Introduction According to Ott and French (2009, p. 703), “handwashing has the potential to reduce different infections”. New incentives are critical towards supporting the health needs of different people. Rosswurm and Larrabee’s Model is useful whenever planning to implement a new change. The model examines the effectiveness of every targeted change. Nurses and medical professionals must use appropriate leadership theories to support their proposed changes (Hayes, 2006). The Rosswurm and Larrabee’s Model can ensure every organization achieves its objectives. Change Plan Evidence-based practices and concepts are useful in every nursing institution. Caregivers can use Rosswurm and Larrabee’s Model to implement new nursing changes. The first step is assessing the need for the targeted change. The second stage “is analyzing the nature of the existing problem and the targeted goal” (Upshaw-Owens & Bailey, 2012, p. 78). The third stage is identifying and synthesizing the best evidence. The next step is designing the proposed change. The fifth stage focuses on the implementation and evaluation processes. Medical professionals must also “integrate and maintain the change” (Upshaw-Owens & Bailey, 2012, p. 79). Step 1: Assessing the Need for Change It is agreeable that there is a connection between human infections and poor hygiene. The targeted PICOT question for Milestone 1 identified the best informational posters that can encourage nurses to embrace health practices. According to Upshaw-Owens and Bailey (2012), many caregivers and nurses do not wash their hands regularly. Nurses must identify new skills that can improve the health of their patients. Many nurses do not embrace the best practices whenever supporting the needs of their patients. Step 2: Linking the Problem, Interventions, and Outcomes Different strategies can play a unique role in dealing with this issue. Healthcare professionals can use “posters, educational videos, and sensitization programs to deal with this problem” (Randle, Firth, & Vaughan, 2012, p. 2589). The important approach is identifying the right individuals to support the change. Every nurse must also embrace the best medical practices. The strategy will encourage more individuals to wash their hands frequently. Step 3: Synthesizing the Evidence According to Randle et al. (2012), many Nurse Practitioners (NPs) do not comply with different hand washing practices. Such individuals do not encourage their patients to wash their hands. This malpractice explains why many health problems are common in every society. Many healthcare facilities “do not promote the best behaviors such as hand washing” (Ott & French, 2009,
Introduction Curley, Hansberger and Harris (2013) major concern was the lack of measures that take into account the parents’ experiences in family-centered nursing care. As caring for families are becoming more fundamental in pediatric nursing, measures that take into consideration of the parents’ experiences are critical in nursing care. The authors of this article argue that current measures lack the parents’ experiences and should be included particularly in family centered-nursing care. The researchers’ main objective was to explain how the Family-Centered Care Scale (FCCS) that takes into consideration the parents experiences could initially be developed and tested. According to the researchers, the Family-Centered Care Scale developed is a seven-item tool intended to determine parents’ understanding of treatment and care that exemplify central values of family-centered care. In essence, the researchers tended to answer the question whether such a scale could be developed and tested in order to be practiced. Curley, Hansberger and Harris (2013) conducted their studies in three phases to establish the claimed reliant Family-Centered Care Scale. In the first phase of their study, eighteen items were designed to find explanations on how nurses engage parents of children being hospitalized. The second phase was designed to add more items in the instrument and refine the perceived outcomes in the first phase. The results of the two phases were studied and all t
There are several dominant religions in the world. Christianity and Islam are considered some of the most numerous and well-represented around the world. They are very similar to one another in many ways, including religious teachings and the concept of One God. Buddhism, however, is different. It is a religion widely-spread in the Far East, particularly in India, China, Japan, and some portions of the Middle East. Buddhism has no specific god to worship, which differs it from other religions. Instead, Buddhism focuses on how to solve real-life problems. One of its defining traits is the absence of the concept of revenge. Buddhism is not about who stabbed you with the sword but about how to pull it out. Buddhism is like a journey on a boat towards the shore. It provides the boat, but it is up to the person to sail. There are 2 major schools of Buddhism, called “The big boat” and “the small boat.” The Big Boat focuses on allowing others to accompany you on the journey to Nirvana, while the Small Boat only allows room for oneself. On the journey to Nirvana, traditions of donation of money and donation of the body are important, as charity is said to benefit those around you and make the journey easier. When people die, they are brought to the mountains, where the body is given to the vultures. Without the spirit, the body is useless, so it is viewed as the last step of separating the spirit from the body. Before Buddhism, Tibet had the religion of Bon. Similar rituals and symbols, different in history and religious authority. Buddhism has different wings. The Chinese, Indian, and Tibetan Buddhism. Chinese Buddhism is about Oa Chun – big boat. Sothern (Indian) – Show Chun (small boat). Tibetan Buddhism is very close to Bon – the religion it merged with during the establishment of Buddhism in Tibet. In Bon, as it is in Tibetan Buddhism, there are three regions – evil, human, and divine. Human lies in between and is in this world to find its path between good and evil. Witchcraft is used to communicate. Bon and early Tibetan Buddhism have strong ties to witchcraft. In Tibet, Buddhism and Bon competed with one another, being supported by different social groups. Royalty supported Buddhism, while rich and noble families – Bon. Eventually, Buddhism won. The two religions became incorporated into one another, with Buddhism taking some elements from Bon while disregarding those considered faulty. Buddhist temples play an important part in preserving the legacy of Buddhism, its history, traditions, and beliefs. They are scattered all around the world, but the majority of the temples can be found in China, India, and Japan. Afghanistan holds one of the largest Buddha statues in the world. In Tibet, Buddhist temples are few and far between due to the scarcity of materials necessary for construction. It is the reason why the concept of “Temple within oneself” is so important for Tibetan Buddhists – as long as they have it, they can conduct the rituals and practice their faith whenever they go, with no need for walls and altars to justify the divinity of their experience. These are the main points of the lecture about Buddhism
Introduction Each year, a great number of new immigrants arrive into the country from all over the world. Some of these immigrants enter the country legally while the others try to get in illegally. On the other hand, there are those who attempt to immigrate into the country illegally through various devious means. At the borders, they are apprehended and forcibly made to return to their country. Despite the challenges that the government faces with regard to the immigrant problem, there are cases when authorities are obligated to accept immigrants. The rising number of immigrants each year has become a serious debate issue. Some groups support policies that protect the rights of immigrants while others are strongly opposed to the laws that encourage immigrant entrance into the country. According to Sir Michael Dummet, the state has several duties towards immigrants. To begin with, the state has to recognize that its primary role is the welfare of its own citizens as well as protection of the others who are in need. Thus the notion that a state’s sole responsibility is only to ensure and care about its citizens’ wellbeing is faulty and misconceived. Dummet supports his supposition. He claims all the citizens have a personal a certain moral obligation to their country as well. The whole population is represented by their state in the world. Consequently, it follows that some country is also morally obliged to consider the welfare of other states and that of other individuals (Huemer, 2010). This paper will explore the obligations that the nation has towards the acceptance of immigrants. Furthermore, the paper will discuss what a morally justified immigration policy includes. The paper will uphold the position to support for the right of immigration. Statement of politicians’ position The opposition directed towards immigrants and their rights stems from the sense of selfishness among the citizens and politicians of the host country. Both the electors and the politicians alike promote the idea that a nation is only responsible for its citizens without any regard for immigrants coming in from foreign countries. Consequently, the politicians will normally base their arguments on what they think about serving the interests of their country best. For instance, British politicians involved in the European Union deliberations always ground their decisions to support or veto motions on whether it is in the interest of Britain or not. This is contrary to the expectation that they should consider the interests of the European Union to make their decision whether to support the motion or denounce it. Politicians take this position with regard to one crucial reason, which is foreign citizens are of little or no value to their political ambitions. Since the foreign citizens hold no voting power in the country they immigrate into, the politicians deem them insignificant for their campaigns (Dummett, 2001). Critique of politicians’ position and my position The concept of ‘sovereignty’ promotes this state of affairs. This con
Introduction The school philosophy is one of the premises for achieving educational goals. Schools should have a well-established philosophy as it makes the process of sharing and gaining knowledge-focused, clear, consistent, and effective. School philosophy can be regarded as a guideline used to choose methods and techniques for teaching students (Joyce, Weil, & Calhoun, 2015). Teachers should share their school’s philosophy to achieve their and the school’s educational goals. Otherwise, young learners may simply develop mistrust, doubt, and even hostility to the teacher, which will inevitably lead to ineffective teaching and learning. Luckily, I share my school’s philosophy, which helps me be a good teacher. School Philosophy First, I would like to note that I will employ Eisner’s ideas concerning school philosophy. Eisner (2017) states that five major orientations (every school has) include academic rationalism, personal relevance, social adaptation, curriculum as technology, and cognitive processes development. Importantly, schools often try to balance these orientations, but one or some of them usually stand out. For instance, all schools adhere to some norms and regulations, including certain standards, so it is impossible to disregard such orientation as academic rationalism. At that, some schools tend to put an emphasis on constructing young people’s ability to integrate into modern society. My school is one of such educational establishments. At that, my school also pays the necessary attention to fostering students’ ability to develop and express their own views and perspectives. These orientations are manifested in various aspects. The curriculum includes various activities associated with learners’ interaction with the real world, so-to-speak. Field trips are common, and various guests often come to share their experience, knowledge, ideas, and so on. Many classrooms are equipped with tools and technology typical of the modern world. All these things make students prepared for their future functioning within the community. At the same time, classrooms have visuals revealing such values as the respect of opinions and ideas, the importance of developing one’s own perspective on different matters, and the like. Clearly, the display of learners’ works is a common thing for any educational establishment. However, in our school, these works are exhibited so that the diversity of ideas was revealed. My Philosophy My school’s philosophy is one of the major reasons I am so committed to it. First, it is necessary to identify my philosophy and views. The most appropriate framework for this task is Ross Philosophical Inventory (Joyce et al., 2015). My philosophical orientation is two-fold as I balance between idealism and pragmatism. On the one hand, I believe that students should be trained to become successful members of modern society. I think
Introduction The topic of abortions is, arguably, one of the most controversial and emotionally charged in the medical history, and it continues to cause a divide in healthcare even today. History knows many cases of doctors getting lynched for providing such operations when the abortion procedure itself was prohibited by law. Pregnancy and everything associated with it have always been on the edge of political, social, and cultural debate, which complicates the analysis process of abortions from medical perspective. Yet it is simultaneously the case where a detailed and balanced understanding of reasons, potential consequences and necessary precautions is essential. This paper attempts to cover the aforementioned topics, as well as provide a brief review of the utilized literature, an overview of relevant legal conditions and a summary of general research findings on the topic. Literature Review For this assignment, four medical articles were reviewed and cited in the end of this paper in the MLA style. The first is Post-abortion Care: Ethical and Legal Duties written by Bernard Dickens and published on 30 th of August 2019. It discusses common abortion complications and the post-abortion care a patient requires if she experiences any of them. It also discusses the potential adversities that might happen if the operation has been conducted incorrectly or the appropriate care has not been provided in time. These effects include death, avoidable disability, and infertility, and are often mentioned in an anti-abortion rhetoric for obvious reasons. The second article used is Reasons for and Logistical Burdens of Judicial Bypass for Abortion in Illinois that examines the causes of such procedures, particularly in younger patients. It provides a detailed overview of the complexity of the decision young women often have to undertake due to lack of support systems and financial independence. As it also comments on the significant number of teen pregnancies related to the abortion clinics, the relevancy of the article to the topic is enormous. The third article review, again, concerns the reasons women decide to undergo an abortion, as this area has proven to be the most layered and complex throughout the research. ‘Repeat abortion’, a phrase to be avoided? Qualitative insights into labelling and stigma examine the effects that more than one abortion has on women’s psyche. It also provides an overview of social stigmatization a woman faces and the negative consequences it has for her self-esteem and mental health, only intensifying the effects of the procedure. This article also demonstrates how difficult it is to analyze and categorize the instances of the unwanted pregnancies. Because of the great sensitivity associated with the subject and its nature, research is frequently limited by lack of cooperation from the side of the participants. The fourth article is, Abortion around the world. An overview of legislation, measures, tr
Growth Strategy Stratasys Limited is one of the leaders in the world’s market of 3D printing. The company competes with a few other manufacturers and is to deal with the challenges presented by them when it comes to the delivery of value. Stratasys specializes in the provision of AM solutions (additive manufacturing) to the production of parts of products as well as end products. One of the primary value creation orientations of the company is the establishment of a complete and multidimensional ecosystem for the self-integration in multiple market niches. Simple Rules The simple rules of Stratasys focus on the search for benefits by means of innovation or the improvement of products and services, acquisitions, collaboration, and expansion. These rules can be characterized as boundary rules because they provide clear areas of orientation for the company employees and help them concentrate their efforts on the pursuit of clearly outlined kinds of opportunities. Besides, these rules can be recognized as priority rules because they specify which objectives Stratasys favors over the others as the spheres carrying the best market advantages. Moreover, these rules can be qualified as timing rules as the company attempts to be a pioneer of 3D printing solutions and services and win the clients through offering the most advanced capabilities and the latest inventions. Short-Term The company’s short-term growth strategy involves the careful management of its financial resources and revenues. The report concerning the performance of Stratasys in the second quarter of 2015 indicated 182.3 million dollars in revenue and about 23 million net loss (non-GAAP) with the net income of only 8 million ( Stratasys Reports Second Quarter 2015 Financial Results , 2015). To compare, the net income reported after the end of the first half of 2015 significantly exceeded that of last year. As a result, the authorities of the company made a statement that their efforts in the short-term growth strategy will be directed at the management of finances and the adjustment of the company expenses to the current state of the market ( Stratasys Reports Second Quarter 2015 Financial Results , 2015). Besides, the latest report as to the result of the third quarter showed that Stratasys continued to experience problems with the net loss. The report maintained that “the Company believes that during 2013 and 2014, Stratasys and the overall 3D printing industry experienced a period of extraordinary growth t
Outline Workforce diversity should be treated as a business initiative and not a human resource or personnel department function. There is a strong business case for diversity in the workplace. The 21st century enterprises have a felt need to value, and leverage diversity. It is top agenda item for successful CEOs. It is commonly accepted business reality that heterogeneous groups outperform homogenous groups. Heterogeneous groups are better at problem solving, effective at decision making, and they are particularly well equipped in generating creative ideas. The advantage comes from the fact that the diversity of the workforce background itself imparts a fertile launch pad for creativity to work at its best. Two brains are better than one is a truism aptly applicable to business situations. The power of brainstorming to create a dramatic impact in finding creative solutions to business problems is enormous. Modern work teams can do wonders in workplace. Productivity, and work quality significantly go up when employees have, or perceive they have, a full opportunity to contribute in a meaningful way. 3M typifies such philosophy abundantly. There is a sense of job ownership, project ownership, ownership of the outcome. Even the most die-hard critic of workforce diversity will be unable to refute the obvious benefits of diversity. Introduction We live in a society that is known for its differences. Diversity in terms of multiculturalism, gender politics, affirmative action, preferences, and mandates have become part of our existence. We are today more actively dividing ourselves by race, gender, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, cultural norms, physical ability, and socioeconomic status, than in the past (George, 1961). Though diversity is in existence since long, it is only recently that it has attracted greater attention from the corporate mandarins. Managing diversity is nothing but changing the organisational culture or its standard operating procedures. The fostered culture should enable employees to closely examine their values and beliefs and question themselves as to why others look different for them. Diversity management must essentially create an environment that works naturally for the total diversity mixture. Keeping this in view the present paper attempts to clarify some of the real life business challenges in an environment characterised by diversity in workforce. Why Diversity Management? Human beings tend to see through their own views and interpret the views by what is accustomed to them. There is an addiction to seek the aggregation of those makes a lot of agnate to them for the acquisition and assurance in similarities. It is difficult for humans to conceive power, and history shows that it is rarely done voluntarily. They abide by the external changes and always strive for an accompaniment of homeostasis. This amusing absoluteness makes an atmosphere appropriate for diversity, which includes anybody; adolescent, old, abandoned and a
