...shape and develop the field of Public Administration into what it is today. Henry’s premises states that public administration now includes two paradigms and those are the independence and purpose of public administration. Independence and purpose are crucial to the existence of public administration and without it the study would ultimately be drowned out. Purpose gives the field a need for its existence and individuality it the freedom to choose its own destiny. The study has come very far over the years and continues to grow into a well-rounded discipline. Public Administration and Public Affairs is a text written by Nicholas Henry. Within this text Henry describes how he believes the study of Public Administration has over time developed into an academic discipline. Henry accomplishes this by outlining six paradigms which evolved in succession of one another. The sequence of paradigms defines a self-analysis of the field of Public Administration. The six paradigms that Henry discussed with great detail are as follows: Paradigm 1: The Politics/Administration Dichotomy (1900-1926), Paradigm 2: Principles of Public Administration (1927-1937), Paradigm 3: Public Administration as Political Science (1950-1970, Paradigm 4: Public Administration as Management (1950-1970), Paradigm 5: Public Administration as Public Administration (1970-Present), and Paradigm 6: Governance (1990-Present). Henry’s six paradigms of Public Administration tells a historical...

...Nursing as a practice- oriented discipline Nursing as practice oriented discipline is the ability of the nurse to articulate the significance of what they do as an essential thread of contemporary health care provision. The main essence of practice oriented discipline is the application of the theories on your activities of daily living. Nursing exist to provide nursing care for clients who experience illness, as well as for those who may experience potential health care problems. Nurses deal with peoples human condition and their responses to health and illness. Nurses help in monitoring the living experience of people as they deal with health and illness while caring for them. Nurses who care for patients in primary health care settings may have to structure their encounters in more creative ways to increase their understanding of the daily life processes and the integrated patterns of their clients responses to health and illness within an context of limited time. Conducting comprehensive assessment, medical histories, performing daily activities such as blood pressure monitoring, administering medication and carrying out treatments. The on-going relationships with nurses’ prompts clients to share their experiences in more relative dialogues, allowing more details, meaning and history that make their health and illness experiences more understandable and allow for more congruent plan of actions. 2.2 Nursing as a health- oriented discipline Nurses practice in a growing...

...In the workforce, there are two categories of how jobs are classified. There are jobs that are in the public sector, such as state and federal government jobs, and jobs that are in the private sector, which would be all other jobs not included in the public sector, such as working for a local organization or company that is not controlled by some form of government. Unlike other topics that have been covered throughout the course, most of the general population has a clear understanding distinguishing the difference between jobs that are in the public and private sector. However, something they may not know is that there is a difference between public sector labor relations and private sector labor relations. Most people believe that labor relations are the same in the public and private sector and that the title just changes based on whether it is a public sector job or a job that is found in the private sector. Having work experience in both the public sector, as well as the private sector, I am able to see the difference that exists with the labor relations process between the two. From my experience, the labor relations process in the public sector seems to gain more attention than the labor relations process in the private sector. However, there is a reason for this as public sector labor relations has an interesting history. In the beginning, public employees were required to lobby to their legislators for favorable employment for collective bargaining, an activity whereby...

...and civil service reform | Increasing productivity in the public sector | | Lauren Patrick | Professor Marion Mason | POLS7305 34800 Institutional Leadership SEC 01 April 22, 2011 Executive Summary The target audience is the City of Boston labor management commission and the Massachusetts legislature. The current collective bargaining agreement between the City of Boston and AFSCME and the Massachusetts Legislature, Title IV, Chapter 31 creates controlling and overly-bureaucratic policies. These policies outline employee procedures, in particular hiring, disciplining, promoting and evaluation procedures that are outdated and ineffective. Unions protect employees from unfair employment practices, yet some have hurt the overall staff morale and productivity. There is a deep and long standing perception of public employees that they are lazy and incompetent. This is far from the truth, but certain policies regarding hiring, promoting, and disciplinary actions are decreasing employee productivity. To incorporate motivational elements in the public sector and give more discretion to public managers, policies must be changed. When a manager would like to promote an employee, it is a long and drawn out process, that often after much effort is exhibited, the potential promotion falls through. Where the private sector motivates through financial incentives and promotions, the public sector has no tools to promote good work ethics. A public sector promotion...

...Human services refers to a variety of delivery systems such as social welfare services, education, mental health services, and other forms of healthcare. Human services professionals may provide services directly to clients or help clients access services. Human services professionals also manage agencies that provide these services. And because of their engagement with human conditions, they are involved in policy development and advocacy. The academic discipline of human services educates these professionals at the associate, bachelor's, and graduate levels and studies how delivery systems and public policies affect service users. The history of human services as an academic discipline[edit] Human services has its roots in charitable activities of religious and civic organizations that date back to the Colonial period. However, the academic discipline of human services did not start until the 1960s. At that time, a group of college academics started the new human services movement and began to promote the adoption of a new ideology about human service delivery and professionalism among traditional helping disciplines.[2] The movement's major goal was to make service delivery more efficient, effective, and humane. The other goals dealt with the reeducation of traditional helping professionals to have a greater appreciation of the individual as a whole person and to be accountable to the communities they serve. Furthermore, professionals would learn to take responsibility at...
