Opportunity and Consumer Analysis

See the Prompt Attachment

Develop a comprehensive Opportunity and Consumer Analysis for The Los Angeles Rams and provide a thorough analysis of the existing marketing strategies and consumers, and determine an opportunity for greater consumer reach. Outline a brief 1-, 3-, and 5-year plan for the marketing opportunity.
Specifically, the following critical elements must be addressed:
I. Marketing Focus: Use the LA Rams as the focus of your analysis and address the following:
A. Explain in detail the role your selection plays in the greater sports industry and community. For example, if you chose a local high school field, explain what the field is used for, what sports relevance it holds in the area, what uses it has, who runs it, etc.
B. Identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats facing your selection and its form of marketing, using the provided SWOT template. These may vary greatly depending on your selection, but all selections will have SWOT considerations.
C. Expand upon and defend the potential benefit of one opportunity, identified in the SWOT matrix, for your selection.
D. Assess the extent to which the current marketing strategies are sufficient for reaching the currently intended demographic audience. What marketing strategies are currently being applied regarding your selection? Are they sufficient or insufficient for the current consumers of your selection?
E. Compare the media currently used to communicate with and market toward the current consumers in terms of their unique attributes and their success in reaching those consumers.
II. Consumer Analysis: Identify the primary consumers, customers, or followers of your selection, and the consumer audience you hope to reach with the new opportunity, and address the following:
A. Describe in detail the consumers you wish to better reach. Be sure to cover demographic information related to:
1. Location (local, national, international)
2. Economics
3. Culture
4. Race
5. Gender
6. Age
B. Analyze the behavior of the consumers you hope to reach. What are the primary motivations for these consumers? Explain.
C. Analyze the current political environment at the local, national, or international level for its impact on your selection. How is the political environment influencing your new audience?
D. Describe the social and cultural aspects that influence these consumers and illustrate your conclusions with examples.
E. Compare available media opportunities for reaching these consumers to identify aspects that may impact success with the new consumer audience. Which will be successful for communicating with and marketing toward the intended consumers? Explain.
III. Proven Strategies: Analyze sports teams, individuals, facilities, and organizations for successful marketing strategies.
A. Explain how a successful strategy was applied to a similar team, individual, facility, or organization as your selection at the same level (local, national, or international), using examples from the campaign to illustrate your claims.
B. Explain how a successful strategy was applied in a campaign aimed at a different level (local, national, or international) from your selection and opportunity, using examples from the campaign to illustrate your claims.
C. Assess how well each strategy would work for your purposes, using examples of their potential application for your intended opportunity.
D. Select and defend a third successfully used marketing strategy in terms of its relevance to your opportunity and its applicability to the intended consumers.
IV. One-, Three-, and Five-Year Plan: Describe how your selected strategy or strategies will be used over the next five years and how you will integrate specific media elements at each stage.
A. Illustrate a plan to apply the strategy you feel will be most successful for year 1, year 3, and year 5, explaining why you chose to apply this strategy in this way.
B. Define the media opportunities you will elect to use at each stage (1, 3, and 5) and explain why you are choosing to use these media opportunities in specific ways at each stage of the plan. Provide examples and reasoning.

Transitional care

Respond to the questions located in the Transitional Care Scenario. Read the information available in the Budget Considerations section and utilize this information as appropriate.

Use the attached Transition Care Scenario
1. What is the financial impact of this situation on the organization? Develop a short plan for how you would compensate for this situation.

2. What is the importance of an administrator understanding how private and government payers impact actual reimbursement (payment for services and methods of payment). From the perspective of an administrator in this scenario, why would monitoring reimbursement be so critical?

3. Is there a possibility of patient litigation surrounding this issue? How would you handle this situation?

ENDOCRINE CASE STUDY

    Thyroid hormones exert their effects on cells in a manner similar to steroid hormones; describe the mechanism of action of thyroid hormones.
    Why would an imbalance in thyroid hormones have such widespread effects on the body?
    Why was goiter observed in Georges case?
    Why would calcium homeostasis be impaired in response to removal of the thyroid gland?
    What could be used to specifically destroy the thyroid gland and have minimal effects on other cells and tissues in the body?

Case Study:

George is a thirty five year old hardware clerk. During his routine physical he casually mentions to his physician that he seems to be sweating more profusely than normal and most rooms that once were comfortable are now too “hot”. At home a room that his wife and children find to be comfortable causes him to sweat profusely. George also reports that he seems to be losing weight even though his appetite has increased. He also complains that he has a shortened attention span and that he always wants to be moving around. Despite the fact that he feels fatigued, George claims to have difficulty sleeping and seems to have more frequent bowel movements, occasionally accompanied by diarrhea. The physician discovers George has lost 15 pounds since his last physical. In checking his chart, the physician finds that George has a negative history for chronic illnesses, does not smoke, and has a low risk for cardiovascular disease. He does however have a positive family history for autoimmune diseases. His father suffers from idiopathic thrombocytopenia, his mother has been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and his oldest sister was recently diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus.

Results of George’s physical examination were within normal ranges with the exception of the following: he demonstrated tachycardia, loud heart sounds, and apparent cardiac arrhythmias accompanied by slight hypertension. These arrhythmias were confirmed by electrocardiogram to be supraventricular in origin. George’s eyeballs appeared large and protruding and his hair was fine and soft. He was also beginning to demonstrate some degree of alopecia. George was also observed to have palmar erythema. palpation of the neck revealed the presence of goiter. Results of blood tests indicated elevated concentrations of thyroid hormones (thyroxin and triiodothyronine), hypercalcemia, and decreased circulating concentrations of lipids. Based on the physical characteristics and the results of the blood tests, George’s physician suspected that George was suffering from some form of hyperthyroidism and sent him to an endocrinologist to confirm the initial diagnosis.

Following the initial consultation and examination, the endocrinologist ordered tests to determine whether George was indeed hyperthyroid. The test results indicated an elevation in the concentration of thyroid hormones in the blood and the presence of thyroid-stimulating antibodies. These antibodies specifically stimulate the thyroid gland by binding with the thyroid stimulating hormone receptor located on the plasma membrane of the follicular cells of the thyroid gland. Based on these results, the endocrinologist concluded that George had Grave’s disease, a form of hyperthyroidism believed to be autoimmune in nature. George was presented with a number of possible treatment options. These included treatment with chemicals (propylthiouracil and methimazole) that decrease the production of thyroid hormones by the thyroid gland, radioisotopic destruction of the thyroid gland by the use of 131I, and surgical removal of the thyroid gland. After considering all the options, especially the possible effects of radiation on gamete development, George chose surgery. Following successful surgery, George was prescribed synthetic thyroid hormone to ensure that his body was receiving adequate thyroid hormone and told to return within 2 months for a follow-up evaluation of circulating thyroid hormone concentrations. He was also cautioned to carefully monitor his calcium intake.

pathophysiology

In an APA essay – Complete all three of the following SherPath case studies: 1. Edema, 2. Pernicious Anemia, 3. Cardiovascular System Atherosclerosis

Edema-
Ms. Rand is a 65-year-old woman who spends most of her day sitting on her porch and recovering from a recent surgery involving the removal of suspected cancerous lymph glands in the inguinal area. She is now complaining that her shoes are fitting too tightly, and she has developed poorly healing sores on her legs and ankles. A closer examination also shows distention in her varicose veins. Blood tests reveal a low level of proteins in the plasma.

Based on the patient history and the signs and symptoms, identify the fluid imbalance the patient is experiencing, and state the rationale for your answer.
Discuss the four general causes of edema and how they apply in the case of this patient.
Discuss the swelling, sores, varicose vein distention, and other effects that edema can have on a patient.

Pernicious Anemia-
Mr. Alvis, age 57, presented to his physician with marked fatigue, nausea with occasional diarrhea, and a sore, swollen tongue. Lately he also has been experiencing a tingling feeling in his toes and a feeling of clumsiness. Microscopic examination of a blood sample indicated a reduced number of erythrocytes, many of which are megaloblasts, and a reduced number of leukocytes, including many large, hypersegmented cells. Hemoglobin and serum levels of vitamin B12 were below normal. Additional tests confirm pernicious anemia

Relate the pathophysiology of pernicious anemia to the manifestations listed above.
Discuss how the gastric abnormalities contribute to vitamin B12 and iron deficiency and how vitamin B12 deficiency causes complications associated with pernicious anemia.
Discuss other tests that could be performed to diagnose this type of anemia. Discuss the treatment available and the limitations.

Cardiovascular System Atherosclerosis-
Mr. Kelly is a 57-year-old man who consulted his physician after noticing marked leg pains while playing golf. He had previously noticed increasing fatigue and discomfort in his legs associated with moderate exercise. When sitting for extended periods with legs dangling, his legs became red, and sometimes his feet felt numb. His history indicates he smokes cigarettes and is chronically overweight. His blood cholesterol and other lipid levels are abnormal, and his physician suspects peripheral atherosclerosis as the cause of his discomfort.
