...Name__________________________________ Period ___ Date __________________ 26.2 – A Society on the Move What social and economic factors changed American life during the 1950s? Between 1940 and 1960, 40 million Americans moved to the suburbs, one of the largest mass migrations in history. Rural regions suffered the most dramatic decline in population. Because few houses were built during the war, the U.S. had a severe shortage of urban housing. Newly married veterans who needed housing looked to the suburbs. Rural regions and older industrial cities suffered dramatic declines in population. At this time of peak demand, developers began to quickly build affordable housing. William Levitt became a leader in mass producing suburban homes. Entire rows of houses in Levittown were built using the same plan. Workers could build houses in weeks rather than months built three Levittowns—in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania—which became blueprints for other suburbs soon springing up across the country. Home buyers could use an installment plan, paying $58 a month towards the cost of the home. Levitt built three Levittowns—in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania—which became blueprints for other suburbs soon springing up across the country. Other developers adopted Levitt's techniques, and suburbs were soon springing up across the country. New home buyers received low‐interest home loans courtesy of the GI Bill of Rights and the Federal ...

...Education Today’s health care environment is undergoing significant changes due to complex patient’s needs, chronic health conditions, and technological innovations. Educating nurses within the 21st century requires a creative integration of knowledge, skill set, and caring within an increasingly complex healthcare system (Institute of Medicine [IOM], 2010). Nursing education is heavily laden with continuous content increases to be covered within the curriculum (Devereaux-Melillo, Dowling, Abdallah, Findeisen, & Knight, 2013). The need to examine curricular transformation is imperative in order to manage content saturation, and abate the separation of the classroom and clinical teaching. This paper will outline the following processes: (a) the development of a concept-based curricular plan for a baccalaureate program, (b) the impact of a concept-cased curriculum (CBC) on the faculty, students, finances, community of interests, accreditation, and (c) examples of the integration of competencies. Development of Concept-Based Curricular Plan Nursing faculty are challenged with curriculum, for they are presenting an astronomical amount of material to “cover the content”. According to Duncan and Schulz (2015) nurses practice conceptually on a daily basis by focusing on the patient needs, regardless of the medical diagnoses assigned. In order to practice conceptually, nurses must think conceptually by grouping important facts into concepts that can then be transferred from one...

...Background North Country Auto, Inc., was a fmnchised dealer and factory-authorized service center for Ford, Saab, and Volkswagen. Multipl e franchi ses were becoming more common in the 1980s. But the value of multiple franchises did not com e ,vithout costs. Each of the three manufacturers used a different computerized system for tracking inventory and placing new orders. They also required their dea lerships to maintain an adequate service facility with a crew of trained technicians that, in turn , necessitated carrying an inventory of parts to be used in repairs. Exhibit 2 gives balance sheet data with a brea kout of investment for each product lin e. North Country also operated a body shop, and in mid-1989 opened a "whil e-you-wa it" oil change service for any ma ke of vehicl e. The dealership was situated in an upstate New York town with a population of about 20,000. It served two nearby towns of about 4,000 people as well as rural areas covering a 20-mile radius. North Country began operations in 1968, and in 1983 moved one mile down the road to its current 6-acre lot, 25,000 square-foot faciljty. It was owned as a corporation by George Liddy and Andrew Jones, who were both equa lly active in day-to-day operations. Mr. Liddy purchased an interest in the dealership from a...

...of Nursing In partial fulfillment of the requirements of N5311 Nursing Management in Health Care Stephanee Thurman, MSN, RN August 1, 2012 2 THE FUTURE OF HOME HEALTH The Future of Home Health Home health has been the topic of several news discussions lately. Doctors and nurses are afraid that since Medicare fraud has taken place in so many home health agencies, that Medicare is going to start shutting down a lot of home health agencies so that they have less fraud to watch out for. The studies I have chosen discuss positive outcomes that are related to providing care in the patient’s home. I have worked in home health for four years. In those four years, home health services have been through many changes. After obtaining my Masters of Science in Nursing I plan on continuing to work in home health. I would like to move up to a management position after graduation. Home health is interesting to me and I enjoy working with patients in their home environment. Patients seem to be more motivated in their home setting instead of being in a rehabilitation center or hospital. “In home nursing care, patient care activities focus on enabling patients to assume responsibility for self-monitoring and self-management through teaching, supporting, goal setting, and modeling decision-making” (Or, Valdez, Casper, Carayone, Burke, Brennan & Karsh, 2007, 201). Working in home health, communication is very important. The nurse is usually the discipline...

...Motivation 1 KEY THEORIES OF MOTIVATION Motivation is the driving force behind human behaviour. Motivation and human management Motivated people are those who have made a conscious decision to devote considerable effort to achieving something that they value. What they value will differ greatly from one individual to another. There are a variety of ways to motivate people, including the fear of losing a job, financial incentives, selffulfilment goals and goals for the organisation or groups within the organisation. The traditional view - finds some of its origins in the work of Taylor and the school of scientific management. At its most extreme, this view postulates the following: people dislike work people will only work for money people are not capable of controlling their work or directing themselves simple, repetitive tasks will produce the best results workers should be closely supervised and tightly controlled extra effort must lead to greater reward people will meet standards if they are closely controlled firm but fair supervision will be respected Taylor took the view that there is a right (meaning best) way to perform any task. It is management’s job to determine the right way. Workers gain from this approach because the ‘right way’ is easier and pay is enhanced as a result of increased productivity. The human relation view - originates in the work of Mayo, known as the Hawthorne Studies. The series of studies essentially concluded that the strongest motivational...

They objected to the management's decision to expand production, which will impair the quality of the cars, resulting in the escalation of malfunctioning automobiles in the last few months.

...Univers was designed by Adrian Frutiger in 1956 and released by the Deberny & Pe ignot type foundry in 1957. It is a neo-grotesque sans serif; it features optica lly even stroke weights and a large x-height to improve legibility. It s become kn own for the variety of weights and set-widths included in the family. At the tim e it was designed it included 21 variations, and was the first type family to im plement a numbering system as opposed to using names. Today there are over 27 di fferent variations of Univers available. Univers is an extremely diverse typefac e that has the ability to work very well at large display sizes for applications such as headlines and mastheads as well as in small sizes for body copy. During the 1990s, Adrian Frutiger worked together with Linotype to expand his cl assic Univers family.
