to be as affective as it should be. One of these flaws is the rising cost of care provided to us. This outrageous increase in cost has many effects on our people for many reasons. First one primarily being that it has became unaffordable. This Unaffordable care for patients means less visits to doctors resulting in more sick people. As costs keep rising and the care stays the same with barely any doctors or nurses to care for you, many think these costs are not worth it. When someone believes…

I am totally satisfied knowing that this part of my career is almost done. If I finish I will obtain a Bachelor of Social Work and a Minor in Early Childhood Education. It has not been an easy road, thankfully I am almost at the end of the road. The moment I decided Social Work and Early Childhood Education at first I thought they were not related at all, but those two years working and studying I learned how one system affects other systems (System Theory). I decided for a different path just…

Why are people overweight these days? One answer I think is it’s expensive to eat healthy. Why are salads so expensive when most of the ingredients are from the ground? Why is everything on the dollar menu unhealthy for you? It’s hard to eat healthy, when you can go to a fast food restaurant like Taco Bell for an example and get full on 5 dollars’ worth of food but if you look at the calorie intake you probably exceeded your max carbohydrates for the day just in one sitting. Now let’s say you…

the organization was a scheduled three weeks in Haiti, helped provide basic medical care and education to the underserved communities of “Cotes-de-Fer” and “Petit Goave.” The experience was eye opening in the sense that it helps me understand some of the logistics that are required to render a minimal level of care.

This led to her garner numerous scholarships, attendance at college receiving numerous degrees and accolades during her crusade of reforming the foster care system. This story had a successful outcome, although the story did not describe what type of therapy she received, I’m sure it was a type of therapy that did change her behavior to accept her adopted family as a family that loved her…

at a faster rate. Since there are no physician networks or a set of providers that the German population are tied to, the continuity of care is not substantial. The German population suffers setbacks from physician and clinician inconsistency. Also, this makes the previous medical records non accessible since none of the providers are linked.
