371) (Kitson, Athlin, & Conroy, 2014, p. 333, 336) (Walsh & Kowanko, 2002, p. 149). Communicating with the patient, decreasing their anxiety, encouraging the patient to take control of their health, which allows the nurse, to give patient centred care (Kitson et al., 2014, p. 333) (Walsh & Kowanko, 2002, p. 143, 149). Admittedly, this considerate attitude, does not always happen (Walsh & Kowanko, 2002, p.

Breast cancer is overwhelmingly common. In fact, in 2013, there were an estimated 3,053,450 women living with female breast cancer in the united states (Howlader et al., 2013). This disease has such an immense impact on the lives that it touches. Therefore, it should be taken seriously and preventions should not be neglected. The purpose for this paper is to explore my health behavior change in regards to breast cancer prevention, while utilizing my support system. I will also apply the nursing process throughout my discussion about the behavior change.

Nursing practice has been able to make a large impact on health promotion for the patient. Nurses are involved in many facets of continued health promotion such as; triage

The case being heard today is about the government surveillance of Muslims in New York city and New Jersey. In 2012, the Associated Press, published a series of stories that revealed the existence of a secret surveillance program implemented by the New York City Police Department, also known as the NYPD. The purpose of this program was to surveill and monitor the Muslim American communities in New York and New Jersey since the year 2002. According to the Associated Press, surveillance of these Muslim Communities took place in a variety of settings including: Muslim-owned businesses, muslim college organizations, and mosques to name a few. In the Associated Press’s coverage of this program, they divulged document after document acknowledging the existence of its program as well as its purpose of the program; however, the leaked documents by the Associated Press were unredacted. This alerted the general public to names of various individuals as well as organizations and business that were being surveilled by the NYPD.

Nurses play an important role in promoting health within the patient, family, and community (Kemppainen, Tassavainen, & Turunen, 2012). The focus of patient care has been transferred from treating the illness to disease prevention (Mchugh, Robinson, & Chesters, 2010). The implementation of consultation, education, and follow up exams can increase the overall quality of life for an individual (Kemppainen et al., 2012). I will discuss the various roles of a nurse in health promotion along with the multiple work environments in which they can be implemented within. I will also reveal the maintenance plan of my own personal health regimen.

The current problem of national securityand domestic surveillance started after 9/11. Shortly after the attack, the Patriot Act was signedinto law. The act expanded upon surveillance laws and allowed government agencies monitorphone and internet communications of citizens, without a warrant. The obvious question thatcomes from any terror attack is how many of our civil liberties are we willing to sacrifice toprotect national security. In a 2010 poll, 47% of respondents said they were more concerned thatgovernment policies

Lymphedema is a chronic condition that has a lifelong effect on cancer survivors’ quality of life. Many previous studies reported that increase of lymphedema was associated with decrease quality of life, particularly, physical functioning such as functioning in domestic environment in the long period of time [20, 21, 22]. A previous study by Kwan, Jackson, Weir, Dingee, McGregor, and Olivotto [23] showed that patients with lymphedema report an impaired quality of life, as compared to survivors without lymphedema. Additionally, lymphedema exacts tremendous physical, psychological, social, spiritual, and emotional cost on breast cancer survivors experiencing it [24, 25]. Although swelling or edema within the tissue is not in itself painful, the stretching of nerve fibers

Privacy used to be the norm and surveillance was a conspiracy theory. In the past if you wanted to keep your life private then if somebody asked something a little too personal you could say "it's none of you business."

I'll start with how I came to make my video response, to begin with I thought of creating a crude cartoon style comic to show modern day surveillance using a camera eye to follow a character as they wandered around doing everyday tasks however as I reread the question it seemed the task was to reuse the given images to create something new, instead of scrapping the whole idea completely I decided to find as many images that would simulate what I was going for that is the idea that data is collected on us without our control or full knowledge and allow the watcher to question this at the halfway point.

Another theory that will guide this program is the Social Cognitive Theory which assess whether the participants have the knowledge and skills that will enable them to perform the monthly self-breast exams, the inclination to know when to seek medical care, and the ability to get to their appointments. What they expect to receive from the breast cancer screening and their feelings about what their family and friends think about the screening process and breast cancer will be explored. The focus of the program is to empower the participants so that they will take ownership in the decision-making process. The program will take a look at the environmental and personal behavior risk factors and try to help the participant to make better choices

Improve communication with physicians by encouraging ED staff nurses to speak their minds or share their ideas.

In today’s online world, it is almost impossible to remain anonymous. With every website and service requiring a log in which stores personal information, and surveillance users are unaware is even there. Although this sounds like an invasion of personal privacy and loss of personal liberty, it has turned into the “norm” and most of the time goes on without even being questioned. In some cases, consensual surveillance has been turned into forms of entertainment. The average person online is very aware of the surveillance taking place, but it is likely they are unaware of the severity of the surveillance and the justification behind it. It is known that the main use of surveillance is to keep citizens safe and free from terrorist attacks

Workplace surveillance has become a controversial issue in the workplace environment. The technological surveillance has developed as a necessity, it doesn’t only help in monitoring what the workers’ do, but it also helps to know how they do it. The modern technological development may have helped the employers’ to have an aerial view of the workplace environment, but it has created a controversy between the employees’ and the employer about the employees’ right to privacy being violated. The employees’ believe the act of workplace surveillance to be hateful that violates their right to privacy and liberties. The surveillance at the workplace often effects workers mental health, productivity, future success in their work and their relationship with the employer, despite being a necessity for the employers’ to protect themselves against the liability, many employers’ in the process of achieving efficiency through surveillance mistakenly ruin their relationship with their employees. The workplace surveillance is helpful in improving the performance of workers or it is contributing towards degrading the performance of workers and their work relationships.

Historically, nurses focused on the diagnosis and treatment of a disease, sickness or condition and emphasis on health promotion was nonexistent. However, today that has all changed. Nurses are now expected to expand their primary care services to include psychosocial nursing, advocacy, behavioral science, counseling and advocacy in addition to patient assessment, clinical diagnosis and patient-case management. In the article “Defining Nurse Practitioner Scope of Practice: Expanding Primary Care Services,” Sherwood, Brown, and Wardell (1997) state “the role of the nurse practitioner continues to evolve in response to changing societal and health care needs as consumers in all settings seek increasing services”. (Sherwood, Brown and Wardell, 1997).
