Communication between nurses at report change is essential. The next nurse needs the most important information whether it is as Situation-Background-Assessment-Recommendation (SBAR) that the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (n.d.) outlines to use or in another form. The case of Rio Grande Regional Hospital Inc v. Villarreal discusses how one nurse breached the standard of care because the record reflects that from the time Hermes was given the double-edged razor until he died neither Nurse Bergado nor any other nurse checked to see how Hermes was doing in the bathroom” (Find Law for Legal Professionals, 2016). At Baylor Scott & White at All Saints, we have a policy that each patient is rounded on physically every hour.

The lack of attention to the aesthetics of the facility not only created a depressive feel, but also created sanitation issues. Caroline described the staff often placing soiled linens and used bed pans out in the hall for hours without being attended to. For Caroline, this exacerbated the painfulness of this already emotional transition for her when she first arrived. And even though Caroline’s room was cleaned by the staff prior to moving in, it still presented as dirty and with a foul order. The food at the nursing home was unappealing and often leads to the decrease in appetite of most of the residents. In addition, the fact that Caroline was the only female client posed a threat to her development of a support system and created an uncomfortable environment.

In the health care system, a multitude of errors occurs on a daily basis. Doctors, nurses, orderly’s, etc., everyone in health care settings has responsibilities that warrant careful attention. This was exhibited in the case study titled ‘An Extended Stay’. In this case study, we are introduced to a middle-aged man in his 60s named Mr. Stanley Londborg. He presented with several health conditions, including a seizure disorder, hypertension (also known as high blood pressure), and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Londborg was no stranger to the hospital and was known fairly well by faculty members. Londborg paid a visit to the Emergency Room at the hospital complaining of wheezing and breathing complications.

The case of Miguel presents various challenges that should be addressed immediately and assessed accurately in ways that are culturally valid, effective, and in accordance with diagnosis criteria listed in the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health Disorders (DSM-5, 2013). Delamater & Hasday (2007) stated that various disciplines contribute to an understanding of human sexuality including biology, evolutionary psychology, psychology, anthropology, women’s studies, communications, family studies, and sociology.
