007-3.2 Explain the potential impact of an out break of infection on the individual and the organisation. Impact on the organisation: There would be potentially huge cost implications on an organisation with regards to staff sickness levels rising, causing the need to employ more staff which they will be paying to cover in addition to staff that are off sick ,and patients needing hospitalisation. Patients may require to have longer stays in hospital causing a shortage of beds for other patients. Hospitals, units and wards could all face closure short term or long term. The organisation could also be fined by not complying with the law which would have a negative effect with exposure in the media.
It is founded in God, Who did not only create the Ten Commandments, but He is the standard and the law. God allowed sin to come into the world. He did not create it, yet He created the possibility of it. God cannot sin nor even be tempted by sin. He is so holy, just, and full of grace that He had to send His Son, Jesus Christ, to die for these sins and humans’ depraved condition.
Those against it, believe life is given by God, and he decides when to end it. All Christian Variants are opposed to Euthanasia, as they believe the direct and voluntary killing of human life is wrong. They believe Euthanasia violates the fact that humans are created in Gods image (imagio dei) and only God is able to end someones life. No Christian has the right to terminate life, "for everything there is a reason....a time to be born, and a time to die"(Ecclesiastes
After watching the movie, write 1-2 paragraphs about patient rights issues, ethical issues, legal considerations and what are your feelings and thoughts about assisted suicide. I must admit, You Don’t Know Jack gave me a new perspective on the issue of physician-assisted suicide and I have become more understanding of Jack Kevorkian and his intentions. I used to view physician-assisted suicide as something absolutely morally, ethically and legally wrong because it is not within anyone’s right to end another individual’s life. God gave each one of us a life, and only God has the final say. Who was Kevorkian to act like a god?
Envision a life where you are drifting along in existence waiting for the inevitable, dejected in the eyes of your family, and becoming the epitome of a social pariah. As the end gets near, the thought of hastening the process become the most logical thing to do. The only solution is Euthanasia, also known as Physician Assistant Suicide when referring to humans; a term defined as, “the action of inducing a gentile and easy death” according to the Oxford English Dictionary. Yet, people cringe at its essence. Society is daunted when one request such fate but, the lands of America should learn to embrace its concepts as it is a humanity’s will to face trials and tribulations to achieve ultimate nirvana.
My theory also is that eventually people will start bidding on artificial organs and the richer people will have say over a family that doesn't have a lot of money. If doctors wanted to replace original organs with artificial ones, it would take a lot of perfecting and obligating a clean bill of health for the patient. Who, if anyone, should be a prime candidate for these types of artificial/synthetic replacements? Do you feel that anyone should have access to them? Even a life-long smoker or alcoholic who knowingly subjected themselves to harmful substances?
P2:Explain the different sociological approaches to health and ill health. As conceived by Talcott Parsons (1951), the functionalist perspective on health and medicine emphasizes that good health and effective medical care are essential for a society’s ability to function. Ill health obviously impairs our ability to perform our roles in society, and if too many people are unhealthy, society’s functioning and stability suffer. This was especially true for premature death, said Parsons, because it prevents individuals from fully carrying out all their social roles and thus represents a “poor return” to society for the various costs of pregnancy, birth, child care, and socialization of the individual who ends up dying early. Poor medical care is likewise dysfunctional for society, as people who are ill face greater difficulty in becoming healthy and people who are healthy are more likely to become ill. For a person to be considered legitimately sick, said Parsons, several expectations must be met.
This euthanasia idea can go so far as to being imposed on people who aren’t even in a comatose state. Who will be next in line to “relief him/herself from suffering?” Anne E. Weis quotes a Jesuit priest saying, “‘Legalized euthanasia would be a confession of despair in the medical profession…It would be the denial of hope for further progress against presently incurable maladies.’” If Helen was to be taken off life support, it would only enhance the ideas of euthanasia. And if Keaton wants to talk about money, what about all the money that going to be put into euthanasia practices? Are we going to spend money and time to find out the quickest way to kill yourself rather than using that money and time to find a cure? Would families be alright if they knew they allowed a mercy killing when it could have been
People who argue against physician suicide argue about the sanctity of life. There argument believes by legalizing physician assisted suicide there is likelihood for corruption, professional dishonesty, and efficient flaw. Those who oppose for holy reasons argue, our lives are given to us by a supreme being and others lives are not ours to take, but a donation from God and to destroy the gift God gave us is a sin and therefore immoral. However, a morally wrong act can be made morally right if the process used in deciding to perform it and the way it is performed are kindhearted and usefully
There is an increasing number of managed care organizations’ that are now emphasizing the physicians’ responsibility to oversee and control the patients access to further outside or special care needs. The reason for this is because the managed care organizations feel that hospital care and/or specialty care is too costly, and that only those who absolutely need further care should be the ones who receive it. Some feel that this method of care improves quality by necessity. They just may be right, especially when considering the skyrocketing healthcare costs along with the severe lack of healthcare coverage that is evident in the United States. The term "managed care" is used to describe a variety of techniques intended to reduce the cost of providing health benefits and improve the quality of care (Wikipedia, 2008).
