The nature/nurture conflict gives parents and child development specialists cause for much discussion. A child's temperament and, therefore, his actions are indeed greatly affected by his gene pool. How a parent is able to deal with that child and his actions will considerably affect the outcome of his upbringing. It is widely accepted that a child whose needs are attended with reasonable speed will learn that the world is a dependable place. This trust in others gives him the base he needs to develop trust in the most important person in the world - himself. Some parents believe they will spoil a child if they give too much attention to the child as an infant. They do not hold the child frequently, do not believe in rocking a child, and allow the child to cry for long periods of time instead of picking him/her up. Children cannot be spoiled by parents who provide loving care. But the parents must respect themselves enough, not to allow the child to become a tyrant over them. Parents who are realistic and consistent in their expectations of their children will raise children with firm foundations for independence. Independence for their children should be the goal of parents. What do parents need to do for their children, to show they are realistic and consistent, and to pass along the love and respect children need? Infants' needs must be met reasonably. If a child cries, he/she is signaling he/she is either hungry, wet, or uncomfortable. A parent must attend to an infant in a reasonable time to teach the infant trust. Infants need verbal and tactile stimulation from the parent. A parent's talking, cooing, or singing to an infant increases the child's learning process. Tactile stimulation of holding and rocking are necessary for the infant's emotional health and growth. On the practical side, infants should live in clean, safe surroundings. This includes regular baths and diaper changes, being fed regularly as directed by a physician, and receiving regular checkups and immunizations. What a parent does for and with an infant is expanded, as the child grows older and more independent. The older child continues to need verbal and tactile stimulation. This can be provided in the way a parent shows affection and teaches his/her child about life. The older child needs consistent care, which includes encouragement to learn by being allowed to explore his/her surroundings. When the child is school age, the parent must express encouragement of learning by being interested in his/her school attendance and progress. As a child becomes an adolescent the parenting task becomes different, yet the same. The older child is preparing to become independent of the parent. It is at this time that realistic and consistent parenting will pay off. A child raised with respect will generally respond with respect to his/her parent. A parent should never relax in his/her role as a parent. A parent must always be on the job to provide nurture, love, acce

Running Head: ASSESMENT OF CHILD’S BEHAVIOR 1 ASSESMENT OF CHILD’S BEHAVIOR 8 ASSESMENT OF CHILD’S BEHAVIOR Argosy University For purposes of this assignment case study, two shall be used to complete this assignment Brandon who is an African – American eight-year-old who is in third grade has shown disinterest in academics. His tendencies of always complaining that he is hungry and bored in class will other kids are reading and even draws pictures, not only does it show that the child is not interested in school, but he is mentally traumatized and that there are other factors that are making him not to focus. The incident of wetting his bed occasionally also has to deal with psychological effects and the surroundings that Brandon is subjected to. The paper will dwell on the issues that majorly affect the behaviors of a child and how the surrounding environment in which a child is subjected to can affect how they behave. To give to explanations on the behavior of a child bearing in mind the ecological factors that the child is subjected to the following are some of the inference that can be drawn. A child behavior is determined by the environment which he or she grows in. In a child grows in a family that domestic violence is prevalent then the chances of that child being a bully and violent are very high. Most children learn through hearing and seeing. Whatever they will hear be it at home or from their neighbors then the likelihood of the child repeating this is very high. In Brandon’s situation of complaining to be bored can be assumed to have been taken from his father’s action of sleeping after losing his job. Parents are supposed to set an example to the kids, and thus they create an atmosphere in which their kids can grow to become great men and women in the society. When the father fails to get out and go to look for a job, then it shows that he has completely lost hope in life and finds everything boring and this can be easily reciprocated to the children since they will get to hear what their father is saying and doing. The parental behavior plays a major role in transforming the behavior of the child. The psychological effect that this bears is that the child will become more aggressive from this situation since the father is frustrated and he may decide to vent his anger to the kids this will, in turn, make the child rebellious in trying to show that he can be bale to defend himself or herself. The social environment also plays a key role in that the kid can associate with his neighbors; they will, in turn, tend to borrow and exchange behaviors that will affect how they relate. In Brandon’s scenario it will be assumed that he is not from a well of family and thus they are struggling to make ends meet and settling the bill, this, therefore, leads us to the inclination that the neighbo ...

Competency Analyze ethical and legal dilemmas that healthcare workers may encounter in the medical field. Instructions You have recently been promoted to Health Services Manager at Three Mountains Regional Hospital, a small hospital located in a mid-size city in the Midwest. Three Mountains is a general medical and surgical facility with 400 beds. Last year there were approximately 62,000 emergency visits and 15,000 admissions. More than 6,000 outpatient and 10,000 inpatient surgeries were performed. An important aspect of the provider/patient relationship pertains to open communication and trust. Patients want to know that their doctors and the support staff associated with their care understand their wishes and will abide by them. Ideally, these conversations happen well before an emergency or procedure takes place; however, often times this information is missing from a patient's file. As part of Three Mountains' initiative to build trust with their patients, an increased emphasis has been placed on obtaining living wills from the patient as part of the intake process to ensure that the healthcare team has written directives of the patient's wishes in case of incapacitation. You will be creating a living will for a patient and provide educational information as to why the patient should fill it out during the admission process before a procedure. Introduction: Explain the definition of a living will and its key components. This section will provide an educational overview of the document for the patient. Living Will Template: Create a living will that can serve as a template to the patients. This should cover the basic treatment issues such as resuscitation, feeding tubes, ventilation, organ and tissue donations, etc. Provide instructions in the template that can be easily altered, depending on each patient's wishes. Summary: In this section, you will discuss the importance of this document and encourage patients to complete it. Address how this document ensures that a patient's wishes are known and followed by the healthcare team. NOTE - APA formatting and proper grammar, punctuation, and form required.

Competences, Learning Theories and MOOCs: Recent Developments in Lifelong Learning Karl Steffens Introduction We think of our societies as ‘knowledge societies’ in which lifelong learning is becoming increasingly important. Lifelong learning refers to the idea that people not only learn in schools and universities, but also in non-formal and informal ways during their lifespan.The concepts of lifelong learning and lifelong education began to enter the discourse on educational policies in the late 1960s (Tuijnman & Boström, 2002). However, these are related, but distinct concepts. As Lee (2014, p. 472) notes ‘the terminological change (from lifelong education, continuing education and adult education, to lifelong learning) reflects a conceptual departure from the idea of organised educational provision to that of a more individualised pursuit of learning’. One of the first important documents on lifelong learning was the report of the International Commission on the Development of Education to UNESCO in 1972, titled ‘Learning to be. The world of education today and tomorrow’. In his introductory letter to the Director-General of UNESCO, the chairman of the Commission, Edgar Faure, stated that the work of the Commission was based on four assumptions (see Elfert pp. and Carneiro pp. in this issue). The first was related to the idea that there was an international community which was united by common aspirations and the second was the belief in democracy and in education as its keystones. The third was ‘that the aim of development is the complete fulfilment of man, in all the richness of his personality, the complexity of his forms of expression and his various commitments — as individual, member of a family and of a community, citizen and producer, inventor of techniques and creative dreamer’. The last assumption was that ‘only an over-all, lifelong education can produce the kind of complete man, the need for whom is increasing with the continually more stringent constraints tearing the individual asunder’ (Faure, 1972, p. vi). Following the Faure Report, the UNESCO Institute for Education, which was founded in Germany in 1951, started to focus on lifelong learning and subsequently became the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning (UIL, http:// uil.unesco.org/home/). It was under its leadership that a formal model of lifelong education was developed and published in the book ‘Towards a System of Life- long Education’ (Cropley, 1980). The concept of lifelong learning also became manifest in the ‘Education for All’ (EFA) agenda that was launched at the World Conference on Education for All which took place in Jomtien (Thailand) in 1990 (Inter-Agency Commission, 1990). Ten years later, at the World Education Forum in Dakar (Senegal) in 2000, the Dakar Framework for Action was designed ‘to enable all individuals to realize their right to learn and to fulfil their responsibility to contribute to the development of their society’ (UNESCO, 2000, p..

Compensation, Benefits, Reward & Recognition Plan for V.P. Operations Learning Team B HRM 595 December 19, 2017 Rosalie M. Lopez Running head: COMPENSATION, BENEFITS, REWARD & RECOGNITION PLAN 1 COMPENSATION, BENEFITS, REWARD & RECOGNITION PLAN 2 Compensation, Benefits, Reward & Recognition Plan for V.P. Operations Introduction Base Salary Range For the position of VP of Operations, the National Average Salary is $122,624. In San Francisco, the average is higher and placed at $155,946. This amount is 16% higher than the National Average (Payscale, 2016). The reason for this increase is because of experience and geography. These are the two prime factors that impact the pay scale. Another major factor is the employer. Most employers base their decision to hire an individual on the experience they bring with them. Of course, with more experience, higher pay is required. With our company cutting cost a less experienced individual would be the best fit for the position. Standard Employee Benefit In many cases, your employee benefits could be the turning point for a prospective employee. This benefit is a vital portion of any employee packet. These valuable benefits are used as a blanket of security in the case of any sickness, injury, unemployment, old age, or death (Gomez-Mejia, Balkin & Cardy, 2015, p. 362). There is a significant difference between incentives and benefits: benefits are financial and nonfinancial compensations that are indirect to the employee. To have a competitive strategy Blossoms Up! must align their profits with the compensation package that has been already put in place. This action will help provide flexibility to the amount and the benefits available (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2015). There are also some benefits that most companies are legally obligated to provide. Three benefits are required regardless of the number of employees that the company has. These interests involve social security, workers compensation, and unemployment insurance (Gomez-Mejia et al., 2015). Other laws must be adhered to when dealing with a certain number of individuals. When a company has 50 or more employee they must have the Family and Medical Leave Act in place and since its induction in 2015 the Affordable Care Act for Health Insurance for companies with 20 or more employees.
