    An APA reference is required for each discussion, at the end of the discussion. include at least one reference and at least one intext citation for each reference used review the scenario, The Court Was Appalled In Tomcik v. Ohio Dept of Rehabilitation & Correction,20 the plaintiff, Janet Tomcik, was in the custody of the defendant, a penal institution. As part of the institutions policy of medically evaluating all new inmates, on May 26, 1989, Dr Evans gave Tomcik a medical examination. He testified that his physical evaluation included an examination of Tomciks breasts; however, he stated that his examination was very cursory. The day after her examination, Tomcik examined her own breasts. At that time, she discovered a lump in her right breast, which she characterized as being about the size of a pea. She then sought an additional medical evaluation at the defendants medical clinic. Testimony indicated that fewer than half of the inmates who sign the clinic list are actually seen by medical personnel the next day. Also, inmates who are not examined on the day for which the list is signed are given no preference in being examined on the following day. In fact, their names are simply deleted from the daily list, and their only recourse is to continually sign the list until they are examined. The evidence indicated that from May 27 on, Tomcik constantly signed the clinic list and provided the reason she was requesting medical care. A nurse finally examined Tomcik on June 21. The nurse wrote in her nursing notes that Tomcik had a moderate large mass in right breast”. The nurse recognized that the proper procedure was to measure such a mass, but she testified that this was impossible because no measuring device was available. The missing measuring device to which she alluded was a simple ruler. The nurse concluded that Evans, the original doctor who had examined Tomcik, should examine her again. On June 28, Evans examined Tomcik again. He recorded in the progress notes that she had a mass on her right wrist Will send her to hospital and give her Benadryl for allergy she has. Evans meant to write breast, not wrist He again failed to measure the size of the mass on Tomciks breast. Tomcik was transferred to the Franklin County Prerelease Center on September 28. On September 30, a nurse there examined Tomcik; the nurse recorded that she had a golf ballsized lump in her right breast. Tomcik was transported to the hospital on October 27, where Dr Walker treated her. A mammogram indicated that Tomciks tumor was probably malignant. This diagnosis was confirmed by a biopsy performed on November 9. Tomcik was released from confinement on November 13. On November 16, Dr Lidsky, a surgeon employed outside of the penal institution, examined Tomcik Lidsky noted the existence of the lump in her breast and determined that the size of the mass was approximately 4 to 5 centimeters and somewhat fixed. He performed a modified radical mastectomy on the plaintiffs right breast, removing nearly the entire breast. Tomcik alleged that it was the delay in her examination that ultimately led to the removal of her right breast; had she been seen in a more-timely manner, much of the breast could have been spared. The corrections department, in its defense, contended that even if its employees were negligent, Tomciks cancer was so advanced when discovered that it would nevertheless have required removal of her breast. The Ohio Court of Appeals held that the delay in providing treatment to Tomcik fell below the medically acceptable standard of care. The court was appalled that the physician had characterized his evaluation as a medical examination, and that what he described as a cursory breast examination should be considered medically sufficient. It seemed incredible to the court that a physician would deliberately choose not to take the additional few minutes or seconds, to palpate thoroughly the sides of the breasts, which is a standard minimally intrusive cancer detection technique. As a direct and proximate result of the defendant’s negligence, the plaintiff suffered damages including physical pain, emotional suffering, cosmetic disfigurement and permanent damage. Furthermore, her life expectancy has been reduced by approximately fifteen percent. Therefore, the court finds plaintiff’s total damages to be $85,000.

    Touchstone 2.2: Informative Comparison/Contrast Draft

    SCENARIO: Imagine that your workplace has experienced significant change recently, and your department is expected to respond to change with innovation. Your immediate manager has asked you to determine one specific innovation for your department; you will be responsible for the implementation of this innovation.

    Your manager has asked you to first create an informative report in which you explore how this innovation might be implemented. Once they approve or provide feedback on this, they would like you to create a recommendation report for the department manager.

    ASSIGNMENT: You must create an informative report in which you identify the innovation that you would like to implement, and then compare and contrast two possible methods of implementation for the innovation. For example, if the innovation is implementing a new inventory database, your essay might compare and contrast two inventory management software products. This report should not include a recommendation, but instead should be strictly informative, offering a detailed comparison.

    The purpose of informative writing is to convey information. Informative writing is unbiased, and the goal is to present concepts and research objectively. Specifically, you will research several methods for implementing your chosen innovation, ultimately focusing on two of them. In your report, you will compare and contrast two of these methods based on two or three factors that you choose (e.g., cost, technology requirements, accessibility, etc.). Your audience for this assignment is your supervisor.

    Remember that for this report, you are not trying to persuade or convince the audience that one method is better or worse than the other; you are instead informing the reader about the similarities or differences between the two methods in an objective manner.

    A. Assignment Guidelines

    DIRECTIONS: Draft double-spaced, 3-4-page (750-1000 words) informative comparison/contract report in which you:

    Include an introduction that informs readers of the problem to be solved and the innovation that you have proposed.

    The introduction should end with a thesis statement that conveys the two methods of implementation you will be comparing and contrasting, as well as the 2-3 factors of comparison/contrast that you will be discussing.

    For example, if the innovation youd like to implement is more rapid communication between teams, you could discuss two different instant messaging tools that the company could implement and compare/contrast them through the lenses of cost, usability, and efficiency.

    Include 4-6 body paragraphs organized according to either the point-by-point or block method for comparison/contrast writing, which you learned about in this unit.

    Using APA format, cite and reference 2-4 credible primary or secondary sources that you used to learn about these methods of implementation and the points of comparison/contrast you chose. Referencing more than four sources will result in a delay in grading.

    Include at least two specific, verifiable quotations (cited with accurate page/paragraph numbers).

    End with a concluding paragraph that restates your thesis in different words and provides a closing thought.

    Write in the informative mode throughout the composition, using objective language.

    Minimize mechanical and stylistic errors.

    Answer the reflection questions listed below.

    NOTE: If your sources or direct quotations are not verifiable for authenticity (working link, author/title/publication information match, locatable quotation) by a grader, your Touchstone score will be negatively impacted (see the “Research” component in the rubric).

    B. Reflection Questions

    DIRECTIONS: Below your assignment, include answers to all of the following reflection questions.

    Did you use the point-by-point or block method to organize your body paragraphs? What made you decide to organize your essay in this way? (3-4 sentences)

    Consider the experience of writing in the informative mode. How was this different from other writing assignments you have done? Did you find it difficult to refrain from providing your opinion on the different methods you explored? (2-3 sentences)

    How did you use technology throughout this process, both in writing your report and finding sources? (2-3 sentences)

    Remember that the writing process is a recursive process, and your first draft of an essay is rarely your last. Which part of the draft did you struggle with the most, and why? Since you will be revising this Touchstone in the next unit, think about how you can improve the draft once you continue the writing process with revision and editing. (3-4 sentences)

    IMPORTANT: Follow the first essay (attached) in order to fulfill this assignment. This essay cannot be from scratch; it must have flow and thought from the initial essay I have provided.
