Power shifts

and nurses are given enough time to recuperate from prior shifts. The ANA has made recommendations for nurses and employers to combat this problem. Nurses are suggested to receive 7-9 hours of sleep in a conductive sleeping environment, take account commute to work prior to accepting a job offer, as well as alternative transportation to and from work such as taxi bus, car pooling. As for the employers, limit work weeks to 40 hours, work shifts to 12, and utilize predicable schedules so nurses plan accordingly

Night Shift Increase Patient Care Errors? A nurse’s role is to advocate for the patient, provide care to them and their families, to do no harm, to promote healthcare and to alleviate suffering (AMA, 2015). With this being said, does working the night shift increase patient care errors? The human body is regulated by the circadian rhythms that tell the body when to sleep and wake, so does this altered sleep pattern have a correlation with patient care errors?

______. In a study done, the mothers working schedule was evaluated in order to see if it was correlated with the child’s behavior. This study was mainly focused on low income mothers working a non-traditional schedule, the nightshift or graveyard shift.

The chirality of drugs has become important to understand in the field of medicine and pharmacology today. Asymmetric approaches have been under investigation to synthesize chiral centers or separate enantiomers of chiral molecules using chemical catalysts or enantioselective enzymes. With this is in mind, the experiment performed in lab today exhibits the use of an enzyme catalyzed reduction to fashion a chiral center. In this experiment, the enzymatic asymmetric reduction of 1-phenyl-1,2-propanedione

The alcohols 1-propanol and 2-pentanol were converted into alkyl halides through a certain series of steps. The first step was reflux, and the purpose of reflux is to add energy to the solution and not lose any solution to evaporation. This energy helps initiate the acid-catalyzed dehydration reaction and also promotes rearrangement. The next step was distillation, which functioned to separate liquids based on boiling points. The distillation utilizes boiling points to separate the alkyl halide products

I also did not know what kind of people I would be working with or what they would think of me. I was just happy to have a job after being laid off from my job as an accounting assistant in Long Beach, California
