Home Care verses Hospital Care Nursing

Health care services, irrespective of being in the hospital or at home, nursing ethics and legal principles are supposed to be achieved.

Extensive health care by highly skilled physicians would be offered in the hospital compared while the patient is at home (Zhang, Michael, & Harish, 2015). While at the hospital, a regular check-up by a specialist would ensure gradual health improvement. This would be achieved through getting high-quality ...

This however, raises questions about the nurses’ attitudes and opinions towards practicing euthanasia. There is a need to question their opinions and beliefs regarding euthanasia and their role in the administering of lethal drugs. If they are not confident with what they do, they may experience fear, which may ...

In the year 2015, Wang, Doleschel, Wunderlich, and Heinen published a paper in the Journal of Medical Systems [1]. The paper was on a wearable wireless ECG system that was based on the novel 3-Lead electrode placements. After carrying out an experiment for the 3-Lead electrode placements, it was discovered that the distance between the electrodes could further be reduced for efficiency. A smaller sized sensor node being powered by a rechargeable battery would then be developed based on the newly identified electrode positions. A dynamic method of controlling power is also automatically installed in the sensor node for ...

Problem Description

The case at hand points out that the risk for readmission and occurrence of preventable complications as high in the home care settings upon discharge from ambulatory surgery centers. This problem implies that upon discharge, the patient’s risk of complication was much higher than their counterparts in full-time clinical settings. In a bid to address this problem, it is vital to organize an effort to reduce chances of complication and readmission rates due to lack of poor service delivery in homecare settings. The ambulatory surgery settings, otherwise named ambulatory surgery centers (ASCs), represent a type of facilities that ...

1. Problem Identification Merely documenting the scope of work that an employee is supposed to undertake does not mean that the employee will remain in the job to carry out their duties. For example, just by delegating duties to nurses in homecare such that some handle admission of clients (start of homecare), re-admission (continuation of or resuming home care) and discharge (Tourangeau et al. 2014). Although this will free other regular visiting nurses hence allowing them to concentrate on the visits themselves, retaining the nurses on the job calls for more hence an improvement of the nurses ITR. Though ...

However, it is possible that hypertension is an incorrect diagnosis. Normal blood pressure should be bellow 120/80, but it is also considered that the blood pressure can deviate up to 140 mmHg systolic pressure and 90 mmHg diastolic reading. Because Mrs. Chang’s blood pressure reading is lower than 140/90, her case can be considered pre-hypertension at most (Cunha, 2010). Another possibility is that Mrs. Chang’s condition has changed since her last examination, but she could not have known that because she cannot remember her last examination. She currently appears to suffer from orthostatic hypotension rather than hypertension. ...

Nursing research falls under two comprehensive worldviews. These are naturalistic paradigm and positivist paradigm, which have reality assumptions and world views that oppose each other.

According to the Institute of Medicine of National Academy of Sciences, the United States of America is a single developed industrial country that does not have universal health care.

Unlike the U.S., Russian Federation has free universal medicine, and state constitution guarantees each citizen free health care services. Numerous debates rise regarding both American and Russian health care systems, their availability, effectiveness and expenditures. Each of the systems has ...

Law

Introduction Criticism of present-day medical ethics is seen as fallout of the relationship between stakeholders in theory and practice. While efforts continue to re-establish the relationship, the conflicting interest of the two stakeholders continues to create a perception of increased risk of bias or poor judgment.

It is such a case that PharmaCARE has been guilty of. The aim of the law and the common good ...
