Overview
You have been hired as a consultant by a large hospital chain. As part of its expansion plan, the organization wants to open a new hospital in a small- to medium-sized town (with a population of 10,000–50,000). Previously, senior management hired a market research firm to do an initial feasibility analysis. The firm presented the management team with two options:
Option A: Open a small facility of 90–100 beds.
Option B: Open a medium-sized facility of 300–350 beds.
The hospital’s vice president of operations and finance has tasked you with doing an in-depth analysis to determine which of the two options will be the most profitable, given the expense range of $55–$75 million. The hospital has provided you with a data set that contains data about admissions, personnel, and hospital beds, and attributes of the data such as outpatient visits, births, total expense, and census information.
PromptPart 1: Data Analysis Workbook
Analyze the data from the provided Hospital Data Set (linked below) and identify current and future trends and patterns in operations.
Descriptive Analysis: Open a new Excel file and title it Data Analysis Workbook. In the workbook, create a sheet titled P1_Descriptive Analysis. Present descriptive statistics (mean, median, standard deviation, and range) in a table for four attributes from the data set.
Analyze the current hospital data to identify trends and patterns in hospital admissions and costs.
Outliers: Identify any outliers that you see and explain how they have an impact on the overall admission and expense trends. Outliers are the data points that can have an impact on your averages and basic descriptive analysis.
Identify future trends and attributes that impact expenses and admissions by adding new sheets to your Data Analysis Workbook per the descriptions below.
Perform two bivariate regressions to provide recommendations.
For the first bivariate regression, the dependent variable should be Total Expense. Choose an independent variable from one of the remaining attributes.
Create a sheet titled P2_1st_Bivariate_Regression in your Data Analysis Workbook.
For the second bivariate regression, the dependent variable should be Admissions. Choose an independent variable from one of the remaining variables.
Create a sheet titled P2_2nd_Bivariate_Regression in your Data Analysis Workbook.
What would be the right attribute size (independent variable) seems most appropriate to lead you in the expense range of $55–$75 million?
Perform two multivariate regressions to provide recommendations.
For the first multivariate regression, the dependent variable should be Total Expense (the column in the data set). Choose two independent variables from one of the remaining attributes.
Within your Data Analysis Workbook, create a sheet titled P2_1st_Multi_Regression.
Which combination of the attributes seems most appropriate to lead you in the expense range of $55–$75 million?
For the second multivariate regression, the dependent variable should be Admissions (the column name in the data set). You should choose two independent variables from one of the remaining attributes.
Within your Data Analysis Workbook, create a sheet titled P2_2nd_Multi_Regression.
Which combination of the attributes would seem appropriate that would lead you in the expense range of $55–$75 million?
Part 2: Final Recommendation Analysis PowerPoint Presentation
Create a presentation designed for senior management and the board of directors to share the results of your analysis and provide your final recommendation.
Guidelines for Submission
To complete this project, you must submit the following:
Supporting Materials
The following resources support your work on the project:
The course project is a scenario-based case study, which will be due in Unit VIII. A scenario-based case study is similar to other case studies you may have experienced. The scenario-based case study used in this course provides descriptive information and data to help you make decisions as if you were actively participating in a real-life investigation of a warehouse fire. There are eight assignments for the scenario-based case study (one per unit). You will complete and submit Part 1, Sections I and II of the course project in this unit. Use APA level one headings for each section. The heading should be indicative of the major section to follow. Here is a tutorial on level headings.For the course project, you will utilize what you learn throughout the course to solve a real-world problem of what fire protection is needed to create plausible actions, concepts, or inventions to solve fire protection deficiencies that resulted in a large-scale fire in a warehouse distribution center.From Unit I through Unit VII, you will complete one part of your recommendation in each unit, and in Unit VIII, you will write an executive summary and conclusion. You will then compile all parts into one document as your final project. You can arrange each part in any order you would like before submitting the final project. For instance, this assignment about fire pumps is covered in Chapter 6 of the textbook; however, you may choose to cover fire protection, detection, and suppression systems (completed in Unit II) as the first part of your final project and to place fire pumps after another topic of your choice. You are able to organize the final report sections in any order that makes logical sense to you.During each part, you will prepare a well-organized narrative consisting of two sections. Only submit the assignment for that unit until the final case study is compiled from all units and submitted as a single document in Unit VIII. However, you should evaluate and revise the recommendations as needed during the process for each previous unit as you learn more during the progression of this course.This scenario-based case study is designed to draw upon your imagination to think creatively on potential concerns with fire and explosive hazards, fire controls, and fire and emergency management. You should look at fire protection technology in a holistic way. This way of design thinking is significantly different from what was previously designed by thinking in isolation. You will evaluate and develop recommendations to resolve potential fires in the future.Please click here to view the background information of the scenario.Through the scenario-based case study process, you will begin developing a tool that will synchronize suggestions to improve life safety. You will accomplish this by utilizing recommendations to improve fire protection after a warehouse distribution center fire.Section ISection I will address the foreign-made fire pump and your recommendations after reviewing the background information.Your narrative will consist of your evaluation of the foreign-made fire pump and your choice of fire pump that you would recommend for the rebuild of the warehouse. The background information will provide you the needed material to identify the basic components common to fire protection for the City of Washington Distribution Warehouse. As you review the material, make sure you do the following actions:
examine what contributed to the fire,
analyze building components and existing fire suppression systems, and
prepare and disseminate recommendations.
Fire protection design involves an integrated approach where designers need to analyze the building’s use, occupancy, footprint, and existing fire protection systems or components. This assignment is not looking for compliance with building codes nor expecting you to be a fire protection system designer. However, the purpose of this assignment is for you to apply the concepts and knowledge you learned in this unit as you begin writing your final project covering protection systems that will detect, contain, control, and extinguish a fire. In addition, this assignment provides you with the opportunity to use your skills, expertise, and experience to enrich your response.Section IISection II will address the ethical dilemma of using the foreign-made fire pump, as described in the Points to Ponder Scenario within this unit, as a right versus right action or a right versus wrong action.As we saw in the unit lesson, Kidder (1995) described four basic paradigms that deal with most ethical dilemmas of right versus right choices. He believed ethical decisions often involve choices of the individual versus community, truth versus loyalty, short-term versus long-term, and justice versus mercy. Pick one of the paradigms below, and answer the question.
Is it right to use the foreign-made fire pump because others were not available in order to provide fire protection so the warehouse could re-open and the workers could go back to work? -OR-
Do you believe using the fire pump dilemma was a right versus wrong action based on your own values, professional ethics, and institutional values?
For this assignment, you will write a two-page narrative (one page per section) supporting your positions. You must have a title page and references page. An abstract is not required. You may use information from reputable, reliable journal articles, case studies, scholarly papers, and other sources that you feel are pertinent. You should use at least three sources, one of which must be your textbook. All sources used, including the textbook, must be referenced; paraphrased and quoted material must have accompanying citations following proper APA style
CLICK HERE TO MAKE YOUR ORDER The scenario-based case study used in this course provides descriptive information and data to help you make decisions as if you were actively participating in a real-life investigation of a warehouse fire

Data Analysis: Descriptive Statistics and Assumption Testing
Statistics involves the process of collection, analysis, interpretation, presentation, and data organization in a way that can be understood by its users. Statistical analyses are divided into two broad categories: the inferential and descriptive statistics (Verma & Abdel-Salam, 2019). Descriptive statistics consists of the methods of data representation that calculates descriptive figures and summary graphs or both. The Sun Coast Remediation data was analyzed and presented using descriptive statistics with the interpretations to ascertain whether parametric statistical procedures were met.

Measurement scale
The frequency distribution tables provide a means of ascertaining the measurement scales in which the data was measured. An analysis of the variables used in data (sick days) revealed that the measurement scale used is ratio scale. Argyrols (2011) points out that a ratio scale uses units that measure equal distance between values on the scale with unique zero. The variables used indicate sick days with an interval of 1 and with a unique zero as a starting point since there can be zero sick days.
Measure of central tendency
The measures of central tendency are a summary statistic that provides center point of a data set (Argyrous, 2011). The measures of central tendency used in the descriptive statistics for Sun Coast Remediation data are mean, mode, and media. These measures provide the mid-point in which the sick days are dispersed and this can be deduced from the histogram as the mid-point from which the data sets are dispersed.
Evaluation
The assumptions for parametric assumptions can be ascertained if it were met by checking the histogram curve and the centrality of the distribution of the data. First, the measures of central tendency must be same. In the descriptive statistics, the mean, mode, and median are all same (7). Secondly, observing the histogram shows that the data is evenly distributed with no outliers. Lastly, the observed values for skewness and kurtosis are 0.142249784 and 0.124922603, which are all closer to zero. The general assumption is that the closer the values of skewness and kurtosis to zero, parametric statistical testing can be evaluated using such data. Therefore, the descriptive statistics above met the requirements of parametric assumptions.

Measurement scale
The data set in the variables are ordered with meaningful intervals between the data values without unique zero, meaning it used an interval measurement scale. The measures of lost time cannot have zero starting point, since one cannot say that there is zero lost time.
