This is Tyler’s freshman year in college and he has been earning very good grades and performing well in his part-time job. However, Tyler’s eating habits have been poor and he has gained a few pounds, and his expanded waist line is making his trousers fit pretty tightly. His daily routine holds clues to his recent weight gain.

Tyler begins each morning about 9:00 a.m. when he hurriedly dresses and rushes to class without eating breakfast. He does however drink a 20-oz. cola each morning for caffeine and sugar energy. All day he sits in classes or studies in the library. About four in the afternoon, Tyler takes a break for some food and he usually heads to the food court and gets a large order of chicken wings with extra spicy hot sauce. He doesn’t have much time though, so he rushes through the meal, drinks another large cola, and is off to work. Tyler has a job as a waiter in a popular campus restaurant.

When the restaurant closes, Tyler heads home in his car. He usually stops to get some dinner, even though it is 11:30 p.m. He typically picks up a large pepperoni pizza that he consumes in one sitting. Sometimes, he follows the pizza with handfuls of cookies that he eats while lying down on the couch and watching late night television. Lately he finds it difficult to fall asleep though. Tyler has been experiencing heartburn and acid reflux at night. His stomach makes some atrocious noises and he’s been feeling bloated. Tyler has tried getting up and taking antacids, but he still suffers indigestion. Recently, a friend who has noticed Tyler’s odd stomach noises and hiccupping through class, suggested Tyler do something about his diet. At first he ignored the advice, but now his stomach pains are getting so bad he is willing to try anything.

After another painful night’s sleep, Tyler wakes up early, goes to the bakery, and buys two bran muffins for breakfast, thinking this is the start of his new healthy diet. To Tyler’s surprise this only makes him feel worse. He suffers horrible cramps, and later that day is forced to run to the bathroom with diarrhea. The worst part for Tyler was when he was sitting in English class and flatulence hit. Poor Tyler turned bright red and decided it was time to take the rest of the day off and go home.

When he got back to his room the phone rang. It was Tyler’s grandma. While on the phone with his grandmother, he mentioned that he was not feeling well. Grandma, who lived nearby, came over with chicken noodle soup made with carrots and celery and lots of broth. The two had a leisurely meal together, sitting and talking at the table for hours. Tyler ate one small bowl of soup and placed the leftovers in the refrigerator or later. Tyler then got a good night sleep, and woke up the next day feeling much better. Once again, his face-paced lifestyle plunged him back into previous eating patterns. On the way to his first morning class Tyler was drinking a 20-oz. cola.

Please visit WebMD at to research Tyler’s gastrointestinal symptoms and one or more diseases that might be applicable for those symptoms now or in the future:

In your initial post, please discuss the following:

  • What were Tyler’s symptoms and what could be wrong with him? (Identify only one digestive disease.)
  • After adding bran muffins to his diet, Tyler only felt worse. Why was that?
  • After Tyler’s grandma visited and they ate some chicken soup together, Tyler felt much better. Why?
  • Tyler experiences the unpleasant and embarrassing consequence of poor nutrition while in English class. This only adds to the already high stress in Tyler’s life. What was the cause of this and how can Tyler cure this problem in the future?

Hi, need to submit a 1500 words essay on the topic Chapter 11 & 12 Review Questions and Bank of America CRM System.

The third motivation is the need for integration of all processes of a business in order to create value to stakeholders and customers. Another motivation is the need to save costs incurred in products or services provision processes. Also, it is extremely significant to offer goods and services of high quality to esteemed customers. Therefore, the motivation for quality assurance drives an organization to adopt a good supply chain management system. Besides, every company aims at satisfying the desires of its customers. It is this motivation for customer satisfaction that encourages an organization to take initiatives for managing the various components of supply chain and logistics (Lambert, D. M., & Supply Chain Management Institute.2008).

You have recently been promoted to Health Services Manager at Three Mountains Regional Hospital, a small hospital located in a mid-size city in the Midwest. Three Mountains is a general medical and surgical facility with 400 beds. Last year there were approximately 62,000 emergency visits and 15,000 admissions. More than 6,000 outpatient and 10,000 inpatient surgeries were performed.

An important aspect of the provider/patient relationship pertains to open communication and trust. Patients want to know that their doctors and the support staff associated with their care understand their wishes and will abide by them. Ideally, these conversations happen well before an emergency or procedure takes place; however, often times this information is missing from a patient’s file. As part of Three Mountains’ initiative to build trust with their patients, an increased emphasis has been placed on obtaining living wills from the patient as part of the intake process to ensure that the healthcare team has written directives of the patient’s wishes in case of incapacitation. You will be creating a living will for a patient and provide educational information as to why the patient should fill it out during the admission process before a procedure.

1.  Introduction: Explain the definition of a living will and its key components. This section will provide an educational overview of the document for the patient.

2.  Living Will Template: Create a living will that can serve as a template to the patients. This should cover the basic treatment issues such as resuscitation, feeding tubes, ventilation, organ and tissue donations, etc. Provide instructions in the template that can be easily altered, depending on each patient’s wishes.

3.  Summary: In this section, you will discuss the importance of this document and encourage patients to complete it. Address how this document ensures that a patient’s wishes are known and followed by the healthcare team.

NOTE – APA formatting and proper grammar, punctuation, and form required. APA help is available here.
