ANCILLARY SERVICES – APA Citation Guidelines

In each module in this course, your assignments will build upon each other. For your SLP assignments you will be creating an extensive PowerPoint presentation (PPT).

Remember, you have been named the Administrative Director at Trident International Hospital (TIH) and will be presenting your PPT to the Board of Directors at TIH for approval. TIH is restructuring to meet the current needs of their consumers.

**** PLEASE NOTE!! ****

For your Module 2 assignment, the board has requested you to identify and recommend 3 ancillary services for TIH to better serve the population and boost revenue. You are to research current trends in ancillary services and add to your presentation 5 slides covering these services. In your new slides, you need to address/state the following:

1. Three chosen ancillary services
2. Identify the chosen ancillary service trends and/or rational for current popularity
3. Rationalize how your chosen ancillary services could boost revenue.

Your PPT should be professional and provide substantial information about your chosen ancillary services.

At this point (with the continuation of slides from Module 1 assignment), your total presentation should be at least 10-12 slides (not including the title and reference slide). Speaker notes are required.

Assignment Expectations

1. Conduct additional research to gather sufficient information to support your design of your department organization chart.
2. Limit your total PPT to a maximum of 12 slides.
3. Support your assignment with peer-reviewed articles, with at least 3-4 references. Use the following source for additional information on how to recognize peer-reviewed journals: http://www.angelo.edu/services/library/handouts/peerrev.php.

ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CLASS

Discussion Questions (DQ)

Initial responses to the DQ should address all components of the questions asked, include a minimum of one scholarly source, and be at least 250 words.
Successful responses are substantive (i.e., add something new to the discussion, engage others in the discussion, well-developed idea) and include at least one scholarly source.
One or two sentence responses, simple statements of agreement or “good post,” and responses that are off-topic will not count as substantive. Substantive responses should be at least 150 words.
I encourage you to incorporate the readings from the week (as applicable) into your responses.

Weekly Participation

Your initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count toward participation and are graded separately.
In addition to the DQ responses, you must post at least one reply to peers (or me) on three separate days, for a total of three replies.
Participation posts do not require a scholarly source/citation (unless you cite someone else’s work).
Part of your weekly participation includes viewing the weekly announcement and attesting to watching it in the comments. These announcements are made to ensure you understand everything that is due during the week.

APA Format and Writing Quality

Familiarize yourself with APA format and practice using it correctly. It is used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for APA paper templates, citation examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of APA format or absence of APA format (if required).
Cite all sources of information! When in doubt, cite the source. Paraphrasing also requires a citation.
I highly recommend using the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition.
