Student’s Name Professor’s Name Course Information Date Bill Gates Speech at First Commencement at Harvard It is rather interesting to note how peculiar the speech made at Harvard’s commencement in 2007 was. It was astonishing how a school dropout could return to his former University and give such a persuasive speech.

The examples he uses in his speech are specific and aimed at reducing the big gap created by the inequity that is ever-widening around the world. He uses an…

Thomas Szasz’s Views of Psychological Disorders Numerous criticisms were stated by Thomas Szasz regarding the medical model. One of the criticisms will focus on psychiatric interventions that have undergone proliferation following the use of the medical model. This has been highly seen in the interventions practiced to help control the individual suffering from a mental or psychological disorder. My view regarding this particular criticism will be in support of Szasz’s views. The medical model has been regarded by some as highly efficient when it comes to the diagnosis and treatment of an individual suffering from mental disorders. However, the medical model does pose a problem when it comes to the patient. No room will be left for the medical personnel to understand the patient. The medical model will focus more on controlling the patient based on the scientific understanding of how he or she behaves (Weiten, Dunn, & Hammer, 2014). According to Szasz, the medical model will have various implications that will be related to underlying values that will have been kept hidden by some psychiatrists. Szasz managed to…
The Mount Sinai Health System The Mount Sinai Health System is an integrated system of healthcare designed to provide excellent care to patients both locally and internationally. Located in the municipality of NYC, the hospital services large numbers of patients – both inpatient and outpatient by providing a wide range of care services from essential health checkups to advanced and specialized services. The hospital intends to launch a new Diabetes program that will see the hospital serve its patients better. The primary reason for the new system of care is that the former regime was found to be quite slow and inefficient in delivering services. Precisely, consumers felt disadvantaged because they had to wait long hours only to receive poor quality care. The new system is intended to be more comprehensive and to provide whole-patient care. In any system of care, consumers are less interested in many things that may worry about management. Specifically, many consumers only worry about: The ability of the system to provide them with the needed care within a short time. This is…
Describe the anatomy and physiology of the body system. Human anatomy refers to the scientific study of the structures of the body. The two areas of specialization in anatomy are macroscopic and microscopic anatomy. The study of visible, large body structures without the aid of magnification is referred to as macroscopic anatomy. In contrast, microscopic anatomy deals with the observation of small structures with the use of a microscope. It includes cytology, which studies cells and studying of tissues knows as histology. Two approaches are used by anatomists in the study of body structures: systematic anatomy and regional anatomy. Physiology studies how physics and chemistry organizations work together in the body to sustain functions of life such as movement and reproduction. It includes manipulations and measurements, as well as an observation with both the naked eye and the Microscope. Physiology centers in homeostasis, which is the steady internal condition maintained by living things. How is it determined that this body system is healthy? The body system is determined to be healthy through homeostasis. Homeostasis keeps a stable, moderately continuous setting…
Modelling concept example Student’s name Institutional affiliation In psychology, modeling is a social cognitive learning concept where an individual learns a given behavior through observation and imitating (Richardson, Dale & Marsh, 2014). This concept utilizes the use of live or symbolic models to demonstrate the desired action to an individual with the undesired behavior. This process is useful in the treatment of individuals with mental disorders such as phobias, stress, eating disorders, and the learning of social skills. An example of this process is used in the process of dealing with the fear of drug relapse. In this case, the patient was involved in a desensitization behavior process where a patient has introduced to the object or the situation he feared the most, drug addiction relapse. In the process, the patient observed a model confronting the situation of avoiding drugs that the patient feared and witnessed the model deal with the situation as the patient watched. The patient learned that fear is a situation that can…
Ethical Healthcare Issue of Doctor-Patient Relationship Based on Privacy and Confidentiality of a Patient The issue of confidentially on the doctor-patient relationship is very essential in healthcare. Doctors are required to observe privacy and confidentiality whenever they diagnose and treat patients in line with data collected and information provided by the patient. Thus, it is important that doctors realize the need to enhance their relationship with their patients to ensure patients communicate their concerns, symptoms, beliefs, and experience along with their expectations on the treatment procedures (Beltran-Aroca et al., 2016). In that regard, the following aspects emphasize the reasons for seeking support from the legislator on maintaining the confidentiality of patients by doctors. Importance of Seeking Legislator’s Vote The legislator should support the confidentiality of patients to enhance their privacy, autonomy, and dignity (Beltran-Aroca et al., 2016). Thus, the need to support the confidentiality of patients applies throughout their treatment process and extends after demise. Confidentiality of patients is also an essential element in medical ethics (Beltran-Aroca et al., 2016). Thus, the legislator should support confidentiality to enforce the rights…
