Essays on Guidance

Introduction

Walshe and Rundall (2001) define evidence-based practice as the provision of medical services based on empirical evidence retrieved from thorough scientific research and the relevant characteristics of the patient. The aim of using such methods when making critical decisions about a patient is to eliminate risk and promote quality treatment (Murray & Lopez, 1996). This paper provides survey questions relating to the utilization of evidence-based health care methods in medical facilities. It also includes a cover letter that can be used to invite respondents to take part in the survey.

A clear lack of resolve and courage precipitates to the denial of personal freedom, but an affliction on others for sole guidance. Principally, Kant’s assertion about enlightenment is entrenched on having the courage to use personal understanding and courage to dispense ...

As a coherent system of notions that flow from an objective, which in turn serve to identify the purpose of financial reporting, a conceptual framework also provides guidance on the identification of the boundaries of financial reporting. Its concepts further provide guidance on the selection of transactions, related events, and circumstances to be presented, and how such elements should be summarized and ultimately reported (Financial Accounting Standards Board [FASB], 2008).

Abstract

STPA (System-Theoretic Process Analysis), is a new hazard analysis technique designed to “eliminate or control scenarios” before they result in losses (Leveson 2011). STPA is based upon an analysis of loss of functional control of a process rather than on an analysis of failure of individual components. Therefore, the model that is used in STPA is a functional control diagram rather than a physical component diagram (Leveson 2011). STPA provides guidance to the users, as opposed to other hazard analyses. In addition, STPA can be used before a system ...
