This means that even though the University deemed it necessary for a student like Helen to disclose her incident of victimization, she still opted to keep her privacy, preferring confidentiality and anonymity in order to protect herself from being involved in a sensitive issue such as sexual harassment. Helen's actions may be construed as her own way of avoiding the stigma that inevitably results out of her being a victim of sexual harassment.
Options
Evidently, Helen had valued her privacy greater than following University rules concerning disclosure. Her action is understandable: in most of the extant organizations' Code of Ethics, the welfare of the patient/client is foremost than the issues of disclosure. Thus, the preferred course of action in Helen's case is to agree with her decision to seek student counseling. The University could try to convince Helen to disclose the details of her victimization, but the University must ensure her that she would be disclosing on the condition that her privacy would not be invaded -- that is, her identity would be concealed and the details of her case remain confidential unless necessary (e.g., discussing and...
However, should Helen decide to refuse to reveal her case, the University must respect her decision. Also, her counselor would be duty-bound to Helen, not the University, to help Helen get over the ordeal she had just dealt and will be dealing with.
Conclusions
From Helen's case, it is evident that her welfare must be considered first above anything else. Maintaining her privacy and if possible, keeping her identity anonymous and case confidential (if she requests these) are the most effective ways in which she will be able to deal with her problem.
Recommendations
It is thus recommended that the University must ensure Helen that her privacy would not be invaded, should it pursue to convince her to disclose the details of her victimization. The University can argue that her case would help the institution deal effectively and justly to future incidences of sexual harassment and be able to provide Helen with the justice that she deserves, having been unfairly taken advantage by another individual under the University's authority.

Critical Thinking Case Study Faith Community Hospital is a not-for-profit health care services organization that is currently facing a situation, which may compel it to resort to stringent cost cutting measures just to break even, and that too providing the average reimbursement rate does not change.

(Donoghue, 1990) The other problem is regarding third party reimbursements and state regulators which have had a significant effect on hospitals during the last ten years. Another factor that is brought out by the study is that during both 1983 and 1986 there were important variations in the inpatient reimbursement system that helped in improving the operating and final margins of hospitals. At the same time there are the health
SWOT of King Edward Hospital NHS Trust. The trust had already developed benchmarking practices to evaluation of its hospital' systems, so that data germane to the new initiative was supported by an existing pilot, Hospital Emergency Care Collaborative (HECC), a target study of discharge procedure, and particularly informative to interpretation to the delineation of points where 'value' disappeared during the course of the patient journey. As a 'transfer initiative' modeled
Organizational Change and Development at Valley Wide Utilities Company Developed by management expert Peter Drucker in the mid-20th century, management by objective (MBO) has demonstrated efficacy in a wide range of organizational settings (Allvin and Aronsson 2011).
