Resident

Before starting my practicum at Lutheran Social Services I already had researched information regarding those within the elderly. I wanted to explore seeing ways I can offer my services for those within this population before taken such action. I honestly wasn’t sure how I was going to be able to apply doing “inform scientific inquiry” without knowing how to do this in an effective way or back up the information I had gathered. So overall, what I had thought about this competency was that I had…

colleagues who work hard every day to make the residence experience better.

What do you consider to be your most meaningful contribution to Colleges Against Cancer during the 2015-16 year?

They also are a large contributor in establishing…

far away to be able to take care of their relative’s needs. In such situations, many residents are placed into nursing homes. The theory behind nursing homes is that they are places of love and care for senior citizens and elderly inhabitants that may require special care. At the mention of nursing homes, many individuals will recall a depressing and dreary image. This image corresponds with the neglect that residents of such nursing homes are subjected to.

Amid the examination of Mrs. Muliaga's passing, Mercury Energy had a "don't disengage" approach with their rule or methodology (Bridgman, 2010). The contractor was familiar with the policy as he used it prior to Mrs. Muliaga’s demise in similar situations when he had knowledge that disconnecting the power could cause harm to those inside the home. Furthermore, Mrs. Muliaga and her family…

The community watched as a building progressed into a group home. Throughout the months they discussed whether it would be men, women, or a family moving into the home. They discussed the possible reason and how it could change their lives. This became a constant conversation throughout the neighborhood. They wondered how it was going to affect their environment and hoped that the people were kind. Over time the community realized that three males with schizophrenia were moving into the home.…

and manage what is in my control. I take criticism hard, but I also use it as a tool to improve and become better. Why is the programming component vital to the duties of a Resident Assistant? The programing component is vital because it develops a sense of leadership for the RA and community for the residents.
