Changing Attitudes Regarding Disease, Health and Wellness
[ send me this paper ]
This
6 page report discusses the ways that attitudes have changed
regarding perceptions of disease, health, and wellness. At one
time, virtually all disease was seen as something shameful and
related to some type of lack of character or strength in an
individual. Those beliefs than evolved into an unwavering faith
in modern medicine and the assumption that anything a medical
professional prescribed in terms of drugs or procedures was the
only way to be healthy and physically whole. As a result,
individual belief patterns regarding health and wellness became
based on fear, shame, and treatment rather than on wholeness,
wellness, and personal decision-making. That attitude has begun
to change and it is not a moment too soon. Bibliography lists 6
sources.

[ send me this paper ]
This is a 3 page paper discussing child abuse. The four types of child abuse: physical, sexual, emotional and neglect affects over 879,000 children in the United States on an annual basis. In the past decade, it has been found that over 3 million suspected cases are reported each year. Perpetrators of the abuse are parents, caregivers, babysitters, relatives, and foster parents among others. While the rates of male and female children are around the same, female children suffer four times the rate of sexual abuse than males. In addition to the annual rates of abuse, approximately 1,200 children die each year from abuse and neglect with 85% of child fatalities occurring in children under the age of six. Each year new prevention and treatment programs are developed on national and state levels in order to lessen the incidence of child abuse through support programs and education.

Civil Monetary Penalties and Relevant State Statutes
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page paper discussing the Office of Inspector General (OIG)'s apparent reversal of itself in gainsharing arrangements between hospitals and physicians that strive to hold the line on spiraling health care costs. The paper demonstrates that OIG has not been inconsistent, that its initial rulings addressed treatment of individuals and that its subsequent agreement addressed treatment of entire groups of patients. The paper discusses Florida statute 456.053 in the same light. This law prevents physicians from referring patients to other physicians with whom the original could have a monetary link. Thus one doctor in a large practice cannot refer a patient to another in the same practice. Bibliography lists 6 sources.

Clinical Supervision in Great Britain
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page paper discussing the role of clinical supervision in nursing. For the nurse involved in direct patient care, the result of the integration of national policy, health care governance, technical competence and positive client perspective is a continually-evolving program of continuous improvement and ongoing education. Whether that education is formal or experiential is of little consequence in forming a standard approach to direct patient care, but it can have implication in individual nurses’ professional development. That development must remain market oriented, but also remain in compliance with national policy. Bibliography lists 8 sources.
