...The evolution of the nurse practitioner started with the Junior Doctors New Deal (NHSE 1991) and the compliance of junior doctors working hours from the European Working Time Directive which reduced the maximum hours a junior doctor can work each week and therefore created a massive hole that the NHS needed to fill. The publication of the document The Scope of Practice (UKCC1992) recognised that nurses could expand their roles through further education and training, and undertake roles that were once the domain of junior doctors. It wasn’t until 1999 when the Department of Health published Making a Difference (DoH1999)which identified the contribution of nurses to the health care team, but then further identified that nurses could expand and develop new roles to improve patient care and services. The Department of Health published a further document NHS Plan (2000) which included the Chief Nursing Officers 10 key roles which advocated the ability of nurses to order diagnostic tests, perform minor surgery, run outpatient clinics, and to admit and discharge patients from their work load. These are key roles of the surgical care practitioner. The Royal College of Surgeons of England published Developing a Modern Surgical Workforce (RCS Eng 2005) identified that modern surgical practices required multi-professional team working and also identified that Non- Qualified Medical Practitioners (NQMP) would become permanent members of the surgical team. The role of the Surgical Care...

...teacher dragged a hand through his messy hair, watching the children and taking cautious glances down the hallways parallel their current location. Behind him, another teacher nervously chewed her lower lip, smiling half-heartedly at the toddler she had been paired with when the girl happily swung their clasped hands back and forth. Noticing her anxiety, the teacher took a moment from his position on guard to give her a nod that was meant to be reassuring. Despite the lack of worry visible on his face, his hands tightened on his own shoes. He hoped the other students were safe. ~ "Aominecchi~! It was so intense this morning, but I finally have my pilot's license! Of course, I misread the altimeter again," there was a quiet huff, and the officer could just see his former teammate's effeminate pout, "but my instructor said that she was so impressed with how 'calm and collected' I was the whole time, even when…" Aomine Daiki reclined lazily in his chair, stretching out his back and legs like a cat settling in for a pleasant nap,...

...Preface There is no doubt that we are in the midst of a great revolution in the history of women. The evidence is everywhere; the voice of women is increasingly heard in Parliament, courts and in the streets. While women in the West had to fight for over a century to get some of their basic rights, like the right to vote, the Constitution of India gave women equal rights with men from the beginning. Unfortunately, women in this country are mostly unaware of their rights because of illiteracy and the oppressive tradition. Names like Kalpana Chawla: The Indian born, who fought her way up into NASA and was the first women in space, and Indira Gandhi: The Iron Woman of India was the Prime Minister of the Nation, Beauty Queens like Aishwarya Rai and Susmita Sen, and Mother Teresa are not representative of the condition of Indian women. Over 32000 murders, 19,000 rapes, 7500 dowry deaths and 36500 molestation cases are the violent crimes reported in India in 2006 against women. There are many instances of crime especially against women go unreported in India. These are figures released by the National Crime Records Bureau recently. While Madhya Pradesh is worst off among the states, the national capital New Delhi continues to hold on to its reputation of being the most unsafe city in India. Delhi takes the top slot for crimes ranging from murders and rapes to dowry deaths and abductions. It reflects country's law and order situation when its capital is a cauldron of crime. Instead...

...CONTEXT OF INTER-PROESSIONAL WORKING. The aim of this assignment is to discuss the role of the nurse in the context of the inter-professional team. Discharge planning will be discussed and analysed incorporating relevant knowledge such as teamwork and role enhancement. Relevant social, economic and health policies such as clinical governance will be discussed. Perspectives of each of the principle professional groups including myself as a third year student nurse, will be incorporated and collaborative team working addressed. The Department of health (2002) describes discharge planning as a pathway used to decide patient needs, for a smooth move from one level of care to another (Hunt 1996) and is the process through which patient’s needs are identified and plans are written, facilitating continuity of health care (Jackson 1994). According to the department of health (2000) discharge planning illustrates well, the role of the nurse within the inter-professional team the balance between goals set, care delivered and evaluation of care from a nurse and team perspective. Nurse involvement is considered integral and, aims to provide effective discharge plans (Department of Health 2000). The Royal College of Nursing (RCN 2002) supports the concept of nurses taking the lead and recommends the development of nurse led protocols in discharge planning. However the NMC (2004) highlights the importance of nurses being able to integrate within the team, seeking advice and sharing knowledge...
