One of the 4 Pillar of NHS is Scholarship. I define Scholarship as a commitment to learn from what you are doing regardless of the outcome and spend the necessary time needed . I can apply this to my own life; When I first started to work on my Patent for my invention, I had a lot of knowledge I had to gain in order to write and file a proper patent, this took a lot of hard work and time. After I was familiar with the patent process, I started to write drafts for my patent. After each draft was finished, I would send it out to my mentor. After looking at my patent he would always send it back saying things needed to be fixed. This process of rewriting, editing, and reviewing took over 5 months to do and I wrote a total of 15 drafts before I

The National Health Service was founded on the 5th July 1948. Winston Churchill was the prime minister at the time .The government decided to commission a report, addressing the ways in which Britain should be rebuilt after the Second World War had ended. The Beveridge report of 1942 (written by William Beveridge) identified five main points that needed to be addressed. These were Want (addressed poverty) disease (the lack of healthcare) ignorance (no education) squalor (represented the lack of housing) and idleness (unemployment). A Lot of politicians were confident that Winston Churchill would lead the conservatives to success in the general election. However this was not the case, clement Attlee of the labour party introduced all the
The four pillars of NHS are Scholarship, Leadership, Service, and Character. My personal view of them has left me believing that having a decent grasp of the pillars makes for a well-developed individual. Scholarship relates to how someone performs in their education and how they pursue it. Having good leadership skills means you are to step up and lead by example. Someone who is an excellent leader is able to admit their short fallings and works to remedy them. Service relates to how someone gives back to their community. This can be done
NHS is an organization made up of students who regularly demonstrate the four pillars of NHS: Character, Leadership, Scholarship, and Service. Saydel’s chapter of NHS should model outstanding service and leadership within our school and community. Doing so will create a positive environment amongst our community members and students. Utilizing my strong leadership abilities, I believe I can help our chapter of NHS flourish. My strength in organization, self-determination, and ability to engage others will make me a great asset to our NHS
In order for a hospital to be eligible for reimbursement through Medicare, they have to show that they are compliant by way of the Conditions of Participation. One way to show this is by getting an accreditation through The Joint Commission who meets the Medicare Condition of Participation standards. (La Tour, 2013).
Health is increasingly becoming a key consideration for sustainability as it becomes more integrated into the concept. A sustainable lifestyle can enhance your physical and mental well-being through a range of different activities. The NHS supports this link between sustainability and health, which is why they hold an annual NHS Sustainability Day of Action, to engage staff, patients and the public on sustainable living. This day of action was supported in our region by The Norfolk and Norwich University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

This simple image depicts the direction not only the NHS is heading, but the entire world. This direction is toward a more technologically advanced future, with increased efficiency and reliability throughout. The NHS is one of the largest organisations in the UK and boasts the highest employment rate of people within the IT sector. This leads to the question of what these IT personnel are doing and what technology they are bringing to the NHS to improve productivity. It is evident through campaigns such as the one in the previous image that the NHS is attempting to modernise alongside technology but what technology is truly used isn’t largely public knowledge, this is where this report attempts to bridge the gap, allowing the public greater knowledge to the inner workings of the NHS. This report also allows for the NHS to understand what technologies are working well within the organisation alongside those which aren’t working so well, so they are able to work with this for future improvements.
This assignment will discuss the core values that underpin social and health service delivery and will compare the current health service provision with health care services at the inception of the NHS. The NHS has seven core values that aim to ensure that quality care is delivered to everyone regardless of their gender, religion, race, age, wealth or sexual orientation. These values have been developed by the general public, patients and staff, with local authorities having to develop and adapt these to provide personalised care. These values not only underpin the social and health delivery service, but also influence the legislation regarding care. For example the Care Act 2014 looks at integrating care, involving the patient and carer
It is a valued opportunity to be nominated for the National Honor Society here at Marblehead High School. It assists in motivating me to continue striving to be the best that I can be. I believe that I would contribute to and benefit from being a member of NHS. Being a leader and taking on responsibility is something that I enjoy very much and being surrounded by a group of people who feel the same way would allow us to make each other better.
My involvement in NHS has taught me how to work hard and stay dedicated. I have been in charge of several committees through NHS, including Pennies for Patients, ShoeBox Recycling, and a blood drive, which required numerous hours of commitment in

Lifestyle choices such as smoking, drinking alcohol, poor diet and lack of physical exercise have many diseases associated with them. In 2006-07, patients with these diseases cost the NHS a combined total of £18.4bn (Scarborough et al. 2011). If the NHS limited treatment to these groups of people, it would be able to invest this money into other areas of need. This could lead to improved facilities for people who become ill through no fault of their own.
