    Decades before the Civil War, even when the nation was but a few years old, slavery played quite a controversial role in the United States. While writing the Declaration of Independence, exclusions of all references made to slavery avoided conflict in an attempt to hold the fragile young nation together during the critical period leading up to its independence. However, the leaders of the country knew the subject would pop up again. Just a few short years later, as the country began to envision its future, the issue of slavery made another appearance. Many people, including free African-Americans such as Benjamin Banneker, argued against slavery. In his letter to Thomas Jefferson, Banneker argues in favor of abolition with respect and passion through his mastery of powerful diction, impassioned and reverent tone, and emotional appeal.…

    I notice in your response of clinical informatics being implemented on units that the inpatients are provided iPads to access for their medical records? To take part of their care? WOW! That seems bizarre to me. It seems like it would be asking for trouble. Wouldn’t you agree? Antoinetta, I can’t help to imagine the patient laying in bed, board, obviously not a real sick patient, asking a multitude of questions, for example, “what does this word mean”, “what does that lab result represent”, “why is that”, “what is this” . I know the patient is entitled to asking those questions, but I just feel that that would be the wrong time to provide them what that level of access when they need to be healing. We, the nurse,…

    Jerome Murdough, a fifty-six-year-old ex-Marine, was looking for a safe place to sleep in 2013, when he was arrested and charged with trespassing. He was fined over two thousand dollars and, due to his insufficient funds, was sent to Rikers Island—where he met his end. Murdough was in the suicide watch section of the prison due to a history of mental illnesses and was supposed to be periodically checked every fifteen minutes. Autopsies show that he likely died of heatstroke or severe dehydration, which conveys that he was not checked according to protocol (Pearson 1). Jerome Murdough’s death provides dismal insight into the future of the homeless if we continue to make their life-sustaining actions, such as finding a safe place to sleep, illegal…
