Defining the Nursing Contribution to Patient Outcome
[ send me this paper ]
An 11 page exploration of the relationship which exists between nursing contribution and patient outcome. The author of this paper asserts a more and more predominant theme in nursing is the nurse’s one-on-one interaction with the patient and the consideration of such factors as culture and even spiritualism in patient care delivery. While at one time nursing was a discipline which concentrated primarily on the science of human anatomy and physiology, nursing has evolved to a discipline which recognizes not only the hard scientific facts of physiology but also the importance of psychological and sociological factors.

Do Alternative Healing Devices -- Such As Those Offered By The Gentle Wind Project -- Aid In The Development Of Positive Approaches To Trauma And Stress?
[ send me this paper ]
12 pages in length. Human beings have become so entangled within the limitations of mortal existence that few even realize, much less accept, the extent to which traumatic and stressful healing can take place resides far beyond the stringent realm of mortality's temporal state. That alternative healing devices, such as those developed by The Gentle Wind Project, have infiltrated an otherwise biased and unyielding global community where conventional medicine reigns supreme speaks volumes about the powers that exist outside of man's understanding. Healing is a complex transpiration and cannot be approached in a one-dimensional manner; rather, its multifaceted composition requires a comprehensive understanding of how the body, mind and spiritual existence work synergistically as a means by which to achieve this objective.

Dwight Eisenhower's "Military-Industrial Complex" Warning
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page paper relating this former president's 1961 warning to current nursing practice. "See your doctor." "Ask your doctor about ____ and if it's right for you." So go pharmaceutical companies' advertising directly to consumers who cannot directly purchase their products. As health care costs continue to spiral despite efforts to contain the rate of increase, pharmaceutical companies spend millions on advertising to those powerless to purchase the prescription drugs they tout.
