...In this assignment I will be explaining the main aspects of the main theories of ageing. These include; sociological, psychological and biological theories of ageing. I will then go on to compare 2 theories of ageing. Sociological Theories Sociological theories focus on the changing roles and relationships that accompany ageing. These theories discuss how these changing roles, relationships, and status impact the older individual's ability to adapt. In this blog, we will discuss the following sociological theories: disengagement, activity, and continuity. Disengagement Theory The Disengagement Theory, one of the earliest and most controversial theories of aging, views aging as a process of gradual withdrawal between society and the older adult. This mutual withdrawal or disengagement is a natural, acceptable, and universal process that accompanies growing old. It is applicable to elders in all cultures, although there might be variations. According to this theory, disengagement benefits both the older population and the social system. Gradual withdrawal from society and relationships preserves social equilibrium and promotes self-reflection for elders who are freed from societal roles. It furnishes an orderly means for the transfer of knowledge, capital, and power from the older generation to the young. It makes it possible for society to continue functioning after valuable older members die. Weakness: There is no base of evidence or research to support this theory...

...The best methodologies, in my opinion, for the Project Stock would be Network Flow Diagram and Project Software. Using Network Flow Diagram will help ShoeRUs to visualize and understand how the project will work and proceed. This diagram will also display the link with all the components of the project. (Network Diagram, 2015) One more strength of this methodology is that the format of this diagram will make it easier to determine the flow of the project, where the current project is in its lifecycle and also link of activities taking place during the whole lifecycle. The main aim of this methodology is to enable to create a diagram for the project broken down into smaller tasks which are important for completing the whole project. Another methodology is the Project Software. There are a lot of strengths that comes with this type of methodology. One of its strengths is that it provides the company to evaluate the direction that the project is taking. It also helps the company to revisit every task in the project lifecycle. By doing this, the company will reduce the costs and the time that will take to finalize the project being developed. It also helps the company to build the project as expected. (Miranda Brookins, 2015) For the Project Moving House, I will choose the Budget Methodology and the Schedule Methodology. The Budget methodology will help the family to control the costs of moving their furniture and other personal belongings to their new house. By using this methodology...

...Day 1 Reflection 1/28/2016 Day 1 of my preceptorship in Beverly Hospital Emergency Department, I have been praying to God for weeks prior to beginning of this term that I will be accepted for Beverly Ed, because I have heard a lot of great stories from previous students who went there. And besides, I have been wanting to be placed in the ER because I want to be an ER nurse, I need to be an ER nurse, I AM GONNA BE AN ER NURSE. Soon. So after days of waiting, I finally received a call from Professor Schaffer that I am one of the students who got picked at Beverly ED, I was so happy and excited, that I was crying on the way home in the car, thinking of all the possibilities and the doors of opportunities that will lead me to my dream job. Come 1/28/2016, woke up really early to prepare myself mentally and physically, prayed really hard that I will have a good first day and that my preceptor will be nice enough to me that she would not yell at me for some reason. I prayed hard before I left. My goal for that day was to make a great first impression that they wont forget my name: LALAINE. I got there 520am, with a positive attitude, a big smile on my face and pastries with cream cheese on hand, I waited and introduced myself to the staff and met my preceptor: Felice Fernandez, she was really welcoming and we got along really well to the point that we are sharing stories to each other, I feel welcomed and I feel like I am part of their family. My preceptor and I was assigned at the...

...many experiences with effective communication happened in the early morning of May 28 2012. I was working my shift at Gibson Generating Plant in Indiana. I had just gotten back to my office from a tour of the plant, when I received a call from the operator on Unit 2. He told me that the differential pressure was dropping on the unit. This is used to sense the forced air flow going to the pulverizers where the coal is grounded into a very fine powder. This air is needed to seal the pulverizers and also to transfer the fine dust up to the nozzles to fuel the fire in the boiler. We had issues with this before and had maintenance fix it. Of course, afterwards, I made sure I knew what they did to correct it. Over this holiday weekend there was suppose to be a maintenance person on call. I called him and he said that he was not coming in until morning. It was 1:30 am and I explained to him it needed to be done or we were going to lose the unit. I then called the Plant Manager and told him what was going on and that the pressure was dropping. I explained that it could not wait until this person came in. I already had the drawings and the information on this Transducer for the differential pressure. I told the Plant Manager that I would take care of this if it was ok with him and he said yes. It was understood that we would address this situation in our next production meeting. I called the operator on Unit 2 and told him to get the guys up there in the control room and that I was on my...

...Marginal Productivity Analysis Kenneth Machol ECO 265 January 28, 2013 Christopher Rakovalis Marginal Productivity Analysis MARGINAL PRODUCTIVITY THEORY: A presumption used to study the profit-maximizing amount of inputs (so as to is, the services of feature of productions) obtained through a company into the assembly of amount produced. Marginal-productivity presumption indicates to the command used for a feature of manufacture is based on the marginal result of the issue. In meticulous, a company is usually eager to shell out an elevated cost intended for the input that is extra dynamic and gives extra to productivity. The command for an input is therefore preeminent termed a consequential command. Marginal productivity assumption is a foundation inside the study of feature markets and the input side of short-run creation. It sheds insight into the order for factors of construction based on the vision that a profit-maximizing business hires inputs based on a judgment connecting the productivity of the input and the price of the input. The rule of Diminishing Marginal proceeds a vital code fundamental marginal-productivity presumption is the rule of diminishing marginal takings. This rule says that as added units of a variable input are extra to a set input, ultimately the marginal result of the variable input decreases. This code is a vital part of short-run assembly study, which offers insight into the positively-sloped marginal price bend...
