I never thought initiation of nursing was men started. Nursing is still dominated by women such as giving love and care like motherhood. It is amazing how nursing has been developed for all decades. First trend is the changing of nursing uniform. There are so many changes about uniforms and caps. It was white uniforms, white shoes, and white caps which is very uncomfortable to practice in bedside nursing. White uniforms get dirty easily such as blood spot and stains. It has been changed to better way to be comfortable scrubs with design. It looks more professional and functional. Second trend is the advanced of technology for caring for patients. New technology has been invented continuously to improve the patient care for treating and diagnosing disease. Nurses have more knowledge and responsibility for patient care by dealing with the advanced technology such as Intra-aortic balloon pump, Aquapheresis,CVVH PA catheter,etc. Those technologies promote to efficient quality of care. Third trend is the growing need for continuing education. Hospital persuade to RN to have BSN instead of Associated degree or Diploma in nursing. Nowadays, there are so many high education opportunities such as nurse practitioner, nurse anesthesia, nurse educator, MSN, BSN. This make nursing field to be respected more. I enjoyed...

...(1987) proposed functional health patterns as a guide for establishing a comprehensive nursing data base. A family’s functional health patterns evolve from a client_enviromental interaction. Each pattern is a expression of biopsychosocial integration.There is no one pattern which can be understood without the knowledge of other patterns. Functional health patterns are influenced by biological, developmental, cultural, social, and spiritual factors.A functional pattern represents a healthy set of behaviors.The judgement of whether a pattern is functional or dysfunctional is made by comparing assessment data. These 11 categories make possible a systematic and standardized approach to data collection, and enable the nurse to determine the different aspects of health and human function. This paper will discuss the nurse’s role in family assessment and how this task is performed by the use of family focused open ended questions. Using Gordon’s functional health patterns, this paper will summarize the findings of each health pattern as well as the family based nursing diagnosis of each assessment.

...Health Patterns: The Taylor Family Amber D. Yancoskie Grand Canyon University: NRS-429 Family Centered Health Promotion December 9, 2012 Gordon’s Functional Health Patterns is a system that was created by Marjorie Gordon in 1987. This system served as a guide to establishing a broader nursing database. Gordon’s 11 functional health patterns consist of values/health perception, nutrition, sleep/rest, elimination, activity/exercise, cognitive, self perception, role relationship, sexuality, and coping. Assessment is the first tool in the nursing process in formulating health care plans for the individual as well as the family. A thorough assessment lays groundwork to promote family health (Edelman & Mandle, 2010). The patterns of functional health can be used to determine how a family interacts with one another and deals with their everyday life. According to Catherine Ross, a professor at the University of Illinois; “It is in the family that the macro-level social and economic order affects individual physical and emotional well-being” (Mirowsky, Goldsteen & Ross, 1990 para.1). This essay will describe the health patterns of the Taylor family by using specific questions personalized to each of the 11 functional health patterns. The Taylor family is comprised of Judy, 52 years old and David, 53 years old. The two have been separated for more than fifteen years and have three adult children and five grandchildren. Joshua, the eldest is 28 years old and engaged...
