The purpose of the SPICES assessment tool is to identify possible sleeping patterns, problems with feeding/eating, incontinence, confusion, evidence of falls, and skin breakdown. The focus of this tool is to promote healing, recovery, and shorten the duration of the patient’s healthcare stay. Personally, I did not realize how common it is for the older adult to suffer from incontinence. For example, when the patient stated she wore absorbent underwear to prevent her from frequent accidents I was in shock, simply because she could not make it to the restroom in time. Moreover, it never crossed my mind that incontinence could be related to time or slower body mechanics. Additionally, this specific moment in the film stood out to me personally…
The three different approaches to diversity training programs that I selected can be found in Noe, Hollenbeck, Gerhart, & Wright, (2011). They are attitudes programs, behavioral programs, and finally cultural immersion.…

Since the beginning of time, man has always been a control freak. He has created and destroyed nations, people and the Earth—truly demonstrating the sheer potential of the human race. It is his nature, however, to be controlling and manipulative. This human predisposition is prominent in George Orwell’s 1984 and the 2011 Arab Spring Revolutions, where authoritarian power is taken to an extreme. In both instances, the people of Oceania and the Middle East are forced upon unfair and dangerous living conditions—in which they are manipulated of their human nature through their freedom and knowledge.…
Diversity training is very important in today’s workplace. According to ehow.com diversity training provides participants with awareness, knowledge, and skill to manage differences between people that exist in the workplace. Diversity includes differences in culture, ethnicity, sexual preference and religion. Diversity training demonstrates to employees that the company takes cultural sensitivity very seriously and is striving for equal treatment. There are several ways in which diversity training would benefit a company and ways that diversity can be encouraged at the workplace.…
* Diversity training workshops last about two to three hours, and courses last a minimum of four days. Workshops and courses teach conflict resolution skills, preparation for increases in racial and gender diversity, international work and safeguarding against harassment. Unfortunately, diversity training through workshops or courses produces only short-term positive effects. It seems that the "afterglow" of this type of training fades fast.…

In this task I will be reflecting upon an incident undertaken on area of my work. The model of reflection I’ve chosen is Gibbs (1988), which involves reflection on the description, feelings, evaluation, conclusion and action plan (Gibbs 1988). The Gibbs (1988) reflective cycle is fairly straightforward and encourages a clear description of the situation, analysis of feelings, evaluation of the experience, analysis to make sense of the experience, conclusion where other options are considered and reflection upon experience to examine what you would do if the situation arose again. The procedure in which I will be reflecting upon is Last offices; I chose this due to how constructive and valuable it was in my personal and professional development as a student practitioner nurse.…
As nervous as I was when I walked into Saint Joseph Catholic School (K-8) for my first day of kindergarten, I never thought I would be able to leave after 6th grade and enter the world of middle school. In a small school of about 400 kids, I was familiar with every face that passed by me in the hallway. I got to know the kids in my grade so well and we all knew each other’s life stories. By the time I was in 6th grade at Saint Joseph, some of my friends were planning on going to Kinard middle school in 7th grade. At this point in my life, I was not completely content with where I was going to school. The realization came to me that it was time to move on. It was time for me to try something new.…
“Diversity training has the potential to build bridges (Henslin, 2013).” The function behind offering diversity training is to help foster community. A healthy well managed work environment that will foster and increase the work output. It’s to help educate the employees on how to develop connections to people of various ages and backgrounds. Another key function is how to draw upon your co-workers aspect and work ethics to smooth out business production through shared unity.…

Today’s society has laws and regulations in place, including Equal Employment Opportunity Legislation (Harvey, C.P. & Allard, M.J., University of Phoenix, 2009) to promote a diverse work environment. The laws and regulations make it so people are hired based on their qualifications and not their race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy), national origin, disability, or genetic information (“U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission”, n.d.). While these laws and regulations are in effect, there are some people who may not have had any interaction with diversity and do not know how to act or what to or not to say. Diversity training would provide all employees the opportunity to ask questions and have a general understanding of the interactions they will be faced with. Diversity training may also discuss prejudice, stereotypes, discrimination, and privileges and what will not be…
Diversity training is a vital tool in any organization. In the society we live in today we live amongst a plethora of cultures.

Diversity training represents the opportunity for employers to educate employees about diversity. Furthermore, it is an opportunity to break down the barriers that separate different types of employees, such as ethnic, social, and political barriers, so they can work together and be productive as a team. However, for diversity training to be effective, an organization should ensure their training program is an ongoing effort supported by top management. Creating a diversity training program for an organization usually involves evaluating the team’s needs, designing materials that reflect the training requirements, holding the training and then following up on the efforts.…
