your ERD.
C. Determine table relationships and note them on your ERD.
D. Determine appropriate data types and sizes for each attribute and note them on your ERD.
E. Complete the normalization process utilizing dependency diagrams in order to prove tables are in third normal form (3NF), and
adjust your ERD if necessary.
Hint: For each entity and table, complete dependency diagrams proving the table is in 3NF. If a table is in 3NF, only one
diagram is needed; if it is not in 3NF, progress through the normalization process, breaking up tables as necessary.
Additionally, revise your ERD based on the results of your normalization process.
