...changed in accordance to the NMC guidelines. The main professional issue reflected in this case study is the issue of consent. Consent, means to give permission for something to take place or to agree to do something (oxford dictionary 1998). This does not necessitate that, the actions approved have been developed or permission given in the knowledge of possible consequences known as informed consent has been achieved. This goes to show that, for medical purposes, although the patient has the right to refuse treatment, he has to also have the requisite mental capacity (Dimond 2008). This case study brings out a clash between Mr. A’s autonomy and the nurses professional duty of care. Clearly, it is essential for the nurses in charge of Mr. A to take all reasonable precautions to ensure that he has appropriate counselling and all the necessary information in making the decision to undertake his treatment (Dimond 2008). The...

...The law is a system of rules that a particular country or a community acknowledges and enforces, in addition to regulates the actions of its members though the imposition of penalties. Nursing is a profession full of legal issue. A person must give their permission prior to any type of medical treatment or examination by a medical professional (NHS, 2014). Nurses have to follow the nursing midwifery code, which states nurses should “make sure appropriate informed consent is given and documented before carrying out any action” (NMC,2015). Therefore, prior to any treatment given, the person must give consent for the nurse to carry out the treatment. In order for consent to be valid, it must be voluntary. The person must have come to the decision themselves, with no influence from medical staff, family or friends (Griffith et al, 2013). The consent must be informed, the person must have knowledge and understanding about the what the treatment involves, including risks and benefits or alternative treatments and what will happen if the patient does not have the treatment. For the consent to be valid the person must have mental capacity, meaning they are able to understand the information given and make an informed decision based on the information given to them. Consent can be written, however, signing a form is not valid consent. The person need to have the opportunity to gain knowledge about the treatment, as well as ask a medical professional, with the correct knowledge, any...

...Family Nursing Diagnoses NUR/405 Family Nursing Diagnoses Community Nursing The community health nurse has a primary role to assess the relationship of variables in the community with how they relate to patients and health. Cultural, religious, ethnic, and personal upbringings are variables that are considered to gain a basic understanding of the community framework. The purpose of this paper is to discuss three nursing diagnoses related to AL and his family living in a suburban community in Staten Island, New York. Interventions and outcomes will be expected for each diagnosis and will be integrated into the care plan and educational program specially designed for the chosen family. Family Assessment AL is a 65 year old man with an Italian ethnic background. He is a smoker who has been recently diagnosed with Type II Diabetes Mellitus, mild obesity, and a history of coronary artery disease with one stent last year. His physician stated he is borderline diabetic that could be managed through diet and lifestyle modifications, and could not advance if he is compliant with suggested regimens. He lives in a two-family residence with his wife, and his father who lives in the side apartment downstairs. He has two adult children who live within close range and visit several times a week. Jean Watson’s Theory of Human Caring When caring for a special population group within a community, the nurse must integrate clinical thought to assimilate specifically designed...

...If there is one thing that all Americans desire it is entertainment. Americans spent more than eight hours a day watching television (1). That’s two-hundred and forty days watching television a year (Taking into account time spent sleeping, eating, and other necessities). People spend about the same amount of time working in one month as they do watching television. Then there’s the time being spent on the internet. Although not as much as television the internet is quickly becoming just as time-consuming as television. On average Americans spent sixty-six hours on the internet a month (2), that’s thirty-three days spent on the internet. These statistics have risen consistently over the past five years on average of one-hundred million users a year (3). Time isn’t the only thing that Americans give up in order to fulfill their need for entertainment. The amount of money spent also contributes to the substantial amount of missing from many American’s pockets. In two-thousand and nine Americans spent almost ten billion dollars on movie tickets alone. That doesn’t even include dollars spent on D.V.D’s, which reached just under seventeen billion dollars, (This includes both D.V.D purchases and D.V.D Rentals) (4). Americans have an insatiable desire for entertainment that will grow until something dramatic changes the routine that we have become accustomed to over the past one-hundred years. Everything mentioned so far has been to given to show Americans need for entertainment....
