Changes in the US Health Care System and Nurses’ Roles
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page paper discussing the state of several aspects of the US health care system and nurses’ roles within both the current system and that which continues to emerge. One of the primary qualities of US health care today is that it is in flux. It has been changing dramatically since the advent of managed care; continued budgetary pressures and the ongoing shortage of nurses dictate that further changes are made in the future. Nursing itself is changing as well, as those who have made nursing their life profession approach retirement age themselves. Those new to health care now face higher career demands than those who went before them. The new generation of nurses will need to be even more adaptable to change and more conversant with technology as it continues to change the face of health care. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Changing Attitudes Regarding Disease, Health and Wellness
[ send me this paper ]
This
6 page report discusses the ways that attitudes have changed
regarding perceptions of disease, health, and wellness. At one
time, virtually all disease was seen as something shameful and
related to some type of lack of character or strength in an
individual. Those beliefs than evolved into an unwavering faith
in modern medicine and the assumption that anything a medical
professional prescribed in terms of drugs or procedures was the
only way to be healthy and physically whole. As a result,
individual belief patterns regarding health and wellness became
based on fear, shame, and treatment rather than on wholeness,
wellness, and personal decision-making. That attitude has begun
to change and it is not a moment too soon. Bibliography lists 6
sources.
