Home health nursing Home health nursing offers in-home health care services for patients and families. I agree with the author that there are certain additional services that in-home nurses should perform for the wellbeing of the patient. They must ensure that they visit patients frequently to provide that all the time the patients are at comfort though the author does not highlight in-home nursing face more inconveniences than when working in hospitals. In hospitals, the patients are within short distances, and thus they are accessible easily. In-home, it is challenging mainly when a nurse is serving two clients receiving services in different places. I agree with the author that in-home nurses should coordinate and keep family members informed on the progress and needs of the patient. The family members are the immediate people who take care of the patient when both physicians and nurses are not around. As a result, they need to be informed so that they may not mishandle the patient. In the second paragraph, the author mentioned some of the critical roles played by in-home nurses. He…
Direct to consumer advertising Direct to consumer advertising is not a common practice in most countries in the world. However, in New Zealand and the USA, the practice is legal, and this fact allows the manufacturers or sellers of drugs to advertise to consumers as their patients (Ritter et al., 2017). This practice enables the promotion of the use of certain drugs to consumers by giving balanced information on its risks and advantages. Impact Significantly, various effects are visible in the community as a result of this practice. For instance, there has been a rise in cases of self-prescription among individuals in the community. As a result of the excessive information on the effects and contents of the drugs, the consumers do not seek professional advice (Hudson et al., 2016). Virtually, by advertising to consumers as patients and not professionals, already eliminates the professionals and goes directly to the patient. In essence, the rise in cases of misuse of over the counter drugs, which is widely becoming viewable as drug abuse may be attributed to this practice. Most drug abusers…

Second Policy Memo Description and Significance of the Issue under Examination The United States is now more than ever exposed to dangerous terrorist elements particularly because it has ceased to be an external affair considering the threats posed by internal players, who are majorly American citizens. The reality of this position is validated by the increased incidences of radicalization among American citizens, who have then been used to launch attacks in the country. Accordingly, there is a dire need for the country to pursue and implement practical measures to curb the growing threat by constricting the internal and external environments and rendering it difficult for the execution of terrorist operations. Hence, measures must be pursued to enable the U.S. government to procure and transfer false documents, curb the ferrying of terrorists between different locations and impede the laundering, funding and transferring of funds directed towards terrorist operations. It means cracking down on internal and external operational cells and financial and logistical support networks that threaten the country. The significance of this issue is paramount, considering the international and transnational nature…

What is the Christian concept of the imago dei? How might it be important to healthcare, and why is it relevant? Reply to 2 answers below, 1 reply should be half of the page with 1 or more reference. First answer: Christians’ understanding of Imago dei or “the image of God” is that “human beings are created in the image of God which confer dignity and honor on every person, regardless of their social, mental or physical status (Shelly & Miller, 2006). To support this belief, Christians often refer to Genesis 1:26-27 in the bible that reads, “Then God said, ‘Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. And let them have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over the livestock and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.’ So, God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.”(Religious Facts, 2017) Knowing that we are all created in the image of God helps reiterate…

Immigrant and Refugees Health as a Community Mental Health Issue Immigrants and refugees experience stressors and irritants deriving from their experiences of migrating into host countries. These stressors initiate mental health challenges, which are further exacerbated by the low access to care that characterise this population group (Derr, 2016). Immigrant and refugee populations in Canada, for example, are at a high risk of untreated mental health conditions due to difficulties involved in accessing and using the available mental health services (Salami, Salma, & Hegadoren, 2019). The goal of this literature review is to analyse the available scholarship with the view to not only identifying the factors that make it difficult for immigrants and refugees to access and use mental health services but also exploring the solutions for addressing these dynamics. Rationale The issue of immigrant mental health is an important one, in large part due to the realisation that mental health is essential to the overall health and well-being of this population group. The second justification embeds in the fact that the vulnerability of immigrant and refugee populations to mental…
Barriers to Healthcare Access for Clients from Puerto Rican and Cuban Americans Introduction Cultural competency is an essential principle in healthcare since most patients are getting treatment from physicians from the majority group. Therefore, a healthcare provider is culturally competent when there is a collaborative partnership between the patient and the healthcare provider that provides for the satisfactory and successful delivery of healthcare. As a result, the healthcare provider by all means finds ways of overcoming language barriers and appreciates differences in cultures. The 2017 United States Census Bureau reports that 58.8 million Latinos/Hispanics live in America, which includes 18.1% of the total population of the United States (OMH, 2020). The Latino ethnicity includes Cubans, Mexicans, Puerto Ricans, South or Central Americans, or any individuals from the Spanish culture regardless of the race. Determinants of the health of the Latinos comprise factors such as language or cultural barriers, lack of access to preventive care, and the lack of health insurance. The language barrier is the major obstacle to obtaining healthcare for this ethnicity. Most health facilities depend on ad hoc…
meaning and applicability of art therapy in understanding and treating psychological disorders The primary goal of psychotherapy is to help clients heal psychologically following an episode or a series of incidents of psychological disturbance. The psychotherapist must always focus on building a stable relationship with the client to establish trust and confidentiality. It is only through the established confidentiality that the client can freely discuss their psychological problems to facilitate care. There are five common types of psychotherapy approaches, including cognitive therapy, behaviour therapy, psychoanalytic and psychodynamic therapy, humanistic therapy, and integrative therapy. The underlying factor in all these approaches is the use of appropriate and effective communication strategies to understand the client to come up with the right intervention. The psychoanalytic and psychodynamic therapy approach relies on the establishment of close client-therapist relationships to uncover the unconscious meanings and drivers of psychological problems. Art therapy is a common psychodynamic approach in psychotherapy. This paper reflective analyses the meaning and applicability of art therapy in understanding and treating psychological disorders by understanding the connections between psychic processes and previously repressed,…
