First, it would be important to know the sensitivity of many people who are at risk to develop this disorder. Second, the specificity of how many people who are being affected by diabetes in order to start the treatment and to prevent more complications. This could be considered as the most difficult level because not everyone will be complied with the screening process. Next, other aspect that can be affected the screening outcomes is the implications of false negative and false positive results which are inevitable given to the people that have been screening. Last, screening is costly effective.

Before germ theory, people believed that a good treatment for diseases such as Cholera was to go somewhere and get a change of air to clear the impurities from your body (Health and Medicine). However, once the germ theory was discovered, they knew that wouldn’t be effective. Discovering how diseases were caused and spread brought on a lot more realizations about how good hygiene and sanitation is important. People started learning about how important it was to do something as small as washing hands to help prevent getting sick (Shinder). The awareness of how diseases were spread led people to learn how to help control epidemics (Shinder).

Hand Hygiene in Healthcare Healthcare associated infections are extremely problematic within neonatal intensive care units (NICUs), further resulting in morbidity and mortality (Kramer et al.,2017). Adherence to proper hand hygiene has shown to be effective in the prevention of pathogens, being transferred between a healthcare worker (HCW) and patient (Chhapola & Brar, 2015). Newborns are highly susceptible to healthcare associated infections due to underdeveloped immune and integumentary systems. Numerous factors contribute to poor hand hygiene; therefore, it is crucially important to minimize the spread of infection in the best ways possible. The purpose of this paper is to recognize the importance of proper hand hygiene in the (NICUs), they are as follows: application time of hand washing, the efficacy of hand rubs and compliance.

The story doesn’t end over here. Odor of Biosolids is harmful for human health. The major harms occur in the form of nausea and headaches, which make people sick and fatigue. These problems negatively impact the person’s job performance and general public’s mode. Thus, I would prefer to invest on the project ‘Odor Control at the

Poor communication is so important that the Institute of Medicine identified it as the cause of many medical errors (Institute of Medicine, 1999). The Center for American Nurses (2008) defines disruptive behavior as “behavior that interferes with healthy communication among providers and adversely influences performance and outcomes. For instance, at the beginning of the placement, I found a reason behind the occurrence of client errors and missing nursing interventions that is insufficient communication among my teammates. Meanwhile, I have learnt a more systematic presentation to turn over cases and apply. Standard protocols, such as SBAR (situation-background- assessment-recommendations) are now commonplace as a way to improve communication (Beckett & Kipnis, 2009).

4.2; Describe ways in which own health or hygiene might pose a risk to an individual or to others at work. Personal hygiene is a big part of being a care worker, and it also makes sure you keep up on your own health and hygiene which makes you deal with the individu-als a lot more respectful and polite. It’s not just about politeness or for personal rea-sons. A lots of different types of illnesses can be transferred through physical con-tact many other ways. Airborne illnesses can be transferred through sneezing and coughing if someone sitting by you sneezing or coughing theirs risk of you getting the airborne illness.

Communication is important because it can eliminate a number of errors during patient care. Poor communication leads to adverse surgical events .Lewis, (2002) stated that effective communication increases the quality of work, patient safety and reduces patients’ misunderstandings. Poor communication increases morbidity and mortality rates. ODPS needs to have good common skill in order to communicate between themselves or with patients. There are different forms of communication such as verbal and written communication.

Throughout this course, I learned that a healthy behavior modification is critical and plays a significant role in successful aging. However, I also learned how extremely unhealthy and stressed I am in my daily routine and how detrimental that can be for my health and overall aging, if a change is not made soon. This course quickly made me realize that I needed to make a small beneficial change in my routine that will be effective and help me cope with my unhealthy habits and aging. For instance, I learned the multiple benefits of drinking water can do, such as increasing energy, improving skin complexion, and flushing out toxins. Additionally, I learned the multiple benefits of externalizing your creativity through art.

Risk in Dental Practice Dentists work in an environment where they are frequently exposed to a number of occupational hazards. One of them is the risk of transmission of organisms found in mouth or nasopharnyx of their patients. It is important for dentists to be aware of those types of infections including their modes of transmission so that they would know the way to prevent them .Those microorganisms can be spread through contact, droplet and airborne transmission. Dentists have to practice preventive measures every time as some of the carriers may be

Every individual wishes to be healthy and disease free. Occasionally, the human health gets negatively affected due to pathogenic, disease causing microorganisms. In such cases, one takes antibiotics to cure themselves from this condition. Another mechanism to deal with this problem is vaccination which a prevention mechanism. Let us take a look at both these methods to fight diseases.

This helps to rid the body of toxins or infection. Risk for infections during the birthing process is something that is of concern. Things that increase likelihood of infection: frequent vaginal

Although no human can live without water, we can change the way that the water is filtered and constant maintenance will better insure clean water. With the pollution there needs to be a chart of levels acceptable to human consumption 's, and better pro-action in maintaining pipes and filtration systems all the way to the tap not just letting the water leave the filtration plant and letting what every happened happen. In conclusion to Water is unsatisfactory to the human population is because the water can make a human being ill, get cancer, have birth defects, and the damage to the water cannot be reversed. The structures that the water travels need to be better upheld and maintained so less contaminants make it into the drinking water. Drinking water will be improved if there is a chart for how much the water can be purified with the amount of chemicals and how much to be added to make it healthier for human consumption 's.

I will explain to the team exactly what restorative justice is and how it can be beneficial to everyone involved. I will mention that the people who come here for counseling are going through situations that are impacting more than just themselves, which is why restorative encounters could be beneficial. In order to be successful, restorative justice programs must intervene early (Rodda, 2010). The same is true for the encounters that will happen at Battlefield Ministries because with more time that goes by more wounds are created, which calls for a more difficult healing process. The counselors will be reminded to make sure the group involved in the encounter remains supportive and does not shame the individual going through counseling, as this is an important aspect of restorative justice.
