The overall goal of this project was to help me gain a better understanding of a car and car parts. I learned a lot about the car’s engine and the driver’s column. More specifically, I learned which lever on the wheel works the windshield wipers and how to jump start another car’s battery. Before this project, I knew that the windshield wiper control was on the driver’s column, but I was not sure which lever and how to properly control it. Now, I am able to turn the wipers on and off, spray the windshield with wiper fluid, and I can control the windshield wiper speed. Also, I now understand how jumping a battery works and how to do so. Beforehand, I had a basic knowledge, but now I able to jump a battery. I also changed my first tire. My dad
Assessing a community is an integral part of Community Health Nursing because it leads to an understanding of a community’s overall health status, including its strengths and weaknesses. In turn, the assessment findings can be used to influence positive change in the community and improve the population’s health. One strategy used to assess a population’s health needs is performing a windshield survey. A windshield survey is typically conducted from a moving vehicle and includes a systematic observation of the general community. This paper includes the findings of a windshield survey I completed of Heber, AZ as well as my overall impression of the survey, and personal biases that I need to consider.
The town I chose to do my windshield survey on was Jamestown, NC, 27282. I chose Jamestown because this is where I grew up and this is where my grandparents live. Performing this windshield survey will allow me to observe all the things the town of Jamestown have to offer and to see what barriers may exist for a community health nurse trying to work with the residents of Jamestown. In my opinion a windshield observation is one of the most important tasks that a community nurse has to perform since this will allow them to know what is available for their patients.
Services to the community are social services, Schools , post office, fire station , police station and businesses.
According to Stanhope and Lancaster, a windshield survey is a "community assessment, the motorized equivalent of a physical assessment for an individual; windshield refers to looking through the car windshield as a nurse in community health drives through the community collecting data.” (Stanhope & Lancaster, 2010, p. 217). These types of surveys are a form of information gathering means, making direct visual observations to assess the social environment of a community while driving, they can even be conducted on foot in the event that a vehicle is not available or possible. The reason of the windshield survey is to gain a better perceptive of the city social environment in terms of its boundaries, housing conditions,

As nurses we know medical professionals more than ever are responsible for treating large diverse populations. Understanding cultural differences in various populations is crucial to produce positive outcomes. Nurses have a major role in health care promotion. Nurses should be treating the patient as a whole in mind, body, and spirit. This should be included in community treatment too. Individual, family, environment, and community assessments are necessary to provide the care and improve health care outcomes in the community as a whole. The World Health Organization’ s (WHO) definition of community is “a group of

Even a small crack is significant because temperature changes can increase its size and its impact on your safety. Here are four hazards of a cracked windshield:
The car was finally assembled and ready to be tested. I pulled the spring back, hoping for the best. The spring released; the car traveled in a perfectly straight line for more than three meters. The test run had succeeded. When the cars were tested in class, my car managed to get approximately ten meters. Not only had the problem solving worked, it exceeded my expectations. When it came time for the written test on one-dimensional motion, I was better prepared for the questions due to my failure of the mousetrap car. Even though the failure of the mousetrap car at the time seemed like a disaster, it taught me more than I could have learned if it had worked the first time. From this experience, I gained several valuable lessons. The first lesson I learned is to always have a time cushion. If I did not begin the initial prototype early, I would not have had time to construct the model that worked. This lesson is applicable in all areas of life: deadlines for work, projects for school, and even family events. The second lesson that I learned from this is that problem solving is a crucial part of life. Not everything is going to go right in life, so my ability to

When learning how to drive, most teenagers have a few blunders along the way. However, not many could say they have failed as drastically as I have at one particular driving lesson. Learning how to backup revealed itself to be a true challenge for me. Backing down the driveway, I mistakenly did not see the weed-eater that my father had left out after some yard work, and ended up running over it. But from there the bad situation gets worse, panicking from just running over the weed-eater, I sped forward and ended up bumping into the full trash can. In less than one minute, I had managed to run over the weed-eater and then into the trash can, which then spilled its contents. From that series of unfortunate events, I managed to learns a few lessons,
The events and developments outlined above provide the backdrop to the recent legislative changes and provide a context for understanding the strength of the opposition to prostitution law reform. The last ten years have seen community fears being regularly challenged by attempts to debunk the mythology surrounding prostitution, with increasing numbers of books and articles profiling sex workers’ lives More recently, individual sex workers have begun penning their own accounts while the 15-year campaign for prostitution law reform saw a plethora of interview-based articles in glossy magazines (for example, “The Oldest Profession”, More, May 1987; “The Big Sleazy: How they Sell Sex in Auckland”, Metro, November 1988). Crimes involving sex workers
Common American experience seems to suggest that a solution to every dilemma can be found through enough lobbying, legislating, media-blitzing or politicking. We often believe that the person arguing most eloquently, reasonably or forcefully will win every dispute, yet there are times when this optimism fails. Despite great efforts to show the strength of a position, there are arguments that we cannot untangle simply by proving our right and another's wrong. Some moral questions permit such different outlooks that holders of completely opposing views can both be morally sound. Rather than trying to reason away one side we can only
