Historical Factors Influencing Australian Contemporary Nursing

2008-06-14T04:08:00.000+10:00

An essay I wrote during my nursing degree===Contemporary nursing in Australia has gone through many phases. Nursing was initially a vocation based on religious values, humanism, self-devotion and sacrifice. The fundamental Nightingale system was based on female virtues, emphasis on discipline and displacement of men (Godden and Forsyth, 2000).Although the practice has evolved, the public image of

Some causes of constipation

2008-06-14T04:07:00.000+10:00

Inhibited intestinal motility causes repeated absorption of water, producing dry and hard stools as little water is left to soften and lubricate the stools (Crisp & Taylor, 2001).This causes the affected individual to strain when defecating and can lead to hemorrhoid. The distended bowel gives a feeling of abdominal fullness and discomfort (Partridge & Smith, 1987).Hardened fecal material that is

The process of food digestion

2008-06-14T04:06:00.000+10:00

Mouth and Salivary OrgansDigestion starts at the mouth where ingestion and chewing occur to reduce food size. Saliva is secreted to enable taste sensation and foodstuff lubrication. Digestion of carbohydrate begins, facilitated by salivary amylase enzyme. Carbohydrate is hydrolyzed from polysaccharides into disaccharides. Lysozyme, which acts as an antibiotic agent, is also secreted.Deglutition

Dating and the amusement park

2008-04-05T17:55:00.000+11:00

I think that dating is like spending a day in an amusement park. There are so many rides, so many activitities to do, so many planning, so many people, so much time wasted on the trip and queuing. Ultimately, we either go home exhausted but happy or dreadfully terrified of all the buzz the park has to offer. Two rides that I think can represent my view on this topic are the roller coaster and

Love and Vivi

2008-04-05T14:28:00.001+11:00

I was having a discussion with a couple of friends about love. Is it simple or is it complicated? Is it hard or is it easy? What is love? When people say that first love never dies, do you think it’s true?I think it is. First love or past loves will always have a place in your heart but not necessarily the one that you focus your attention, feeling, sacrifices and decisions on.For me, past loves

My heart would rather claim amnesia but my logic loops through undignified reality. Sorrow and happiness mingle inside a crowded space.

I have a lot of insecurities but also confidence at the same time. I appear confident because I choose to be. Although, I know that if I let myself dwell in it, my insecurity will rob away my happiness and ability

I have been through depression. I was diagnosed with it by my GP. Depression was something that is hard to understand and I blamed myself for getting into it. But then I realized that it just happened to me.I used my faith to get me through it and it might work for others, or it may not.
