A quote from the textbook this week I have selected is: Values are the deeply held convictions that influence your thinking when you are faced with choices. (Sukiennik 37)I choose this quote because, I believe that people deal with this on a daily bases. Like advertising, its set up by a corporation and their values to influence the person to buy their product. For example a beauty product can alter a person's opinion about themselves give the people a choice over a cheap imitation product or a…
1. What is cultural safety? Cultural safety was devised by Irihapeti Ramsden, a Maori student nurse, during the 1980’s in New Zealand for Maori nurses and patients who were experiencing culturally inappropriate health services. Today, the concept of cultural safety is an evolving term which refers to a holistically safe environment whereby the professional worker delivers personal care in diverse communities by acknowledging the uniqueness of each service user’s personal, social, and cultural…
What comes to mind for the word integrity? Well with this word in mind integrity can actually stretch to a lot of places with different meanings. Yet I want you to see how I feel in depth with this word. To begin what the word integrity means to me is the act of “being honest, strong, and self-confident.” The actions of the three words I had used for my definition I believe can go through everyone if used in the right way.

How do our life experiences shape our values? Values and beliefs are something most people hold dear to heart. We can begin to form the values from experiences as children or adults.

We value honesty, because we would rather have truthful people in our life who would not hesitate to tell us what is wrong to our faces, rather than talk behind our backs. Education is also valued, because my family wants the next generation to achieve a better…
more than prestige to my family. I was taught that if I had to lose to do the right thing, I would lose but represent Christ. When I was younger this concept was frustrating due to the fact that I am competitive by nature, but as I matured, the values began to settle into place and I was grateful for their stance.

things that money can’t buy. Rules of the market simply do not apply to friendships, true love, Nobel prizes, and many other areas of life such as respect, time, or happiness.
