Security
For my field work internship i am interning at a hospital as a security guard. For my paper i wanna look at the relationship of hospital staff and patient with mental illness. I had gone into this with no experience at all with dealing with people besides what i have learned from normal day to day interactions. Security is a very interesting field. There are many different types of levels of security which have different levels of difficulty. From what i have seen hospital security could be one of the most challenging of them all. When you go to a hospital you usually do not go there for fun. A hospital is usually filled with people who are sick and possibly and dying which means one of many …show more content…
So for example of you are found hanging with bad kids you will be looked at by others as a bad kid. Label theory pertains much to patients with mental health issues. Under labeling theory there are a few concepts which explains how these patients will always be labeled(Lee 2017). To start there is two types of deviance primary deviance and secondary deviance (kenney 2002). Primary focuses on deviant behavior that everybody does. Secondary deviance is when someone makes something out of their behavior which results in negative labeling(kenney 2002). There is definitely a negative stigma when dealing with patients that have specific types of mental illnesses.

But my future gail is to be a cop and work in law enforcement. As you can see today the relationship of the public and the police is very poor. I beleive if all cops were given a chance to see life from the point of view froma secuirty guard who does not carry a gun, taser, mace, or a baton one might see the importance of using other powerful skills like knewledge and your words. I had resloved many secanrios with just speaking to somone who was very upset. Witht the stastics from above you can see how many people out there have menatl health issues it is important that our first repsonders have a very clear understainding of people with these health problems. I hope for my future i can futhrer use this knowledge and infromation to help me find a job as well make myself a better
