The practice of nursing is controlled through the standards of practice, licensure, and nurse practice acts (Harrington & Terry, 2013, p. 194). There are six (6) ANA Standards of Practice assessment, diagnosis, outcome identification, planning, implementation, and evaluation. Currently as an LPN during the planning process I contribute and help with the development of nursing care plans for patients (Harrington & Terry, 2013, p. 204).

I have mixed feelings about Jackson. As some say, he did expand the voting base and he struck a blow against the planter Aristocracy that had been running the country. His treatment of the Indians though shows him in a different light. He certainly didn't extend the voting franchise to them. Thumbing his nose at the Supreme Court over the issue gives him an Imperial air. Moving the tribes to Oklahoma may have been a best of all possible outcomes sort of thing. There probably would have been a…

These are the words of, Alejandro González Iñárritu, the director of Biutiful, when asked about the shooting of the film.

By now we've all heard the expression “nurses eat their young”. This statement refers to a culture of hazing, bullying, and various other deplorable treatment toward peers, most cases new hires. The ANA defines bullying as “repeated, unwanted harmful actions intended to humiliate, offend and cause distress in the recipient,” The worst aspect of this issue is that t is typically done in front of other nurses.
