I really enjoyed The University of Alabama’s version of The Dining Room. It was one of the best plays I’ve ever seen, and I don’t really like plays. The actors, director, and production crew did a very good job of bringing everything together. Everything was on time, the lighting was great, the actors were great, and the entire show was phenomenal. However, out the entire cast one person in particular stood out the most to me. Her name was Mary Catherine Waltman and she played Grace, Peggy, and Sarah which were some of my favorite characters.

On 09-27-2016 at approximately 1310 hours, I, Security Offcier James Argyro A-10280, was dispatched to the security medical station for a employee medical. Upon arrival I made contact with Lisa Bowen A-5954, who stated that she tripped over a bucket behind the bar and landed on her left knee.

Security Shift supervisor Neil Grant A 3079 was notified.
The wait is over. At precisely 12:30 p.m. on September 4, 2015 Father Leahy ceremoniously cut the ribbon to announce the opening of Stayer Hall located at 2150 Commonwealth Avenue. Construction began for this building in summer 14, replacing More Hall. The Mayor of Boston Marty Walsh was even in attendance for the event which shows the excitement surrounding the opening of this grand new residence hall. To give an idea of the size of this new residence hall, it is reported to be about 1.5 times the size of Stokes Hall! This building is a major addition to the Boston College campus, the new RD for the residence hall was quoted as saying “With the opening of this new building, BC has increased its on-campus capacity by 250 beds. This is a significant step towards ensuring all students have the option of living on campus throughout their entire education.” This is a great step in
A restaurant’s success is often dependent on its location. Restaurant’s that are located near other restaurants can enough synergistic benefits due to their location (Parsa, Self, Njite, & King, 2005). However, choosing the wrong location can also spell certain doom for the establishment. In general, restauranteurs must ensure that they are making enough profit to justify the demands put forth by their landlord and the local government. For this reason, the restaurant’s deed or rental agreement is one of the most important document in determining a restaurant’s fate. This paper seeks to examine the issues associated with leasing restaurant property; in particular Harlequin and Brine, an upscale casual restaurant.
There was inappropriate staffing in the Emergency Room which was a factor in the event. There was one registered nurse (RN) and one licensed practical nurse (LPN) on duty at the time of the incident. Additional staff was available and not called in. The Emergency Nurses Association holds the position there should be two registered nurses whose responsibility is to prov...
As the EAI team was discussing Molly’s case, one of the ED Residents made a few telephone calls. Molly’s PCP reported that during her last visit about 2 weeks ago, Mollie was alert and able to respond to questions appropriately. He confirmed that Mollie’s daughter and son in law have experienced psychiatric problems, adding that the son in law has expressed anger regarding Mollie’s living arrangements. The home health care agency was contacted. The RN and aide both report they have never met the son in law and have had very limited contact with Mollie’s daughter. When contacted by telephone, the daughter provided no explanation for Mollie’s extensive bruises noted on admission to the hospital. The daughter stated that Mollie did not fall, but in fact lowered herself to the floor in an effort to draw

Mary (name has been changed for confidentiality) is a combative and aggressive resident. Due to Mary’s violent behavior, she receives careless and inadequate care from the nursing assistants in our memory care unit. When I first worked with Mary, she was being held by her arms and legs. This was necessary to successfully clean her up because she hits and grabs anyone who tries to assist her. Despite being pressured to hurry, I was careful to make sure I communicated everything that I was doing to her. I saw that her expression spoke fierceness, but her eyes spoke sorrow. Her actions were the result of her severe dementia, and it was important to me that I treated her as a human being. While she was defined as a two person assist, I discovered
Combat dining inns is a great way to build morale within a core. Although they can get very messy it is also a lot of fun. A combat dining inn is an event that is made to bring a unit together. During this event you will overcome obstacles as a team. The way it is set up is that when you get to the location of the combat dining inn you will be wearing your mess dress or bdu. After everybody has signed in you will be split up into teams. Each team will have one flight sergeant and one flight commander. When those two people are chosen at that moment you will then proceed outside. Once outside you will get into formation and march to where the obstacles course will be held. At this moment you will get in formation with your flight and then begin the obstacle courses.
The early days of Uris Hall’s dormitory kitchen were characterized by excellent food and a content, tight-knit staff. The employees’ feelings of satisfaction and utmost commitment to their jobs are best explained using Herzberg’s Motivator-Hygiene Model. This motivation theory relies on the assumption that satisfaction and dissatisfaction in the workplace are independent of each other, and a different set of factors is responsible for causing each emotion. One motivating factor is the employees’ sense of achievement in their work. The case stresses that the eleven women who worked in the kitchen felt a consistent sense of pride in their labor; they went to great lengths to ensure superior quality
In 1968, Lenoir Dining Hall at UNC Chapel Hill served food to nearly 2,000 students and faculty a day. The lunch ladies managing the cafeteria worked through long hours, short wages and demeaning work conditions. Though state workers, the food workers were neither represented by a union nor were their grievances acknowledged by their oppressive supervisors. Food service was tough enough for food workers at the university because students and faculty did not typically regard the non-faculty employees with much respect or recognition. This lack of respect or recognition was amplified by high racial tensions of the Civil Rights era and the reality that most non-faculty employees were African Americans serving a predominantly white student population.
This story shows what happens when there is a break down in multiple areas of health care, including communication, the nursing process, and patient advocacy. As a new nurse, this case is important to hear and to learn from. It teaches us that patient centered care means listening to the patient or the family when they say something is wrong because they know themselves and/or the patient better than the staff. Even if the cause is not obvious, there is a need to follow through with your instincts or gut feeling when something doesn't seem right. A personal example that I recently had to learn from was when a resident was not as active as she had been. I was told in shift report that she had a weight gain. I wanted to send her to the hospital, but a more experienced nursing supervisor told me it was unnecessary and that the doctor would be in the following day to see her. She was seen the following day and there were no new orders for her. I ignored the feeling that something was not right with her because the doctor had cleared her. With in a week, she was sent out to the hospital and diagnosed with a CVA and CHF and returned to us with a new status as a DNR and put on hospice. From this I learned that it does not matter how much experience others may have, I need to trust in myself and my judgment. Since this event, I made the decision to send out one of my residents
