Assessment 4 Instructions: Analyzing a Current Health Care
Problem or Issue
Write a 4-6 page analysis of a current problem or issue in health care, including a proposed solution and possible
ethical implications.
Introduction
In your health care career, you will be confronted with many problems that demand a solution. By using research
skills, you can learn what others are doing and saying about similar problems. Then, you can analyze the problem
and the people and systems it affects. You can also examine potential solutions and their ramifications. This
assessment allows you to practice this approach with a real-world problem.
Instructions

sure to address each point. In addition, you are encouraged to review the performance-level descriptions for each
