Analysis Of The Tent Colony Of Brotherly Love: Craig Hospital

Thirdly, some patients view be taken to a rehabilitation centre as a form of denial of liability by the family members. In most cases, these patients will feel like the family is abandoning them to a place that is meant for misfits. As result, many of these patients will undergo a state of denial to the point of hating themselves. It is very unlikely for this to happen if the patient is given care in the family home. In fact the patient is likely to feel loved and cared for by close by family members. Therefore, from this perspective it is definite that family homes are better than rehabilitation centres.

I was nervous at first because this was this was my first field work, and had just started the Therapeutic Recreational program. Nichole Cummins was aware of this and made me comfortable in my new venture at the St. Joseph’s Impatient Rehabilitation Unit. I discussed my goals with her before starting the field work. The unit is on the 4th floor of the main hospital. Files of patients are filed in a secure cabinet. My field work was 60 hours of experience. My goals were to learn about documentation, program planning, and activity modification.

The rehabilitation for people with traumatic brain injury is put into three different stages for medical care (Ross 40). These three stages are: inpatient, community integration, and lifetime of care. Each person’s rehabilitation process is different with the way they go through care.

The two major goals are relearning and compensation.

Bob and Nancy Cook moved to Bellevue in 1980 from Sidney, Iowa. Bob was a school principal and his wife Nancy was an English teacher. But all that changed in 1988 when Bob took a leap of faith and left the public education sector to start a new program in Omaha called Quality Living, Inc. Several families in the Omaha area were dealing with the issues of how to care for a child with a traumatic brain injury and were looking for an alternative to the traditional nursing home. They heard about a facility in northwest Iowa called Village West and decided to visit. Upon their return they set out to create a similar environment here in Omaha. Today, Quality Living is a one of the nation’s premier post-hospital centers for brain and spinal cord injury rehabilitation by embracing the concept that great rehabilitation is more than just the science of physical recovery – it is the art of rebuilding a life

The programing that is needed for this type of facility includes a Main Lobby, Main Reception, Main Waiting Area, Long Term Care, Outpatient, Rehab, Hospice Care, and a Restaurant. There will also be support for the family and the staff which will include an education experience, dedicated communal areas, counseling rooms, and spaces to distress in.

The health care system is complicated. There are many health care providers and services out there. Some of them are preventative care or public health; ambulatory or primary care; subacute or long-term care; acute care; auxiliary services; rehabilitative services; end-of-life care; mental health services; emergency management or disaster preparedness; dental services; military and veteran services; and Indian health services.

The two that are going to be discussed are rehabilitative services and mental health services. I will give a basic description of the provider or service and the products

A healing hospital is a healing community providing radical loving care (Journal of Sacred Work, 2009) in a safe environment that focuses on human interaction, interpersonal caring and enhancing the wellbeing of patients, caregivers, and all other members of the healing community. While a healing hospital is, of course, dedicated to providing excellent medical care to its patients (Mercy Gilbert Medical Center, 2012), it is also dedicated to integrating work design and technology (Mercy Gilbert Medical Center, 2012), and ultimately to the overall wellness of every healing community member. Using physical healing, education and supportive human interaction, this care model seeks healing on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels for everyone involved in the process (Zarren, n.d., pp. 1-2). The success of this model requires the cooperation of every
