Introduction
The prevention of pregnancy complications is crucial to ensuring maternal and fetal health in hospital care settings. Numerous efforts have been made including the Healthy People 2020 program, to ensure that the health care configuration assesses, measures, identifies and implements interventions to ensure the health and wellbeing of all citizens. These efforts are crucial to ensuring that all individuals have equal access to adequate and affordable health care. The same holds for pregnant women and their health is just as important, as is the health and wellbeing of fetuses (Wallace et al., 2016). This paper looks into preventing pregnancy complications, policies for preventive services, developing a primary health plan, the evaluation criteria of the health plan, a preventive health program evaluation, a health problem, and pregnancy complications including preeclampsia.

Eating disorders in pregnancy:
practical considerations for
the midwife
I t is estimated that 5–8% of women may be experiencing an eating disorder in early pregnancy (Micali et al, 2016; Bye et al, 2018a). Eating disorders fall into four main categories: anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating
disorders and other specified feeding or eating disorders
(OSFED). Prevalence rates of each are variable, however,
and research indicates that there are similar numbers of
women with anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge

eating disorders, with an increased number of those with
OSFED (Bye et al, 2018a). Although eating disorders can
develop at any age, midwives should be aware that the
risk is highest for young men and women aged between
13–17 years (National Institute for Health and Care
Excellence (NICE), 2017), and that it may therefore have
an effect across a woman’s childbearing years.
The risks of poor outcomes for mother and baby are
well documented (Franko et al, 2001; Solmi et al, 2014;
Micali et al, 2016; Kimmel et al, 2016) and, dependent
on the type of disorder, could include miscarriage,
fetal anomaly, prolonged pregnancy and labour,
growth‑restricted fetus, higher rates of infection and
venous thrombosis, lower rates of successful breastfeeding,
and a high risk of perinatal depression and anxiety. It
should be noted that eating disorder symptoms may
improve during pregnancy and return after birth (Crow
et al, 2008; Fogarty et al, 2018).
Identification of eating disorders
Early identification and awareness of the disorder in
the antenatal and postnatal period is vital. NICE (2017)
guidance recommends that midwives should enquire
about any history of mental ill health early in pregnancy,
and this should include eating disorders. However,
disclosure may not always occur, as many women with
an eating disorder find it difficult or distressing to discuss
their condition with health professionals, due to stigma
or a fear of being judged (Cantrell et al, 2009; Stringer
et al, 2010; Bye et al, 2018a). The clinician may therefore
need to rely on clinical indicators to help them establish
the medical history (Box 1). If an eating disorder is not
disclosed but is suspected after initial assessment, an
attempt to discuss the matter with the woman should be
made in order to elicit consent and refer her for further
assessment and treatment as required. BMI is a clinical
indicator that may predict possible eating disorders
and is calculated by dividing bodyweight in kilograms
by the square of he.

The fore essence of health care system,ortheory of health,at any setting is to preserve, sustain life; and in the long run, perpetuate the existence of mankind by providing health care interventions on a continuous basis(Pellegrino, 1981).However, in appreciating the veracity of health care philosophies, that is preserving life; a great credence must be given to the main ‘bearer of life’ and the ‘process of life’itself- women and the fetus!
Natal care is the basic and foundation of life. Human lives started from thewombs of women; as afetus. In this regard, women are supreme they are the vehicle of procreation and regeneration of mankind.No woman; no life! The value of women and the unborn child in a nation or in any human society cannot be over emphasized. As a matter of fact women are the bedrock of life.
Looking at it from the ‘creation dimension of evolution theory’; the first man was lonely and unproductive until a created woman came into the picture of his life! Then, they started producing and bringing forth offspring to multiply the population of thehuman race. No wonder, religious scriptures, which are the arch references for creation postulations of the evolution theory; place adorable value on womanhood.

In 1791, September 5, precisely,French authority made a popular declaration, for women and female citizens; which later came to be known worldwide as the declaration of ‘the Rights of Women or the Women Right’. In 1995, atthe fourth World Conference on Women, held in Beijing, UNO (United Nations Organization) made women-protective declarations known as the Beijing Declaration for Women. In our present modern times, women protective promulgations and frameworks have emerged and reemerged;and have been embraced by nations. However, global legislative and societal protections which the women folks have received over the years and history of mankind cannot be unconnected to recognizing the fact that, women are the life-bearers, mothers of the world, mothers of children both born and unborn(De Gouges, 1997; Otto, 1996).

Maternal care is essential for women and infants. Maternal care extends from the pregnancy period to the period after giving birth. The use of contraceptives lies in this sector of healthcare. Florida's policies on the use of contraceptives allow everyone from any age to purchase contraceptives. Therefore, even at an age below 18 years, it is possible and legal to acquire contraceptives. Abortion is a criminal offense in several nations all over the world. In Florida, abortion is legal. Fifty-six percent of Florida's adults revealed that abortion ought to be legal in most or even all cases. However, Florida requires that, for all persons under the age of eighteen years, a legal guardian or parent be notified of the abortion before the plan is put into motion and permit the victim to have an abortion. Insurance cover does not cover voluntary abortion. However, suppose the abortion is meant to protect the mother's life, and it is certified by a medical professional. In that case, a case can be made for the insurance to cover the abortion (Ely et al., 2020). Therefore, abortion for women with insurance cover may differ a little bit from those without insurance cover (Ely et al., 2020).
Florida's infant mortality rate was 6.01 deaths per thousand live births in 2019 (Atwell, 2019). Infant and maternal mortality rates are related in that they occur during birth or abortion. Infant mortality is the death of an infant during childbirth, while maternal mortality is the death of the mother during the process of giving birth. Infant and maternal mortality rates may occur mostly during abortions if the process is not performed well; or due to other complications during the process of giving birth (Atwell, 2019).

Access to Maternal Health Resources and Polices in Florida State
Florida is a developed state where maternal health is taken seriously. The family planning health services there are rendered by independent agencies and health departments of local hospitals. For example, women of different ages and with various levels of income have access to FDA-approved birth control methods, screening for cancer and STDs, pregnancy tests and counseling (Blakeney et al., 2020). Moreover, the healthcare system of the state is able to provide follow-up and referral services. Those residents of Florida who live below the poverty line are provided with the abovementioned services for free. When it comes to abortion, it can be administered to all pregnant women up to 18 weeks. When it comes to teenagers, Florida law requires them to notify their parents about the intention to have an ab ...

“Preconception Care” and the Transformation of Women’s Health Care into Repro...ParentingCultureStudies
In this paper I examine the recent, vigorously touted “preconception” care movement in the United States. With the 2009 publication of What to Expect Before You Are Expecting, and the Center for Disease Control’s 2006 guidelines urging that all primary care for women of reproductive age be treated as “preconception” care, the time when women’s bodies are interpreted as maternal bodies is extended backwards to before conception even occurs – and indeed, often to before women are even planning to become pregnant. The new CDC guidelines explicitly warn that “the average woman of reproductive age encounters the medical system 3.8 times per year and any of these occasions may be a woman’s last before she becomes pregnant.”Running Head The Study of Effects of Smoking in Pregnant Women1.docx

The Study of Effects of Smoking in Pregnant Women
Smoking during pregnancy carries considerable dangers to both mother and the unborn baby. Prenatal exposure to maternal cigarette smoking (PEMCS) is linked, therefore, with many different obstetric complications such as an augmented danger of ectopic pregnancy, fetal development limitation, placental previa and abruption, preterm premature rip apart of the membranes, preterm delivery, unexpected newborn death syndrome, and oral facial clefts among others. Despite these risks, women still smoke during pregnancy. There is, therefore, a great need to develop policies and interventions such as discovering what can help the women to cease smoking, in order to reduce these risks. As such, alternatives such as the use of electronic cigarettes can be introduced to the pregnant smokers. Treatment for smoking can also be offered to women during pregnancy.
Background
The following section will discuss the background of the topic. Smoking during pregnancy exposes the mother and unborn child to great risks. Prenatal exposure to maternal cigarette smoking (PEMCS) is linked, therefore, with many different obstetric complications. According to Bauld (2017), the complications could range from an augmented danger of ectopic pregnancy, fetal development limitation, placental previa and abruption, preterm premature rip apart of the membranes, preterm delivery, unexpected newborn death syndrome, and oral facial clefts. Anblagan et al., (2013) includes more risks such as the development of respiratory diseases, gestational bleeding, obesity and obesity associated disorders like cardiovascular as well as diabetes results that start when the child reaches puberty. However, intrauterine growth restriction is the most common of them all. Considering all these risks and the fact that women who smoke carry on with this habit during pregnancy, there is a great need to develop policies and interventions that would address this matter. As such, there is need to discover what can be given to these women to help in cessation. General Problem Statement
The general problem is that there are limited researches that detail about smoking patterns in pregnant women. A research by Eiden et al., (2013) indicates a shifting trajectory in pregnant smokers and major changes in due course within each trajectory. This element is important as it has the prospective to notify timing of smoking cessation intervention. Specific Problem Statement
The specific problem is that there is little information about the stability of cessation efforts on the elements that distinguish women who effectively minimize smoking during their pregnancy in comparison to the persistent smokers who stop later in pregnancy. For example, little is known about low-income expectant smokers’ demographic factors such as monetary challenges, p.

Explain the role of health education in health promotion. How is the nursing process used in developing health education? Describe a contemporary issue, local or global, that a family may experience today. What steps would the nurse take to address these as part of a health education plan?
The role of health education in health promotion is vital. Health promotion by definition is “educating people about healthy lifestyles, reduction of risk, developmental needs, activities of daily living (ADL’s) and preventive self-care.” (Whitney et al., 2018). In order to live a healthy lifestyle an individual must know what a “healthy lifestyle” consists of. The same goes for reducing risks, ADL’s, preventative self-care and developmental needs. It is important for the healthcare professional or in our case, the nurse, to educate an individual continuously for the duration of the patient's care with the nurse. They should be educated on what the medications are that they are being given, as well as why it is being administered, dosage, route etc. For example, patients always want to know why they are getting Lovenox or Protonix when they have not taken it before. They should also be educated on diet choices, at the hospital that I work at, sometimes the patients will be placed on certain diets like nothing by mouth (NPO), American Diabetes Association (ADA), renal, heart healthy, low potassium etc., and they state that they do not have diet restrictions at home, so they have to be educated on why they were placed on the diet and they should consider this type of diet once discharged.
The nursing process is used in developing health education because the nurse must assess the patient. This assessment is not only a head to toe assessment, but the nurse must also determine the patients needs, readiness to learn and the patient's ability and desire to actively engage in their plan of care and meeting goals. Then the nurse makes their nursing diagnoses, for example is their non-compliance evident, immobility, learning deficit etc. The nurse then develops a plan of care and action that can be made with the patient and begins to implement the plan of care. The nurse and patient evaluate how well they are meeting their care goals and continue to develop a plan that changes to the patients needs and better assists with meeting goals. Throughout the whole process the nurse is educating the patient on what the problem is preventing the patient from getting better and then the nurse educates the patient on how they can work towards solving that problem.
A contemporary issue that a family may experience today is the issue of vaccination. There is a lot of information out there that is telling parents to not vaccinate their children. However, recently there was an issue with a measles outbreak in New York where I live, as well as some other states. In the media there became this discussion about the importance of vaccinating your children, not only for the.

The Effects of Smoking in Pregnant Women
Background
The following section highlights some historical and reviewed information or material on smoking during pregnancy, and some of the effects the practice has not only on the unborn children but also on the mothers. Most people associate smoking with heart disease, cancer and major health conditions that have been documented in different scholarly materials. Smoking during the period of pregnancy is attributed to additional health challenges most of which are connected with the well-being of the unborn child (Banderali et al., 2015). It has been documented that smoking cigarettes is the leading cause of preventable deaths in several parts of the country and the rest of the world. Estimated figures of smoking prevalence during pregnancy are most of the time derived from self-reported data and information.
Validation of these data and information using biochemical markers like cotinine has most of the time shown that women who are pregnant may hide their smoking especially when they understand the kind of reactions they could be exposed to. As a result, the self-reported smoking prevalence data and information during pregnancy is underestimated (Banderali et al., 2015). Since negative attitudes towards maternal smoking have been on the increasing trend over the recent past, the validity and credibility of self-reported smoking data and information may be of special attention (Banderali et al., 2015).
This literature perspective brings forth an understanding on the consequences of smoking during pregnancy from the perspective of brain functioning and how the developing fetus is likely to be affected by the common practice. Banderali et al. (2015) stress that mothers often want healthy babies full of life and with a high brain capacity. However, smoking has been illustrated to have an immediate impact on how the fetus is developed and how the capacity of the brain is affected. Environmental factors can massively modulate genetically programmed development of the brain during the fetal life, and maternal smoking is a harmful factor (Banderali et al., 2015). It is saddening that while pregnant mothers and other people in the society have widespread and detailed knowledge and information on the consequences of smoking on the development of the fetus, statistics still show that more than 20 percent of women in this category continue with the practice in several parts of the world, Europe and United States not left behind (Ekblad, Korkeila & Lehtonen, 2015).
Statistics speculate that women and first-time mothers especially those coming from low-income families are worst hit by the effects of smoking during pregnancy, as compared to the older women who have had mo.

Abstract
Maternal, infant health is very essential for the progress of any country since they form the pillar of our future generations. United States has made significant strides towards securing the maternal and child health through various initiatives and programs within the country and around the globe. Despite the existence of health care initiatives to promote maternal, infant and child health, maternal and infant mortalities are still recorded on a daily basis in the U.S. Risk factors to maternal, infant and child mortalities include poor and a lack of a antenatal care attendance, unskilled birth attendants,ce and childhood illnesses. More than a quarter of every single maternal mortality is because of postpartum hemorrhaginge, for the most part after labor.
Infant mortality is another prevalent case that contributes to the worsening situation in child and maternal health, because of untimely births represent more than a quarter of infant mortalities, trailed by mortalities during births and neonatal sepsis. Maternal and child health (MCH) programs concentrate on medical problems concerning related to mothers, children, and families – such as , for example, access to suitable pre-natal and child welfare services, baby mortality mitigation initiatives, emergency medical services, prevention of injuries, infant screening, and administrations to kidschildren children with unique health care needs. The United States is working to prevent maternal deaths, infant mortalities, and child mortalities, and to reduce the prevalence of these incidences. It calls for a multidisciplinary approach in order to eliminate this issue affecting the mothers and children. Reinforcing referral systems and linkages between various levels of hospital-based patient care, and between healthcare organizations providers and the general population, must be a top needpriority.

Use of oral contraception benefits, risks and ethical dilemma
Contraception as a method to prevent pregnancy has been used since ancient time by many cultures. In Albania, traditional withdrawal was the preferred choice for many years. Oral contraceptives were legalized in Albania in 1992 and have been distributed free at government health centers since 1993. Nevertheless, Albanian population have more confidence in traditional withdrawal than in modern methods of contraception, emphasizing how little couples know about family planning and the weakness of subsequent family planning education efforts. However, some ethical dilemmas and groups oppose the distribution of contraceptives. This piece of paper will be focused in use of oral contraceptives, benefits, risks and ethical point of view.

Maternal care is essential for women and infants. Maternal care extends from the pregnancy period to the period after giving birth. The use of contraceptives lies in this sector of healthcare. Florida's policies on the use of contraceptives allow everyone from any age to purchase contraceptives. Therefore, even at an age below 18 years, it is possible and legal to acquire contraceptives. Abortion is a criminal offense in several nations all over the world. In Florida, abortion is legal. Fifty-six percent of Florida's adults revealed that abortion ought to be legal in most or even all cases. However, Florida requires that, for all persons under the age of eighteen years, a legal guardian or parent be notified of the abortion before the plan is put into motion and permit the victim to have an abortion. Insurance cover does not cover voluntary abortion. However, suppose the abortion is meant to protect the mother's life, and it is certified by a medical professional. In that case, a case can be made for the insurance to cover the abortion (Ely et al., 2020). Therefore, abortion for women with insurance cover may differ a little bit from those without insurance cover (Ely et al., 2020).
Florida's infant mortality rate was 6.01 deaths per thousand live births in 2019 (Atwell, 2019). Infant and maternal mortality rates are related in that they occur during birth or abortion. Infant mortality is the death of an infant during childbirth, while maternal mortality is the death of the mother during the process of giving birth. Infant and maternal mortality rates may occur mostly during abortions if the process is not performed well; or due to other complications during the process of giving birth (Atwell, 2019).

Access to Maternal Health Resources and Polices in Florida State
Florida is a developed state where maternal health is taken seriously. The family planning health services there are rendered by independent agencies and health departments of local hospitals. For example, women of different ages and with various levels of income have access to FDA-approved birth control methods, screening for cancer and STDs, pregnancy tests and counseling (Blakeney et al., 2020). Moreover, the healthcare system of the state is able to provide follow-up and referral services. Those residents of Florida who live below the poverty line are provided with the abovementioned services for free. When it comes to abortion, it can be administered to all pregnant women up to 18 weeks. When it comes to teenagers, Florida law requires them to notify their parents about the intention to have an ab ...

“Preconception Care” and the Transformation of Women’s Health Care into Repro...ParentingCultureStudies
In this paper I examine the recent, vigorously touted “preconception” care movement in the United States. With the 2009 publication of What to Expect Before You Are Expecting, and the Center for Disease Control’s 2006 guidelines urging that all primary care for women of reproductive age be treated as “preconception” care, the time when women’s bodies are interpreted as maternal bodies is extended backwards to before conception even occurs – and indeed, often to before women are even planning to become pregnant. The new CDC guidelines explicitly warn that “the average woman of reproductive age encounters the medical system 3.8 times per year and any of these occasions may be a woman’s last before she becomes pregnant.”Running Head The Study of Effects of Smoking in Pregnant Women1.docx

The Study of Effects of Smoking in Pregnant Women
Smoking during pregnancy carries considerable dangers to both mother and the unborn baby. Prenatal exposure to maternal cigarette smoking (PEMCS) is linked, therefore, with many different obstetric complications such as an augmented danger of ectopic pregnancy, fetal development limitation, placental previa and abruption, preterm premature rip apart of the membranes, preterm delivery, unexpected newborn death syndrome, and oral facial clefts among others. Despite these risks, women still smoke during pregnancy. There is, therefore, a great need to develop policies and interventions such as discovering what can help the women to cease smoking, in order to reduce these risks. As such, alternatives such as the use of electronic cigarettes can be introduced to the pregnant smokers. Treatment for smoking can also be offered to women during pregnancy.
Background
The following section will discuss the background of the topic. Smoking during pregnancy exposes the mother and unborn child to great risks. Prenatal exposure to maternal cigarette smoking (PEMCS) is linked, therefore, with many different obstetric complications. According to Bauld (2017), the complications could range from an augmented danger of ectopic pregnancy, fetal development limitation, placental previa and abruption, preterm premature rip apart of the membranes, preterm delivery, unexpected newborn death syndrome, and oral facial clefts. Anblagan et al., (2013) includes more risks such as the development of respiratory diseases, gestational bleeding, obesity and obesity associated disorders like cardiovascular as well as diabetes results that start when the child reaches puberty. However, intrauterine growth restriction is the most common of them all. Considering all these risks and the fact that women who smoke carry on with this habit during pregnancy, there is a great need to develop policies and interventions that would address this matter. As such, there is need to discover what can be given to these women to help in cessation. General Problem Statement
The general problem is that there are limited researches that detail about smoking patterns in pregnant women. A research by Eiden et al., (2013) indicates a shifting trajectory in pregnant smokers and major changes in due course within each trajectory. This element is important as it has the prospective to notify timing of smoking cessation intervention. Specific Problem Statement
The specific problem is that there is little information about the stability of cessation efforts on the elements that distinguish women who effectively minimize smoking during their pregnancy in comparison to the persistent smokers who stop later in pregnancy. For example, little is known about low-income expectant smokers’ demographic factors such as monetary challenges, p.

Explain the role of health education in health promotion. How is the nursing process used in developing health education? Describe a contemporary issue, local or global, that a family may experience today. What steps would the nurse take to address these as part of a health education plan?
The role of health education in health promotion is vital. Health promotion by definition is “educating people about healthy lifestyles, reduction of risk, developmental needs, activities of daily living (ADL’s) and preventive self-care.” (Whitney et al., 2018). In order to live a healthy lifestyle an individual must know what a “healthy lifestyle” consists of. The same goes for reducing risks, ADL’s, preventative self-care and developmental needs. It is important for the healthcare professional or in our case, the nurse, to educate an individual continuously for the duration of the patient's care with the nurse. They should be educated on what the medications are that they are being given, as well as why it is being administered, dosage, route etc. For example, patients always want to know why they are getting Lovenox or Protonix when they have not taken it before. They should also be educated on diet choices, at the hospital that I work at, sometimes the patients will be placed on certain diets like nothing by mouth (NPO), American Diabetes Association (ADA), renal, heart healthy, low potassium etc., and they state that they do not have diet restrictions at home, so they have to be educated on why they were placed on the diet and they should consider this type of diet once discharged.
The nursing process is used in developing health education because the nurse must assess the patient. This assessment is not only a head to toe assessment, but the nurse must also determine the patients needs, readiness to learn and the patient's ability and desire to actively engage in their plan of care and meeting goals. Then the nurse makes their nursing diagnoses, for example is their non-compliance evident, immobility, learning deficit etc. The nurse then develops a plan of care and action that can be made with the patient and begins to implement the plan of care. The nurse and patient evaluate how well they are meeting their care goals and continue to develop a plan that changes to the patients needs and better assists with meeting goals. Throughout the whole process the nurse is educating the patient on what the problem is preventing the patient from getting better and then the nurse educates the patient on how they can work towards solving that problem.
A contemporary issue that a family may experience today is the issue of vaccination. There is a lot of information out there that is telling parents to not vaccinate their children. However, recently there was an issue with a measles outbreak in New York where I live, as well as some other states. In the media there became this discussion about the importance of vaccinating your children, not only for the.

Introduction to Quality Improvement Essentials
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdf
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

- 1. Reply to Hollie Question 1—Preconception Counseling Preconception care has been around since the 1980s, however, a recent push across many nationally recognized professional practices, including the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP), has been occurring (AAFP, 2015). This is largely due to the high rate of infant mortality, premature births, birth defects, and maternal deaths in the United States (AAFP, 2015). Preconception care refers is defined as: “individualized care for men and women that is focused on reducing maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality, increasing the chances of conception when pregnancy is desired, and providing contraceptive counseling to help prevent unintended pregnancies” (AAFP, 2015, para. 1). The AAFP is pushing for family practice health care providers to play a larger role in preconception care to help improve the current statistics. As a future family nurse practitioner, I do not anticipate seeing a large population of women seeking maternity care; however, as the AAFP points out, family practice providers are the most frequent providers of ambulatory primary care services to women aged 18 to 44 (AAFP, 2015). This puts family care providers in a prime position to do the majority of the preconception interventions. Preconception interventions can occur during routine well- woman examinations and should include identifying childbearing goals, screening for risks that can impact pregnancies, and assisting women in making healthy changes before becoming pregnant. There are a number of important topics to discuss during preconception counseling. I will utilize the most current, evidence-based guidelines available when providing preconception counseling to a woman who is planning a pregnancy. At this time, I would plan to discuss the following: reproductive and pregnancy goals; nutrition (especially folic acid); contraception; weight concerns; family and genetic history; management of chronic diseases; medication use; smoking cessation; avoiding alcohol; avoiding other drugs; eliminating toxin exposures; updating immunizations if needed; screening for sexually transmitted infections; and screening for abuse (Fowler & Jack, 2018). These are all important topics to discuss, because they have an impact on fetal and maternal health. For women in the interconception phase, it is important that they be counseled on healthy pregnancy intervals (Fowler & Jack, 2018). For instance, short interval pregnancies of less than 18 months are associated with high rates of preterm births, premature rupture of membranes, maternal morbidity and mortality, third trimester bleeding, anemia, and myometritis (Fowler & Jack, 2018).ReferencesAmerican Academy of Family Physicians.
