The field of health care is an extremely sensitive and critical field. Given the fact the practitioners of this field deal with the lives of people, it is of utmost importance to critically evaluate every decision and action made towards a certain case. This is because a single, small action can either make or break the condition of the patient. Which is why, I believe that the interviewee’s view that marketing food and healthcare products is the same, is actually very naïve. Health care marketing can be similar to marketing other products and services, in the sense ...

Neill Blomkamp’s allegorical sci-fi action adventure District 9 manages to fit a number of trenchant themes and issues relating to technology and politics within its unusual structure and audacious tone. Depicting a fictionalized world in which a derelict alien ship floats above Johannesburg, South Africa, with its indigent alien population (colloquially called ‘prawns’) segregated into districts and marginalized by its people, District 9 uses its setting in a powerful way to present a startling critique of the African apartheid that occurred in the late half of the twentieth century. In addition to its social criticisms about apartheid and ...

Worries about a decline in the birth rate are nothing new, at least in many developed nations. As early as 1909, Hoffman made it perfectly clear that a love for babies was not the reason that some in the U.S. fretted over the declining number of births. Rather, it was concern over the decreasing rate of births among “native white married women” while the “rate of reproduction [was] materially higher among the foreign element” (p. 676). Similar concerns are in evidence today in places such as Israel, where the comparatively high rate of births among the Arab population has ...

Concept of cultural competence nursing

Changing demographics in most nations require that nurses offer culturally competent care. Due to diverse populations, medical professionals have started to address the essence of creating a way to promote cultural competence in different healthcare situations. Primarily, cultural competence involves creating an appreciation of a person’s existence, consciousness, notions, and situation without permitting it to have an inappropriate effect on people from different backgrounds. Additionally, cultural competence demonstrates understanding and comprehension of the patient’s culture, embracing and accepting cultural diversity, and personalizing care based on the patient’s culture (Flowers, 2004). Public health nurses should pay attention ...

Nowadays, the studying of ethics has different faces. One can explore it through several prisms: either descriptive or normative, either metaethics or evolutionary one, etc. Frankly speaking, although each of these directions explores the same issues, the angles of view are rather different ones.

In particular, it influences children. Movies today promote the adult way of living. Maybe they do not describe it completely but still provide a great example of everyday life, which little children see. Still, the TV has its censorship, which splits both relevant and ...

Sociology is the study of society, of the relationships between individuals, of the rules governing social lives, but also of how to break the rules (Babbie, 1994).

The article “An idea Whose Time Has Come” questions the validity of many of the mass media information fed to individuals on a daily basis and challenges the authority of rules, demonstrating that nowadays, ...
