What do you think are the most important issues that surround end of life?Discuss.

The question is ….The end of life and how people die has changed a great deal in the past century. Thanks in large part to advances in public health, medicine, and health care, most Americans no longer die suddenly from injury or infection. Instead, we live longer and, more often than not, die after a period of chronic illness.  How can people/families prepare for the end of life? What do you think are the most important issues that surround end of life?

 

 

Respond to classmates answer……There are many important aspects to consider when it comes to preparing for and discussing end of life. Changing of living situation such as moving to a nursing home is something that needs to be discussed if and when an older adult may not be able to care for themselves anymore. It would be helpful to discuss this before the adult gets to this point so they can have a more active role in picking a placement and other services. Preparing for a funeral and the wishes of that individual are important to discuss, especially since many cultural and religious differences exist. A living will and distribution of assets can be helpful for the family after death, as many times the emotional stress of a death in a family and then dividing up possessions and assets can be a cause of significant tension among family members. Other important aspects to consider are DNR orders, organ donor wishes, etc. The primary goal for families when dealing with a family member that is dying is to make them as comfortable as possible and to simply spend time with them. Pain reduction, being in your own home, friend and family presence can make that individual feel much more at peace with the process.

And some reflect question will relate to the policy focus, my policy focus is :police body camera.
1.Rational and Nonrational Decision-Making

Explain briefly why multiple problems and multiple goals make it more likely that decisions will be made nonrationally rather than rationally. Give at least 2 different major reasons. (50%)
What are the multiple problems and multiple goals that affect the policy you have chosen to focus on? If you are doing a blog post for this question, please link to a source that discusses or describes a the multiple problems and/or multiple goals in your policy focus area and provide an image related to multiple problems and/or goals. (50%)
Decision Making and Leadership (Please read pages 135-153 (on decision making) and pages 158-160 (Case Study: The Swine Flu Fiasco) in Chapter 6 of Contemporary Public Administration by Palumbo and Maynard-Moody)

Describe a situation related to your policy focus in which Groupthink or the Abilene Paradox occurs (30%). Identify at least 2 features of either Groupthink or the Abilene Paradox that are present and describe briefly how these features appear in this situation (40%).

If you are doing a blog post for this question, please link to a source that discusses or describes a group decision that exhibits features of Groupthink or Abilene Paradox in your policy focus area and provide an image related to either the group process or the outcome of such decisions in your policy focus area.

4.i already did that one so skip this one.

5.Motivating Changes in Behavior
What changes in behavior does your policy focus entail? (Please do not say that the legislators have to change the way they vote or the public needs to be more supportive. We are looking for specific changes in the behavior of the general public (e.g., wearing seatbelts, not littering, not drinking and driving, etc.) or in the behavior of specific groups (e.g., de-escalation training for police, registration of guns by gun-owners, etc.)). (20%)

Name two needs from Maslow’s hierarchy that you can use to motivate the change and how each of these needs could be used to promote the behavior change (e.g., Need: Esteem. An ad campaign can convince people to quit littering by relating littering behavior to “low-class” behavior.) For each need, explain briefly why the way of using it would be effective. (e.g., By relating littering to “low-class” behavior, the ad campaign implies that if you litter, other people will think you are “low-class” and will think less highly of you. Your need for external validation will encourage you to change your littering behavior.) (40% for each need)

6.Negotiating
Define the difference between positions and interests in interest-based or integrative negotiating (25%). Identify an issue that might be negotiated in your area of policy focus and at least two relevant groups with different positions (25%). (For example, in the example from Quincy, CA presented in class, the issue was the forest management policy and two of the groups were the timber company employees and the environmentalists.) Describe the positions and interests of the two groups in your policy focus (25%) and identify at least one option that would satisfy some interests of each party (25%).

7.Speaker Questions
Think about what the speaker had to say about his or her job as a public manager. Focus on something that inspired you or made you think differently about what public managers do to affect the way policies are implemented and, ultimately, the kind of world we live in.

Briefly describe what the speaker said and how it changed your understanding of the possibilities and/or the challenges of managing public policy.
How does your new understanding affect what you see as a challenge or a possibility in the area of your policy focus? The challenges and/or possibilities could be in the job of the public manager or could be in the content of the policy.

The speaker guest in my class is Irvine Chief of Police, David Maggard Jr.

What does it mean to “consecrate” a place?Explain.

 

It is important to be able to effectively incorporate your sources through direct quotation. For this activity, you will use Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address to practice writing an essay while effectively incorporating quotations to help support your discussion.

For this activity you will write a persuasive essay and address the following points:

  • What is a “proposition” in the sense that Lincoln uses it?
  • What does it mean to “consecrate” a place?
  • What is “hallowed” ground?
  • The Gettysburg Address is short, but very famous. Why do you think Lincoln kept it so short?
  • He was the President, he could have spoken longer, and most speakers that day in fact spoke much longer speeches. He wasn’t pressed for time. He had time to prepare. A long speech was expected of him.
  • So, why did Lincoln do what he did? (Hint: Where was he speaking and why? How did his “rhetorical situation” influence him?)
  • Do you see any correlations between Frederick Douglass’ “Escape from Slavery Douglass’ work and this work? If so, how do you see this occurring in the text? Be sure to quote from Douglass if you see a correlation.

Requirements:

  • Your written paper should be 3 pages in length not counting the required title and reference pages.
  • You must accurately insert a quote in your analysis to provide in-text evidence from the address, and you must comment on the quote to demonstrate you are thinking in a critical manner.
