In order to promote positive behaviour a care setting or organisation should follow legislation made by government such as the Human Rights Act 1998, codes of practise and relevant policies set out by the trust or service. It is important to read and understand theses legislations and policies and then apply them to working practise. We receive mandatory training that reinforces the trusts policies and keeps us informed of any changes to be aware of. Best practise tells us that if we keep good notes and share information with colleagues correctly then we will be able to help and support patients correctly and encourage positive behaviour.…
In his book, People Care, Thom Dick shows us that while it is imperative to know and perform all the medical procedures well, it is also important to treat patients with kindness and respect. He points out that most people don’t remember much about medical procedures performed, but they do remember how they were treated. Also, he demonstrates that how patients are treated plays a big role in whether or not they decide to pursue malpractice litigation against healthcare providers. If patients are handled with gentleness and respect, they are more likely to forgive mistakes.…

Healthcare is a diverse field with many specialties, but a commonality in all aspects is provider’s ethics. Ethics means following the standards and guidelines set by institutions as it relates to job duties, professional behavior, and patients. The decisions made by healthcare professionals, be it physicians, nurses or medical staff, affect real people and may mean the difference between life and death. The health and welfare of patients, along with the very serious aspect of treatment facilitation, requires that ethical standards be followed every step of the way for the health care professional.…
Ms. Taylor, lives by this quote “You’ve got what it takes but its going to take all you’ve got (V.Taylor, personal communication, September 26, 2017). She is currently working toward her doctored which will lead her to future endeavors. She has shown me what it truly means to work in Trio program. Even though her background in education is not higher education with a student affairs interest she is a perfect example of the type of student affairs practitioner I see myself being one day. The Trio Student Support Services professionals are humble and so welcoming. I believe other areas of student affairs should take notes from them on how to treat students.…

As students works towards their Ph.D., they are often reminded of the things that are expected from them as they enter the workforce. One expectation that the future physicians in the United States of America are to know, is the Principles of Medical Ethics, a list of ethics adopted by the American Medical Association in June of 1957 and most recently revised in June 2001. In addition to the ethics adopted by the American Medical Association, an upcoming physician should also be aware of the World Medical Association Code of Medical Ethics. Combining both codes of ethics results in an honest and moral physician, whereas breaking the law results in serious consequences.…
As a reluctant and nervous nineteen-year-old, I walked in to my first day as a nurse aid to a brightly lit, and mostly bubble gum pink Women’s Service’s unit. I worked there through nursing school; and happily accepted a job as a nurse after graduating. Nine years, and a lot of joy, tears, and learning in between, I continue to call this place my home. There is much satisfaction in being part of the continuum of care of women and families during the antepartum, labor and delivery, and the postpartum period, as well as the care of her newborn baby, and for some women, before and after gynecological surgeries. This mostly happy area of practice is not immune to tragedy, and the to have ability to be with a family and counsel them in their…
