Personal Narrative: My Reflection During Medical School

There are several issues that make this case difficult. First, it is illegal to transfer prescription medicine to any person other than who it is prescribed, it is imprinted on every prescription label (Valid Prescription Requirements, (n.d.)). Therefore, Mrs. Poole is at fault, however Janice is just as at fault because she took the medication from Mrs. Poole knowing it was by prescription only. If Janice would have seen a doctor before beginning Babyban, she should have been warned that most birth control is not effective right away, it is advised to use a backup method, like condoms, for at least two weeks (CDC, 2013). Thus, Babyban may have actually been effective in preventing pregnancy in Janice Potts, if she had been outside of the two week window.

It is important to note that if the female is already pregnant Plan B will not work. The decision to lift the age limit and put this medication on the shelves effects everybody’s life in one way or another. It effects the places that carry the contraceptive, the parents of the female purchasing the product, as well as the female who needs to purchase Plan B due to unprotected sex. Focusing heavily on who Plan B effects directly, the female purchasing the pill, it is clear why lifting the age limit and allowing Plan B on

Having read the book before this activity I understood that there could be no correlation between what the girls presented and what they believed personally, since they did not choose the side they presented for. I did find myself automatically making snap Judgments about them as they were talking about there given topic. This phenomenon happened because the girls are more salient or stand out more than the situation. Which, in this case is when Dan said informed us that Dayna and Trinae were assigned to talk about a perspective on abortion. I tried to stop myself being fully aware that what stance they shared with the class did not reflect who they are.

I plan to continue my education full time because I understand the demands of an accelerated nursing program and preparation for the NCLEX test is a substantial commitment. I think the curriculum of the Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies, a degree program that requires pre-requisite science classes and natural science classes, helped prepare me for the requirements nursing will bring. I have also take pathophysiology as an elective at MSU and completed the State of Ohio’s STNA course and examination. This background and the focus of being a full time nursing student should contribute towards success at Xavier in the accelerated nursing program and enable me to achieve my

III. The word abortion by definition means the ending of pregnancy by removing a fetus or embryo before it can survive outside the uterus. IV. Abortion , without a doubt, is an extremely controversial issue nowadays because although some people including me, are completely against it, others believe that a woman should have the right to choose. V. Life begins at conception .

And if a heartbeat defines life, then abortion should definitely be outlawed. Moreover, have we ever thought about what pain the fetus feels? Isn’t it unfair to a little fetus to experience pain because of irresponsible parents? And the mother’s health risks isn’t a debate we should dig in, it is the mother’s responsibility and choice

They believe when DNA or any type of signs of a human they should not get an abortion . Restricting a women of her rights to have an abortion can lead to many mental health issues and affect the child as well . They are capable of self harm or harm to the child. There is resentment again the child if they have no choice to have an abortion. Women who are restricted of having an abortion often go to unsafe places to perform illegal abortion.

With reference to Shaw, effective nurses should inquire, discuss, and even disagree with physician if it is necessary to assist patients[17]. As a future nurse, I believe I would constantly acquire the latest pathological knowledge so that I could post enquiries and report syndromes to aid doctors to give right diagnosis. Moreover, I would also pay attention to patients’ physical need such as propping the patients who cannot walk by themselves, remind patient to take medicine on time, and report the doctor immediately when the patient has significant change of vital sign. These seem to be simple action. However, Association of Hong Kong Nursing Staff revealed that the average nurses-patient ratio was 1 to 11 in public hospitals, which higher than international standard 1 to 6, while doctors in hospitals work up to 80 hours per week rather than the usual 44 hours, with very little time between shifts or for meal breaks while on duty [18][19].

I took a cadaver class last year where we reviewed what we had learned from previous anatomy and physiology classes. The professor of that class is a general surgeon at St. Luke’s Hospital, and he showed us how to do certain medical procedures while we got to practice using the cadaver. We dissected the cadaver as well as learned to suture. That class was by far my favorite class I’ve taken since I’ve been in college, and it made me feel very excited for my future working in the medical

Doctors take an oath, to treat the ill to the best on one's ability, to preserve a patient’s privacy, to teach the secrets of medicine to the next generation, and so on. A doctor should not have the right to deny a woman the right to an abortion when it is their duty to do whatever possible to comply with the wishes of a patient, and if a woman does not feel capable of being responsible of another child, or was brutally raped and impregnated, she should not have to worry about being denied an abortion. There will never be a clear answer as to whether an abortion is the right or wrong thing to do, but each woman is unique in her case and her reasoning for her abortion, and each case has different factors and circumstances, so no one should be able to decide for a woman her

Although I was focused on pursuing a career in the law I was also intrigued by the medical field. I was exposed to the world of medicine from a very young age. My mother, sister, and grandmother all had careers in the field. I was always the selected person to help them study for a quiz, practice a procedure on, and to hear about their stories from work. Their careers seemed fascinating.

These classes will better prepare me for medical school by helping me establish a solid foundation in the anatomical sciences. The familiarity that these courses will provide me with related medical school courses will aid me in acclimating to medical school more efficiently, and to perform at a superb academic level. Attending a medical school that is community-focused and that is service-oriented is what makes Morehouse a uniquely good fit. Morehouse will be gaining a student that is unquestionably passionate about medicine, highly motivated and ambitious, and that will take full advantage of utilizing all of his resources to succeed in medical

I also do well in math and science classes, and science classes, in particular, are extremely interesting to me. What sparked my interest in becoming a Physician Assistant was my sister. She has been studying to become a PA and has enjoyed it. I can continue to learn about this career by talking to my sister about all that she is learning and asking her about what it is like. Also, I can keep doing research on Physician Assistants in any way that I can to keep educating myself on the career.

The doctors believe there is a strong body/mind/emotional context to her problem. The hospital practices evidence based medicine and ask you to provide an evidence-based decision as to whether your programs could help in this case. Case 1: Louisa Age: 25 Presenting problem-Louisa has a history of allergies. Currently, she has a very stubborn and agonizing rashes on hands and arms. Doctors query eczema but would run more tests to be sure.

It should be the women 's choice (pause). Sometimes they want the child and just can 't have the child because if could kill them or affect their health and the babies (pause). When it comes to teen pregnancy it 's very hard to give a child up for adoption so they feel abortion would be a better answer (pause). Sometimes the girl is just too young and her parents won 't support her (pause). A woman needs to have a choice in what they want to do with their body because at the end of the day it 's the woman 's body, the woman 's life, and the woman 's
