    The use of technology in healthcare and the delivery of this technology to healthcare present many challenges, technology contributes to improving the quality of healthcare but it does impact healthcare cost, however there are some trade-offs. “The term “medical technology” refers to procedures, equipment, and processes by which medical care is delivered.” (Goyen, Mathias. 2009) Some of the current challenges in healthcare are patient privacy and protection when using wireless technology, tracking patients and staff while in the healthcare environment, and transitioning medical records to electronic medical records to help reduce mistakes and improve patient safety. Technology does contribute to improving the quality of healthcare but it does impact healthcare cost, which has been one of the reasons why insurance premiums have been high.

    Martin Luther King V. Malcolm X

    Martin Luther King has been known for using peace to help him get equality among all people but especially African-Americans. He was not the type of leader that resorted to violence in order to get the equality that he fought for. King has been known for moving people by the use of his speeches like King’s I Have a Dream and I’ve Been to the Mountaintop speeches. King shows through these speeches that even though he was determined to get equal rights for every African-American, he was only going to stick to subtle, nonviolent ways like court cases, protest, and boycotts. This philosophy is the exact opposite to Malcolm X, another Civil Rights Leader, who thought that African American should not waste their time on protest and boycotts (Document 7). Malcolm, like King, was not in favor of violence but believe that African Americans should by all means use violence to protect themselves when they “attacked by racists” (Document 9). But, Martin Luther King’s philosophy was more beneficial for the African-American community then Malcolm X’s because the effort that he put into his nonviolent philosophy made gaining rights more successful and more meaningful.…
