I do not think that Nobles was truly rehabilitated. I believe Nobles was just putting on a show to try andget some self-worth, and get people to feel sorry for him. In my opinion, I think that there are a few things we should consider before we can say that someone is truly rehabilitated.…

    The main Factors that could of contributed to Josie’s death were lack of reevaluation, lack of monitoring, poor medication administration/error, lack of communication between different health care providers and lack of consideration and communication for parents concerns. I identified these as contributing factors because as a nurse it is our job to independently assess whether patients should receive prescribed medications as well as explaining to the patient and there family why the order has changed or the reason they are giving the medication. The nurse in this situation did not do this and instead of revaluating the situation or calling the doctor, the nurse simply stated, “The orders have been changed,” (Kindle Locations 609-610). After…

    The police has zero leads, and had no clue where to go in further investigating the crime. When Sacco and Vanzetti, two men who were Italian immigrants, went to pick up a car that was possibly the car used as a getaway vehicle in the crime, the police jumped right on these men, and arrested them both. The police were lost, they needed a suspect. Both of these men were Italian immigrants, so these men were already not respected by America, so the people would be more likely to believe that they were criminals. Sacco and Vanzetti became the prime suspects in this case based on purely circumstantial…
