For this assignment, you will prepare a PowerPoint presentation downloadwith detailed speaker’s notes that is written from the perspective of being a practice manager for a community health center within a safety net hospital.

The federal government provides subsidies to safety net hospitals to help care for non-paying patients.
The goal of this presentation is to prepare an in-service training for clinic staff members to fully understand the challenges faced by cancer or HIV/AIDS patients as they near the end-stage of their disease along with support options for patients and caregivers.
You may choose to create this assignment covering patients with end-stage cancer or end-stage HIV/AIDS. Once you have chosen the disease focus, choose the patient’s age range from one of the following:
Childhood/Adolescence: 0–18 years
Adult: 19–64 years
Elderly: 65+ years
Introduction:
Begin your presentation by including a title slide that includes the following:
Title of the presentation
Student name
Course name and number
Instructor name
Date submitted
Next, create an overview slide that briefly describes the required components covered within the presentation. Add bulleted points for each of the topics covered. Briefly describe each bulleted point in the speaker’s notes section. It is also recommended that you review the PowerPoint Instructions Handout downloadas guidance for properly building this presentation. See the bullet points and speaker’s notes information below. The remaining slides will address the content of the presentation and the references.
The content must address the following required components:
