Personal Philosophy of Nursing
[ send me this paper ]
A 3 page essay that offers a template for a student nurse to use in writing about his/her personal nursing philosophy. A nurse’s beliefs “regarding humanity, values, the nature of nursing, the focus of nursing, the goals of practice and the focus of nursing research and education” collectively formulate a personal philosophy of nursing that informs and shapes that particular nurse’s practice behaviors (Courier, 2008). As a medical profession, nursing knowledge draws upon the related scientific fields (CSUB, 2006). However, nursing also goes beyond the medical model of healthcare delivery to stress humanistic, caring qualities that address the emotional, psychological side of human experience, as well as physiological needs. The purpose of the following essay is to provide a guide to a nursing student that can aid that student in describing his or her own personal philosophy of nursing. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

Pets And The Elderly: A Beneficial Relationship
[ send me this paper ]
22 pages in length. In this day and age of ever-increasing technological advancement, there are still some things that cannot be improved upon, such as the inherently beneficial relationship between pets and the elderly. There is no question that animals offer unconditional love and support, which is what most people desperately need when living out the rest of their lives in residential or nursing homes. While this intrinsic bond has long been recognized, it has not been put to medicinal use until quite recently with the advent of therapy animals and in-house pets. The marked difference animals have shown to make in various aspects of elderly patients' lives is astounding, from encouraging speech where none had existed to giving hope to one who has all but lost it. Undoubtedly, pets provide a significant incentive for the elderly to live, if for no other reason than to take the focus off their own failing health and place it upon another loving, receptive being. The writer discusses the benefits that pets have upon the elderly. Bibliography lists 15 sources.
