After hearing such negative sexist talk directed towards a colleague, I would take several measures aimed at ensuring that the perpetrators of the act know that their actions are wrong and should not be repeated. I would also put effort in supporting Jim, who in this case is the victim, encouraging him and urging him to stay strong in a bid to make sure that he comes out a much stronger individual. The best means of communicating would be face-to-face communication as it is a rich channel that enables instant feedback and suitable for personal conversations (Cameron, p.68).

The workplace is comprised of individuals with different types and personalities. As a result, conflict is bound to be experienced at one time or another.

Hayes et al. (2015) estimated that nurses spend between 16% and 40% of their time in medication administration, a process that entails reviewing the medication administration record; retrieving, preparing, and administering the medication; monitoring the outcomes; and documenting the intervention (Rodriguez-Gonzalez, 2014). However, errors occur in around 20% of all instances of medication administration leading to patient harm and increased costs of care (Hayes, 2015). Nurses need to be aware of their responsibilities in medication administration, developmental factors that increase the risk of harm, and best practices to prevent medication errors and adverse events.

Dealing with annoying co-workers

There is nothing worse than dealing with annoying workers in the workplace. There are six types of annoying co-workers according to Alison Green (Green, 2011). There are those that interrupt you when you are talking to others, those that seem to know it all, the slackers, the grump, the speakerphone lovers and the bubble mouths. I believe that in as much as communication is extremely valuable for an organization to function successfully, if its done professionally. Sharing ideas and interacting with fellow co-workers is advantageous because it helps with teamwork and improves interpersonal skills (Green, 2011). Everything must be ...

Grief is a common part of everyone’s life. Everyone at some point in his or her life will deal with something like the death of a loved one. Many will be spared this early on in life, but some will experience this as young children. What was surprising to me about the readings was the realization that the outcome of the grief of loss changes with age. I always considered grief just an emotion and not something that is responded to differently with age. What was most surprising about grief in young children is what occurs between the ages ...

Scenario 1: Teaching a newly diagnosed type II diabetic patient the importance of monitoring his/her blood glucose level.

This scenario will require applying connectivism theory of learning to help the patient effectively comprehend the importance of monitoring blood glucose level in the body. Connectivism theory is relevant in this scenario since it requires that the patient needs knowledge to assimilate the importance of monitoring his or her blood glucose level. The patient has to be active and learn as the process of learning is carried on. James states that, “Nurturing and maintaining connections is needed to facilitate continual learning” (2013). The theory makes learning contextual as the patient has to connect the information he has concerning ...

In a co-teaching classroom environment, it is normal to expect that a teaching colleague would possess characters, traits, beliefs, values, and teaching style that is antithetical from one’s personal and professional perspectives.

Fall prevention is important in both hospital settings and at home because they can result in fractures, head trauma, soft tissue trauma, prolonged rehabilitation, emotional trauma, loss of confidence, and high patient readmission rates (Oliver, Daly, Martin, & McMurdo, 2004).

The elderly population is at a significant risk for adverse events when they fall in contrast to other age groups. According ...

It was in a nice afternoon that I had sat in a restaurant with a colleague after work. He is a man who is usually conservative and I could not predict what was up for discussion. However, being the two of us in a shade, I believed this day we would share a lot with the man.

Following the conservative nature of the friend, I was mindful of what he was about to share with me. It was not a guarantee that he had something in particular that he wanted us to share since I still doubted how he could open up to me. At several ...

More often than not, we are faced by issues which call for ethical decision making.

Ethical considerations hold the key to effective and meaningful recovery of a patient from all his/her illness with dignity. Failure to adhere to these ethical practices by the medical practitioners and therapists will not only throw away peoples trust on them, but also create a legal tussle between the two groups, further worsening the situation. In light of the two professional settings (Psychiatric Hospital and Children Psychotherapy), ethical boundary considerations resonates around two crucial parameters; informed consent and Confidentiality (Pope, & Vasquez, 2011). In deed, these are the key to mutual respect and understanding between the doctor and the patient.

The day we were introduced to our new team member, I noticed him looking apparently disinterested in initiating conversation. His conversation with us was limited ...

As a parent with kids at this particular age, I fill as though the first priority for a parent would be to his kids and not his job or school. Consequently, I am not refuting the fact that Liz needs to study in order to earn an up ...

Pay and Incentives are part of a reward system formulated by HR in consent with their management. These motivational instruments are offered to employees or groups not for their merit, but for their performance. Ed Lawler (1994) was among the first to champion the concept of reward for performance, integrating company strategy, pay systems and employee behaviours for higher productivity. Therefore, I beg to differ with my colleague on his point. Also, I don’t think “any given contribution to workplace performance” should merit the organization to increase pay or offer incentives to employees. Like I said earlier, pay and ...
