Under the Final Paper tab in this classroom, determine which case you will be researching for your Annotated Bibliography . Provide a description of the case you will be researching. Then, find at least six scholarly sources that are connected with the ethical dilemma and/or case-related content that you will be using to complete your Final Paper. Provide an annotated bibliography of these six (or more) sources.

Your annotated bibliography must contain the following elements (and possibly more):
•APA-formatted citations
•A description of the article:
•What does it address?
•What were the outcomes or conclusions?
•How does this apply to your case study analysis?
•Does it provide insights into an ethical concept?
•Is it a similar case to the one you are analyzing?
•Does it offer suggestions from best practices in ethical decision making?

Your paper should be at least two pages in length, excluding title and reference pages, and formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Visit the Ashford Writing Center and view this Sample Annotated Bibliography for an example of correct annotated bibliography form.].

This is the scenario I have chosen:

Scenario No. 1: HIPAA Privacy Rule
Case Study: Imagine that you are the privacy officer for a small town hospital. You receive a report that there is a breach of privacy. You are informed that a 15-year-old girl is received at the emergency with an emergency labor. The baby is delivered in the emergency room as there is no time to move the patient to the obstetrics (OB) department. In addition to the emergency delivery, the baby is born with multiple medical problems. Once the mother and baby are moved to obstetrics and neonate, care is given to both.

The OB nurse who took care of the mother and baby completes her shift, and she goes home to her own daughter to have a talk with her. She sits her daughter down and pleads with the girl to tell her if she ever has any problems, especially when it comes to pregnancy. The nurse tells her daughter the story about the young patient who delivered that evening, and she accidentally mentions the patient’s name. The patient’s name is one of those odd names that immediately triggers the nurse’s daughter to relay that she knows the patient. The mother/nurse, realizing that she made a big mistake by mentioning the patient’s name, pleads with her daughter not to say anything. Needless to say, word shoots through the four high schools in the town the next day.

The nurse returns to work the following evening, and she contacts you to hand in her badge and keys, stating that she knows she made a mistake by breaching the young patient’s privacy and she knows she is going to be fired. In addition to the breach of the obstetrics nurse, you learn that the patient hid her pregnancy from her family, and to make matters worse, her aunt and mother are both nurses at the hospital. You know both of these nurses on a professional and personal level.

Scenario No. 1 HIPAA Privacy Rule Project Assignment:
Research the HIPAA Privacy Rule here:

U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. (2002). Standards for privacy of individually identifiable health information; Final Rule. Federal Register, 67(157), 53182-53273. Retrieved from https://www.hhs.gov/ocr/privacy/hipaa/administrative/privacyrule/privrulepd.pdf

Then, perform additional research regarding the HIPAA Privacy Rule and prepare your Final Paper by analyzing the issues through these questions in regards to the above scenario: •Analyze the specific requirements needed to perform this investigation.
•Identify whether this incident was an actual breach of privacy according to the HIPAA law.
•Examine the differences and similarities between the hospital’s stance and HIPAA as to whether the nurse should be fired from her job.
•Explain why you would fire or not fire the nurse immediately or whether you would put her on administrative leave awaiting the details of the investigation.

RESOURCES: THE RESOURCES MUST NOT BE ANY OLDER THAN 5 YEARS.

The question is
Is there an association between time spent viewing violent video games and incidences of violence in the adolescent child?

Craft a research question on the topic you selected in your first discussion question post. Then locate at least five articles from peer-reviewed journals that pertain to your question that will be used to write the introduction section of your research proposal.

Submit these five citations in the form of an APA-style reference page. Under each citation, write one paragraph summarizing the main points of the article. As you read your articles, keep the following questions at hand; these will help you generate the information about each article.
•What were the topic/research questions being investigated?

•How was the study conducted (participants, materials, procedure, etc.)?

•What did the results reveal?

•How might these methodological considerations affect the research findings and the conclusions drawn from them?

•How does this article fit in with your paper? How did it influence your own ideas about your paper?

Based on your reading of the literature, what do you expect to find?

Include a hypothesis and a title page for your submission.

Submit your paper to the M1: Assignment 3 Dropbox by Wednesday, June 15, 2016. All written assignments and responses should follow APA rules for attributing sources.
