Warren Ellis’s grim short story graphic novel Fell, Part 5, introduces us to an accused shooter Michael Connah, and a Detective Fell. The main story of Connah revolves around him being unable to find love and using hatred to destroy the lives of those he envies. The significance of the use of guns in Fell is substantial, carrying various key points in the story.

The necessity to reduce patient falls is the trigger in this circumstance. This is a knowledge- focused trigger since the purpose is to implement a practice that has been shown to prevent falls. The next step is establishing if the issue is a top priority for the clinic, division, or section. Patients should be a top priority in any acute care facility, as they can result in catastrophic injuries and even death (Cullen et al., 2022).
SAVAHCS “Fall Prevention Program” utilizes the interventions discussed in the literature review and includes a post fall assessment (PFA). Post fall huddles (PFHs) are discussed within the Fall Prevention Program, however, they are not consistently used. The PFA currently captures information discussed in the literature including intrinsic and extrinsic factors and includes the physical attributes of the patient, and extrinsic environmental factors. In a cyclic process, patients are assessed for fall risk. If a patient is found at risk, he/she is placed on the hospital’s

The project studied in this article used evidence-based practice TeamSTEPPS®, which stands for Team strategies and tools to enhance performance and patient safety. TeamSTEPPS® was used to improve teamwork and communication within the hospital setting. TeamSTEPPS® provided the nursing staff with a structured, yet simple way, to identify fall risk factors for each patient and patient-specific interventions. This project was guided by using the FOCUS-PDCA; find, organize, clarify, understand, select, plan, do, check, and act model. The FOCUS-PDCA methodology consists of nine steps that include “find a process to improve, organize a team, clarify current process, understand variations in the current process, select process improvement, plan

Problem Identification Getting out of bed is one of the dangerous things that the elderly patients do when they are admitted in the hospital. Study conducted by Ambrose, Paul & Hausdorff, (2013) on patient falls reveals that a majority of falls in the elderly patients occur between 0700 and 1900, especially when they are getting out of bed to use the rest room. The cause of their falls is mainly due to unsteady gait, memory loss, confusion that comes with age. Memory loss and vision problems which occurs during old age in the elderly patients puts them at risk for falls. Other factors that can lead to falls are; Presence of throw rugs, psychotropic medications, lack of Vitamin D, and weakness of the lower extremities.
I believe that two main issues in community college are closely related, and they are: bad college reputation and low retention rates. Low retention rates are a problem number one for most community colleges in the country. Graduation rate in community colleges is only about 18-20 %. (New York Times, 2015). Despite the increased focus on excellence that we see, community colleges are still struggling to graduate students.
At the end of practice, I check my weight again and I am still over by about three pounds. When I get home, I go up to my room and start putting multiple layers of clothes on. I put on three shirts, two pairs of shorts, a pair of pants, a sweatshirt and two pairs of socks. After I put on all of my layers, I go down to the basement and run on the treadmill so that I can sweat and lose weight. Once I have run on the treadmill, I go upstairs to check how much I weigh.

On average, life expectancy for a person living in the United States as of 2015 is 79 years; that’s 288,35 days to be exact. If this is true, I want to be sure I spend each one of those days enjoying my life here on this earth. Skydiving, cliff-jumping, and hiking are the three main tasks to be accomplished on my bucket list. Having said that, adrenaline and thrill-seeking adventure are both things I desire to experience throughout my lifetime, because life is short and should be lived to the fullest.
