- The Need for Interdisciplinary Teams

Interdisciplinary teams are important in nursing as they improve the quality and safety of care offered to patients. Interdisciplinary teams consist of professionals from different disciplines who work together and share expertise, skills and knowledge (Gardner, 2005). Collaboration and teamwork are imperative in healthcare which requires professionals with varied expertise. Poor collaboration between health professionals and lack of teamwork influences quality and safety of care (Gardner, 2005). Research linked poor collaboration with poor patient outcome and increase in medical errors. This is because patients do not get appropriate and timely care. Poor communication ...

Carl Gustav Jung's psychotherapeutic concept is closely related in its basis with the concept of Sigmund Freud, and at the same time very different from the latter. This can be explained by the personal peculiarities of Jung, the creator of analytic psychology. Being not only a psychiatrist and psychoanalytic but also a philosopher, Jung has left a lot of unique and practically applicable legacy whose importance is being constantly rediscovered in many of the spheres of human thinking - psychology, literature, education, culture, philosophy, sociology and many others.

This research paper will provide a brief overview of the peculiarities of Carl Gustav Jung's ...

Unethical Practices

The Hippocratic oath is the cornerstone of the medical profession. Once a physician takes the hallowed oath and joins the ranks of healers, he is supposed to place the interests of patients above all considerations. However, there have been various instances where physicians have followed unethical practices, not living up to the promises they made when they joined the medical profession. Currently, fears abound amidst recurrent debates surrounding the ‘right to die with dignity’. The state of Oregon has legalized euthanasia. As a result, there has been a marked increase in the number of people obtaining prescriptions to end their lives. ...

Also, it explains my – like some people call it – weird behaviors. Since, I don’t usually socialize, I’m just here ...

It is my position that crime is largely a consequence of nurture. The case of Kuklinski can be used illustratively. Social upbringing has a large bearing on the decision. Kuklinski, for instance, is a product of brutal parenthood from his father. He equally admits that he hated his mother who would punish him by the cane (used broom to punish him). He (Kuklinski) confirms that he derives no pleasure from killing. In fact, he limits his pleasure feeling to sexual intercourse. However, it is not always the case that everyone who is neglected and abused would turn violent. Determining the course one ...

Ray Bradbury’s science fiction is much different than that of many of the other practitioners of the craft. While many science fiction writers focus on adult adventures throughout the galaxies and the dystopian future that awaits all of humanity, Bradbury spends a great deal of time looking at the interactions of children with each other and with their family members. A great deal of the drama in Fahrenheit 451 turns on Guy Montag’s relationship with the young Clarisse; the summer joys of Douglas Spaulding, who is just old enough to realize that moments of happiness are as fleeting ...

Personality Disorders are a type of mental illness that includes a wide range of problems dealing with the world at large, and a number of perception problems that make living an ordinary modern life very difficult for the sufferers.

The name applied to this group of disorders is misleading, since "personality," in common usage, tends to connote some kind of control or willfulness on the part of the sufferer – this leads many people to think that the sufferer is somehow at fault for the illness. ...
