In analyzing the Provision three of the American Association Code of Ethics, I was enlightened by quite a few interesting key points that were covered in this section. This section (Provision three) covers a nurses duty as it relates to privacy, safety and patient rights. Among other duties, the nurse is to be the patient’s advocate in the healthcare setting to assure all caregivers treat them justly (American Nurses Association). If it is discovered a caregiver is incompetent or impaired, the nurse is to make a judgment call on behalf of the patient. According to provision three of the ANA code of ethics, nurses are to knowledgeable and well versed in laws (both state and federal) as well as policies within the healthcare setting he or she…
As the nation has evolved, the interpretation of the Constitution has varied. While the Sixth Amendment has been largely upheld in most domestic cases, in fact it has routinely been denied to those who are entitled to its protection when the government deems the situation as a threat to national security. Similarly, the understanding of the Eighth Amendment has been strictly interpreted in matters of domestic law, but the meaning is deviated from in cases where national security has taken the…

There is a controversial issue in regards to whether or not the actions of Dr. S. and Dr. V. violated Stark Law. The Stark Law is a federal statute which imposing doctors and physicians are not allowed to referrer their patients to facilities in which they have affiliations with. This law was implemented based on the case of Dr. S. and Dr. V., in which they leased a nuclear camera to refrain from sending their patients to another center. I do believe that the actions of Dr. S. and Dr. V. were a violation of the Stark Law. One of the first violations of Dr. S. and Dr. V. was the decision to lease their own camera without taking inconsideration the impact it would have on the outside parties.…
Analysis of Rhetorical Project For this assignment, I decided to work off a subject that truly “strums” a string in my heart, which is racism, particularly the “Stop and Frisk” law which has arised in New York. This unfair law has been in my subconscious, as it strikes me as both illogical, and quite offensive to minorities. While the law aims to create “safety”, as well as eliminate criminal activity, it truly offends those who are suspected of crime, especially when a large sum of those people randomly happen to be POC. And, according to NYPD’s reports, 9 out of 10 of the chosen suspects are innocent. These people are pulled simply because they have a certain “look”, and I find it to be not only offensive, but…
The Pendleton Act was adopted in January of 1883 after President James A. Garfield was assassinated by an upset job-seeker, Charles Guiteau, who had previously been turned down for a job at the White House after supporting President Garfield (Kellough, 2018, p. 8). Prior to the assassination of President Garfield, Senator George H. Pendleton already noticed the system was flawed and was trying to gain support for the act (Pendleton Act, 1883). Following Garfield's assassination, Vice President Chester Arthur signed the Pendleton Act of 1883 to replace the spoils and patronage system for appointment with a merit system (Kellough, 2018, p. 9). The passage of the Pendleton Act created a new atmosphere for employment in civil service.…
Upon studying the laws of ancient Babylon, it is apparent that the civilization took a tough on crime approach with serious concerns for social order and control. The Law Code of Hammurabi (ca. 1800 B.C.E.) sought to bring justice to ancient Babylon “so that the strong should not harm the weak” (Strayer 95). In some ways, the codes negate the above intention through class divides, gender inequality, and familial punishments. Gender and social class hierarchies determined how crimes would be punished, therefore demonstrating how Babylonian society valued external social controls and normative family structures for societal functioning.…
Although children were servants throughout most of human history, child labor reached new extremes during the Industrial Revolution. The Conditions children worked in were horrific and violated human rights, these practices needed to come to an end. Nineteenth century reformers and labor organizers sought to restrict child labor and improve working conditions but, it took a huge effort to sway public opinion. Forms of child labor such as indentured servitude and child slavery have existed all throughout American history, when industrialization forced workers to move from farms and home workshops into factory work children were often employed.…

Throughout time laws have come and gone. Many different generations have seen acts that were once considered criminal turn legal, and vice versa. One law that has fluctuated in consistency and rule since 1938 is the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA). The FLSA is in place to protect workers and is regulated by the United States Department of Labor (DOL). The FLSA encompasses several aspects of the work force that require regulation, including child labor, minimum wage, and overtime pay (Cheeseman, 454).…
The topic of racial profiling among minorities in America has been an impassioned and tempestuous affair for the last century. Racial profiling is defined as the use of ethnicity for the grounds of suspecting someone of having committed an offense (Wikipedia). In history, unjust federal and local laws have targeted minority groups, and have been a major issue in recent years. Until now, actions have been taken through protests and brought to the public’s attention.…
