I recently experienced working with a family case manager that would continuously engage in one-way communication with me and the rest of the team working on a particular case. The client had several mental health issues that were not being addressed which caused her to be an extremely difficult client to work with, especially in the beginning. It was not unusual for her to verbally abuse individuals on the team including the family case manager. A large part of these behaviors stemmed from the client’s lack of ability to accept accountability as her children were removed because of domestic violence. As I worked with the client after approximately four months I was able to build rapport with her that others were not able to. I conducted her

Staff injuries that include lower back discomfort and MSD’s are considered of the most common amongst healthcare professionals (Liebert, 2007). Recent articles reflect that a staggering seventy percent of staff injuries are related to direct manual patient handling and transfers (Liebert, 2007).

The ANA endorses legislation that requires healthcare facilities to implement the use of patient handling assistive equipment. Through this initiative, the ANA hopes to ease some of the nursing shortage issues that are compounded by work-related injuries.
In the United States, health care price information is rarely made available to the health care consumer when they receive the service. Patients are usually become aware of the costs when they receive the bill. The price health care can vary radically by health care provider. Furthermore, prices can even vary by payer for the same provider. According to one study, consumers paid 10 to 17 percent less when they were given access to comparative price data. This tended to work best for consumers who had to pay for at least a portion of their care out of pocket. According to a paper that was published in the American Economic Journal: Economic Policy, when patients had access to price data and were willing to shop around, they could be paying significantly less for everything from routine screenings to knee surgery \cite{www-google-transparent}. This tended to work best for consumers who had to pay for at least some portion of their own care.

This study made me more aware of the interactions and activities used in the classroom. In order to narrow down the investigation, the following three research questions were formulated:
