Nursing Intervention for Family Violence
[ send me this paper ]
A 9 page paper discussing issues affecting nurses’ ability to intervene in domestic violence issues. As those who are trained in physical needs and spend the greatest amount of time in direct contact with patients, nurses occupy perhaps the best associated position from which to intervene in domestic violence. There are barriers of course, but the emergence of forensic nursing is helping to lessen those barriers. Nurses in all areas of healthcare can develop greater awareness to the signs of abuse. There still is a fine ethical line in that nurses cannot blatantly violate confidentiality. Nurses can, however, become proficient at collecting samples, taking notes and asking the right questions of the right people, always keeping the good of the patient as the uppermost goal. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

Osteoporosis And Exercise: Potential For Injury
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Along with a proper diet and adequate rest, exercise is one of the most vital components of a healthful body. Indeed, exercise has become the watchword for optimum health in this ever-conscious society. Yet one cannot help but wonder if too much rigorous exercise has the potential of actually damaging the body. For example, a female marathon runner might be doing her body well by avoiding the inherent risks of osteoporosis; however, if the athlete already has the disease to some extent, how does exercise detrimentally impact her condition over a long-term
basis? When one considers the fact that osteoporosis is a bone disease that causes bones to thin and weaken, eventually becoming so brittle they break from even minor injuries, it is easy to understand why the endurance level of a marathon runner – along with the level of strenuous exercise – could indicate serious injury. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Partial Birth Abortions
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Considered by some to be nothing more than a veiled lack of responsibility, partial birth abortions have come to the forefront of controversy. As if abortion, in and of itself, was not a hot enough issue for debate, both the procedure and reasoning behind partial birth abortion are under fire. Women whose fetuses have known birth defects most commonly utilize this highly invasive procedure as a means by which to terminate the late-term pregnancy. After the baby is purposely turned in the breach position, the doctor pulls it down through the birth canal until the only part left inside the mother's body is the head, which legally maintains its fetus status. The brain is then suctioned out and the skull crushed before the body is completely expelled. Indeed, the primary arguments about this particular procedure revolve around the status of personhood, as well as the reasons to even employ such a horrific alternative. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
