Decision makers will need to determine how to best utilize nurses, technicians, and other professionals to close the gap in providing services to patients. Nurses require less time to train, are less expensive to train, cost less to employ, and can increase the efficiency and productivity of physicians who provide care to patients. The increase in the use of health care services as well as the increase in the number of venues where health care is provided has also increased the job opportunities for nurses and other members of the healthcare workforce. The demand for primary care services has stimulated the training of nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and certified nurse

Recently, I completed ANS-Allegheny-Adult Needs and Strengths Assessment’s training and earned my certificate. I also submit all of the SCs non-bible notes in ECET. My professional role in the agency highlights the importance of self-care and advocacy when delivering services. When SCs are in the field, they have no time to eat lunch or mentally transition from one appointment to the next. A decrease in SCs caseload, by hiring more SCs, can alleviate these issues.
Practice management, consulting, and independent clinical practice are all opportunities that have been
These facilities can be improved to reach higher expectations and tremendous rewards, but in order to do so, these events taking place in nursing homes and assisted living centers need to stop immediately. One way these facilities can improve is to require further education for the employees to complete so there will be an increased amount of suitable crowds hired to work. These facilities are already unbearably expensive so it would be an easy fix to use part of that money to raise the employee’s pay. Once there is a better group of employees with higher education and better pay, then there should be improvement in the care the residents receive. Superb quality nursing homes start with a superb quality administrator.
Hope is not lost for our nations veterans, there are initiatives that may be implemented in order to improve the quality of care. We have identified four key areas that we feel will improve the quality of care for our nations veterans. These areas are; Patient Aligned Care Teams (PACTS), the program of vocational rehab, positive media relations, and universal electronic medical records. PACTS are formed when a veteran works together with multiple care disciplines in order to achieve whole person care and sustain life long wellness (VHA, 2015). These teams focus on patient medical partnerships, access to care, coordinated care among disciplines, and team based care with the veteran as the focus (VHA, 2015).
Wellness teams can assist with navigating access and peer support specialists can offer transitional support. Individual practitioners. Care providers will have greater flexibility of care and will not be dependent on a fee-for-service level of care. Primary care doctors will require and benefit from additional training in behavioral and mental health. Possible loss of autonomy in the new integrated/coordinated form of
The number of young people experiencing mental health difficulties is on the increase.

Good mental health is fundamental to the ability of young people to remain healthy and to enjoy their lives. It enables them to develop and succeed, to participate in and contribute to society.

Can the Mental Health Care System Be Improved in Treating the Unemployed? Can the Mental Health Care System Be Improved in Treating the Unemployed? The issue of unemployment has been a heavy topic of American politics for decades, with both political parties debate on how to lower the unemployment rate and offer assistance to those who cannot find jobs. These political efforts were not in vain; the overall unemployment rate has gradually decreased over the past seven years.
Tom Kitwood (1997) cited in (The Open University, 2017) supports the approach of seeing and treating people as individuals, he calls this ‘person-centred care’. This approach looks at the physical, social and psychological needs of the individual. Person-centred care encourages people to have more involvement in making decisions about their care so they get the support and service they need. There are three main types of long-term care settings such as residential care homes which offer different degrees of personal care, Nursing homes offer care which requires the skills of qualified nursing staff and long-stay hospitals which offer a more specialised medical care. (The Open University, 2017).
Nurses play an essential role in the healthcare industry. The nurse workforce is made up of licensed nurses: registered nurses (RNs), licensed vocational nurses (LVNs) and licensed practical nurses (LPNs), along with nurse aides. Registered nurses are responsible for assessments of patients’ needs, development of care plans, medication administration, and treatments, while licensed vocational nurses perform specific care under the delegation of the registered nurses and supervisions. Nursing aides perform activities of daily living (unskilled attention) to the patient. Adequate nursing staffing is essential to both patient care and outcomes, also to the retention of nurses while inadequate staffing creates problems for both the patients and

Intro: “Those who want to live, let them fight, and those who do not want to fight in this world of eternal struggle do not deserve to live.” These are the words of Adolf Hitler, perhaps the cruelest yet most charismatic leader to ever walk the face of the Earth. How did he manage to captivate and manipulate the people in one of the most advanced countries in the world? How did he persuade a generation of youth to fight in a war just 21 years after one of the deadliest conflicts in history? The answer lies in the Weimar Republic’s polarizing and strange culture.
