The Yellow Wallpaper Literal Analysis

Description

Read “The Yellow Wallpaper”, https://www.nlm.nih.gov/exhibition/theliteratureof…

  1. Watch the video: Dr. Bernstein’s Intro to Symbols in “The Yellow Wallpaper” by Charlotte Perkins Gilman.

Then, go to the story itself. Find at least three references to the wallpaper and discuss what you believe is significant about each one.

  1. The journal entries in the story “The Yellow Wallpaper” can be read as illustrating a woman’s decent into madness/deep depression. What if we don’t read the work this way? If we look at this story as a story of epiphany/realization (like “Cathedral”), what might the author be describing or illustrating with each passing journal entry written by the narrator? In other words, what is a positive spin or take on the story? What does the narrator realize? Why does she reference herself as “Jane” at the end of the story?
  1. Read and respond to “Why I Wrote ‘The Yellow Wallpaper'”.

  1. From whose point of view is the story being told? Are the thoughts of one character prominent in the story? How does this type of narration help you to better understand the relationship between the women?
  1. Trace Mrs. Ansley’s knitting through the story. What do you think the knitting represents? (We will connect the knitting of Mrs. Ansley to the knitting of Mrs. Wright in Trifles in a few weeks.)

Rasmussen College Interpersonal Process Recording Questions

Description

It will be carried out with two students working together. This is a “role play exercise,” in which one student is the student nurse, and the other will role play as a client.

It is expected that you will think of other ways to respond or interact with the client that may be more therapeutic after the interaction is terminated. After the conversation is over, you will complete in IPR form.

The client roles are:

MDC Nursing Overcoming Inequalities and Defending Human Rights Discussions

Description

DISCUSSION QUESTION #1

Overcoming Inequalities and Defending Human Rights

While the UN celebrated the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in 2018, the world also saw its 12th consecutive year of decline in global freedom, with 71 countries suffering net declines in political and civil liberties.

In many places, girls and women’s rights are deteriorating and harmful laws deny girls and women justice and dignity. The global pay gap will now take over 200 years to close.

Instructions: Please visit the The Global Goals website. https://www.globalgoals.org/goals/5-gender-equalit…, Click on “Explore the Targets” and choose one (1) target for Gender Equality. Write a paragraph (minimum 3-4 sentences) stating:

Kenyatta University Dangers of Adolescent Pregnancy Case Studies Paper

Description

no need of referencing  just response 

Igho

When an adolescent becomes pregnant against her will, she is almost always unprepared for the obligations of parenthood. On the other hand, teenagers still have much maturing to do. So, having a kid might be a daunting prospect for both teens and their parents. Socioeconomic variables, such as low income and a lack of education, enhance the likelihood of an adolescent becoming pregnant (Curry et al., 2017). Adolescent pregnancy increases the risk of maternal problems throughout pregnancy and delivery for both the mother and baby. Among the dangers of adolescent pregnancy include premature birth, fetal growth restriction, and the death of the newborn. Children born to young mothers have higher chances of dropping out of school, having health issues, being incarcerated, being unemployed, and becoming pregnant at a younger age.

Even though New Jersey’s adolescent birth rate and teen pregnancy rate both rank 18th out of 50 states, the state ranks 5th out of 50 in terms of a drop in the teen birth rate, meaning that the decline is occurring more slowly than in the other states (Sámano et al., 2017). The lowest number is one, and the most significant number is 50. NJ PREP is an educational and society-integrated sexual health training program that encompasses chastity, contraception, women’s health, and sexual and reproductive education (Sámano et al., 2017). For young people aged 10 to 19, PREP replicates evidence-based and medically correct programs that have been shown to reduce reoffending, such as unprotected sex, or encourage alternative forms of safer sex.

WU Diagnosis for Pain in Lower Back Discussion

Description

    The body is constantly sending signals about its health. One of the most easily recognized signals is pain. Musculoskeletal conditions comprise one of the leading causes of severe long-term pain in patients. The musculoskeletal system is an elaborate system of interconnected levers that provides the body with support and mobility. Because of the interconnectedness of the musculoskeletal system, identifying the causes of pain can be challenging. Accurately interpreting the cause of musculoskeletal pain requires an assessment process informed by patient history and physical exams.

In this Discussion, you will consider case studies that describe abnormal findings in patients seen in a clinical setting.

To prepare:

  • By Day 1 of this week, you will be assigned to one of the following specific case studies for this Discussion. Please see the “Course Announcements” section of the classroom for your assignment from your Instructor.
  • Your Discussion post should be in the Episodic/Focused SOAP Note format rather than the traditional narrative style Discussion posting format. Refer to Chapter 2 of the Sullivan text and the Episodic/Focused SOAP Template in the Week 5 Learning Resources for guidance. Remember that all Episodic/Focused SOAP notes have specific data included in every patient case.
  • Review the following case studies:

A 42-year-old male reports pain in his lower back for the past month. The pain sometimes radiates to his left leg. In determining the cause of the back pain, based on your knowledge of anatomy, what nerve roots might be involved? How would you test for each of them? What other symptoms need to be explored? What are your differential diagnoses for acute low back pain? Consider the possible origins using the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) guidelines as a framework. What physical examination will you perform? What special maneuvers will you perform?
