A range of studies done by the University of Chicago’s American Journal of Sociology have found that living in poor neighborhoods negatively impacts residents— particularly low-income, people of color— due to the lack of high quality housing, jobs, and schools. These individuals are more likely than their counterparts in wealthier neighborhoods to “participate in and be victims of criminal activity, experience…

here," said Germania Perez, 70. Residents of the islands are struggling to maintain a semblance of the life they had before Irma as they fight off hunger and thirst. Water supplies are contaminated and there is no groundwater to start with. They need to get water and food and shelter as a first response. Residents are now trying to rebuild, however, for most this is the most challenging situation. Losing their homes and loved ones makes it even hard for the residents to get back on their feet.…

physical location of a primary care facility may determine the number of residents that seek care and maintain care. If a primary care facility is located in a part of a rural area reasonably accessible to all residents, more resident may seek and maintain care. Although, if the structure of the facility is located in a convenient area and noticeably provides services that provoke and/or promote social stigmas, rural residents may seek limited care, incomplete care, or ignore care. The…

them very little money because they are from Favelas. The Favela-Bairro helped build back the relationship between the residents of the Favelas and the government. But at the same time it lowered the relationship with the upper class and the government because the upper class thinks that Favela-Bairro will increase crime rates. Favela-Bairro help lower the tension between the residents of the Favelas and the government. But with everything that increased the relationship…

red, yellow, blue and green. eating breakfast. As breakfast winds down, several residents fall asleep in their wheelchair. The nurses buzz up and down the hallway, and the hallway is covered in decorations; paintings, frilly metal decor, and barn stars - that doesn’t even cover half of it. The walls are a pinkish brown, and the carpets have a green tinge to them. That bothers me. Breakfast is now ending and the residents flow from the dining room up to the beauty shop, back to their rooms, and…

that point would contribute to residents who I need to care for because I still felt inexperienced and did not want to hurt them physically or emotionally by accident. That being said I understand that I think I need to do more practice on the skills I am less confident at. I was less worried when I got to shadow one of the care aides who was patient, kind, and understanding. I could say that I learned a lot from what I saw how she performed her care to each resident very smoothly, efficiently,…

From my meeting with Alex Simeone, a resident assistant from Bohn Hall, this past week, I gained an immense amount of information about the overall position as a resident assistant (RA) but also insight about personal takeaways that is unique to the experience at Montclair State University. One of the most profound takeaways was his genuine love for the position itself and being able to provide guidance and balance for both his residents and himself. I understand that a RA’s duties is not easy…

As the owner of Shady Land Living, there was a time when I never thought this would be my career. I never imagined myself going for care giver / manager certification training. I had never even given a thought to care giver / manager certification training, but, then there came a need. My own mother was getting older and having trouble taking care of herself. As a loving daughter, I felt it was my honor to care for her. I think got to thinking about those who didn't have family or friends to…

they think of their job as a challenging job. There’s also another study in this text; it’s tosee whether resident satisfaction has something to do with the commitment of the CNA to their job. Ido believe that if the CNA loves their job than it does affect the resident’s experience. If the nurse lovestheir job they are going to be happier about going in to work and while helping the residents. Theresidents will feel more comfortable and that also goes with communication as well; they will feel…

There are many important aspects that a researcher would want to consider before choosing to examine the social disorder of neighborhoods and crime throughout the city. Social disorder is defined as, “conditions of some neighborhoods with high levels of, for example, unmonitored youth misbehaving, drug dealers, people openly and illegally using alcohol or other drugs, and fighting” (Inderbitzin, Bates, & Gainey, 2016, p. 578). Things that I feel are important when examining the social disorder…
