Introduction

Telemedicine is the utilization of information and communication technology for the provision of health care services in which the patient and the care giver are at different locations. It eliminates the distance barrier in the provision of medical services. (Dial Doctors, 2011)
Advantages of telemedicine include the provision of health care to locations that are not easily accessible to the care giver. For example, remote places would be able to get good medical advice when they need them with the use of telemedicine. Patient outcomes are also improved because of unhindered access to patient. Also, the frequency of ...

Healthcare associated infections (HAIs) are complications that occur while patients undergo treatment and are often associated with invasive procedures and devices. According to Magill et al. (2014), about 721,800 HAIs occurred in acute care settings in 2011 with the top five types of infections being pneumonia, gastrointestinal infection, urinary tract infection (UTI), bloodstream infection, and surgical site infection (SSI). However, most HAIs are preventable through adherence to prevention standards and the implementation of related programs. The purpose of this paper is to explore current HAI standards and HAI prevention programs.

Research Question- Why is it a problem if the earth’s average temperature gets a little warmer?

1.1 Results
The average rising temperature can have vast impacts only by slight increase. The vast impact the average temperature can have can be shown with the average temperature in the last ice age, when the average temperatures were only around 5 degrees Celsius lower than today’s average temperatures. From the Figure 1 it is seen that the global average temperature, which combines the surface and ocean temperature have been on the rise and have reached the highest levels in the ...

Over the years, the music has been an integral part of human culture. The number of musical genres is difficult to count, and sub-genres is and even more. Every continent, every country, every nation has its own unique authentic sound that the master holding musical instruments, warmed the hearts of his listeners. Sometimes it happens that neighboring states (in a variety of historical processes) affect the neighboring countries, thus bringing something new to the culture of the people and the music in particular.
A striking example of this influence can be called the influence of African music on the ...

There are a number of literature from the past to the present on this issue. A survey of the literatures allows us to divide the various explanations and analysis of gender inequalities in labor force into a few categories. We have viewed ...

Introduction

In previous decades, epidemics were associated entirely with communicable diseases. However, a recent global phenomenon is the significant rise in incidence of chronic diseases linked to individual lifestyles. Unhealthy diet, inadequate physical activity, smoking, and alcohol intake all play a role in initiating the physiologic changes that lead to the development and progression of lifestyle-related conditions including cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer (Strychar, Elisha & Schmitz, 2012). These are the top causes of death in populations as reported by many countries.
Because of the association with lifestyle factors, such illnesses are largely preventable but require complex management once acquired. ...

Abstract

This paper looks at the nonlethal and less-than-lethal options of force for law enforcement officers. The weapons explored include pepper spray, tasers, and impact projectiles. Also discussed are new inventions that will become available soon. For instance, a thermal gun, an electromagnetic gadget that causes the person to have an epileptic fit, and a variety of nets are currently in progress. This paper discusses a key concern with the use of these weapons: one of safety. Each weapon has its advantages and disadvantages of use. A foremost concern is the overuse of these weapons on children, pregnant women, and the elderly. Included ...

The exchange of one’s thoughts, feelings and opinions with those of others is a basic human need, most commonly known as communication. A human being relies on several aspects of communication such as spoken words, body language, expression of emotions and behavior in order to understand messages being conveyed by others. However, communication is not entirely related to simple sensory perceptions such as sound and vision. A person’s personal views, beliefs and state of mind also have a great impact on how he or she conveys and comprehends messages. Communication is used by people in all walks of life, ...

Abstract

The concentration of carbon dioxide has been abnormally increasing over the years. In the year 2016, its concentration exceeded the limitations, and has been considered as a dangerous situation. As a response to the increasing carbon dioxide content in the Earth’s atmosphere, different processes are being suggested in order to lower the concentration. Carbon Capture and Storage, or CCS, is one of these processes. Generally, there are three different phases of this process: the pre-combustion, the oxyfuel, and the post-combustion. These three phases have different processes in which the carbon dioxide content is being separated from the other ...

Introduction

Radiologic technologist refers to a healthcare professional that carries out diagnostic imaging processes (Hong et al., 2013). The diagnostic imaging procedures include magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography scan as well as X-ray examinations. Many of these professionals work full-time hence working at least 40hours a week. However, studies suggest that overworking these professionals lead to fatigue which brings about discrepancies in their operations (Nejati-Koshki et al., 2014).

Effect of overworking radiologic technologists

Overworking radiological technologists result from under-staffing these practitioners in a health care system (Niederwanger et al., 2013). Staff shortage is considered the leading cause of discrepancies and errors in radiology (Yi et ...

Introduction/Problem Statement

Despite much hullabaloo on women's equality and empowerment, it is not yet ascertained that the fairer sex is considered as equal when it comes to employment. Four decades after the enactment of Equal Pay Act, research finds that the salary of female bosses runs 35 percent short of their male colleagues. Statistics galore revealing the wage differential across occupations and industries. By contrast, critics on the 'right' opine that the pay gap is just a 'myth' as women deserve to get paid less because they work in less demanding jobs than male counterparts. Obviously, the issue carries much heft ...

Who

The fire is considered a (singular) wildfire (rather than a collection of wildfires). It has been attributed to warmer-than-average atmospheric conditions, with temperatures rising more than 40o F above normal for this time of year. Strong winds have helped fan the flames and encourage the rapid spread of the fire in all directions from its starting point (Kahn, 2016).

What

On May 1, 2016, a fire started 15 km east of Fort McMurray, prompting local officials to declare a state of emergency, and initiating a mandatory evacuation of the neighborhoods of Prairie Creek, Gregoire, and the Centennial Trailer Park. More ...

Abstract

As we all know, humor is an important part of social interaction in our everyday lives. While we might often think of humor as being something practiced by professional comedians on television or in movies, the truth is that virtually every human being engages in humor to one degree or another on an almost daily basis. And this applies to the workplace as much is anyplace else in our lives. People use humor at work for any number of important reasons, such as relieving tension, encouraging improved performance, establishing a leadership position or simply to make others feel at ...

Background

Poverty is broadly defined as insufficient resources for an adequate standard of living. (ECLAC, 2008). Crime is defined as action against the law or violation of the law (Finkelhor, 2009). Glaeser and Kahn (2008) have indicated in their research on Chicago inner-city communities that an adolescent getting exposed to crime due to poverty has 100 times more probabilities to commit crimes later in his life. Finkelhor (2009) in his research sought an answer for the root causes of criminal behavior. He found a relationship between poverty and criminal activity. His findings show that a poor person is five times more likely ...

Historical background

Before the 20th century, diabetic conditions were rare in the human population. In early 1900, the problem was known as “honey urine” identified among the rich gluttons. In the late years, many physicians distinguished and identified insulin dependent and non-insulin dependent. The adoption and classification of the disease as type one and type 2 diabetes took place in 1970. Until 1950, diet change was considered the only remedy for the problem. Type 2 diabetes was first identified and seen common among the wealthy people. Improvement in living standards influenced development of this condition among the people lower social class

Leadership is the ability of a person in charge of others or a specific group to provide guidance and direction to those that he or she commands. The group works with a common objective in mind. In executing leadership roles, the person in charge does not only depend on his or her ability to give direction, but also depends on social control. Social influence goes beyond individual effort to the engagement of the subjects in the accomplishment of a given task. At most times, leaders assume the support of the people they are leading. However, success in leadership depends on others, as well; ...

“Is the current wage gap unfairly distributed in favor of men because of Sexual Discrimination?”

Throughout history, the equality of women’s earnings in the workplace has drawn much debate without any concrete solution to resolving the issue. This practice is a form of sexual discrimination in the workplace. This issue has persisted because of legal, religious and cultural practices over the years, Over the years men earn more pay than men even though in instances they hold the same positions and have the same level of education. Women who work full time only receive 77 cents out of every dollar that men earn. In America, this gap in wages results in a loss of over $ ...

Introduction

With the national average of women’s salaries currently, 77% of men’s salaries for the same position determine that there is discrimination in gender pay in our society that needs to be addressed. Working in the Education/Corrections system, we often see women overlooked for positions that they are as qualified for or even more qualified for in some cases than their male co-workers. I would like to investigate the evaluation process to determine if there is discrimination that may be a factor in the pay difference of gender.
Another research documenting on the gender and double standards through ...

Physicians’ prevalence of recommending HPV vaccine for adolescent males aged between 11 and 26

Constructing a conceptual framework for the study to investigate the prevalence of physicians to recommend HPV vaccines for males aged between 11 and 26 will require the identification of variables. These include variables that will be dependent on other variables and those that will be independent. In most occasions, independent variables are those that exist prior to a study while dependent variables are met while constructing the literature review of a research or study. It is important to note that conceptual frameworks are personal opinions that may or may not be provable through any means suitable for the purposes of the study ( ...

Introduction

Kahn, Kernan, Arnoff and Griswold (2008) scrutiny culture as a set of behaviors and beliefs that typify, characterize and distinguish a particular age, social or ethnic group. These behaviors and beliefs that are put together are learnt or taught by associating with precise groups. According to culture, persons should conduct themselves in accordance to set rules and regulations. Consequently, culture becomes a very strong contributor on substance abuse by the adolescence. Griswold et al. (2009), states that cultures permit the consumption of prohibited substances as a cultural practice. They go ahead to give examples of some countries in Middle East and Somali cultures that ...

Selected article from a scholarly journal: Coleridge's "Kubla Khan": Creation of Genius or Addiction? By Karen Mahar
In this article, Mahar doubts the creative ability and imagination of Coleridge as expressed in the poem "Kubla Khan." In fact, the author believes that Coleridge’s creativity, in this poem, is not natural, but influenced by opium. Mahar begins by acknowledging the literary abilities and skills of Coleridge as a chief Romantic poet and theorist (Mahar 1). The author further acknowledges that Coleridge’s most famous poems, including Kubla Khan, combine great elements of lyric genius and fantasy; however, the imagination ...
