During a team meeting, registered nurse Robin utilized aggressive communication towards assistant Rashad. Robin’s verbal response to Rashad was hurtful, derogatory, and belittling rather than encouraging and supportive. Robin’s comments appear to represent her belief that she is superior to Rashad; therefore, she will be the one making the decisions. Rashad demonstrated passive behavior. Because he feared losing his job, he did not defend his position with an explanation of his job description or scope of practice.
The therapy however does not promote the idea of allowing the woman to actually be in contact with the significant other that was the cause of the abuse because it is recognized that this may open the door for a repeat the past behavior; that start the cycle of abuse all over again. The biggest focus of the use of forgiveness therapy is to help the women who have been abused to not have feeling or resentment towards their former partner as well as diminishing the desire of the women to want to exact revenge. Coupled with other therapy techniques, the clinician will promote positive behaviors such fostering god will and promoting forgiveness; they do so by integrating the traumatic experience of the abuse with good moral choices that will negate the individual from repeating the abuse pattern or falling into bad behavior. Also the therapy helps to decrease and negate other behavior that often comes with abuse such as anxiety, depression as well as low self-esteem. Women who were subjects in the study on forgiveness therapy were separated from their romantic partner/spouse for at least two years.
Rather than succumbing to the habit of prejudging, resolve to keep an open mind when you listen to others to see if you can learn something from what the speaker has to say (Sole, 2011). Had Sarah not prejudged Hitch and his intentions and used effective listening skills, she might have actually heard what he was trying to say. Sarah might have understood that Hitch was merely trying to get women out of their comfort zone in order to give love a chance; because women are so guarded, they never let anyone into their personal space letting that special person slip away. If Sarah had only allowed Hitch to finish speaking, controlled her emotions during the conversation, and processed the message being given to her, a better understanding might have resolved the confusion. Sarah might have also taken the
This allows the results to be generalised. Weaknesses The hospital staff was deceived - this is, of course, unethical. Although Rosenhan did conceal the names of hospitals or staff and attempted to eliminate any clues which might lead to their identification. Rosenhan did note that the experiences of the pseudo-patients could have differed from that of real patients who did not have the comfort of knowing that the diagnosis was false. Perhaps Rosenhan was being too hard on psychiatric hospitals, especially when it is important for them to play safe in their diagnosis of abnormality because there is always an outcry when a patient is let out of psychiatric care and gets into trouble.
If Christine would have followed the schematics of team development stages, her issues with Mike not participating effectively could have been avoided. It was suggested that any issues be handled internally before going to the professor, but that wasn’t done. Christine allowed Mike to understate the importance of the assignment and possibly threaten everyone else’s grade by not fully being in support of his responsibilities, although she thought he was very
If the police officer chooses to continue to protect the abortion clinic, then they will be going against all moral and ethical judgement they previously went by. The officer will also oppose their support for anti-abortion clinics and may be seen as a “hypocrite” to others who believe in Pro-Life. On a positive note, however, they would not have to worry about getting fired and may eventually reach a promotion for their dedication and hard work. If the officer chooses the latter; a possibility of a
Ishmael Leseur turned the other cheek to being bullied by Barry Bagsley. He did this because he didn’t want to bring attention to himself or give Barry Bagsley anything to pick on him with. Ishmael also turned the other cheek during the awards night because he didn’t want to ruin the night for everyone and bring himself down to Barry Bagsley’s level. People need to feel good about themselves and not let the bullies win. After all bullies usually only pick on people they know they can make feel bad to make themselves feel good.
Maybe they don’t get enough attention at their house, or maybe they want friends but they can only show their mean side because they are actually scared of getting hurt themselves. Either way, no matter what the reasoning is, bullying is not okay. There was one girl, Sally, who I had got close with but then again we only talked in certain periods. Maybe it was because I was nice to her and partnered with her when no one else would, or maybe the simple fact I didn’t want her to feel left out that I was her friend. She never hurt me, or was mean to me, she just dressed different and wasn’t as fortunate as the rest of us.
The student nurse will reflect on health promotion issues as this stood out to me in several areas, The student nurse discovered that although we can nurse a patient back to health it is so important to make the patient aware of how necessary it is for them to participate in their care by adhering to what is recommended to them by various members of the Multidisciplinary Team and the devastating consequences that the patient can encounter if advice is ignored. The student nurse will use the Gibbs (1988) reflective cycle, this encouraged thinking systematically about all phases of an activity. Gibbs (1988) is descriptive with regards to feelings, evaluation, analysis, conclusions and action plans, therefore ideal for this assignment. Although I experienced many different aspects of care regarding health promotions this assignment will concentrate mainly on a single event that will stay with me throughout my nursing career. According to Scottish Government (2010) Healthcare Quality Strategy for NHS Scotland, nurse’s carers and people at the heart of the healthcare and care delivery services should improve conditions in NHS Scotland and the care provided, on reading this strategy I understand a nurses responsibility, but the importance of patient participation in their own care is invaluable and the cooperation and communication with the Multidisciplinary Team is essential to complete patient care package to the highest standard.
Even if it is meant in jest, violating this boundary can be hurtful (Lampert, L. (2011, April 30). First set healthy boundaries. Here are some way’s to set healthy boundaries talk, listen, and think. Talk about it to the person they may not even know what they are doing, by talking to the person you may be able to work something out if they are willing to work on it to. Listen to yourself as much as the other person for example your girlfriend does not like you kissing her ear and she asks you please to never do it.
