...home after the previous governess died. Douglas begins to read from the written record, and the story shifts to the governess’s point of view as she narrates her strange experience. The governess begins her story with her first day at Bly, the country home, where she meets Flora and a maid named Mrs. Grose. The governess is nervous but feels relieved by Flora’s beauty and charm. The next day she receives a letter from her employer, which contains a letter from Miles’s headmaster saying that Miles cannot return to school. The letter does not specify what Miles has done to deserve expulsion, and, alarmed, the governess questions Mrs. Grose about it. Mrs. Grose admits that Miles has on occasion been bad, but only in the ways boys ought to be. The governess is reassured as she drives to meet Miles. One evening, as the governess strolls around the grounds, she sees a strange man in a tower of the house and exchanges an intense stare with him. She says nothing to Mrs. Grose. Later, she catches the same man glaring into the dining-room window, and she rushes outside to investigate. The man is gone, and the governess looks into the window from outside. Her image in the window frightens Mrs. Grose, who has just walked into the room....

...May I beg that you will write at once to the mother of this unfortunate woman--to Mrs. Catherick--to ask for her testimony in support of the explanation which I have just offered to you?" I saw Miss Halcombe change colour, and look a little uneasy. Sir Percival's suggestion, politely as it was expressed, appeared to her, as it appeared to me, to point very delicately at the hesitation which her manner had betrayed a moment or two since. I hope, Sir Percival, you don't do me the injustice to suppose that I distrust you," she said quickly. "Certainly not, Miss Halcombe. I make my proposal purely as an act of attention to YOU. Will you excuse my obstinacy if I still venture to press it?" He walked to the writing-table as he spoke, drew a chair to it, and opened the paper case. "Let me beg you to write the note," he said, "as a favour to ME. It need not occupy you more than a few minutes. You have only to ask Mrs. Catherick two questions. First, if her daughter was placed in the Asylum with her knowledge and approval. Secondly, if the share I took in the matter was such as to merit the expression of her gratitude towards myself? Mr. Gilmore's mind is at ease on this unpleasant subject, and your mind is at ease—pray set my mind at ease also by writing the note." "You oblige me to grant your request, Sir Percival, when I would much rather refuse it." With those words Miss Halcombe rose from her place and went to the writing-table. Sir Percival thanked her, handed her a...

...He went to where Miss Mijares sat, a tall, big man, walking with an economy of movement, graceful and light, a man who knew his body and used it well. He sat in the low chair worn decrepit by countless other interviewers and laid all ten fingerprints carefully on the edge of her desk. She pushed a sheet towards him, rolling a pencil along with it. While he read the question and wrote down his answers, she glanced at her watch and saw that it was ten. "I shall be coming back quickly," she said, speaking distinctly in the dialect (you were never sure about these people on their first visit, if they could speak English, or even write at all, the poor were always proud and to use the dialect with them was an act of charity), "you will wait for me." As she walked to the cafeteria, Miss Mijares thought how she could easily have said, Please wait for me, or will you wait for me? But years of working for the placement section had dulled the edges of her instinct for courtesy. She spoke now peremtorily, with an abruptness she knew annoyed the people about her. When she talked with the jobless across her desk, asking them the damning questions that completed their humiliation, watching pale tongues run over dry lips, dirt crusted handkerchiefs flutter in trembling hands, she was filled with an impatience she could not understand. Sign here, she had said thousands of times, pushing the familiar form across, her finger held to a line, feeling the impatience grow at sight of the man...

...Article 86 of the Uniform Code Of Military Justice. This Article covers Point and Place of Duty. That means from PT formation to COB that is where you will be. What a lot of Soldiers do not understand that includes appointments made by them or someone else. We have appointment times, SP times, formation times and many other start times that dictate we will be there. If a Convoy has an SP time of fifteen hundred hours and the Soldiers decide to show up late because they did not feel like getting ready on time people could die. If they rolled out on time, they may have avoided the ambush or avoided the Vbid that hit them in the bottleneck. It sounds extreme but time management plays a critical role in the Army. When you make an appointment that spot has been reserved for you. That means if you have been given the last slot someone else is going to have to wait for another one to open up. This could be one day or one month. And because you missed it someone else is still going to have to wait when they could have had that spot and been there. If you are going to miss the appointment or cannot make it due to mission they do allow us to cancel the appointment with in twenty four hours. The Army allows us to make appointments for whatever we need. Be it for a medical appointment, house goods, CIF, Smoking Sensation or whatever we need these recourses are available to us. But when Soldiers start missing appointments theses systems start to become inefficient. What a lot of Soldiers do...

...people occurs throughout the United States in every doctors office, hospital, dentist office, nursing homes, home health services, and chemical plants. The communication strategies between the patient and doctor are very important. One simple and basic law for communication among different cultures, genders, and races is that people who are alike tend to communicate better with each other. Over the years of research, studies have shown that individuals with different nationalities tend to communicate less with each other. An example of a difficult communication scenario can be found in a hospital or doctors office. In this particular communication scenario or situation, the intelligent doctor with high status has to relay information to an individual with little or no knowledge of medical terms. In most cases, the doctor finds himself or herself in a difficult situation trying to communicate verbally the diagnosis to a less educated individual. Individuals with high education levels would most likely understand the doctor’s diagnoses. Researchers state that the misunderstanding between the patient and doctor occurs at three levels. The first level of low socioeconomic patient status occurs when the patient have asked little question about his or her condition. Also at this particular level, the patient reveals little or no information about his or her conditions. The second level of socioeconomic patient status occurs when the doctor does not involve the patient in the decision to...

...Cataract Surgery Experience at Vasan Eye Care Blurred vision had become a way of life for Mrs. Chitra Mehra for the past few years. Having a medical history of high blood pressure and diabetes none of the doctors in her city ever agreed to operate on her. Recently she came to stay with her daughter and son-in-law. Seeing her suffer they decided to consult an eye specialist. They took her to the city’s leading eye specialist. The doctor informed them that she had cataract which was in advance stage and any delay in surgery may lead to permanent blindness. The doctor’s words came as a shock for all of them. They decided to go for a second opinion. Panic-struck they started looking for eye care centers in their city. Finally they decided to approach Vasan Eye Care. The hospital had a brand image and had recently opened its branch very near to their place of residence. As soon as they entered, the front desk staff welcomed them with a warm smile. Mrs. Chitra was registered by the staff and was escorted by another staff for consulting the doctor. Meanwhile her daughter talked to a few patients who were recently operated at the center. Most of them were happy and satisfied with the services of the hospital. The doctors and other medical staff were very caring as portrayed in their advertisement. Mrs. Chitra had to undergo a couple of tests to find out the actual status. After the test the doctor advised her to go for the surgery. He assured the family members that it was a very simple...

... In order to obtain a judgment of negligence against a doctor the patient has to be able to show all four D’s in the case. In the case Hall v. Hilbun, Mrs. Hall was the patient and Dr. Hilbun was her surgeon. Duty is the responsibility that a doctor has to a patient. A patient has to prove that a relationship with the doctor has been established. In the case Hall v. Hilbun there was a relationship established when Mrs. Hall was admitted to the Singing River Hospital complaining of discomfort in her abdomen, and Dr. Hilbun was asked to examine her. On examination, Mrs. Hall was told by Dr. Hilbun that the pain was probably from a small bowel obstruction and that she would need surgery to fix it. Dereliction of duty is when a doctor doesn’t act as another ordinary doctor would under the same circumstances. To prove dereliction of duty, a patient would have to prove that the doctor’s performance or treatment was not up to par with the acceptable standard of care. After surgery, at 1:35 pm, Mrs. Hall was moved to the recovery room where Dr. Hilbun monitored her until 2:50 pm. Everything seemed fine at the time and Mrs. Hall was moved to a private room. After that Dr. Hilbun made no follow ups with Mrs. Hall or ask about her anytime after. He wasn’t in contact with Mrs. Hall until 5:00 the next morning when Mr. Hall called him. It was already too late, and Mrs. Hall had already passed away. Direct cause is the continuous...

Setting: In a little district west of Washington Square Plot: Conflict: Sue’s roommate, Johnsy, was sick in the hospital. She was diagnosed with Pneumonia. Climax: The doctor told Sue that Johnsy had a one out of ten chance for living, but Sue remained hopeful. Johnsy was determined that she would die when the last leaf of the ivy vine fell. Sue kept on encouraging her, telling her that all she spoke of was nonsense, and that she should just pray for her health to regain. The wind blew hard, and the rain poured, but the last leaf still remained, dangling bravely on the thin, wet branch. Meanwhile, Mr. Behrman, an old painter, poses for Sue’s new sketch. He always talked about his newest masterpiece, but he never manages to finish them all the way. Lesson or Moral of the Story: Never give up nor lose hope.

...about is Mrs. Mallard a wife of a man who works at a railroad; it is also known that she has a heart disease. We also hear about her sister, Josephine who had to break the news to Mrs. Mallard about her husband’s supposed death, the last character is Mr. Mallards friend named Richards, who seems to be with Josephine just for moral support and to be there if anything were to happen. The setting took place in Mr. and Mrs. Mallards house when Josephine went to break the news “in broken sentences” to her about the railroad accident that happened and seemed to cause the life of Mr. Mallard. The story is told in third person, and it only takes an hour or less to find out what really happened at the railroads. After she had heard of the disaster that had happened back at the railroads she started to cry on her sisters shoulders. She was paralyzed at the fact that her husband had died she was in a huge shock and did not expect such news. The story then goes on talking about depression “There was something coming to her and she was waiting for it, fearfully. What was it? She did not know” I believe that what was coming to her was a depression that she had never felt before. Mrs. Mallard’s felt guilt mostly because she realized that she had taken her husband for granted. Also, by taking her husband for granted, she felt like there wasn’t anything else to life and all she can do is weep and be ashamed of herself. After reading the body of this short story I started feeling bad for Mrs. Mallard...

...it would be best from his health, and Andrey Yefimich had agreed reluctantly. Mikhail Averyanich first heard about Gregor from an acquaintance living in the Samsas’ neighborhood after three boarders had left the Samsas’ residence because of what they referred to as inhabitable conditions due to an outrageous housemate. Gregor stared curiously up at the doctor, wondering who had decided to call him in. He decided the practical thing would be to first introduce himself. “Hello, doctor. Good to see you,” Gregor clicked. Andrey Yefimich looked startled for a moment and then peered closer at Gregor. Gregor stood perfectly still so as not to scare him. He considered backing up a few steps but then realized he might come across as frightened instead of wary. As much as he wished to lessen the doctor’s discomfort, he didn’t want to create the impression of being a frightened insect that would skitter away at the slightest move. After all, here was the first person to come so close to him, willingly and unrepulsed. “Is he trying to communicate?” Andrey Yefimich asked Mr. Samsa, never taking his eyes off the subject. Mr. Samsa let out a snort of disbelief, the suddenness of which caused Gregor to involuntarily jump slightly, then glared at Gregor as though his movement had been a sin. Gregor looked up at his father pitifully, the rotting apple still embedded in his back, and thought, “I must have frightened him again.” So he resolved to stay...
