Public image of nurses: past, present, and future

Introduction Undoubtedly, the nursing profession has vital ingredients of accountability and autonomy. Also, it is true to assert that nursing profession demands more responsibilities than before when the main role of a nurse was just to provide comfort and care. In the modern world, a nurse is expected to be an advocate for clients, a manager, and an educator (Drayton & Weston, 2015). However, little attention is drawn towards the assessment of the actual public image and perception of nurses. Nurses seem to dwell in a dual structure of nursing and social worlds. The two worlds tend to influence and ...

There are times when a nursing problem arises as a result of a number of findings, and these findings are pulled together into a summary in order to see the big picture created out of these findings. This act of pulling together is what Brown & Ochs (2018) calls a systematic research review (SRR) or systematic review, which helps researchers identify “what is known with certainty, what is tentatively known, and what the gaps in knowledge are regarding an issue” (p.175). It serves as a link between the individual studies performed and the decision making done in order to create ...

Interestingly tough employers are looking for qualified workers even during the hard times according to the government's standard employment data. These jobs take years of experience to attain the required skills. For instance, it is tough to find an experienced person in welding. It takes a minimum of ten years to produce a ...

With the use of telemedicine, the patients and the health care providers can see each other through a confined space and there is ...

Healthcare organizations face a big problem now when it comes to nurse staffing and scheduling. There appears a big scarcity problem in the number of nurses when assigned per patient. Researches done during the past decades have established the importance of having enough nursing staff or registered nurse staffing as they play a huge role in achieving positive patient outcomes, safety, and satisfaction. This means an adequate nurse to patient ratio promotes reduction in patient mortality, enhances outcomes, and improves nurse satisfaction when it comes to their work. For instance, one study pointed out that for every patient assigned ...

The bullwhip effect can be detrimental to the efficiency of a supply chain. Demand of a product may only slightly shift, but it can lead to a much greater shift in manufacturing a product. This is when the “variability in demand is magnified as we move from the customer to the producer in the supply chain” (Robert & Chase). It specifically relates to a lack of coordination in a supply chain as a company makes purchases from its suppliers more unpredictably than it sells to its customer (Mendelson & Bray, 2016). It also relates to a lack of coordination in the ...

Human Dignity and the Organ Trade

Organ donation is a gracious act that adds more years to a sick individual’s life as it allows them to live a longer and healthier life.

The problem is that there is a shortage of organs for transplantation all over the world. The list of patients waiting for donors run in the hundreds of thousands, with about 100,000 of them waiting for kidney donors alone. This has led to questions about the possibility of ...

Organ donation is a gracious act that adds more years to a sick individual’s life. It allows them to live a longer and healthier life than what they have had before. Those with end-stage heart, eye, or kidney diseases live longer than those who receive other treatment methods such as dialysis or oral medications. Those who receive organs from a living donor are said to live 12 to 20 more years as compared with those who receive organ donation from a deceased donor.
