The results of the questionnaire showed a wide variation, and in some cases a lack of definition of scope of practice and job descriptions for reporting radiographers (Tables 1-5). Which was in contrast to current professional body requirements which require a clearly defined and sepcific role with routinely scheduled sessions under the Agenda for Change and Knowledge and Skills Frameworks8 , the Service of Diagnosis of Illness provided to the employing NHS Trust under Section 3(1) and Section 5(1)(b) of the NHS Act 197728. Furthermore the RCR29 stipulate that any reporting practice involves direct clinical care and should be allocated appropriately defined and scheduled reporting sessions to adequately support service provision.…

I am interested in running for the position of Secretary of the National Honor Society so that I can assist the President and Vice President in making our school a better place. We, as members of this prestigious group, have the duty to involve Saucon Valley as a whole in order to do community service for the benefit of all. As Secretary, I plan to amp up the school spirit here at Saucon so that every individual student feels included and motivated to better our school and our community. For example, the blood drive that NHS hosts every year can become a schoolwide effort with a little more enthusiasm. In previous years, many underclassmen ignore the blood drive completely because of their age and thus, their inability to donate blood. But if we were to make the event more “fun” as a whole, we could encourage students to get the word out to their parents, neighbors, or friends to get involved and donate their blood to those who need it. And by “fun”, I imply decorations throughout the school, exaggerated morning announcements, offers of food, anything that will get the student body excited to share their blood!…

Women are more likely to become ill than men for many reasons. Men are likely to have strong immune systems than women as they tend to put themselves first, whereas a woman has different priorities. Another reason why women may become ill opposed to men is the fact that a lot more women have to work the double day than men. The double day consist of the individual going out to work on a day to day basis and then returning home to start chores. These chores can be anything from looking after the children to cleaning the house. A person who works the double day are more likely to become ill as they are more likely to become stressed or exhausted, both of which can lead to the individual becoming ill at a later stage. Men are seen to have more physical or dangerous jobs than women, which should mean they become ill on a more regular basis. However this is not the case because a lot of men return home from work and then relax, whereas the women go to work and then come home to situations such as sorting the children making sure all the washing and things are complete. This is…
CQC report (2012) outlined that in order to safeguard the health, safety and welfare of service users, there must at all times be sufficient staff levels for the purposes of carrying out regulated activities. Backing this up is research findings from Royal College of Nursing (2012) which summarized that staffing levels impact patient’s outcomes and experiences. Regulation 20 (1) (a) of The Residential Care Homes Regulations (2005) explains the registered person shall ensure that at all times suitably qualified, competent and experienced staff are working in appropriate numbers for the health and welfare of the residents.…
While researching texts written and published about Nurse Practitioners, I have found that Nurse Practitioners are rapidly becoming the top health partner choice for many Americans. Nurse Practitioners have been servicing patients for over forty years. The NP role had its initiation in the mid-sixties in response to a lack of physicians in the United States.They can perform very extensive and concentrated examinations; distinguish and treat common keen illnesses, as well as laboratory tests; and educate and instruct patients and their loved ones about maintaining a healthy lifestyle and possible health care options. In all fifty states Nurse Practitioners are allowed to prescribe medications to patients, including controlled substances. Only twenty-six states allow Nurse…
Cases of teenage pregnancy continue to rise rather fast. Unfortunately, most health facilities such as trusts do not offer the requisite antenatal care to expectant teenagers. Lack of or the existence of poorly managed antenatal classes for teenagers is major challenge in ensuring expectant teenagers have comfortable pregnancies. Change and innovation are the right approaches by which antenatal classes for expectant teenagers can be realised. Several models of change are available for use in ensuring change in the formation and implementation of antenatal classes for teenagers. This innovation plan for enhanced quality care in antenatal classes for teenagers is based on the NHS change model. The eight core principles of the NHS Change Model form the framework for the innovation plan.…
A student who serves not only serves their community, but their school, and fellow classmates as well in multiple ways. They must be willing to give up their personal time to help those in need. The student must be able to take on difficult tasks without it being an issue for the person providing them with the task. They must help their fellow classmates in any way necessary. I believe I have shown all of these characteristics during my time here at Bath High School.…

This goes to show how vital their services are in the NHS.…
The English Patient is a novel written in 1992 by Sri Lankan-Canadian Michael Ondaatje, whose novel won the Booker Prize for best novel of 1992 and was adapted into an award-winning film in 1996. This book was written in a non-linear narrative, so that it provides the reader a different way to go through the reading of a novel, and which sometimes creates dynamism in the novel narrative, but also it could create confusion in the reader. «The story tells about nationhood, identity, and displacement» (Gale, 2006), but also explores loneliness, and life and death; these are linked themes in the novel, and also are the points to be analyzed in the following essay.…
