Among the elderly sensory stimulation is an immense task because it demands the utilization of a wide range of activities and materials to stimulate the sense. This paper discusses the sensory stimulation of an elderly individual who lives by himself in a small, cramped, and under furnished environment. Stimulation techniques The first stimulation strategy is to take the elderly person outside, such as taking him out for a walk, which will help in stimulating their vision, smell, and touch sense. The outdoor walk will help the client to interact with other people, therefore, promoting social interactions. The second stimulation strategy is the use of nostalgia. Nostalgia is beneficial to patients, primarily those who have dementia and other memory-related disorders (Cieśla et al., 2019). In this case, it is essential to establish activities that the patient enjoyed the most in their earlier lives.  Nostalgia will help the patient to remember events and…

How immigration policies are made highly depends on its history with immigrants. It is, therefore, not even easy to collect data regarding immigrants because it has never been an issue for the country. In this regard, the policies made on immigrants in the country have been ad-hoc in nature because the focus has been on how to handle the challenge when it is experienced. There has, therefore, not been a proper plan for the immigrants as it could be in other countries.

In the past, the immigrants were welcomed because they were considered essential in helping the country’s…

Although native speakers of a particular language can be fluent without being considered proficient, having the ability to speak fluently two or more languages is considered as language proficiency. The main goal of the bilingual education program is to assist the English language learners to master the state curriculum and teach English to all participating students. This is done through explicit instruction in speaking, listening as well as writing in entire academic areas. Researches depicts that learning a second language provides a better understanding of individual own culture and language (Romaine, 2013). Bilingualism also enhances student’s creativity, thinking, as well as cognitive, social and analytical development compared to monolingual students. Researches further have shown that being bilingual has several cognitive benefits. Romaine, (2013) suggests that speaking a second language can mean that a person has a better attention span and can multitask better monolinguals.

Jamaica Trade Unions and Labor Relations Before gaining their independence from Britain, Jamaican leaders played a very significant role in the creation of trade unions as early as the 1930s. By enacting the Labor Relations and the Industrial Acts of 2006, the Jamaican legislature gave its citizens the right to create, join, and belong to trade unions of their choice. Despite those leaders becoming members of major political parties at the time, trade unions in Jamaica can operate without any interference by their government today. About 25% of the Jamaican working population belongs to specific associations. By membership, the government and other private employers are prohibited by the labor laws against discriminating and firing their employees. Also, interference with a worker’s participation in any union activity is an offense that attracts huge fines to any employer or individual who ignores such rights. Besides, there has been tremendous involvement of the Jamaican legislature in the inclusion of labor laws in the Industrial Relations Act. These laws mainly addressed the statutory arbitration mechanisms, the recognition of trade unions, establishment and implementation of…

mitigating information vulnerabilities Most organizations are perceived to experience insecurity incidence within their information systems every year. For organizations to mitigate information vulnerabilities, many technical and information management policies have been applied to ease the spread of the threats. Firms are required to educate and train employees on how to effectively adapt to the policies of mitigating the chances of vulnerabilities. By exposing the employees to the security measures reduces the possibility of presenting the organization assets and systems to the threats. Theoretical methods have been established to bridge the gap of employee understanding of the security policies on information technology threats. To enhance more understanding, professionals give simple guidelines to the workers to guide them when on daily activities.

The use of conceptual principles also aids in the improvement of information security management from the managers to reach the employees in the working areas. The managers are…

The Reality Vs. Perception Attribution theory is based on how individuals perceive events and how the events affect their thinking and behavior.  In this theory, persons try to establish why people do what they do, by attributing the causes to personal conduct. In the purpose of determining why a person did a thing, the use of the action is attributed to a specific behavior or trait (Martinko, 2018). A three-stage process underlies an attribution, and it begins with a person observing a behavior. After perception of behavior, the individual believes that the action was deliberately done, and then finally, the person must determine whether the behavior is attributed to an external or internal cause. The critical factors that contribute to achievement include effort, task difficulty, and personal abilities. The process of decision making in an organization depends highly on the relationship between perception of attributes and performance.  Causal attributions in organizations determine efficient reactions to success or failure. Perception is the ability to recognize and interpreting information in our environment and how we give meaning to that information (Martinko, 2018).…

Third-Party Organizations Dealing with insurance on behalf of patients is one of the most basic and core beliefs of the healthcare business. Third-party organizations pay for the insurance expenses covered for an insurance beneficiary. These organizations, which include government insurance like Medicaid and Medicare or private insurance like Blue Cross, are entities that pay medical claims of the insured and reimburse partially or fully the cost of healthcare provider services. There is more demand for transparency from consumers as they pay more for their healthcare. Third-party organizations stress that inadequacies in healthcare transparency lead to higher care cost and significant patient safety risks. These organizations can address transparency by collecting data about provider companies as driving improvements through transparency creates better care and considerable cost-efficiency. Increased transparency can help ensure that providers are accountable for patient cost and safety (Austin, McGlynn, & Pronovost, 2016). Third-party organizations contribute to increased transparency and patient safety improvement by combining healthcare quality data with cost data. Through sharing cost and quality information simultaneously by a third-party organization, they can aid the consumers to make…
