Just by looking at the images from the Spirit of Health study there is an obvious difference. On one set of cells the size and shape completely changed. Twenty minutes after the cell phone call was made the cells clumped together becoming two to three times bigger than the original. One reason the cells could be clumping together is because of lack of oxygen and death of the cells. The proximity of the cells to the mobile phone could by one reason the cells are dying but in children the radiation would travel much further theoretical killing many more cells. In a study conducted by Nora Volkow, the Head of National Institute on Drug Abuse, a PET scanner was used to look at the brain activity while having a phone next to a subject’s head. The study …show more content…
Again, as with all the other instances the effect would only be greater on children due to their thinner skull and less effective blood brain barrier. In examining the image from the Penn State study the tail of a DNA strand will be measured, this tail is the breakage of the DNA due to radiation. The area of the breakage in the DNA from the x-ray is less than double the size of that from mobile phone radiation, which is significant since, per many allegations, the radiation is supposed to have no effect on cells. The overall area of the unexposed DNA has decreased by over 50\% which means that much of the sample has been damaged and has broken off. When using MATLAB image segmentation function an even more obvious difference is shown. Image segmentation breaks the image down into small parts making even minute differences more obvious. Figure 1 shows the difference between the unexposed DNA on the top and the Figure 2 shows DNA exposed to 2 hours of 2.45 Ghz of microwaves. The tail of the DNA is the breakage of the covenant bonds in the DNA, this could possibly lead to sporadic
Poor working conditions is where a member of staff is working in a condition which is unacceptable to work in such as mould on the walls which could cause the service users to become ill another example could be if the rooms were cold, the service users could become severely ill causing pneumonia or death.
A. There are many potential barriers to communication such as language barriers, it can be hard to communicate with someone who does not understand your language or vice versa. Also cultural differences may be a problem as different communication aids such as touching, eye contact, or tone, which may be acceptable in one culture may not be
Your GP can assess whether you have incontinence, decide which type of incontinence you have, give general advice on controlling symptoms of incontinence, provide information on pelvic floor exercises and bladder retraining, and give treatment for incontinence with prescribed medicines. If lifestyle changes and treatments don't solve the problem, your GP can refer you to a continence adviser or specialist.
This city of Port Orange is located in Central Florida, in Volusia County. Dr Milton Hawks arrived during what was actually the second wave of settlers to explore what is now known as Port Orange. He is also credited with giving the settlement its name. It was incorporated April 26th of 1867. As of the U.S. census there were 56,048 residents of the growing city. The city’s total area is 28.7 square miles, of which 2.0 sq miles are made up of water and 26.6 sq miles are land. Port Orange is a beautiful city on the East Coast of Florida, home of the World’s most famous beach. With average temperatures in the 80-90s in the summer, many Port Orange residents enjoy the
Quality of life is how satisfied we are with our lives and whether there are parts of our health that affect this or inhibit this. For example if there was a lack of money in a family due to little financial support then their quality of life would not be good. This is because they would not be able to afford the necessities of life and other recreational activities.
Obesity was significantly more prevalent amongst female African Americans in this community. With the highest rate affecting women between the ages of 45 to 64. Obesity was also higher amongst Black females who’s educational attainment was lower
Over the year both positive and negative influences have influenced my learning. The skill I have developed for learning is my aspiration is to become a midwife, this influences my learning in the way that it gives me the hunger to learn new things and improve my knowledge and grades. By improving my knowledge I will be able to go onto the next stage of my development. I believe that if I did not have such a desire to be a midwife, it would affect my learning by creating a mental blockage which would stop my ability to take things in and learn as I would become lazy and not interested from the lack of direction in my life. As soon as I realised what I wanted to do as a career, it really highlighted my priorities and I found that I have
Health is dynamic and determined by the determinants of health that have factors that can both benefit and hinder our overall health (Liamputtong, Fanany, & Verrinder, 2012, p. 9). The primary health care (PHC) principles accessibility, inter-sectorial collaboration, appropriate technology, emphasis on health promotion and public participation helps all individuals at different social standings based on income levels and geographical location determined by the social determinants of health to access PHC and make an equitable health care system (McMurray & Clendon, 2011, pp. 36-44; Liamputtong, Fanany, & Verrinder, 2012, pp. 13-14).
P1 – Explain potential hazards and the harm that may arise from each in a health and social care setting.
This paper received all 4s on the grading rubric. I mention this so you can eval the paper appropriately. I hope it helps.
Honesty is something I value in another person, and I have struggled with service users who haven’t been honest about something. I have tried hard to understand the reasons why someone would not be honest with me. Usually after I have spoken to another member of staff, and heard their input and theories I can begin to see why and move on from the incident.

“Health is defined as a state of physical, mental and social well being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity” (WHO). Like wise health promotion is the process of increasing the functional capacity of all people hence promote the sense of well-being. In order to accomplish this goal all health care professionals have to work hard by submitting themselves to their patients and community as a whole. Thus globalize health promotion should be the ultimate mission for all health care team, especially for nurses. Nurses are the first level health care team therefore nurses should play as a role model to all human beings. They should hold various positions in order to achieve optimum results. In this evolving health industry
What makes a healthy person? Surely it is more than just exercising and eating right. When we say healthy aren't we referring to more than just being physically fit and not having any diseases or ailments. But what else is there that makes a person truly healthy? I think that while this physical description of healthy is a good start, there is far more to the story than this. For one to be considered truly healthy I believe that every aspect of their life must be looked at and addressed with the intention of making that person the best person that they can be.
“Culture and care together are predicted to be powerful theoretical constructs essential to human health, wellbeing, and survival. In depth knowledge of the specific culture care values, beliefs, and lifeways of human beings within life’s experiences is held as important to unlock a wealth of new knowledge for nursing and health practices”( Leininger, 2008) . My friend said white culture, beliefs, values and lifeways includes:- independence, work oriented, doesn’t want any governmental interference, would like to take care of their own, don’t want to admit they need help- they have a strong sense of pride, respecting seniors and not sharing things among family members, wanting easy life. Knowing about her culture and values she doesn’t like nurses and any other people to tell her what is good and bad for her. She wants to take her own decision. Good care for her is the conventional method, like going to the physician listening to them and following their advice unlike Hispanic culture, she added. On answering the spiritual question she stated she doesn’t has much to say about it. They don’t have any rituals, just a prayers and going to church. She said she is highly dependent in technology like Laptop, I-pad and I-phone are her gadgets that she can’t live without it as she relies in it a lot. For e.g. she uses pedometer apps to count how many steps she walks each day. In the hospital she thinks Electronic Medical Service, Medi-tech are the high tech modern appliances to
