During the activity of kicking a football a person will use most of the muscles and joints in their body to perform the movement. Many of these muscles and joints may only play a small role in the movement but will affect the overall quality of the kick. Because of the amount of muscles and joints used in the kick I have chosen to only discuss the most important to the skill of each to discus. The three main joints used to perform a kick in football are the hip joint, the knee joint and the elbow joint.…
Direct Support Professionals provide support for people with a disability and “should be aware of the content of the Australasian Code of Ethics for Direct Support Professionals, as it provides “a common framework to assist with both the education and day-to-day work of direct support professionals.” (McVilly & Newell, 2007, p. 4). McVilly & Newell (2007) also state that as Direct Support Professionals, they have to adhere to the highest professional standards when working with clients. One of the ethics that should to be adhered to is relationships, which is very important between a Direct Support Professional and person with a disability as boundaries need to set “in relationships between professionals and their clients and to provide a mechanism for monitoring ethical professional behaviours,” (Lord Nelson, Summers, & Turnbull, 2004, p. 153). Direct Support Professionals value and respect their relationships with clients in order to work in a professional way and to build a core of trust between the two parties.…

In a work environment or even in our personal life’s we need to understand other people’s views and take them into account. We have to be sensitive and diplomatic when dealing with other people.

It is written on the premise that when you are stuck in any situation, whether it be at home with a spouse or child or work with other members of leadership or supervisees that there is a crucial conversation keeping you from accomplishing the desired results. The book encourages you to speak up in these crucial moments effectively so that in return you can accomplish the results you are after. The book begins by defining a crucial conversation and continues in depth to exactly how we handle crucial conversations; We can avoid them, We can face them and handle them poorly and We can face them and handle them well. Throughout this summary, I will discuss the specifics of Chapter 7 (p.131), which I found to be the most applicable and meaningful currently. Chapter 7 titled, State my Path; How to Speak Persuasively, Not Abrasively highlights five skills that can help us advocate for our opinions and beliefs while making others feel safe, valued, and respected.…
Being able to function well with others within the space of healthcare providing collaborative, patient-centred care is regarded to be vastly essential. Whilst competencies can be unpacked as many things, communication, being one of those things, is stressed to be the one that is required in order for the healthcare environment to operate effectively. But, according to The Combined Universities Interprofessional Learning Unit (CUILU), they have identified capabilities to be a better way in reflecting the need to respond and adapt to the changing healthcare environment. These capabilities include but not restricted to some of the following; ethical practice and Interprofessional…
The code of ethics which reverberated within my mind was the American Counseling Association’s Code of Ethics. ACA goes into more depth about principles that new up and coming counselors and professional should focus on. ACA emphasizes on the cultural context of making ethical decisions. It is important that counselors increase conscious ways to apply ethical standards from a perspective that recognizes and respects diversity, because we work in a pluralistic world (ACA, 2006).…
I began my career in social work, a profession built almost entirely on one’s ability to listen and empathize with those who need help. As a leader, I practice the strategies of empathic listening, working diligently to understand what others are saying. I realize that most of what my followers say comes from their non verbals and their tone, rather than their actual words. Before offering a solution or opinion, I ensure that I understand what they are really saying and try to see the issue from their point of view.…
The definition of ethics is the moral principles that govern a person or group’s behavior. My own personal ethics are shaped around the way I was raised. My faith and religion have helped to influence my personal ethics as well. My mother and father are both catholic and so I was taught this religion from as young as I can remember.…

Professional conduct refers to the manner in which a person behaves while acting in a professional capacity. It is generally accepted that when performing their duties and conducting their affairs professionals will uphold exemplary standards of conduct, commonly taken to mean standards not generally expected of lay people or the ‘ordinary person in the street’.1 The Code of Professional Conduct for Nurses in Australia is supported by the Code of Ethics for Nurses in Australia. This Code of Professional Conduct for Nurses sets the minimum standards for practice a professional person is expected to uphold both within and outside of professional domains in order to ensure the ‘good standing’ of the nursing profession. These two companion Codes, together with other published practice standards (eg competency standards, decision-making frameworks, guidelines and position statements), provide a framework for legally and professionally accountable and responsible nursing practice in all clinical, management, education and research domains.2 The support and assistance of Royal College of Nursing, Australia and the Australian Nursing Federation in developing this edition of the Code of Professional Conduct for Nurses in Australia is acknowledged. In considering this Code and the Code of Ethics for Nurses in Australia, it should be borne in mind that they are designed for multiple audiences: nurses; nursing students; people requiring or receiving nursing care; other health workers; the community generally; employers of nurses; nursing regulatory authorities; and consumer protection agencies.…

This document is imperative to our profession because it encourages pharmacist to work with all providers to improve the well-being of patients in the long run. Because each provider specializes in different areas, they can come together to fully assess the patient, and make plans to improve his or her health. I believe teamwork is very important in an individual’s health treatment and improvement. In addition, teamwork will bring all providers together so the patient sees them as one instead of separate. I sometimes hear people say that they only listen or trust to their doctors or pharmacists, and that may cause some conflict. In my opinion, this document may decrease such division because of communication. When both providers and pharmacists…
