Notes On Nursing - What It Is, And What It Is Not

by Florence Nightingale

1,31€ + 10% CARD

 Neither in my own nursing education at the B.S.N. nor at the M.S.N. level, was it even suggested, much less required, that I read any of Florence Nightingale''s original writings. Even as a nurse educator for over 30 years, I did not require my students to read her writings either. After reading this book, I now believe it is a void in the education of a nurse not to read at least some of the writings of the founder of modern day nursing. Notes on Nursing would be an excellent choice. This book introduces and discusses, to some degree, many of the concepts nurses have been dealing with since before my entrance into the field in the 1969, and certainly ever since. Included in these pages are concepts such as holistic health, home health, alternative therapies, health prevention and maintenance, the role of women in nursing and in everyday life, nursing administration, leadership, communications skills, mind/body and body/mind relationships. Her theory on the use of light, fresh air, warmth, cleanliness, quiet, and the proper selection and administration of diet is also well explored. Some of the comments are unexpected and very insightful. - Anita S. Kessler, R.N., M.S.N., M.Ed. Florence Nightingale was the founder of the modern nursing profession. She single handedly revolutionized medical treatment with her writings on nursing. Anita S. Kessler is an R. N. With Master Degrees in both nursing and education. She has been an educator of nurses for more than thirty years.

Ethics And Mental Health - The Patient, Profession And Community

by Garry Walter e Michael Robertson

70,21€ + 10% CARD

 The field of ethics is expanding and has assumed new significance as a compulsory part of study for psychiatrists and all mental health professionals. Ethics and Mental Health: The Patient, Profession and Community presents a new approach to these ethical dilemmas that have become an increasing part of modern practice.The book begins by exploring current normative theories of psychiatric ethics. It describes how empirical methods can make codes of conduct more representative of professional values. Considering their previous work, concepts of justice, and the moderate communitarian position, the authors outline their methodology, which argues that mental health professionals exist within a perpetual state of tension, caused by conflicts between the Hippocratic Oath, personal values, notions of social justice, and the potentially harmful influences of their social role.Applying their theory to the area of involuntary psychiatric treatment, the authors address the context of psychiatric practice and the moral agency of psychiatrists. They outline the different influences on the craft of psychiatry to better illustrate the diverse forces that impact moral deliberation and the practice of ethics in mental health. In doing so, they cover areas as diverse as cultural, economic, scientific, and political domains. The final section of the book applies the methodology to contemporary problems in mental health ethics, formulating how mental health clinicians can approach these quandaries. The book brings a new perspective to classic dilemmas from the past, to contemporary challenges, and in anticipation, to new concerns that will inevitably arise in a dynamic and complex professional context.

The Braden Scale assesses six key risk factors for the development of pressure ulcers: sensory perception, moisture, activity level, mobility, nutritional status, and friction/shear. However, ICU patients face specific challenges such as sedation, immobility, and specialized nutrition, which increase their risk for pressure ulcers and complicate the use of the scale.

Impact Of Violent Conflict On Healthcare Delivery System In Bawku, Ghana. A Comprehensive Analysis

~~11,20€~~ 10,08€ 10% OFF

 Scientific Essay from the year 2023 in the subject Health - Health system, , language: English, abstract: Violent conflicts exert profound ramifications on healthcare delivery, particularly evident in conflict-stricken areas such as Bawku, Ghana. This research employs a mixed-methods approach to comprehensively explore the repercussions of violent conflict on the healthcare system in Bawku. Structured surveys, in-depth interviews, and focus group discussions were conducted with healthcare personnel, local authorities, and community members, totaling 150 participants. The study reveals distressing damage to healthcare infrastructure, including diagnostic instruments and surgical tools, rendering them non-functional, thus impairing precise diagnoses, interventions, and patient monitoring. The conflict's impact extends to utility availability, with electricity, water supply, and sanitation systems severely compromised, exacerbating healthcare challenges. The interconnectedness of healthcare components further magnifies the impact. Beyond compromising physical health, conflicts erode trust in healthcare systems. Despite limitations, this research underscores the urgency of addressing these challenges to secure community well-being and sustain healthcare accessibility in conflict affected regions.

Effectiveness Of Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (Cpap)

by Muflaha Jafar

~~21,20€~~ 19,08€ 10% OFF

 Bachelor Thesis from the year 2023 in the subject Health - Fitness and Health Management, grade: A, , course: Health, language: English, abstract: The condition known as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, or COPD, is common and frequently results in hospital admissions for emergency care. It is associated with elevated rates of morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. A vital component of hospital care for acute breathing difficulties, resulting mostly from cardiac coronary artery disease, is persistent positive airway pressure, or CPAP. Although it seems sense that early CPAP application in the pre-hospital situation would improve the health of patients, there aren't many outcomes research studies to support this theory. This systematic review and meta-analysis set out to find out how well CPAP worked for COPD patients in out-of-hospital settings. I evaluated possible publications as an impartial reviewer after doing a literature assessment of additional literature and bibliographic databases. Publications that contrasted CPAP therapy (along with standard care) with no CPAP for COPD in the prehospital context were considered. Studies examining other non-invasive ventilation techniques were excluded. The Cochrane Collaboration's recommendations were used to evaluate the methodology. The frequency of intubations, death rates, medical conditions, and dyspnea score were among the outcomes. To quantify the pooled effect of CPAP on outcomes, forest plots were built.

Improving Communication With Patients In A Hospital Setting

by Chris Andersen

~~6,69€~~ 6,02€ 10% OFF

 Essay from the year 2023 in the subject Nursing Science - Nursing Management, grade: 5.0, Aga Khan University, course: Masters of Science in Advanced Practice Nursing, language: English, abstract: During a hospital rotation in a geriatric ward, a notable incident highlighted the complexities of patient care, especially in the realm of pharmaceutical decision-making. A 90-year-old immobile patient's weight was absent from records, leading to a challenging situation when prescribing paracetamol. This absence of vital information introduced emotional and ethical dilemmas for the healthcare team, emphasizing the criticality of accurate patient records. Reflecting on this encounter, emotions of anxiety and concern were prominent, showcasing the profound responsibility healthcare professionals bear. Evaluating the incident revealed both strengths, like adaptability, and weaknesses, notably the healthcare system's sensitivity to information gaps. A subsequent SWOT analysis further delineated opportunities, such as enhancing interprofessional communication, and threats, like jeopardizing patient safety due to information deficiencies. This reflective process culminated in an action plan emphasizing the adoption of comprehensive patient information systems, bolstering communication among healthcare providers, and investing in professional development centered on ethical decision-making. Ultimately, this incident underscores the intricate nature of pharmaceutical practice and advocates for systemic improvements to ensure safer, patient-centered care.
