Graduate-level writing requires a detailed examination of different phenomena and situating them within the context of course concepts. Assignments differ from journals and discussion posts by formulating a broader and more comprehensive argument that offers a new scholarly or methodological perspective. Assignments must be approximately 3-4 pages in length with double-spaced, 12 pt. font, and 1-inch margins. The assignment must be formatted in the APA 7th edition format with a minimum of 5-10 sources that are cited both in-text and on the works cited page.

Prompt: Chapter 12 details five categories for structural reforms to combat implicit biases and promote fairness across different social institutions. Based on your understanding of each of the reforms, please answer both of the following questions.

1. Select one structural reform that is the most significant and relevant to your career field. Then, justify your selection. Why is that structural reform the most important? Why will addressing it be most beneficial for employees in that line of work? Make sure to support your assertions with the requisite number of scholarly sources.
2. Identify and explain one concrete policy change all companies in that field of work can implement that upholds all tenets of the structural reform you selected. Make sure to be as specific and detailed as possible in your description of the policy. Make sure to support your assertions with the requisite number of scholarly sources to create a detailed framework for the policy.

My practicum was done at Lenox Hill Hospital I was a unit coordinator in a cardiovascular united dealing with all types of patients. Then on some days I would float to the maternal unit.

This hospital has good views and I am grateful to have worked for them and I want to learn the people and was happy to use my skills with public health to manage this experience.

The whole text is ok, I don’t want any changes in it, but the text was written by AI. So the main point is to have the text as AI-free, because it will run through the unit in or on the platform like that, to check for any plagiarism or AI text in it.
