This is related to question 1, but rather than looking at a dialect spoken in the UK you should
focus on the grammar of Hong Kong English. Describing the grammar of this variety as whole
will be too much, so you should concentrate on a number of features and describe them in some
detail. The basis of your essay may be existing descriptions of Hong Kong English grammar, e.g
Gisborne (2000/2002, 2009), Wong (2009). In addition to using these scholarly works, you may
wish to devise a questionnaire related to the features youre interested in, and distribute this
among your friends and family. If you do, please bear in mind that in order to get reliable results
you need at least 30 participants.
If you prefer to work not on Hong Kong English but on some other regional variety, you
may adapt this question for that variety as well. For work on various British English dialects see
e.g. Beal & Corrigan (2002, 2005), Hollmann (2013a), Hollmann & Siewierska (2006, 2007,
2011), , Hughes et al. (2005), Kortmann (2004), Kortmann et al. (2005), Milroy & Milroy (1993),
Siewierska & Hollmann (2007), Tagliamonte (1998), Tagliamonte & Lawrence (2000), Trudgill
and Chambers (1991).

Project description
Cultural beliefs may inadvertently lead to miscommunication with caregivers. There are cases where Asian medical treatment, often referred to as Eastern or alternative medicine, may be used as alternatives or complements to Western care. If there are not well-trained staff and good professional relationships, distrust and ultimately inappropriate treatment may result.

Some Asian medical treatments administered by family members or healers leave welts that are difficult to distinguish from bruises left by beatings. This practice has been the source of much misunderstanding between Asian parents who have recently immigrated to the United States and health providers who come into contact with their children. Working relationships between health care professionals and families are strained when accusations of abuse are reported to local child welfare authorities, as mandated by law. At this point, communications often break down entirely.

Consider this scenario. You are part of the community outreach committee in your local hospital system, which provides health and mental health services for children through older adults in both inpatient and outpatient settings. There are a growing number of concerns about cultural miscommunications between providers and your Asian patients. These concerns are being raised by both families and the health professionals working with them. Your committee has been tasked with evaluating the cultural diversity policies in place and how they influence open communication with the Asian community. Specifically, your group must come up with a way to address the clash between alternative treatments and hospital policies. In this context, discuss the following:

By law, health care providers are mandated reporters and must report any signs of suspected abuse. Do you believe that existing policies need to be modified to accommodate different treatment systems? As a health care manager, what modifications would you recommend? Please justify your response with well-reasoned arguments.
Knowing of this cultural phenomenon and the laws governing you, how would you address this with the clinician, the clinical team, the investigator, and the family? What sort of communication plan would you put into place?

Pitfalls of Health Information Technology
In the event of implementing a new health information technology resource (HIT), nurses should be involved at each stage of the development life cycle. With nurses being the general end user of HIT systems, nursing involvement is crucial to compliance and acceptance of new systems. As it is well known, nurses fight change, but by using nursing input the change can become better welcomed and utilized.
Health Information Technology Implementation Stages
When implementing a new HIT system there are several models from which to select. The Dynamic System Development Method (DSDM) encourages user input and involvement with system development (McGonigle, 2015). The project change involves preproject, project life cycle, and postproject development. In the preproject phase, the need for change is expressed and the organizational need for change is presented. Funding is ascertained and support from administration and the end users (nurses) is established. Without support from nursing at this stage can quickly kill a project or cause resistance to the proposed change. The proposed change must appear as perceived usefulness, where the end users must see the new system as necessary before becoming more accepting of the system (Hsiao, 2011).
The next phase includes the project life cycle. Within the project life cycle we find the five steps of feasibility, business studies, functional model iteration, design and build iteration, and implementation (McGonigle, 2015). For feasibility and business studies we explore of the business needs and risks involved for the proposed change. By not obtaining nursing input at this part can again hamper the desired change as if it is not perceived as necessary, nurses will not be as accepting as there is already a system in place that works. Planning at the early stages to the ideal of \”Must have, Should have, Could have, and Would have\” (MoSCoW) will increase nursing participation and perceived usefulness (McGonigle, 2015).
The third stage involves functional model iteration, where without nursing input can again fail. During this stage continual effort is made toward the needs within the project before the propose change occurs. Nursing input is highly needed at this point, as nursing is the end user of the change. The project must be compatible between the system and the end users values, needs, and experience (Hsiao, 2011).
The fourth stage of design and build iteration involves testing of the project. During this stage fine tuning of the project is made as the change is implemented. Again nursing is the end users of the change, and if the system does not live up to the standards of the end users, the system can fail. Nursing input at this level will need to be addressed, the project must prove to be of greater usefulness to complete specific tasks to gain desire and acceptance of the proposed project change (Hsiao, 2011).
In the final stage of implementation, training is key to successful transitioning. Nursing has the final say so to project success, without full support the project will experience increased errors and resistance to change. Proper training and care must be used to facilitate a smooth transition to the change. The goals of both the business and end users must match in order for a large scale project change, such as a HIT system, to work.
