The Future of Healthcare in Canada: The Influence and Role of Nurses and Their Professional Groups in the Recommendations in the Romanow Report
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 21 page paper discussing how nursing as a professional group may influence the changes and recommendations in the Romanow report for the future of health care in Canada. On November 28, 2002, Roy Romanow and the Commission on the Future of Health Care in Canada released its final report. This report highlights recommendations in key areas in health care including Medicare; issues in primary health care; prevention and promotion; key measurement tools through the development of the Health Council of Canada; innovation and delivery through information technology; access for rural and remote communities; homecare; prescription drugs; and, Aboriginal health among many other factors and includes funding commitments for these recommendations. The nursing associations across Canada including representatives from the Registered Nurses Association of Ontario (RNAO) and the Canadian Federation of Nurses’ Unions (CFNU) have supported the Romanow Report as a “remarkable blueprint for building Medicare’s second generation and strengthening the public’s access to nurses” as well as the reforms which “will shorten waiting time and improve care” overall. The professional nursing groups have an active interest in all aspects of the Romanow report which not only broadens the roles and responsibilities of the nurses in Canada but increases the number of programs which will be affiliated with nursing. Most important in regards to nurses’ roles in the recommendations of the report are those which relate to measurement outcomes from an administrative and informative approach; those which relate to various commitments to innovations within the industry and primary care access; homecare access; and the new legislation proposed in regards to the entire health human resources. Bibliography lists 17 sources.

The Germ Theory Of Disease And Chiropractic Philosophy Regarding Disease: Mutually Exclusive?
[ send me this essay ]
19 pages in length. Examining whether the germ theory of disease and chiropractic philosophy of disease are compatible or contradictory requires one to consider how Eastern medicine was the mainstay for thousands of years before conventional approaches ever came into existence. The relatively recent resurrection of such alternative concepts as chiropractic revisits the fundamental basis of Eastern medicine, whereby the body's capacity to both injure and repair itself often eclipses the oftentimes invasive nature of modern medicine. This is not to discount the validity of germ theory, however, inasmuch as microorganisms are indeed responsible for myriad diseases in addition to those cultivated by a misaligned spine, illustrating how both concepts are correct in their respective manners and are even beginning to work synergistically as a way to complement the beneficial properties each approach brings toward prevention and treatment of disease. Bibliography lists 20 sources.

The Government Should Provide Support For Stem Cell Research
[ send me this essay ]
3 pages in length. Medical science has long taken the road less traveled when it comes to researching unique - and often controversial - ways to sustain the human species. Life extension, disease control and prevention, artificial body parts, organ transplants and brain surgery are just the tip of the proverbial iceberg with regard to the unfathomable strides medicine has made in the grander scope of technological progress. Clearly these breakthroughs required considerable means of research that may not have always been supported by everyone (animal testing for example), but man has always trumped any debate involving dubious approaches by citing how the superiority of the human race makes these methods justifiable. However, now that people are the experimental basis upon which the relatively new stem cell research occurs, the outcry from opponents as high as the White House have made the pursuit of cord blood research virtually impossible without government support. This hypocritical stance serves to blatantly ignore the true value of stem cell study by effectively holding back the research that will clearly save untold numbers of lives. Bibliography lists 3 sources.
