[Solved] HCP517Communication And Reporting Mechanisms In Compliance WEEK5: Convincing Executive Leadership

Assignment Prompt & Instructions

**Imagine** you are a compliance officer in a research organization that has been contracted to test a new vaccine for the Zika virus. The organization has been under increased public, corporate, political, and financial pressure to determine whether the new vaccine is a solution to the international public health emergency. To be the first organization to declare the vaccine viable, your organization has side-stepped compliance protocols by skipping straight to human trials. Your executive leadership has been reluctant to adopt organizational practices that you believe would satisfy compliance standards and reduce risk. **Create** a 10- to 15-minute, 9- to 12-slide voice-over presentation using either Microsoft® PowerPoint® or websites such as Google Slides™, Adobe® Slate, or Prezi®. Include at least 1 slide on each of the following: – Conflicts of interest. – Cost allocation and reporting expectations. – What research regulations may have been violated? – What the reporting protocols to the government may look like. – The consequences of clinical research misconduct. – The steps you will take to investigate the situation. – Your recommendation of an organizational policy to minimize risk until the investigation can occur. **Persuade** the executive leadership that you are a knowledgeable compliance officer, that this is the correct course of action, and that they should adopt your recommendations. **Cite** 3 reputable references to support your assignment (e.g., trade or industry publications, government or agency websites, scholarly works, or other sources of similar quality). **Format** your citations according to APA guidelines.
