Accountability in Nursing: The Interrelationships of the Hierarchical Structure
[ send me this essay ]
A 4 page discussion of accountability in nursing. Contends that accountability is an integral component of all aspects of nursing. The nurse is, of course, above all accountable for the well-being of his or her patient but, with recent pressure from state legislators and higher education coordinating agencies, accountability is becoming a greater and greater emphasis of all aspects of nursing. In the case of student nurses, and indeed all levels of nurses, this accountability is channeled through a chain of command, a chain of accountability which can extend both upwards (through the institutional hierarchy), downwards (to the patient) and even sideways (to colleagues and other professionals) dependent on the organizational structure.

Acupuncture--Its Time Has Come
[ send me this essay ]
A 5 page essay that argues that acupuncture should be used more extensively and preferred over drug therapy. The traditional stance of Western culture and Western medicine is to regard ancient Chinese medicine, with its herbal remedies and needles, as superstition. However, contemporary medical practitioners are beginning to realize that this attitude is not only ethnocentric, it is simply wrong. Western pharmacologically based medicine can do wonderful things, but it can also cause extremely adverse drug reactions. On the other hand, there is a growing body of empirical research that verifies that alternative medicine, with techniques such as acupuncture, offer safe, effective means for bypassing the dangers entailed in extensive pharmacology.
