However, community nursing provides an advantage to the health worker who faces those diverse challenges. The family in question was a single parent family. The family only ...

Elves are mythical creatures that belong to the supernatural world.

The healthcare provider’s definition of family and family roles influences pediatric assessment as well as the subsequent family (Potter et al., 2013). The term family and family roles alike have diverse meanings when it comes to different cultural contexts and may vary from the ideal family definition or description. For instance, if a healthcare provider has a static or rigid definition of family and subsequently family roles, it becomes pretty hard to switch from one family circumstances to the other when conducting pediatric and family assessment (DeLaune & Ladner, 2010).

Riley and Young were both interested in classical music and drew inspiration from John Cage, a renowned composer and performer based in Germany (Potter, 12).

The American Psychological Association (n.d) noted that an individual’s social and economic status affects physical and mental health, daily activities, and living areas. Besides, one’s financial abilities would influence levels of education and poverty and may predispose one to criminal behavior. At the same time, since poverty may have significant adverse effects on the mental health of the people, it follows that the individual may be susceptible to criminal ...

According to Brown, institutional racism is common in the societies we live in today, and sadly the situation my not change soon because the practice is perpetuated by the state and its institutions (2009).

Interventions and Outcomes Measurement for the Elderly with Diabetes

In my practice as an advanced practice nurse, the elderly populations who in addition to their advanced age have diabetes as a chronic condition were determined to be a high-risk population. The determination of this status was on the basis of several attributes, one of them being the competing needs. The fact that some of the members of this population are economically dependent on their family members requires them to prioritize their needs. The presence of the chronic disease condition also classifies them as a high-risk population. In addition to this, other factors such as poor health seeking behaviors, ...
