Health visiting is one of the aspects of the healthcare industry. The concept of health visiting began long ago during the time of Florence Nightingale in the 1800s (Adams, 2012). Health visitors have different roles compared to nurses. Their primary responsibilities include providing health education to promote health among infants, their families, and in the communities. Over the past century, the role of health visitors has evolved from addressing matters concerning sanitation and infectious diseases to addressing chronic illness concerns in people's homes and communities (Adams, 2012). Health visiting focuses on four main principles, which include influencing laws that affect people's health needs, stimulating their awareness of and search for health needs, and facilitating activities that enhance people's health (Adams, 2012). This essay focuses on how a health visitor can employ interpersonal and communication skills during a health visit to try and educate Sophia on her health needs and those of her child.

Davis has very low interpersonal skills, which is a drawback for an individual wishing to become a manager.

Expected completion time

Expected completion time is given by: a+4b+c6

Where a is the optimistic time, b is the most likely time and c is the pessimistic time.

Variance
Variance for each activity = :(c- a6)2

Network diagram

Activity 1→Activity 2 → Activity 5 → Activity 6 → Activity 7
Duration of the project = duration of the critical path = 80.5 days

Probability of completion within 40 days

Total variance for the project = 55.278
Standard deviation of the project = 55.278 = 7.435
Average completion time = 80.5 days

Probability of completing the project within 40 days:

X = 40
Z = 40-80.57.435 = -5.447
The Z-value above is less than -3.90 hence the p-value is zero. Therefore, the probability of completing the project within 40 days or less is zero (0).

I took the test at “My Personality Test” (www.my-personality-test.com) and according to the results my personality type is INTJ, which they explain as being driven by my own original ideas to achieve improvements.

First, “I” stands for introversion which the test describes as being independent, thoughtful and inwardly focused. I agree with this explanation. I am a rather reserved and private person who doesn’t particularly like being the center Continue reading...
