For this week’s assignment, assume that you are the HR manager in a medium-sized hospital. One of the managers in the Radiology department has come to you for advice on selecting the best candidate for a position. The situation as described to you:
Job analysis, job competencies, and job descriptions form critical elements of employee recruiting, selection, and organizational staffing. We must understand the job, know its nature, and describe its competencies before we can announce the position and attract quality applicants. To get to this point, the HR professional must have the skills to conduct research, including employee and supervisor interviews. These interviews will contain valuable real-life information that will describe the job to be advertised and filled. For this assignment, you will be assisting our senior HR professional Kimberly by developing a position description.
Your Challenge
Use O*Net Online to develop a job description and competencies for any job of your choosing. The job should have five to seven competencies. Your job description and competency model should follow this example of a medical job description for a Physician Assistant:

Prepare a 1–2-page job description and competency model that follows the example given. Use O*Net Online to select the job you will describe, and include the following:
Provide a description that includes knowledge of the content information and expertise associated with the work.
Analyze what someone in this job would need to know and be able to do.
Create descriptions of work activities that match the context of the work.
Are the job elements described?

My assignment is on PANIC DISORDER AND I WILL DO THE PRESENTATION.
I lived in Maryland do not worry about the presentation part I will do it after the 2 page paper work is done. Thanks.
I will do the presentation part, please do the other part of written paper
For reference is the title of the book we are using. Rosenthal, L. & Burchum, J. (2021). Lehne’s pharmacotherapeutics for advanced practice nurses and physician assistants
Think about this in relationship to your own community.
In your post of 150 to 175 words:
First, identify a “vulnerable population” in your community and list several factors that might play a role in making them vulnerable or at risk. For example, you might identify what resources they lack access to and how this increases risk for certain negative outcomes. Explain how their surroundings serve as barriers to healthy behaviors/lifestyles or increase the incidence of risk behaviors. Then, reflect upon how vulnerable groups are viewed or treated in your community, and how community members’ own values play a role in how one views, treats or responds to members of vulnerable groups. Do you think this adds another challenge to a community’s willingness to prioritize services for vulnerable populations.
Requirements: 150 words
Note:
I live in Fort Myers Florida, sanitation here is okay
In my community the uninsured have been shown to be vulnerable to health care access and quality, specially in the dental field (I am a dental hygienist) Most people that do not have insurance and indeed have severe dental problems including infection, and severe bone loss can sometimes not afford the cost for treatment.
My community can also relate to how many people with mental illness due to the COVID pandemic, if we want to keep the same topic
