The second Texas institution opened by the Daughters of Charity was in El Paso, a “frontier town” of only a few thousand residents, when three Daughters of Charity arrived on February 3, 1892. The day the history of nursing in El Paso will always look back to.(TSHAonline.org) These ladies saw a vision to care for the sick that could not be cared for in El Paso. The Charity created the first emergence center to go too, and formed our medical programs and helped lay a foundation to grow on. With the help of the citizens of El Paso the Daughters of Charity opened up “Hotel Dieu” the oldest and most renown hotel. Due to its central location, it was named after a hospital in Paris and built El Paso’s name for their great nursing program. After closing their doors in December 5, 1987, Hotel Dieu, passed down its views on medicine to UTEP. It allowed the university to uphold the reputation for having one of the best nursing programs in Texas. From 1892 until 2016, the school of nursing has adapted to the changes in technologies and surgeries advancing in the field of medicine,therefore impacting all El Pasoans lives who need medical attention.

Practitioners with a lack of formal education did medical care in the 17th century. Many women and laypeople in that time had lots of expertise in herbal medicines and folk antidotes to cure colonists. The first curer people would turn to if they were sick would be a neighbor or a family member. However, there was a new type of physician in the 18th century. This was usually a young man from a wealthy family who went to an elite university who didn 't see himself as a doctor, but more as a scientist. The new physicians learned anatomy through dissection, assisted researchers, and helped with medical experiments. They also observed surgical procedures, and sat through lectures about new advances in the department of medical science. Alongside the scientists, there were also surgeons. The military was where many surgeons

The reason and quantity of the medications that were found in patients’ bodies were unquestionably incorrect with the justification by Dr. Pou that she was simply trying to reduce their physical suffering and relieve their anxiety. In this case, Dr. Pou’s situation was considered malpractice, because people argued that there were other ways to help these patients. Rodney Scott, one of the last patients to leave the hospital stated, “How can you say euthanasia is better than evacuation?..If they had vital signs, then get ‘em out. Let God make that decision,” (Fink, 28). It is anticipated that nurses will experience challenging working conditions, including an environment of fear, and too much responsibilities or things to focus on. To prevent faster burnout and secondary trauma, nurses will need sufficient rest periods, emotional support especially from the hospital facilities and

In the essay “The Embalming of Mr. Jones,” (1963), Jessica Mitford is describing a procedure of embalming of a corpse. She writes that people pay a ton of money each year, but “not one in ten thousand has any idea of what actually takes place,” and it is extremely hard to find books and any information about this subject. She assumes that it must be a reason for such secrecy, and may be if people knew more about this procedure, they would not want this service after their death.

In a time when the first shots of the American Revolution was starting in Lexington and Concord in 1775, and the Revolution of 1800 which ended the Federalist Party’s control of American politics. It is in this context, that the desire for change ignited with the use of violence in the new nation. Two significant changes in violent protest in America from 1763 to 1791 were the results that ensued from the wealthy elite fearing the common people, and the enemy that the common people attacked.

On the night of May 1st, some of the students went downtown to bars for some drinks. One too many drinks later, people were out drunk on the streets throwing beer cans at police cars and vandalizing public property. When the police were called, there were already more than one hundred people at the scene throwing whatever they could get their hands on. Mayor LeRoy Satrom and Governor Jim Rhodes declared a state of emergency and ordered all of the bars to close down so people could not get any more alcohol. Police had no control over the protesters so they started to spray tear gas, which calmed them down, until the next day. May 2nd and May 3rd were filled with the police trying to settle down hundreds of activists, but it all led up to the final day. On May 4th, over a thousand people gathered at the campus revolting together. Upon the arrival of the National Guard, the crowd was too much to handle so they started to fire aimlessly in the air. Students Allison Krause, William Schroeder, Jeffery Miller, and Sandra Scheuer lost their lives and nine were

One of the places many don’t expect violence to take place is in the hospital. Hospitals are designed to promote safety and provide medical care and nursing treatment for sick or injured people. Unfortunately, on January 12, 2016 a hospital security guard and a police officer endured near-fatal shootings by a drug-affected patient in Nepal. Rachel Olding, the author of an article written February 4, 2016 points out some concerns, thoughts, and ideas for improvement taken from hospital workers who have seen and experienced hospital violence firsthand. Hospitals need to be a place of safety for their patients, staff, and visitors.

The Johns Hopkins Hospital, located in Baltimore, MD, is one of the greatest institutions in modern medicine. Established in 1889 from the donation of philanthropist Johns Hopkins, the hospital and university serve millions of patients annually for emergency, inpatient, and outpatient visits. Patient care is the focus of Johns Hopkins vision. The hospital uses quality care and innovation to enhance patient care. It is the hospital’s goal to have great precision, safety, comfort, coordination, and improved workflow to achieve an outstanding customer experience. An added feature to the customer experience are the design elements that can be found flowing throughout their newest facilities which helps foster healing and stress free environments. From the dramatic art collections that fill the walls and windows of patients rooms, to its 20-year reign as U.S. News and World Report’s “Best Hospital”, Johns Hopkins has made its mark on society. At some point, however, every great dynasty loses its ranks. Unfortunately, Johns Hopkins is no different. With the creation of a federally-mandated patient satisfaction survey for Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement, the stakes for high ratings is of fiscal importance. In an effort to increase its patient satisfaction ratings, the hospital created performance measurements to highlight strengths and areas of improvement with patient outcomes. The implementation of this new initiative, the Patient Toolbox, considers the fundamental reasons

The first hospitals were used by physicians in the ninth century Middle East. At this point, physicians were very well able to diagnose, prescribe medicine, and perform surgery in a much safer way than the past. “…at this
