Martin Ginis, Jetha, Mack, and Hetz (2010) conducted a meta analysis on the subject and found that a small to medium effect size of positive relationships were found in subjective well-being and physical activity in people with spinal cord injuries (Martin Ginis, Jetha, Mack & Hetz, 2010). Additionally, Kehn and Kroll (2009) found an increase in the “quality of life, energy, self- confidence and body image” for…
et al., 2010; Hammond et al., 2001). Other researchers such as Kanbur et al (2012); Ravallion (2012); and others sustained that poverty itself undermines judgment and leads to poor decision making (Kanbur & Sumner, 2012; Ravallion, 2012; Farrigan & Parker, 2012). That makes social poverty unquestionably connected to previous low-quality economic decision making that sprung from social capital deficiencies attributed to one’s horizontal network (Yamamoto & Holloway, 2010; Heath et al., 2010;…
Reflecting on an issue or situation is taking serious thought and consideration of what happened and how one could behave differently or respond differently. So simply, reflection is the ability to turn a negative into a positive. This is incredibly important in nursing practice as when we make a mistake, learn a different technique or a situation happens that we feel we could have handled better, reflection allows us to look back where we went wrong and how we could correct ourselves in the…
Electronic Medication Administration Record and Patient Safety One of the reason medication related deaths occur are due to medication errors (Karen, 2011, p. 1). In fact, within the United States, approximately 7,000 people die each year due to medication errors (Karen, 2011, p. 1). According to Karen (2011) 1.3 million medication errors occur yearly, which relates to several injuries and approximately one death a day related to medication errors in the Unites States (Karen, 2011, p. 1). One…
important for owners to remember that the dietary needs of their pets’ change as their lives go on, and that diets should be based on the overall nutrient profile, rather than the individual ingredients (Freeman & Heinze, 2012; Souliere, 2014; Wargo, 2010). I believe that a grain-free diet should only be used on a case by case diet and that they should not be promoted as general use diet without the proper education in order to avoid many unnecessary and potentially life-threatening…
thinly (Bailey, 1889; Denio, 1897; Henderson, Crews, & Barlow, 1945; Poyntz, 1933). With digital technology, not only has the issue persisted, there are concerns that the impact on learning is even greater than before (Bowman, Levine, Waite, & Gendron, 2010; Fox, Rosen, & Crawford, 2009; Levine, Waite, & Bowman, 2007). Ubiquitous, always-on technology is changing the way humans engage with information and interact with each other. While offering tremendous personal and social enhancements, it…
personal loan for housing, vehicles, education, personal credit cards, consumer durables and others. Among that credit limit for housing loans contributed nearly 49% for 2014 and nearly 66% for 2013. The housing loans are in the decreasing trend from 2010 to 2014. There was a gradual change for 2012. But the loans decreased by more than 50% for 2014. The credit limit also decreased for 2014. In fact, it has been in the decreasing trend from…
(PTSD) (Ozer, Best, Lipsey, & Weiss, 2003); (Berger & Lahad, 2010). Nature therapy is used in order to help reconnect individuals to nature again, since we have moved away from nature as technology has developed (Berger & Lahad, 2010). A Safe Place is a program developed for psycho-education to help developing resiliency and coping within kindergarten. The program is created to join Nature Therapy with the BASIC PH model (Berger & Lahad, 2010). The BASIC PH model states there are six channels…
Safety Process: Six Rights and Three Checks The administration of medication is an integral component of the healthcare provision in the modern world (Koehler & Schwinghammer, 2008). It is necessary for nurses to understand the fundamental ideals that seek to safeguard patient safety and ultimately ensure safe outcomes in relation to the administration of drugs (Koehler & Schwinghammer, 2008). The observance of the Six Rights and Three Checks principles are an example of measures that are…
enrollment rates in online educational programs have greatly increased and exceeded overall student enrollment in higher education (Allen & Seaman, 2010). These numbers are expected to continue to rise each year, particularly due to the downturn of the economy, including rising unemployment rates and increased fuel costs (Allen & Seaman, 2008; Allen & Seaman, 2010). Furthermore, many adult learners are returning to online programs to further their education because of the convenience and…
