...Recently, we have decided to induct a new member into the Hispanic Scholarship Fund Alumni Hall of Fame. Two days ago, forty six year old, Kariahna Gamblin, became the first ever Hispanic female Secretary General of the United Nations. This is a great accomplishment and we as a committee have decided that it is in our best interest to allow her admittance into our society’s hall of fame. Kariahna Gamblin was born to Renee and Christopher Gamblin in Lewiston, Maine on June sixth of the year 2000. Her great grandmother on her mother’s side was born and raised in Colombia. After being forced out by her family, she settled with a young German man, eight years her junior. Though Kariahna lived in a military family and often moved, she remained...

Part 1: Health Care Hall of Fame Museum Proposal | Description | Analysis (How does the development affect the current U.S. health care system?) | | Smallpox was a world wide epidemic that was so major it caused the fall of some empires. The fatality rate was 60% in adults, and 80-98% in infants. (Baylor University, 2005). Edward Jennings found a solution for a smallpox vaccination in 1796. He took the lesions from a lady who had cowpox and injected it into a young boy who had smallpox. The young boy was cured of the disease within 9 days. This made Edward Jennings realize...

...Running head: RUP1 PROJECT 1 RUP1 Project Constance Tate Western Governers University A. Functional Differences The functional differences between the Oregon State Board of Nurses (OSBN) and the American Nursing Association (ANA) are varied. The State Board of Nurses is a body of nine individuals chosen by the Governor, only four of whom are Registered Nurses, and one is a nurse practitioner (Oregon State Board of Nursing, n.d.). Some of the things the Board is responsible for is the issuing and renewing of all medical licenses for nurse practitioners, registered nurses, licensed vocational nurses, and certified nursing assistants. The Board represents all the licensed nurses in the state. The Board also interprets the Nurse Practice Act and evaluates and approves nursing education programs, as well as investigates complaints and takes disciplinary action for wrong doings of nurses (Oregon State Board of Nursing, n.d.). I feel that the Nurse Practice Act written by the OSBN, is a very important body of laws. “These rules have the effect of law and help define safe and competent practice.” (Oregon.gov, n.d.) It entails guidelines to govern my practice: it covers the laws that direct how I would conduct my self in a delegation situation, how I renew my license, how I would report illegal activity and to whom, how I should ensure my legal safety when accepting assignments and floating...

...To be inducted into the Hall of Fame, these people must have exhibited extraordinary qualities such as courage, perseverance, or resilience to name a few. Many groups of people in the Progressive Era deserve to be in the Hall of Fame, but only 6 will get recognition. A fewer number of people deserve to be in the Hall of Shame. Those people were greedy and cared more about money than the welfare of their workers. The Progressive Era was a time of change and reform for women, inventions, and working conditions. It was a time where change needed to occur and with the erroneous behavior of some, a transformation was brought around. Suffragists are the most passionate, determined people who were constantly being discouraged by nonbelievers. Margaret...

...Health Care Museum Tamecka Peterson HCS/235 May 17, 2014 Crystal Frankart Health Care Museum Since the early eighteen hundreds a lot has changed in health care. During this time and age women were the primary caregivers. Domestic medicine also so known as physicians treated the serious cases. As the Health Care Hall of Fame Museum curator I would integrate several exhibits that have changed health care. Midwives Midwifery has been a long standing practice for women as childbirth was something that normally took place at home. In the 15th and 16th century midwifes were thought of as “the early companions of the devil” (The Witchammer, 1487). These women had not been compliant with the Frankfurt Midwifery Code which had been established by the Catholic Church and had been in effect for over 130 years. As a consequence of this, these individuals were burned alive. Midwifery became established in the early 18th and 19th century in Europe. They were trained to be both nurses as well as midwifes. In the absence of a physician, during the first 250 years midwifes were at the front end of the birthing process. Immigrant women who had learned the trade in their country of origin had learned the trade and passed their learning’s and skills to midwife of a younger generation. Thus there were two types of midwifes that developed in the US. One was a Nurse-midwife which are trained in nursing and midwifery as well as Direct Entry Midwives which would not be nurses...

...Truly Not a Dummy If William Ellsworth Hoy were playing today, he would not be called "Dummy"--not by players nor by fans nor by the media. He'd be "Bill" or "Billy," perhaps "Will" or "Willie," maybe even "Ellie." He wouldn't be a deaf mute, either. He'd be "aurally and vocally challenged." But back when Hoy was playing, nicknames were descriptive, often to the point of cruelty. To Hoy, his condition wasn't an excuse; it was what it was. Indeed, he referred to himself as "Dummy" and politely corrected those who, for whatever reason, called him "William." Hoy would have been an exceptional man with or without his handicap. After his baseball career was over, he used his celebrity status to foster the needs and concerns of the deaf. He had a zest for life and once walked 72 blocks at the age of 80 to see his son, Judge Carson Hoy preside in court. At that advanced age he also danced the Charleston and pruned trees on his farm. William Ellsworth Hoy was born in Houcktown, Ohio, on May 23, 1862. His parents, Rebecca Hoffman and Jacob Hoy, were of English-German and Scottish stock and had a farm in Houcktown. William had three brothers, Smith, Frank, and John, as well as sister Ora. Contracting meningitis when he was three years old left William deaf and mute. Hoy entered the Ohio School for the Deaf in 1872, graduating in 1879. Highly intelligent and hardworking, he was valedictorian of his high school class. In those days many deaf people were either employed or self-employed...

...Health care has always been a growing industry from discovering new illnesses and new vaccines. I will create a Health Care Hall of Fame Museum. In this museum I will have five exhibits that have changed health care, which include: the discovery of germs, vaccines, surgery, childbirth, and Medicare. I will give a brief description of each exhibit and their role in health care. Germs Louis Pasteur, born in Dole, a small town in eastern France had an interest in scientific subjects. In 1847, he received his doctoral degree. Pasteur believed that if germs were the cause of fermentation they could also be the cause of contagious diseases. He began to develop the Germ Theory of Disease, and eventually, developed vaccinations. In 1881, Pasteur successfully developed and introduced to the public his anthrax vaccine. In 1855, He launched one of his most famous developments – a vaccine against rabies. Soon after the vaccines were tested and were successful, the Pasteur Institute was built in Paris to treat victims with rabies and other diseases. Vaccines Vaccines in the United States, Edward Jenner created the world’s first vaccine for smallpox. Edward Jenner, worked in a rural society most of his patients were farmers or worked on farms. In 1796 he created the world’s first vaccine for smallpox. In the 18th century smallpox as one of the most deadliest and persistent human diseases. The main treatment developed by Jan Ingenhaus, involved scratching the vein of a healthy person...

...needs. The purpose of Nursing : She described the nurse's role as substitutive (doing for the person), supplementary (helping the person), complementary (working with the person), with the goal of helping the person become as independent as possible "The unique function of the nurse is to assist the individual, sick or well, in the performance of those activities contributing to health or its recovery (or to peaceful death) that he would perform unaided if he had the necessary strength, will or knowledge. And to do this in such a way as to help him gain independence as rapidly as possible" (Henderson, 1966). What is the context of the development of this theory? The influence of nursing concepts from Nightingale's era that had buoyed the profession for over ninety years; cleanliness, nutrition, ventilation, order, etc., had outlived their usefulness with the advent of antibiotics and short hospital stays. Henderson revised the Bertha Harmers textbook of Principles and practice of Nursing which was published in 1939. This description of nursing concluded with the objective for giving nursing care; to help the individual be free of help as rapidly as possible. The textbook was used uniformly...

...organizations as serving religious, educational, charitable, scientific, and literary purposes. This broad definition encompasses a wide variety of organizations — from those conducting medical research to those providing free legal services to low-income families to those preserving historic sites. It also includes corporations and foundations founded to support such activities. We’ve organized a quick overview of categories and kinds of activities. Arts, culture, and humanities This category probably makes you think of museums and concert halls. You’re right, but that’s not all. They belong here along with these organizations: * Organizations and activities that further enjoyment and understanding of all kinds of arts * Media and communications organizations * Groups furthering the understanding of history and genealogy * Halls of fame * Historic preservation * Organizations offering services to artists, writers, and performers * Organizations for the training and education of artists, writers, and performers Did you think of heredity-based organizations (such as Sons of the Revolution or Daughters of the Confederacy)? They belong here, too — along with nonprofit circuses! Education You thought schools belonged in the education category, and you were right. This category is made up of formally constituted educational institutions...
