    Fetal Heartbeat Case Study

    II. Fetal Heartbeat Standard One of the major changes the ACA attempts to make is the establishment of a new fetal heartbeat standard. Applying this standard would significantly reduce the amount of time needed in a pregnancy for the government to consider the fetus a compelling state interest. The plaintiff, Planned Parenthood of Texarkana, will immediately refer to the precedent set by Roe v. Wade as their strongest argument. In Roe, the Court deemed abortion a constitutional right implied in the Due Process Clause of the 14th Amendment.…

    Mmm Case Study Nursing

    Before a nurse practitioner assesses a client’s mental status from the client’s family’s concerns of possible mental decline, the practitioner should assess the patient’s hearing status. According to Jorgensen, Palmer, Pratt, Erickson, and Moncrieff (2016), “Confusion-life behaviors often concern family members and other caregivers; they may presume that the person has dementia and bias the diagnostic process toward dementia rather than hearing loss” (p. 312). A large portion of the Mini-Mental State Exam (MMSE) requires the use and comprehension of auditory sensory stimuli. For those who have hearing deficits, clients may not fully understand what is being said or asked of them, which can cause a falsely low score on the MMSE; Hearing loss can negatively influence MMSE results and may not truly reflect a client’s cognitive function. Jorgensen et al.…

    Pros Of Being A Midwife

    Midwifery embraces the reproductive rights of women and instead of limiting the decisions that mothers should be able to make when it comes to their birthing experience, they open up the doors to many options available to the mother without the use of medical interventions. Unlike doctors in hospitals, midwives provide extensive one-on-one health care education and counseling, as well as engage in shared decision-making with their clients and patients. The decision to determine when, where and how a child is brought into this world is not one that many mothers get to experience unless a midwife is chosen due to the lack of knowledge of women’s rights. Childbearing women frequently are not aware of their legal right to make health care choices…
