Resident Evil

institutional videos, I could not help but think about how the residents felt while living in such horrible institutions. Throughout the clips, there was a common theme within each that the residents of institutions were not treated the same as many other civilians. The residents were treated horrible along with the conditions of the institutions being horrendous and unbearable for them. It was clear that the employees did not care about the residents. The videos on Pennhurst, Willow brook, and…

extraverted students that would go to the events and community would happen naturally. That was not the case for my residents this year but I worked so hard to cater to their needs and create our own unique community. I learned a lot about myself and how to connect with residents with different perspectives of my own. Through the process of one on ones, I listened to each resident and asked what they wanted out of their experience in the residence halls. Although it may have been different from…

The first and most important method would be, getting to know the resident. As a nurse aide, I would take some time to sit and talk to my residents. By doing so, I will be building a relationship with the resident which allows for better communication and understanding between one another. This will also help me to figure out what my resident’s favorite activities, hobbies, movies, etc. With this information I could try to incorporate these items into their daily or weekly events which would…

Balancing these roles can be difficult, but the way to balance them is to connect them. Being a community builder does not always mean attending big events, it could mean engaging with residents , accompany them to dinner, walk to class together, or even just hanging out with residents and showing them they have someone on campus they can…

What do you consider to be your most meaningful contribution to Colleges Against Cancer during the 2015-16 year? I think I consider my participation in Relay for Life event as the most meaningful contribution that I have made to Colleges Against Cancer during the school year. I was not able to attend Tuesday meetings especially on winter quarter because of a job I had that needed me on Tuesday nights. However, this did not hinder me to constantly communicate to my other committee members. When…

How to Read a Prescription Label Teaching Project As a nurse teaching is a part of everyday life. Learning to teach properly is essential.

activities that enhanced our residents’ quality of life. Prior to taking this course, I felt I had a good understanding of the TR process and that the programs provided by my department were genuinely therapeutic to the residents. Even after taking this course, I still believe that our recreation department offers quality programs with therapeutic benefits. However, taking this course has served as an evaluation…

scoffing at them, and even go as far as ignoring the students when asked for assistance. Their responsibilities consist of holding events in the lobby, holding events in coordination with other groups on campus, petulantly dealing with their building’s residents (including their personal conflicts), sitting at the desk all day, staring into their phones, and filing the…

to do volunteer work, they made me aware that this is an organization is a for profit organization. That means all the employees are getting paid to do all of the work that they do, and the price to live here is going to be more expensive for the residents due to having staff members available 24/7 around the clock. I asked, “how much charity work is done here,” and Lisa Schmitz the Administrator said, “There is not many people that opt to come in for free other than churches and some bands that…
