It was totally saving a cost and area. Moreover, if you have a problem with the size of the fonts, you can resize and adjust the font size depending on yourself. It was really help for those who have an optical problem. This disease is called hyperopia and it was caused by an imperfection in the eye often when the eye ball is too short or the lens cannot become round enough. Books usually with font size of 12 or 14 which is big enough for most of us but not for them who are suffering from hyperopia as they cannot see clearly writing in font size 12 or even 14. Old people like to read a lot too as most of them have a lot of free time to read since most of them have retired because they are no longer able to work. E-book is a great solution to their problem as the size of the writing is not fixed. This means that one can make it bigger or smaller for instance one can make the font size 45 or 10. This should be a great help to old readers especially those who are suffering from hyperopia. Furthermore, you also can turn the E-book to the audio book by using a software that can convert it.

The Beginner Nurse

CHAPTER 1 PREPARATION TO THE JOB A. Transition from beginner to Professional Before a nurse can become effective as a health care provider he or she should be psychologically and physically prepared for the job. Psychological preparedness means that the mental set and emotional state of the nurse must be ready for the everyday routines and stressors in the job. Psychological preparedness requires assessment of the self or awareness of the self. The nurse should know own strengths and limitations as a beginner. The nurse strengths include the academic theories and trainings in the BSN degree. This will require the new nurse to refresh self about those principles, fundamentals, and theories learned from the study. Limitations include lack of expert skills and dexterity (speed and efficiency in the use of hands) of nursing procedures as hospital trainings as a BSN student were not enough to encounter those specific procedures. Expert nurses in the workplace shall serve as source of the skills not encountered in academic trainings. Proper and appropriate attitude must be adopted in adjusting into working with colleagues who had earned skills and knowledge by their tenure in their job and the environment they are used to. The beginner nurse must use therapeutic self to gain confidence and trust with existing staff in the hospital. B. Hospital Policies The beginner nurse, if not given the opportunity to have job orientation, should strive to know the existing policies of the hospital. Policies which pertains to absences, tardiness, documentations, and safety of the clients should be given due attention. The beginner nurse cannot put the safety of the patient by sudden absence or tardiness from the job. The nurse should put to mind that the welfare and safety of the patients are his or her main concerns. C. Personal matters A beginner nurse and until such time he or she had become a professional should never allow personal matters to interfere in their responsibilities in the work. This is part of the emotional preparedness of the nurse in order to maintain therapeutic use of the self. CHAPTER 2 THE ROUTINE WORK OF A GENERAL NURSE PRACTITIONER There are areas in the hospitals that have common routines. Routines are nature of works or responsibilities that are normally done and repeated throughout succeeding shifts of the work. The routine works in departments like Surgical, Medical, Pediatrics, Isolation, and some critical care units such as the ICU and CCU may have some similarities. But special areas like Operating Theater, Delivery Room, OPD, Emergency, and ambulatory units may have their own unique routines. Routines in the special areas in the hospital are not taken into consideration in this handbook but individual items may be applicable to such areas. A. First Endorsement of the Shift First endorsement is defined as an endorsement of an outgoing nurse in a shift to an incoming nurse. The main purpose of this endorsement is to ensure continuity of care and avoid errors as well as missing vital interventions to the patient such as medications and special instructions. Endorsement will also safeguard personal safety of the incoming nurse of cases that are infectious that deserves special infection precautions. Below is the table for chronological items for endorsement. Table 1. Relevant Chronological Data for Patient Endorsement Patient’s name and Bed Number Diagnosis (medical) Attending Physician Age of the patient Medications Special InstructionsOngoing Interventions Laboratories and Diagnostics Special Needs of the Patient Latest Vital Signs THE PATIENT’S NAME and BED NUMBER Knowing your patient is an indispensible part of safety of care. This is to avoid mix up in the identification and documentation of the right patient. Though merely knowing the name of the patient is not enough this has to be validated by the incoming nurse when the nurse performs his or her own rounds. The endorsement shall give the name and the bed number of the patient. DIAGNOSIS Knowledge of the diagnosis or diagnoses are both for the safety of the nurse and the client as well. What is endorsed is the medical diagnosis as determined by the attending physician. With knowledge of the medical diagnosis, a nurse can immediately provide appropriate independent and dependent interventions per clinical judgment as he or she performs the nurse rounds. ATTENDING PHYSICIAN Endorsing the name of the attending physician will alert the nurse who to immediately refer to in the event of emergency or urgent situation arises. There should be an established system of how to reach attending physician or an alternate physician in case of emergent situation. One such system is the permanent list of telephone number to which the physician can be reached. If there is special consultant/s assigned to the patient it might as well be included too in the endorsement. AGE OF THE PATIENT Age of the patient is necessary for endorsement information so that the incoming nurse can anticipate what nursing approach to implement. MEDICATIONS As a matter of principle, errors in medication are never tolerated. However, no matter we desire for perfection, the chance and occurrence of an error may always be present. Errors in medication have different aspects. See Table 2 for types of medication errors. Wrong medication administered once absorbed by the body may have from nil to serious effects. We cannot afford to wait for a serious incident before becoming conscious of the proper medication. Table 2. Some Types of Medication Error 1. Failure to properly document medication. 2. Missing to carry out medication advice such as new prescription, modification of medicine, and discontinuance of medicine. 3. Mistake in the correct name, dosage, route, and timing of the medication. 4. Missed or interrupted medication. 5. Failure to observe Rights to Medication 6. Failure to maintain asepsis in medication administration. 7. Failure to validate doubts to medication. 8. Inappropriate nursing assessment of the client prior to medication administration. SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS Special instructions are instructions coming the principal care provider of the patient such his or her attending physician, specialist, consultant, or from a senior house officer (SNO) Table 3. Some Lists of Special Instructions 1. Complete bed rest without bathroom privileges (CBR w/o BP) 2. On NPO 3. On clear or liquid diet only 4. No dark colored diet5. Gluten free diet 6. Turn to side q certain hours 7. Instructions to known allergies of the patient such as aspirin or a kind of antibiotic 8. For breath retraining Note: the nurse should also exercise clinical judgment to implement independent nursing intervention without the instruction of professional advice. Table 4. Some List of Independent Nursing Interventions 1. Nursing assessment 2. Turning the patient 3. Deep breathing and coughing 4. Checking of gag or swallowing reflex 5. Vital signs as PRN or stat 6. Referral to head and physician 7. Infection control and safety 8. Splinting of abdominal surgery9. ROM exercise 10. Providing comfort and massage 11. TSB 12. Early safe ambulation 13. Oxygen therapy 14. Positioning of HOB or head of bed 15. Oral suctioning 16. Termination of infiltrated IV access ONGOING and TO BE- CARRIED-OUT INTERVENTION Ongoing intervention is a nursing implementation of an advice that is currently being administered and is attached to the patient when the nurse who initiated it is to leave from work or bound for home. The safety of the client is primary purpose of the importance of this endorsement; secondly to avoid miscommunication or confusion to the ingoing process on the patient; and finally to ensure continuity of care. It is best to include in this aspect of endorsement relevant data to obtain accurate fluid intake and output monitoring such as the present volume of current IV, all volumes of catheter bags, level of serous fluids in water seal bottles, level of fluids in drainage bag, syringe pump, and all other similar procedures. Ongoing lood transfusion endorsement shall include the number of bags required, the current number of bag, number of remaining bag, date and time started, blood and Rh type, Serial number, and date of expiration. It is important that pending or to be-carried- out advice such as diagnostics and laboratory studies and fluid therapy be included as well. Missing out the advice and costly redundancy will be avoided through this way. Important attention should be given to blood transfusion advice. To be carried-out blood transfusion or BT should have result of cross-matching before implementation. Blood and Rh type for the right patient should be checked three 3 times with the last time to be confirmed by another staff. Table below lists some common intervention that may be having medium or long term intervention. Table 5. Some Medium and Long-Term Interventions 1. IVF therapy 2. Blood transfusion 3. Bladder irrigation 4. CTT with water seal bottle 5. Machine Ventilator 6. Lavage 7. Central Venous catheter 8. Urinary catheterization9. Phototherapy 10. Wound drainage 11. Hemovac 12.

4. Recommended Organizational Policy Changes According to Comscore, Europe represents 32% of overall Internet searches with Google having 80% and Microsoft 2%. (Microsoft changes Bing s privacy policy, 2010). The biggest offenders for malware on the internet is image and video searches on the web. Sophos reports that 92% of search-driven malware attacks is obtained from Google and Bing image searches. (Pearce, 2012). In a world of personalized online services, establishing and maintaining user trust and responsible use of data is critical. Users expect appropriate and relevant content and advertising while also protecting their privacy when they use any search engine. As driven by consumer privacy concerns, the government has asked the online industry to examine data retention and protection policies. The Court of Justice for the European Union (CJEU) ordered that search engines are regulators of processing personal data under the European Union Data Protection Directive, passed in May 2014. (Abril Lipton, 2014). This order requires search engines to remove links from search results intrusive to individual’s privacy rights under this directive and is viewed as a component of the â€Å"Digital Right to be Forgotten Act.† The ruling raised debate among the industry as to whom will assume responsibility for online privacy assurance and protection.

Sample details Pages: 4 Words: 1195 Downloads: 4 Date added: 2019/05/20 Category Literature Essay Level High school Tags: Antigone Essay Did you like this example? Antigone Speech In Sophocles play, Antigone, tell us the fate of the main character by choosing what is morally right, or to follow the law of the state. In the play, Antigone brother, Polyneices dies in a war between him and his brother Eteocles. He was considered a traitor to the Theban people, and will not receive a proper burial ordered by the King, Kreon. Don’t waste time! Our writers will create an original "Antigone Speech" essay for you Create order Antigone believing that Kreon decree is unjust, took the matter into her own hands and buried her brother Polyneices. She is then taken to the king, defending her stance of burying her brother. She uses her speech in defense of her action. In her speech, she uses hints, expression, and peculiar sentence arrangement to make her argument more effective. In Antigone speech, she put into consideration to her audience to make it more powerful. One of these audiences is Kreon the current king of Thebes. He questions her defiance against the state law. In the text, Kreon states, And still your dared to violate the law? in which Antigone responds I deny that your edicts since you a mere man, imposed them (Antigone 718 Line 486 492). This shows that the argument is directed towards King Kreon. The other audience is the people of Thebes. In the play, the chorus is the representation of the citizen of Thebes. They are present when the Kreon is speaking, including the argument scene between him and Antigone. So, then Antigone form her argument to appeal the emotion and the mindset of the citizens. Antigoners has a main purpose during her speech which is focused on the two audiences, Kreon and the citizens of Thebes. In remarks to Kreon, Antigoners intention is to convey that even after being caught, she does not fear his power, and her soon to be punishment. Her motive was to show him the humanity in her action, and the transgression of her beliefs. To show this, she refers to her death as insignificant because it is a straightforward result to what she thinks is a humane action. In the text, she says, my own death isnt going to bother me, but I would be devastated to see my motherrs son die and rot unburied (Antigone 718 Line 503). In the second half of her statement, shows that her morality, not Kreon law, have control over her actions, emotion, and commitment to her faith. The other purpose is to gain sympathy from the citizen of Thebes. She wants the citizen to see who is really at fault here, not her but Kreon. She makes inferences to generally understand the idea, for example, the power of Gods over the power of man. This is to remind the people about their religious integrity when considering the current situation. In support of Antigone argument, she appeals to the morals and emotion of the audiences. She starts off her speech by defending her action with hints to God. Which she uses this to appeal the Thebans beliefs by saying that Kreon laws dont agree with the ideas expressed by the Gods, meaning she does not have to abide by that law. In the text, she says, I did it. It wasnt Zeus who issued me this order. And Justice who lived below was not involved. They never condone it! (Antigone 718 Line 486-490). Antigone wanted to show the people that the gods would have wanted her brother Polyneices soul to pass on to the afterlife, even with a traitorous status. She also says that the will of gods is to be complete forever, no matter what man run man rules Thebes. She says Their laws are not ephemeral, they werent made yesterday, and they will last forever (Antigone 718 Line 493-494). This statement is to remind the citizen that their morals are not indirect, as they are consistent. She uses this for Polyneicesrs right to burial in the eyes of the Gods. Antigone then uses emotion to gain sympathy from her audience. In order for her to do this, she mentions the unfortunate circumstances of her past. She tells the audiences of death that is around her whole life. Antigone gives refers to the murder of her father, her mother committing suicide, and now both brothers Polyneices and Eteocles who recently died in the war. She uses death as a plague upon her family and that her death is just another set for that plague. Toward Kreon this statement supports Antigone by showing she does not fear death, and to the audience, the statement is to gain pity and their sympathy. It is as if she is trying to convince them that she deserved to live since she accepts death. In Antigoners point of view of the whole situation is important to know considering the strength of argument. She stands by on her belief and defends her decision on burying her brother as the right choice. Her morals and past experienced help shape this view. She has a strong mindset of family loyalty as play the goes on. This shows through all of her actions, by illegally burying her brother. She also has a constant displeasure towards Kreon, mainly because he assumed the throne after her father died. These experiences may have helped shaped her attitude towards Kreon apart from her discontent with the law. Antigone uses devices such as indirect references and reiteration of words, to help increase the strengthen her argument. The most common indirect references are her to speak to their Gods. She refers to the gods to having the ultimate power of any human being even kings. This is one the effective device to use because of the religious belief of the Theban. This will make her audience consider boundaries between the laws of man and the law of Gods. Knowing that the Theban has a strong religious background, to help her ensure that her speech reaches into their belief to make them think. Hinting at their religion help strengthen her argument to be more persuasive. Antigone also reiterates some words and ideas to help support her argument. The most repeated idea in the play is death. She implemented the idea of death that is around her life, telling them that her death is not important in the current situation. This idea is used to gain sympathy from the people of Thebes. It is also used against Kreon to show that his law, and not Antigone is the one at fault in the current situation. The devices she uses in her general argument help make it more persuasive. In conclusion, Antigone used her persuasiveness to support her argument when defending her action against Kreon. She uses her morals, belief, and her past life to create a strong argument for the burial of her brother. Though, she was unable to convince Kreon to stop her punishment. She managed to get the citizen on her side that she was right in her actions. She ended up hanging herself in a cave, and after many, more people have died such as Kreon son and wife. Kreon then reflected towards the end of the play and finally realizes Antigone action and words though it is too late for him to repent.
