Cultural Communication
The American workplace can be very diverse, composed of people of different genders, races, ethnicities, and religions all working together. In fact, the United States is oftentimes considered to have some of the most culturally diverse workplaces. To help you with this discussion, review the National Culture (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. webpage to read about Professor Geert Hofstede’s research into the six dimensions of national cultures. Next, visit the Countries (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. webpage to look at how the dimensions of national culture in the United States compare to those of other countries. The multi-cultural workplace provides a lot of benefits through diverse viewpoints and experiences that are brought to the table. However, it can also present us with unique workplace challenges, particularly in regard to cross-cultural communication. In order to understand more about how miscommunications can happen in cross-cultural interactions, please also watch the Intercultural Communication Adventure with Little Pilot (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. video and read Cultural Communication Barriers in the Workplace (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site..Based on the websites, video, and article, please address the following: On Hofstede’s Courtries webpage, select a country of your choice and compare it to the United States on three of the six dimensions of national cultures. For each of those three dimensions chosen, answer the following questions:
How is the dimension defined? Why is this dimension useful to understanding the country culture? How does your country compare to the U.S. on this dimension?
Describe an experience you have had involving cross-cultural communication.
What tools did you use to navigate your cross-cultural interaction?
Did you confront any misunderstandings due to the cross-cultural nature of the communication? If so, what where they? If not, how were you able to avoid any misunderstandings?
What two techniques or skills do you think would help reduce cross-cultural communication misunderstandings in the workplace?

Nuclear medicine
Nuclear medicine is a specialized branch of modern medicine that exploits the process of radioactivity for imaging, diagnosis, and treatment. Many imaging techniques inject small amounts of radioactive material into the body, which are then tracked by a sensing device specific to the type of radiation emitted from that material. Radiation has also been used to destroy diseased tissue, typically beyond the reach of standard surgical techniques.
Using the readings for this module, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet, write a paper on nuclear medicine. Address the following:
- Explain the scientific and technical concepts related to nuclear medicine. Consider the following questions when you construct your response:
- What type of radiation is typically exploited in most nuclear medicine procedures?
- How are patients prepared for nuclear medicine procedures?
- What are the advantages and limitations of nuclear medicine?
- What ailments are typically diagnosed and treated via nuclear medicine procedures?
- Evaluate a minimum of three applications of nuclear medicine relating to any of the following topics:
- Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans
- Gallium scans
- Indium white blood cell scans
- Iobenguane scans (MIBG)
- Octreotide scans
- Hybrid scanning techniques employing X-ray computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
- Nuclear medicine therapy using radiopharmaceuticals
Support your statements with examples. Provide a minimum of three scholarly references.

Assessment
1. There is strong evidence that by focusing on prevention, a health promotion program reduces the costs (both financial and human) that individuals, employers, families, insurance companies, medical facilities, communities, the state, and the nation would spend on medical treatment. Please describe how the focus on prevention enables local communities, for example, to save money or reduce costs? Your response should be at least 200 words in length.
2. Health inequalities arise from the societal conditions in which people are born, grow, live, work, and age.

Your response should be at least 200 words in length.
3. People’s dietary choices are shaped by various social and cultural factors. Additionally, people’s ideas about what constitutes a good or acceptable meal differ. Religion also plays a role in the choices and subsequent selection of foods consumed in certain societies. What role does nutrition and the proper education and promotion about it play in chronic disease prevention? Also, whose responsibility is it to educate individuals on healthy food choices? Is it family, school, or the government? Your response should be at least 200 words in length.
4. According to your textbook, youth violence is a very serious problem. Please note that there are certain risk factors that are leading to violent behavior in our youth.
