Many events were unexplainable and maybe even seemed to be magical before
science evolved to what it is today. All questions relating to the origin
of life can be answered scientifically. The creation of the universe and
all events since can be explained. One may question their beliefs based
on scientific theory. Human life can even be broken down to fundamental
theory. Not only geological or biological, but all events can be answered
scientifically.
One^Òs belief in a god or a higher being may help in dealing with the rigors
of life and create a sense of security. All base their lives on some sort
of belief. This belief however is different for everyone. The actions of a
religious person stem from their belief in a god. A person may act morally
and responsibly in hopes that they will receive good judgement upon
departure from this earth. No one can say for certain if there is a heaven
or a hell, but obviously a religious person would rather not go to the later
of the two. This is not to say, that one whom does not believe in a god
does not act morally or responsibly. An atheist^Òs actions do not stem from
the fear of judgement from god but rather from the judgement of society.
Religious and non-religious people alike will most likely base their actions
on their conception of the highest ethical good.
I consider myself to be sort of an existentialist. This encompasses the
scope of individual existence and individual freedom. Life, I believe is
based in its entirety on one goal that is different for everyone. Two
things are ultimately correct, the certainty of death and the
meaninglessness of one^Òs life. Once a person determines his goal, he must
pursue it with a white-hot passion in order for happiness to be obtained.
Camus theory of the ^Óabsurd^Ô is a belief, which I hold very
highly. This theory explains that one will spend every moment of his life
chasing the same goal, which he has set for himself, and that life is in
fact monotonous. In this monotony happiness is reached but can also be
questioned upon the realization of life^Òs meaningless pursuit of one goal.
At moments in everyone^Òs life, they will suddenly become aware of life^Òs
absurdity. To one, life may seem meaningless, but looking at the ^Óbig
picture^Ô life is insignificant. While suffering the knowledge that one^Òs
life is meaningless and entirely monotonous, one must find happiness in
Dressing was chosen according to the availability in the hospital. This would include fatty acids, hydrogels, alginate, collagenase, and pa-pain. Depending on the stage of the pressure ulcer, various products were used such as hydrocolloids, calcium alginate, or chemical debridement. A nutritional evaluation was performed due to its extreme importance for wound recovery. Nurses emphasized the importance of changing the dressing daily during the research. The pressure ulcers were treated accordingly to the guidance of the team applying the dressings. However, air mattresses were used at the same time, and if the patients’ condition is allowed, they were taken from bed to chair.

The residential homes decision makers need to monitor the cares’ behaviour as they and address issues within their working environment to improve and keep everything up to standard. The government need to implement and review their policies to make ensure quality care in residential homes. According to United Kingdom Health and Social Care (UKHCA), (2012) and The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), have been working on introducing new guidance which will help dementia patient to get more funding to live in their own homes and avoid living in residential home which is a positive move as people will still enjoy the comfort of their homes and receive excellent care.

A pressure ulcer is an area of skin with unrelieved pressure resulting in ischemia, cell death, and necrotic tissue. The constant external pressure or rubbing that exceeds the arterial capillary pressure (32mmHg) and impairs local normal blood flow to tissue for an extended period of time, results in pressure ulcer (Smeltzer et. Al., 2013). According to National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel, 2014, pressure ulcers are a major burden to the society, as it approaches $11billion annually, with a cost range from $500 to $70,000 per individual pressure ulcer. It is a significant healthcare problem despite considerable investment in education, training, and prevention equipment. This paper includes two different studies to link cause-effect

A person-centred approach is ensuring that care and support staff do all they can to carry out the wishes of the individual they are supporting. The individual’s needs are the most important thing and everything should be done to support them as they wish.

One’s worldview is usually dependant on how the particular individual interprets life and its occurrences. Additionally, if one believes something to be so, it will be so to them. It’s all a matter of perception. However, which perspective is truly accurate: Agnosticism, Theism, or Deism? These three worldviews have been the subject of countless debates throughout history and that have yet to be concluded. The purpose of this philosophical essay is to suggest that theism is likely to be considered the correct worldview.

“Our sense of self, our sense of humor, our ability to think ahead — gone within the first 10 to 20 seconds” (Shaw, 2017). The afterlife has been questioned so much, especially throughout the thoughts of religion. “Theories abound from logical to irrational, yet there is no concrete evidence about the afterlife.” (Shaw, 2017). The idea of their being an afterlife maybe hard to grasp because it is based on having faith. Due to this, hoping there is a heavenly estate after death is not wrong but there is no significant evidence to supports this idea. Therefore, what waits after death maybe neither heaven nor hell due to the varies influential factors that can contribute to the idea of the afterlife.
Depression is defined as "a state of despondency marked by feelings of powerlessness and hopelessness" (Coon, 2001). Some people can mix up depression with just having the blues because of a couple of bad days or even weeks. It is already said that depression affects about one sixth of the population or more (Doris, Ebmeier, Shajahan, 1999). Depression can happen in any age range from birth to death. The cause of depression is still obscure and becoming clear that a number of diverse factors are likely to be implicated, both genetic and environmental. Some causes are leading stressful lives, genetic factors, a previous depressive episode, and the personality trait neuroticism (Doris, et al., 1999).
FM RJ’s have great influence on youth of Pakistan. New generation is great followers of RJ’s, youth idealize them as an advisor. But RJ’s are spoiling concepts of youth towards language. No doubt English is an international language but the usage of slang version of English is affecting the youth of Pakistan. RJ’s are persuaded to use and speak slang English words instead of Urdu. Consumers who are regular listener of FM are greatly influencing by this perception of using slang words in their language.
Caring for dementia involves a lot of patience and understanding. It should be dealt with audacity and flawlessness to ensure the vulnerable adults’ well-being. Aiding at home or care home required carers to be at their best, physically and emotionally. The responsibility can be distressing but it is rewarding as well since helping dementia adults in their day to day activities is a significant matter for them. However, carers need a pause as over duty can result to substandard nursing. The big question is: who take care for the carers of people with dementia?
