The Butt

judgment, which defined by Butts & Rich as a “standard used to guide medical decision-making for formerly competent patients who no longer have any decision-making skills” (Butts & Rich, 2016). It would have been hard to know what the patient wanted due to her entering the hospital with a dramatic brain injury and never really being able to express her wishes on the what “if’s” in her care. The best interest standard could have been implemented which defined by Butts & Rich as is “an evaluation…

litter (CigaretteLitter.org, 2015). Dropping cigarette butts and cigar tips to the ground, putting them in garden beds, and disposing of them in waterways is littering. The belief amongst some smokers that cigarettes are biodegradable is incorrect, most filters in cigarettes (CigaretteLitter.org, 2015) contain toxic chemicals that can leak into soil, are poisonous to wildlife, and pollute our water sources (Greenhalgh, 2011). “One cigarette butt soaked in a liter of water under controlled…

are where a person needs to stop smoking before they can continue on to the next place. So places like bus stops, store entrances, and walkways, are where ash receptacles are most needed. For every ash receptacle, the littering rate for cigarette butts decreases 9%. But yet, only 47% of observed points have an ash receptacle. ("Cigarette Litter Misconceptions."). If less than 50% of transition points have receptacles then there are things that could be done. Putting more receptacles in…

the top right part of the sculpture; its quality is damaged and it appears to have been burned. Cigarette butts encircle the case and are strategically placed to appear as if they…

clinic is billing Medicaid wrongly. Conversely she is worried about losing her job if she refuses to comply with the directives of the supervisor without considering her moral integrity as a nurse practitioner (Butts & Rich, 2016, p. 82). 2. The ethical principle involved is beneficence. (Butts & Rich, 2016) argue that, according to ANA, 2015, “Nurses are directed in provision 2.1 of Code of Ethics for Nurses to have their patients’ interests and well-being as their primary concern.” In this…

Hello Professor and class, Deaths for the scientific community could be expressed as how an organism stops in complete all biological functions. In a more existentialistic and humanistic approach it could be said that death is the end of a life, that is why at time it can be referred simply as passing away. When it comes to the end of life care definition may vary from the length of the life ending issue. It can range from taking care of someone from a few hours up to several years. This…

fills in the gaps that were lost in translation. Butts states that, though the language barrier is a slight issue, Beowulf is able to be understood because of the poet 's use of imagery to create a mood (Butts 2-3). However, all the imagery used can become slightly confusing such as Grendel 's mere. The confusion between the images of the sea and the lake that surround Grendel 's mere is created to make his lair seem more terrifying (Butts 5). The poet utilizes images to create a…

But there was a problem, we had no more subs. I strapped a bag of ice onto my butt, and with a lot of tape i was send back onto the field. At this point there was only about 10 mins left, but nothing can top the humor of seeing me prancing around with ice taped to my rear. At about 5 mins left my bag broke, releasing ice all over…

Quit Smoking Now Americans are probably the most impatient people on planet earth. They are so impatient that they all want everything yesterday already. They can not just calm down and take a breather for a couple minutes. When Americans want everything so fast and do not get a break they get crabby and stressed out. They then have to do something to try and get rid of all that stress. Some deal with their stress by going for walks. Others deal with it by working on something else or reading a…

classroom and what actually takes place in the clinical setting. According to Butts & Rich (2013), the theory-practice gap has been difficult to close and it is attributed to “the inability of nurses to use theory in practice.” (p. 51). Moreover, Advanced Practice Nurses (APNs) seem more prone to disassociate themselves from nursing theory as medical knowledge becomes a more intricate part of their clinical practice. (Butts & Rich, 2013). Grand theories, by their abstract nature, do not…
