Criteria and effects of various substance abuse to persons who take it This article reviews the criteria and effects of various substance abuse to persons who take it in areas such as behavioral patterns after the intake of these drugs. The study encompasses ten separate drugs and multiple disorders that occur and are divided into substance-related and substance use disorders. In both groupings (adults and young people), all drugs taken in excess have a characteristic activation of the brain, and several behavioral patterns are seen to occur, such as feelings of pleasure. In adolescents, these drugs cause addiction and bring about craving, which leads to these teenagers always wanting to take these drugs. Adolescents, who are possibly first-time drug users, show very little evidence of intoxication I .ie in alcohol. However, adults who tend to drink more, have slurred speech and incoordination. Substance usage disorders involve vast problems that arise from drug usage. They include taking the drugs in more massive amounts than usual, but one tends to try and cut down this usage, but the addiction has already occurred.…

Grand nursing theories contain perspective on how nurses can take better care of patients (Alligood 2017). In the theories, there are variances on the principles proposed by the theorist. Comparatively some theories appear to be better than the others in different situations of applicability. In my view, the theory proposed by Watson’s is universally applicable in all cultures and to patients with all care needs. Watson’s theory is known as the caring theory. Watson based his Theory upon ten curative factors. The factors include Loving-kindness, in which Watson proposed that nurses should show equitable love and care to all patients. Regardless of the patient’s form of aliments, cultural orientation or religious beliefs. Further, Watson proposed that nurses when attending to patients they should be authentically present. The concept of the authenticity of presence denotes that when nurses are physically present with their patients they should genuinely attend to patient’s needs with responsiveness and concern.

Integrated Review: Relapse and Re-hospitalization of Schizoaffective Patients Relapse and Re-hospitalization of Schizoaffective Patients Researchers conducting studies on mental disorders in most organizations discovered that relapses and re-hospitalization was a common occurrence in patients who stop taking antipsychotic medication. Chien, Mui, Gray, & Cheung (2016) state that “While current guidelines for schizophrenia care recommend antipsychotic medication to be essential for long-term maintenance treatment, nonadherence to this medication is found to be a predictor factor for re-hospitalization and relapse.” Although other factors can attribute to increased relapses and re-hospitalization among such patients, suspension of antipsychotic medication is the most common cause across the world. Although studies on other factors that may lead to relapses are underway, this paper presents results from studies on the effect of antipsychotic drugs cessation on patients with mental illness. Mental illnesses affect patients and their extended families and, therefore, psychotherapy impacts on the patients alongside their family members on some occasions. Results indicate that for schizophrenia patients, suspension of medication results in relapse and hospitalization long after treatment. This purpose of this paper is to identify…

FUNCTIONALISM AND CONFLICT THEORIES Functionalism is a theory that seeks to define the structures that define the society and the manners in which the community maintains its stability. Functionalism is a unique lens that presents a community as a complex system that is comprised of various components or parts. The parts are designed to work towards a common objective, which is promoting stability and solidarity. In other words, every part of a society has a defined role. A problem experienced in a single component of society can disrupt the stability of the whole institution. One good example of functionalism in society is the family unit. It is one of the primary parts that define a community. A family has the role of ensuring the continuity of the nation by enhancing the ethical procreation of the human race. A disruption in the family as a component of the society would result in the instability of the whole community. Other elements would prove to be irrelevant. For example, the government would have no role because there are no human subjects to be…
