In his reflection, the researcher will assess the link between individual moral convictions either cultural or spiritual, and nursing practice. The researcher will develop a definition of various concepts, such as values, morals, and ethics of the nursing practice and the manner in which personal values, philosophy, and views may contradict the duty of nursing practice. Therefore, it will be important to look at some of the moral conflicts a person may experience when providing healthcare services. Thus, it is beneficial to illustrate how the researcher’s world influences his behavior and decision making. The Nursing Ethics In a reflection given from the President’s Council on Bioethics (2003), the role of knowledge in achieving completeness and protection of the vulnerable is highlighted. This becomes the natural motive and duty of the doctors while they serving people with different afflictions. The reflection also articulates on the functions of medicine in light of the relationship between a doctor and a patient; in other words, evaluating the calling of the doctor to heal and comfort the afflicted patients (President’s Council on Bioethics, 2003). The message from the President’s Council also articulates on the oath that governs doctors in their service to the patients. The Hippocratic Oath as translated by Leon Kass, served as a guide to an appropriate medical practice (President’s Council on Bioethics, 2003). The passage explaining the Hippocratic Oath pinpoints the divine elements associated with it; but for this study, the researcher would only pick the relevant issues. For instance, it mentions the need for the physician to fulfill his or her duties in accordance with his or her abilities. It goes ahead to illustrate the need for the physician to act in a manner that promotes the well being of the sick in accordance with his or her ability and judgment which are connected with the duty of safeguarding them against harm and injustice (President’s Council on Bioethics, 2003). The Hippocratic Oath regards the duty of the physician as vital to ensure he or she does not give a deadly drug to the sick, or does not suggest a misguided treatment. It also presupposes the physicians to keep confidential matters secret related to the treatment of the sick (President’s Council on Bioethics, 2003). In the Code of Ethics for Nurses, it is stressed that physicians have a duty to safegu
Introduction Everybody has support mechanisms that keep them motivated or calm them down when needed. I think that music can play a role of such a mechanism because of its ability to transfer emotions that a person feels. It is not a secret that when someone is sad, he or she will play the music that will be suitable for that particular emotion. No wonder that people have closer connections to music when they are in their teens – the large spectrum of emotions that they experience is usually released through the music that they listen to. Evidence Researchers have intensively studied whether music could benefit people from the psychological perspective and found some correlations between music listening and the improvement of psychological functions such as mood, self-awareness, arousal, and others (Schafer, Sedlmeier, Stadtler, & Huron, 2013). Such findings show that music has the potential of facilitating people’s development as fully-rounded and mentally stable individuals. For children, music has been shown to activate brain subsystems involved in expressing emotions or motivation and subsequently enhance activity (Henze, 2013). For instance, children who do not speak a second language fluently are more likely to be successful in participating in music activities because they are universal and do not require any particular skills. Among patients diagnosed with complex conditions such as Parkinson’s, therapy strategies such as music-based movement can contribute to the improvement of gait-related activities (de Dreu, van der Wilk, Poppe, Kwakkel, & van Wegen, 2012). Conclusion These findings show that music plays a large role in our lives and is not limited to a particular sphere – it can provide emotional support to people in distress while being proven by research to benefit patients clinically or to enhance children’s learning and cognition.
Introduction The Keurig Incorporated are spreading the spectrum of their products with the creation of the Keurig Kold. Kold is a recently developed machine for making cold drinks. So far it has only been sold on the Internet, but the company is working on its full launch. The benefits, factors for success and marketing strategies of the Kold machine are the result of an attempt to combine the benefits of Keurig coffee machines and consumers’ love for soda drinks. Primary features and benefits Considering that 12% of the Keurig Inc. belongs to Coca-Cola Co., the variety of drinks Kold can make includes not only iced teas, craft sodas, mixer, flavored waters, and seltzers but also all-favorite Coca-cola sodas. Such an assortment of drinks clearly has it benefits. Keurig’s CEO Brian Kelley work for the Coca-Cola Company and knows, that usually with soft drinks consumers have to make the choice and buy perhaps less different kinds of product than they wanted, because beverages take a lot of space in the fridge. Furthermore, the more vast assortment is, the more flavors consumers would want to try because the very slogan of the Kold is “Pick and Choose. And Choose. And Choose”. Moreover, the compact form of the product consents to it. As for the Keurig Kold machine itself, it is rather minimalistic and exquisitely designed kitchen gadget. Unlike instant beverages that are associated with unhealthy living and are more oriented to lower class consumers, Kold is designed to fit into the modern understanding of privileged lifestyle. And it is not that cheap; therefore, it is branded like a fashionable fancy device, rather than a product for everyday needs. Factors for success The Kold machine is presented as a fashionable and modern product
Introduction Aspden, Corrigan et al. (2004), in their 2003 Institute of Medicine of the National Academies patient safety report describes an electronic medical records as a system which encompasses, “a longitudinal collection of electronic health information for and about persons which can be immediately accessed by people with the help of an authorized user and can help in provision of knowledge and decision-support aimed at enhancing the quality, safety & efficiency of patient care and support for efficient processes for health care delivery” 1 . This paper is a grant proposal whose objective is to assess the effect of automated screening of patient’s electronic medical records on the quality of healthcare delivery and the cost of medical testing services. Hypothesis The study hypothesis is that automated screening of outpatient’s electronic medical records in various clinics in Midwestern USA increases the quality of care of the patients with chronic illnesses while reducing the cost of their medical testing by 40% within a period of one years. Literature Review The Institute of Medicine, Deloitte research and other research firms, have indicated that despite health care being an information intensive industry, it remains highly fragmented and inefficient in comparison to the other sectors such as banking, insurance and education, but nevertheless, major changes to reform the health care digital information systems have started to take centre stage 2 . These changes are aimed at rapidly rising health care costs and increasing concerns for patient’s safety and the quality of health care 3 . The use of information technology to address improvements in patient safety is currently driving health care organizations to automate clinical care operations and associated administrative functions 4 . Research findings published in the MEDLINE database from the Journal of American Board of Family Practice by Wilbur, Huffman, Lofto and Finnell in the year 2011 in their study, found out that, “of the 8,489 emergency department patients who participated in the study, 5,794 (68.3%) of them were identified to be eligible for screening” 5 . The research also found out that, “of the 1,484 (25.6%) patients approached for screening, 1,121 (75.5%) consented to be screened for HIV Virus and 5 (0.4%) received confirmed positive results” 6 . The research also revealed that, “the reasons for ineligibility, as determined by the electronic medical record system, were previous screening 1,125 (41.7%), age 890 (33.0%), known HIV 111 (4.1%) and those with unknown reasons were 569 (21.1%)” 7 . It was concluded that, “clinical informatics solutions can provide automated delineation of emergency departments subpopulations eligible for HIV screening, according to predetermined criteria, which could increase program efficiency and might accelerate integration of HIV screening into clinical practice” 8 . Research done by Liljeqvist et al. in 2011, indicated that, “syndrome
Abstract According to the researches have been made by UNHCR, 1998 , found that 80% of the refugees immigrating to the United States and other countries of second asylum are women or children. Women are the most vulnerable population because of both physical realities and traditional cultural roles and perspectives. a lot have left their family and support systems behind. Some have lost their husbands and children to war, Disease and famine. a lot of women refugees have stay their time in refugee camps where conditions are crowded and frequently Unhealthy. Most of them have been the victims of violence. All have left everything familiar behind. As if the tragedy and fear that forced these women to leave their homes, including what was a burden enough, many refugees find themselves in a foreign country, with unknown customs, language, values and conventions. They are immediately faced with the major role changes, which further increases their vulnerability. Refugees women are affected differently than men by events of their past, and have special concerns arising from these events and responses. Regardless of the details that led the women to flee their homes, typically they come to the countries of refuge to second asylum refuge with all-encompassing human needs ,including the spiritual, social, and psychological Health Care Refugees should be provided by full natural examination within the first year of their stay. this may be the only form of health care provided to many during this period of time. Language barriers, limited transportation, deficient knowledge of the refugee agency regarding health needs, and limited knowledge of health care sources all inhibit the refugee woman’s access to primary and specialty health care. refugee women might not know about financial aid during the presentation of the various agencies. Personal and cultural issues may also cause a woman to hesitate seeking health care. Many refugee women come from very private backgrounds and may fear allowing someone outside their culture to examine or treat them. Others have always relied on traditional methods of treating illness, and may distrust western medicine techniques. Safe home This important reason may greatly increase or decreased the refugee woman’s. In many countries of first asylum, refugee women live in the crowded refugee camps where she may be Exposed to violation or disease. Some refugees women may stay in survive ,brothels or sweatshops. Although there may be different options for the refugee woman in countries of second asylum, shelter that is safe, comfortable, and affordable may still be difficult to find. Childbirth Refugee women tend to have the best parity, delayed prenatal care, and lower hematocrits than their host country counterparts. Refugee women are also more likely to have complications during labor and delivery and to deliver low birth weight babies. Financial implications of having children may also increase the physical and emotional strains on refugee women. Each culture has its own views of childbirth, and these need to be assessed in terms
The spectrum of race weighs heavily on the history of the United States and Canada and keeps on shaping the life experiences of Black people living in both countries. According to Reynolds (2016), not only is race a central element of history and culture, but it also determines the writing and reading of history. That is why Canada’s policy of multiculturalism contributed to the adoption of Black History Month, which initially originated in the United States and took place every February. It is the time during which people are encouraged to participate in festivities and events honoring the legacy of Black folks and their communities. Black History Month in Canada has been conducive to schools teaching about diversity and the ancestry of African cultures. Prince (2009) states that it is, indeed, extremely important – but a special month is not enough. She recalls coming to schools every February to read stories to kids, providing them with a Black perspective on their history. That, in Prince’s (2009) opinion, is simply a crumb that Blacks are offered to settle for and stop there. It contributes to the amplification of the compartmentalized version of Black people’s history, which only further perpetuates a hegemony that denies their existence. An example of that, at one time, was a librarian’s suggestion that Prince read from a collection of Anansi stories instead of something she picked from her children’s book. This was justified by the fact that none of the kids in the audience were Black, but all of them understood Anansi, as well as Prince’s book, was generally deemed too difficult. Prince politely declined but was offended, for that was a classical instance of attempts to suppress a distinct cultural vision that she was supposed to deliver. Therefore, an inclusive curriculum is not simply an option to consider – it is an absolute necessity. Instead of devoting twenty-eight days to the Black perspective and then ignoring it for the rest of the year, the government is to implement the exploration of the world’s history into the regular syllabus. Not only will it contribute to the destruction of harmful myths and to a fuller understanding of the cause-effect relationship between certain events – but it will also make Black children feel represented. For a country that prides itself on encouraging multicultural policies, all of these are equally important.
In today’s world, the market for cell phones is becoming more and more competitive. Even if one is creating a completely unique product, one needs to take into account the potential competitors since the market is very dynamic. Max Fischer wants to create a venture which will be related to prepaid cell phones exclusively. We propose to you a business idea of a venture which will target the potential customers of Prepaid cell phones. While cell phones with package deals from Virgin, T-mobiles and so on, are being used in the market, the market for prepaid cell phones is increasing rapidly. For this particular reason Max has come up with the idea of targeting that population with starting a business which concentrates exclusively on prepaid cell phones. With Max’s technical background, and my own business experience, we feel that this venture could be a success. While Max can provide with all the technical contacts and resources, I will help with the strategic planning and business related concepts which must go into the development and launch of the product. Initially extensive market research will have to be done. This will involve both Primary research as well as looking at second hand data. Firstly, second hand data can be looked at to identify details which perhaps other businesses have collected for a similar or different purpose. This can involve analyzing existing businesses, their strategies, performances, USP’s and so forth. Next, a Primary research must be conducted in order to find out exactly what we will need. This will involve identifying different markets of cell phones, also locating the areas where a niche can be created. Surveys, questioners, observational tools can be used. This step is of utmost importance because it will guide us to the most profitable areas of the market; either the mainstream or the segments which have not yet been exploited. (Market research) Once a complete market research has been conducted, different segments have been identified, a SWOT and PEST analysis will further help with the positioning and development of the product. A PEST analysis will further strengthen the market research data. The PEST analysis will help us identify the potential and existing conditions in the market on a Political, Economical, Social and Technological basis. This will be very important for the product development, and will also help decide whether to create a niche or go mainstream.These factors will be analyzed to predict whether or not the market for prepaid cellphones is likely to increase or decrease. (PEST) Next a SWOT analysis must be conducted. This will give details regarding the strengths and weaknesses of the people and resources behind the business plan. It is important to recognize these since it will help idetify what additional resources are required and what strengths within the business can be used to develop and market the new product. This strategic analysis ca
The reasons for the shortage of funds can be divided into two groups: internal and external. Internal reasons include those that originated in the enterprise itself and are due to its specifics. The external causes of the shortage of funds do not depend on the enterprise. There are two main ways to overcome the lack of funds: increasing the inflow and reducing the outflow of funds. The most common internal reasons for cash deficit include the following: the loss of one or more large buyers of the company’s products, which caused a noticeable decrease in sales volumes and deficiencies in planning and managing the company’s product range. The leading external cause of the cash deficit is fierce competition from other manufacturers of similar products. These three named circumstances can be considered the three most compelling reasons for the company’s decrease in cash. The purpose of the analysis of cash flows is, first of all, the analysis of the financial stability and the enterprise’s profitability. Its starting point is the calculation of cash flows, primarily from operating activities. The economic well-being of an enterprise largely depends on the flow of funds to cover its obligations (Clarke). Lack of the minimum required supply of funds may indicate financial difficulties. Out of four years of Aston Martin’s activity, the situation continued for three years when the “change in cash” indicators took a negative value. This means that there was a leak of funds, and costs exceeded revenue. Such a process is a red signal for potential investors about the danger of investing in such an organization. There is a significant difference between the performance of BMW and Aston Martin. In 20X4 BMW, this figure was 1.98; Aston Martin’s figure was minus 25.90. Total equity demonstrates how financially stable the company is. Over four years, it has been observed that this indicator is consistently low. To increase it, the company will need to attract additional investments or take other measures to improve its activities (increase net profit). For comparison, the exact figure is 50 times higher for BMW. In addition, the analyzed company has shallow non-current assets, designed to demonstrate assets that are not easy to convert into cash. Their small number also affects the economic stability of the company. When there are few of them, the company cannot function effectively. To improve this
Introduction Toyota is the largest automobile manufacturer in the world. The main target market of the company is the middle class. The company has several brands that are popular due to their prices and quality. However, due to quality concerns, recalls of automobiles threaten to tarnish the image and reputation of the company. This necessitated the company to develop an efficient crisis public relations strategy to prevent the tarnishing of its image. Crisis PR addresses the needs of the stakeholders and averts the looming problem. The success of crisis PR was highly dependent on the ability of the company to address the needs of the stakeholders using proper communication channels. Failure to use efficient crisis PR would make other automobile manufacturers take advantage of the crisis in Toyota to develop strategies that would improve their competitiveness. Stakeholder Needs For an organization to respond effectively to a crisis, it should understand its image and reputation. In addition, the company must know the impact the crisis will have on its activities. Efficient crisis PR necessitates a company to address the specific needs of each stakeholder. Efficient response to the crisis will enable the stakeholders to uphold the positive image, identity and reputation of the company (Seitel, 2011). In Toyota’s case, the company had to address the needs of their customers and employees to prevent future occurrence of the problem. Safety and comfort were the major quality concerns of the customers. Therefore, it was vital for the crisis PR to address these issues. Toyota developed the Collaborative Safety Research Center (CSRC). CSRC helped in improving the safety of cars and reducing the number of fatalities on North American roads. CSRC pays special attention to certain vulnerable populations. These include children, teens and seniors (Toyota, 2012). CSRC has partnerships with various leading academic and research institutions. These partnerships help in developing projects that can improve the safety of Toyota’s customers. Partnerships and collaborations with leading academic and research institutions ensure customers that the company is seeking help from the best available sources. This would greatly improve the confidence that customers have in Toyota’s products. Currently, there are more than seven projects with the academic and research institutions that strive to improve automotive safety. CSRC has improved the customers’ perception of the company. It assured the customers that the company puts their interests at heart. Social media is one of the most recent technological advances that companies striving to be market leaders should embrace. Companies may use social media for a variety of purposes. These include marketing and survey. Social media is a critical PR tool that companies may use to repair their image and reputation. Toyota used social media as a PR tool for repairing its image and reputation. Toyota’s customers in the US have direct access to the US CEO via Digg. This allowed the customers to pose questions
