In addition to the increased misconception of their religion being associated with the vice, they also face cultural challenges that dictate how they are supposed to live. There are numerous studies that have been carried out among the Arab women on the subject of their mental health. This paper will address the epidemiology of their condition, focusing on the special group on the immigrants, while comparing them with their counterparts at home and ...

According to personality theorists, Martin Luther King posses one of the rarest kinds of personality type, the INFJ. This is based on the 16 Myers- Briggs personality type which is labelled as “The Advocate.” The personality type makes up less than one percent (1%) of the human population (16 Personalities, 2017). From the title of personality type itself, it is easy to understand why Martin Luther King falls under this type. But what are the most surprising components of INFJ? First, one of the separating factors of the INFJ personality type is its level of being an introvert. This ...

Approaches in configuring Clinical Decision Support (CDS) System

The development of an effective CDS system to facilitate the healthcare delivery of a chain of hospitals and outpatient clinics warrants the systematic incorporation of clinical guidelines, documentation templates, patient summaries, HPI and medication history recording tools, condition-specific orders and diagnostic support system across the electronic health record (EHR) (CMS, CLINICAL DECISION SUPPORT:More Than Just ‘Alerts’ Tipsheet, 2014). The association of these approaches in EHR is warranted in the context of incorporating the entire aspects of patient care to facilitate the patient outcomes across the clinical settings. The EHR across clinical settings requires the effective incorporation of the research ...

Background

Domestic violence has occurred for as long as their has been a written record. This is evidenced by laws, usually permitting it, throughout antiquity. It has most likely existed since humanity began, as it is observed in our closest genetic relatives, and seems to be stimulated by very primal parts of the brain. The Journal of the American Medical association began to describe battered child syndrome in the 1960’s, and between the beginning of humanity and when domestic abuse began to be described as a societal problem, little if anything was done. Since then, the United States has ...

Introduction

Within the industry of human resource management, the roles of being an effective strategic partner and an employee champion, or an employee advocate are considered to be mutually exclusive. However, this could be a form of identity crisis throughout the organization because the HR operations may need the company to be a strategic business partner, however, it always will cause a form of conflict to be considered an advocate for the employees of the company Collins & Smith, 2006). For instance, the human resource manager primary focus is to maximize the full capacity of human capital that would strategically be ...

Patient A, who has a diagnosis of dementia, will most likely be on the receiving end of the least amount of discrimination from those around her. It’s true that she will fall foul of the prejudice (though lack of empathy might be a better phrase than prejudice) which exists against the elderly, and she may also feel some pushback for her second marriage, particularly if it was due to some error on her own part, but otherwise, her life and previous career would bring her respect. Her diagnosis does not surprise me, because at eighty-eight, patient A is ...

Introduction

Fathers should be treated equally as mothers in family court decisions as too many times the mother is favored because of the nurturing stereotype. Fathers are denied the opportunity to take care of their children in a situation where nurturance and care are needed. As such, the stereotypes are helpful in the evaluation of the unambiguous nature of the fathers in nurturing children. Mothers have been favored from time to time following their ability to take care of their children. Upon a court case, the mother is viewed as the favorite in handling the children in case of a ...

Examination of Performance Review Conflict

Examination of Performance Review Conflict Performance review conflict can create serious problems in the public sector. In reviewing an employee’s performance, the supervisor considers self-reported performance assessment, his/her observations of an employee’s work, and feedback from other supervisors and peers who had the opportunity to oversee or observe the work of the employee. However, ratings for each criterion depends, in part, on the subjective interpretation of the supervisor.

Abstract

Although obliged to cover issues in their entirety, with no distortions made in the process, American media tend to misrepresent the reality, as was the case with the depiction of Muammar Gaddafi’s regime implications for the social welfare possibly for political reasons. The noble cause of saving the international image of the USA formerly allied with the late leader in the wake of the Gaddafi demonization could have been the driving force of misrepresentation of the myth related in part to ethical minorities. The knowledge of non-consequentialism and its principles, whether unconsciously or otherwise, allows readers to perceive ...

The role of the nurse in the contemporary healthcare setting is wide and it transcends beyond the traditional concept of the roles and scope of work for a nurse. Patient needs have diversified in the same way as populations volumes and numbers seeking care have increased. The healthcare system is demanding more from the nurses and it is apparent that nurses have to adapt to these needs if at all they have to assure the patient population of positive outcomes (Fennimore & Wolf, 2011). For nurse managers, the role is even wider. Not only do they have to work closely ...

Introduction

As the manager of an IT company experiencing a merger or acquisition, it is the perfect opportunity to reevaluate, or improve the situation because the customers would normally expect the worst if they are unaware of the process. “A great deal of the mergers fails to deliver the promised improvements which were previously specified and it interferes with the shareholder value. This may happen to be the result of knowing that merger or acquisition decisions are inherent tradeoffs” (McLelland, Goldsmith, & McMahon, 2014). Companies tend to focus more on the aspects of reducing their overall operational costs or worrying about ...

Introductory Remarks

At this point, it is no secret the American society shows a degree of tolerance lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgendered individuals never enjoyed in the 20th century. The question emerges of why it is that people have grown more tolerant towards and supportive of LGBT individuals. Media categories, such as television and films considered the carriers of culture, influence people’s perception, as does the culture itself shaping it. Thus, the way such phenomenon as same-sex relationships along with their participants are depicted in television and movies determines how tolerantly the society will perceive such people. The major research ...

“I Got No Quarrel with The VietcongNo Vietcong Ever Called Me Nigger.” Sometimes words resonate through time.

Some, however, will also remember him as an advocate of social justice, speaking out against war, discrimination against African Americans, and support for peace and Islam. Whether as a prominent member of the sporting community or a fierce advocate for social change, Muhammad Ali will regardless be considered an influential ...

Vital stakeholders in advocating & protection of children's rights

The current global society faces several challenges one of them being the increase in the number of orphaned and abandoned children. In war-affected regions such as the ongoing war in Syria, several children have been left to fend for themselves after the death of their parents/guardians. In other cases, early marriages have been the cause for the increase in the number of abandoned children. According to recent statistics from UNICEF, the number of orphaned children in 2016 is 132 million (Grovogui, 2016). The same organization reports that there are over 30 million children forced to live away from their ...

As adults, there are times when we reflect on our childhood years and feel very emotional about situations whereby those vested with our care and protection failed to consider what was in our best interest. More often than not, children feel that their voices are not being heard, that they are being treated unfairly or that their real problems are trivialized and sometimes ignored. Child advocacy is all about speaking out on what is in the best interests of children, their needs and rights. Some of the issues in child advocacy include child abuse, foster care, parental substance abuse, ...

The idea that schools should provide accommodations for those students who experience difficulty and disability is a relatively new one. In the past, primary, secondary, and tertiary educational institutions existed as institutions; however, as the sciences advanced and more became known about the nature of human learning disabilities, institutions of all different types and sizes began to realize that a learning disability is not necessarily associated with an intellectual disability. With this realization came the development of a number of important programs, all of which have one particular end goal: to develop an educational system in which people can ...

The three types of traditional Japanese theater are Noh, Kabuki, and Bunraku. Noh is the original Japanese theatrical form, and uses music and symbols to allude to past events or myths in Japanese history. There are five different types of Noh plays, ranging from focusing on Gods to the loss of a loved one. Kabuki is a theatrical form developed in 1596 to appeal to the mass public; that is, the common people and merchants. Women were forbidden to perform in Kabuki plays, though it was founded by a woman. Kabuki plays traditionally feature bright costumes and lots of ...

Advanced nursing practice is recognized as an advanced level of nursing care that uses in-depth nursing knowledge and nursing expertise to meet health care needs. Unlike traditional nursing practice, advanced nursing practice involves numerous streams of activities like: analysis, knowledge synthesis, critical thinking, decision making, interpreting, evidence based practice and managerial/administrative roles. The evolution of advanced nursing practitioners happened when nurses were expected to take extra responsibility in addition to their traditional role. Due to lack of a sufficient number of doctors to attend to people in remote areas and in families, nurses were given the added responsibility to ...

Policy Positions Paper: Use of Medical Marijuana in Georgia

The use of marijuana (Cannabis sativa) can be traced back more than 5000 years ago related to medical, recreational, and spiritual reasons (Bostwick, 2012). The United States Pharmacopeia has included it since 1850’s, and until the 1930’s physicians provided prescriptions for it for a number of physical complaints (Narcanon International, 2016). In 1970, the United States Congress determined it had no valid therapeutic value and categorized it as a Schedule I illegal substance. However, a number of sources have stated that marijuana has no addictive properties (Samsha, 2016). The National Institute on Drug Abuse state this is ...

A The nursing profession is characterized by dynamism, precision and disciplined due to the delicate nature of care- giving that it primarily involves. Different organizations have different goal and different strategy to guide their healthcare staff to deliver the better quality of service to the patients. The organizations aim to instill the organizational goals into their staff in different phases of their life i.e., during their education, practice and evidence- based research. The set of goals and strategies helps them function effectively in the organization. The nursing boards play a major role in the regulation of the nursing workforce ...

Social movements are collective behaviors that are organized, purposeful, institutionalized, but their actions cannot be repeated. They seek some limited social change and tend to focus on a narrow group of people but advocate for radical changes. They also advocate for limited social change but tend to affect the changes across the entire society. The past analyses of social movements and social movement organizations have often been assumed to have a link with the frustrations and grievances of a collectivity of actors. The theoretical centrality of the analyses directs the socials movements away from its intense emphasis on the ...

One of the most elongated conflicts in the world has surely been related to the Jews and Arabs over the territory that defines the modern state of Israel. What many people fail to notice is the gravity of the conflict and how the conflict surely is not recent. What makes both the conflict and the peace process so complex between these two groups is that their cultures and religious beliefs date back thousands of years, (Jospe, R., 1995). To this end, they have many religious holy sites, for example, that are sacred to both faiths due to the territorial ...

The current shortage in the number of registered nurses in the US is expected to increase to more than 500 000 registered nurses by the year 2025 (MacKusick & Minick, 2010). The current nurse turnover rate in the United States, on the other hand, is 16.5%. This rate is also projected to rise over the next decade (Mazurenko, Gupte, & Shan, 2012). High rate of nurse turnover is one of the factors contributing to the nursing shortage in the US. It is estimated that 30%-50% of all new registered nurses change their positions or choose to leave the profession completely ...

Islam is a religion, which started in the 7th century in the Arabian Peninsula, precisely in Mecca. Its believers trust in the existence of Mohammad. It is believed to have originated from Prophet Mohammad, who was visited by Angel Gabriel for about 23 years. In this period, he received revelations with which the Quran is composed. In general, the Islam religion is revealed to mean ‘the one who submits to Allah' (“What Is Islam? - Political Islam”). Most importantly, they believe in the five pillars of faith, prayer, giving, fasting and pilgrimage. It is also a monotheistic religion, but ...

A “salary bumping game” involves skilled professions whose number within a community is limited. This, therefore, means that the supply of such labor is restricted. The game starts when a group of these employees in one organization come up together and start pressuring the organization to increase their pay (McConnell, 2012). These employees can be represented by an advocate or the head of the department. For example, an anesthesiologist can represent nurse anesthetics in their bid to pressure the organization to increase their pay. According to my view, salary bumping is a professional practice as it gives the employees ...

Personal and professional accountability

However, I have a high aspiration of ensuring that I become an expert in the field of nursing, I plan to achieve this by progressing my education to highest levels attainable within the nursing profession. I subscribe to the school of thought that self-fulfillment comes about when one achieves whatever goals he/she has set for himself/herself. Pursuing higher education will, therefore, help me achieve my career ...

The United Sates has been considered as one of the countries in the world where advocacy for women rights is prevalent. However, the history of women rights during the pre-colonial period isn’t a good one as it was marred by discrimination and abuse of women’s rights. The society was more male chauvinistic than it is today and there were no equal opportunities between men and women. The height of discrimination was even felt on basic such as education as women seldom got chances to pursue education to the level of men. The debate on women’s rights ...

1. In a globalized workplace, many companies actively seek to move their base of operations and manufacturing plants to cities and countries with a low-cost labor force. What steps, if any, can workers take, either within a union or outside of a union, to protect their jobs and prevent companies from offshoring their positions and responsibilities? Globalization has been the primary driving force behind the offshoring of jobs. Offshoring can be comingled with the occurrence of outsourcing, but the two are actually divergent concepts. Companies outsource when management hires another company to perform work or services the hiring company ...

Political ideology is a dominant dogma that helps to shape the party activities and what the people that support it believe in. The dogma remains the main philosophy that shapes the party’s slogan and thoughts in everything they promise people to trust them with power (Jillson 8). On the other hand, political sociology is the promise of the party to respond to social problems that affect the people and render solutions as guided by the political ideologies. Democratic Party has been a very popular party in the United States of America alongside the Republican formed in 1928, making ...

America exists as a highly ethnically diverse democratic country. In the mid-twentieth century, Edward Murrow voiced a budding hope about the improving standards of equality across races and genders (NPR, 2005). Equality within the American society describes the equitable sharing of all national resources across diverse social groups such as race, gender, and sexual orientation. Since the eradication of segregation in America, numerous strategies aimed at standardizing healthcare across races have been put in place. However, despite these efforts, there still exist persisting and puzzling health disadvantages to African Americans (Mays, Cochran, & Barnes, 2007).

The purpose of this letter is to give more comprehensive details as to why consider Cardozo Law School to be an ideal fit and the reasons for why I would like to attend. I believe I bring two important qualities that will make me a successful lawyer.

Technology advancement in the medical sector has had an important contribution in the pathology of many diseases. One of the innovations has been, testing human DNA, commonly referred to as Genetic testing. The procedure involves determining the DNA sequence and changes in the DNA sequence of specific genomes in a human body (McCormick and Connors 317).

Religious groups such as Christians have also expressed their disappointments over capital punishment, as it goes against the wishes and plans of God. The various reasons that state carrying out the process hold ...

Reasons why the stakeholder theory is considered a bold proposal

In a narrower sense, it is any party which is extremely significant to the success, as well as, survival of an entity. Their examples include customers, the community and also the owners of the corporation. Essentially, the stakeholder theory would thus refer to the appropriate business procedures that advocate for morals and also values in the management of business entities. This is very significant for the promotion of the ethically desired behaviors in the operations of the business. In relation ...
