Impact of Unemployment on the Long Term

The unemployment is defined as the state of looking for a job and not being able to get a job. The unemployed people are willing to be in the labor market; however, the economies cannot produce enough jobs for all the workers.

The ability to create new jobs is very essential for the national economies. The recession times in the world cause an increase in the unemployment rate, and some of the unemployments are long-term unemployments. The most ...

Introduction

As myriad of changes continue being experienced in the health sector, several challenges prevent effective implementation of healthcare services. These challenges include limitation in healthcare services, inefficient skills, unskilled personnel, poverty and huge gap between the number of skilled healthcare providers and number of patients seeking services. These problems further intensify in rural areas whereby the distance between patients and healthcare facilities prevent timely access to healthcare. This explains why several federal policies target problems facing the rural poor. Studies further show that more than 15 percent of healthcare beneficiaries reside in rural areas (Thrall, 2012). These patients depend ...

Abstract

This research proposal explores shortage of nurses in United States of America. After a concise literature review, a methodology will be explained. This embodies a descriptive quantitative research design. The instrument used for data collection would be a questionnaire designed and accessed through survey monkey. Responses will be gathered from a population of serving nurses and those who have left routine bedside nursing practice now functioning in other higher adjacent capacities such as advanced nurse practitioners. Representative samples of the population will be drawn using simple random techniques. A comprehensive plan of this research is outlined in the following document and a system of how ...

In the aftermath of the spill, investigations were conducted into the incident to identify the causes that led to the spill, the reasons behind the poor response to the disaster, as well as to formulate ways in which safety standards could be improved so as to prevent similar disasters from taking place in the future. This study reviewed extensive literature pertaining to the prevalent Health, Safety ...

Emergencies often require the input of fast and effective services so as to contain the situation. In many cases, either property and or life are often at risk and the necessity often is to salvage the situation.

Although the theories approach emergencies in different perspectives, an application of the same enables the ultimate solution of emergency cases. This paper shall focus on two main emergency theories. These are the Chaos Theory as advanced by Klaus Mainzer and the Disaster Theory as advanced by Thomas Drabek. The ...

Chapter 3: Methodology

3.1 Research Design
“A research design is a framework or blueprint for conducting the business research project. It details the procedures necessary for obtaining the information needed to structure or solve business research problems.” (Green Field Online Research Center, 2009). Choosing the right research design depends on the topic at hand, and whether a hypothesis is available, initially or is to be deduced from the literature review and primary research itself. This research design approach has been carefully selected, in order to match the topic. Three in depth interviews have been conducted with experts on the topic, their expert opinions ...

Abstract

Background: Gluteal muscle contracture (GMC) is a clinical syndrome characterized by limited hip movements.

Methods: In this prospective study, 23 patients received traditional incision surgery and 22 patients received small incision surgery for the treatment of GMC. The two groups were compared for duration of surgery, length of incisions, requirement of postsurgical analgesia, postsurgical complications, off-bed activity times, duration of hospitalisation, clinical outcomes and one year recurrence rates. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS software; enumeration data were analysed by χ2 tests; and measurement data were analysed by t tests.
Results: The small incision surgery group was significantly superior ...
