Physical abuse This is when a child is being physically abused this could include hitting, smacking, punching, kicking or include objects being thrown at them. This causes pain to them and leaves marks- this type of abuse can even lead to death The signs and symptoms of abuse include- -marks on the body -refusal to undress -running away from home -fear of physical contact -distressed -not wanting to do any medical examination Some marks you see on children can be just genuine injuries as children are always bound to have accidents. However this does not mean that we can’t keep an eye on them. In my setting if a child has a mark on their body whether it being suspicious or not we ask the parent what they did- most parents tell you before you ask and the majority of the time you are like yes okay that fine sometimes you may thing that they are not telling you the truth. If we have a child having repeat marks on their body or suspicious marks then we body map this and store it.
When the EAB is in its larva form, it is also the most damaging. The tiny larva tunnel underneath the bark of the tree this causes snake like tunnels. This tunneling leads to many serious problems for the ash tree. First, and most superficial, the tunneling becomes visible and splits the bark of the tree. The next problem is most detrimental.
These identify problems for walkers with heels, disabled sticks and even dogs’ paws, possibly getting caught within the gaps of the grate. It could be argued that this would allow for the surface water to run away. It could be further argued that this may allow for the drains to get blocked with rubbish or debris from the trees, this creates losers for the local council having to send an engineer to unblock the drain, thus draining the parish funds, not to mention the pedestrians walking through the muddy waters along the High Street. The paved areas in City Road has bollards dotted along which create a safer passage for pedestrians creating winners here but highlighting the lack of safety for the High Street. The contrast between these two streets is evident where City Road is a main road with a high volume of traffic compared to the High Street which has the bypass to reduce noise, pollution and
Reflective Account for Health and Safety When I was in the playground I saw a box of toys at the edge of a shelf, I quickly went over and removed it from there because it was a hazard for the children passing by as it could’ve dropped down on them. When I go to P.E I make sure there is enough safety mats out for apparatus being used. I have not had to report any concerns about safety equipment but in P.E we have safety mats and if I feel they were damaged I would tell the teacher and also report to the caretaker who will dispose of it and replace it. I was helping year 2 make old treasure maps and to make the paper look old we used teabags to stain the paper, they also had a choice of making holes or scrunching the paper. I made
Mechanical or engine failure while riding with others or on a jumping track can be very hazardous as the rider and bike could become an obstacle for other riders or may jump short or long causing a fall and crash to the ground. In addition, dirt
Kevin Cromer SP3450T February 27, 2014 Unit 9 Assignment 3: The Bystander Intervention If I were walking in a busy city park and started having chest pains, I would collapse or lay down on the trail. By laying on the trail, people will obviously see me and that would get the attention of more than one person. If someone saw someone laying in the bushes demonstrating they are in danger, some people might think they are trying to deceive them and they may think that that person is actually trying to lure them into the bushes to attack them. By staying in the open that will give people more confidence to approach me and yell out for others to assist. I would show altruism by being in the obvious open.
The fact that children have places set aside to play can also tell of their experience. The playground is a space designed for children, and children alone. Within public spaces children are either seen as vunerable or a risk to society, and a playground is one of the few places they are seen to fit. <name> argues that children are like weeds, often seen as growing in the wrong places, and that while inherently play happens anywhere for a large part it is not welcome within adult society, and that ‘spartial probibitations and limitations dp seem to be particularly fundamental to childrens
If medicines are left lying about then elderly people who are confused may take the medicines. This could lead to serious consequences for example if they overdosed on a certain drug they could die or become very ill. So this doesn’t happen all medicines and drugs should be locked away and only staff has the key. If doors/gates are left unlocked elderly people who maybe suffer from dementia will be able to get out and wander the streets. This could cause them to get lost or maybe have an accident on the street such as walking into the road.
Without someone to look up to at an early age, children will have no sense of direction and will be influenced by outside sources such as television or their surrounding neighborhoods. Television can be potentially dangerous because of the amount of violence broadcast today and if the children are growing up in a hostile neighborhood they will grow up thinking everything around them is natural and
Oklahoma’s Baggage Have you ever really thought about how harmful some of the everyday things you do could be, potentially to the environment in a substantial way? Plastic bags are one of those problems we face in our world today. Most people bring plastic bags when coming back from a grocery store or a quick trip to the gas station. Most of these bags end up in the trash in one way or another after minimal use. These bags not only affect us humans in a negative way but also are a significant harm to many animal and our mother Earth.
