Matzo

Over four hundred salads, two hundred sandwiches, and one thousand soups prepared that was the busiest lunch rush in Panera Breads recent history. Panera Bread, of Hadley is a restaurant franchise that serves thousands of customers every day and satisfies the vast majority of them. My job is to train you to be an employee with the necessary patience and training. Training to help develop the know how and muscle memory to become a valued employee at this successful franchise. Congrats on being hired at Panera Bread, Hadley, me as a trainer it is my job to show and describe an average workday very thoroughly step by step. The first step of any workday is being dressed to work with a tucked in collared shirt, pants, an assigned apron with white embroidering, slip resistant shoes and a Panera Bread hat with the mother bread logo. After being dressed to work you can clock in at the registers in the front, then go to the deployment where every worker’s assigned work station is listed. Let’s start with the sandwich station, usually online learning and trainer shadowing come first, but I believe the most effective way of learning is by “jumping head first” so here we go. Before working with the food we need to have washed and gloved hands then I’ll guide you through the breads and ingredients. We have many different kinds of breads cut, baked, and prepared for specific sandwiches, whether it be our tomato basil bread for the bacon turkey bravo or it be the sourdough bread for the…

Passover (Pesach) Passover is a Jewish holiday that is celebrated in the spring, from the 15th through the 22nd of the Hebrew month of Nissan. Passover is the holiday of Matzot, and the holiday of Freedom. It’s the holiday of Matzot because, that is what the Jewish people ate when they left Egypt. It’s the holiday of freedom, because that’s when the Jews we free of slavery and left Egypt. There are a few parts of Passover but I’m only going to discuss 3 of them, The Story of Passover/ plagues,…

Jewish foods are mainly centered around religion, these being matzo, a sympathetic-magic food and tzimmes which is a famous cultural prestige food. One of the most common Jewish foods is matzo, also called matza and matzah which is classified as a sympathetic magic food. These foods are symbolic and often used in religious contexts. Matzo is an unleavened bread, that is said to be the official food of the Jewish holiday Passover. During Passover, the bread is broken into pieces and eaten at…

The final hours before death are known as the peri-death period (Matzo & Sherman, 2015). During the peri-death period two bodily processes often happen simultaneously. The body begins to physically shut down, and an emotional and spiritual release occurs as the physical body approaches death (Matzo & Sherman, 2015). Matzo and Sherman (2015 describe certain physical symptoms that become evident as an individual approaches end-of-life (EOL). Metabolism transformations in the body cause sleep…

Bronchodilators, Mucolytics, Diuretics, and Anxiolytics can be given for the progression of COPD, and the symptoms that accompany this disease (Matzo & Sherman, 2015, pp. 338-339). These medications can be used to decrease inflammation and exacerbations, as well as decrease the anxiety he experiences. It is also important for him to cluster his activities, take frequent naps, and not overexert…

Estelle is unable to move and therefore increasing her risk of potentially acquiring pressure ulcers or skin tears. Although the compromise of skin integrity is not always inevitable in a patient who are undergoing palliative care (Matzo & Sherman, 2015) interventions must be set in place to prevent this issue. These may include having the nurse complete daily skin assessments to evaluate the integrity and intervene early if any signs are noted that could indicate a potential risk factor.…

Reading your post was a pleasure; in it you discussed the importance of dignity, respect and compassion in the nursing field, as well as the role nurses play in providing hospice care. Hospice care is provided to patients during their last six months of life and focuses on care that is palliative, meaning emphasis is placed on relieving symptoms such as pain and stress. An important principle of hospice care centers on respecting the needs, and values of patients (Matzo & Sherman, 2015). This…

the way stopping a few times to purchase food for the continuation of their journey. They also stopped in Vologda, where they were transferred onto small ships, still not knowing where they were headed to. Finally, their destination came in Siberia. They were put in prison camps. Her family was in these prison camps from June 1940-August 1941. When Pesach came close, her family wanted to have Matzah. Her father wrote to a Rabbi in Poland to ship them Matzo. They were allowed to receive outside…

It’s an act with an intention to end one’s life to relieve them of further suffering and is sometimes misunderstood and used incorrectly. Sanders & Chaloner (2007) stated it is more appropriately defined as assisted dying, which has an influence on healthcare practice as it elicits valid ethical questions. The controversy revolves around the moral validity and acceptability of voluntary euthanasia. Ethical concepts such as rights and autonomy are argued by those who favor this act. A specific…

As a nurse I would say the most difficult barrier to overcome would be the clinician related barrier. The reason I choose this is instead of patient related pain management, is because through experience and a proper assessment you can identify if a patient is in pain. If they say they are not in pain this offers an opportunity for patient education. Matzo and Sherman (2015) identified some clinician barriers as: inadequate knowledge of pain management, incomplete assessments of pain, regulation…
