    1588 Words  | 4 Pages

    At admission, Mollie’s main complaint was right hip pain. She was not oriented to person, place or time, responding with “I don’t know” to questions asked. While the emergency department nurse completed a physical assessment, Molly’s hospital record was retrieved. Molly was discharged from the hospital two weeks ago, having been admitted for dehydration. Her health history was significant for hypertension and diabetes. Her primary care provider and home health care information were included in Mollie’s hospital record, as was her daughter’s contact information. The emergency department performed an x ray to evaluate Mollie’s right hip pain and there was no evidence of a fracture. Per MD order, labs and samples were collected and processed: CBC-diff, CRP, hyperal, blood culture, prealbumin level and urinalysis. Molly was evaluated for sexual assault and the appropriate samples were gathered. The forensic nurse gently scraped material from underneath Mollie’s fingernails. Bruises were measured and age of each bruise was estimated by

  • Dellen Millard Case Analysis Essay

    736 Words  | 2 Pages

    From a psychological standpoint, Dellen Millard’s actions and personality are clearly not typical of the average human. Millard was extremely affluent, yet committed murder in order to steal a car he could have easily bought. ‘Why?’ is the question which psychologists would ask. Millard was raised wealthy, educated, and privileged; he was not abused as a child, nor was he denied affection or care. Unlike many psychopaths, sociopaths, and murderers, Millard did not seem to have a troubled or traumatic life at all. What experiences in Millard’s life could have given rise to his manipulative, thrill-seeking and criminal behaviour- as well as his apparent lack of conscience- in spite of his indulgent and ordinary upbringing? Psychology studies- and attempts to comprehend- human behaviour: the human mind, personality, and thinking. As such, psychologists would find interest in understanding the thoughts and motivation behind Millard’s cold-blooded actions. They might look towards his childhood for answers, and endeavour to discover the events in his past that shaped him to be the person he

  • Case Law Case Study

    Nearly every aspect of law enforcement has a court decision that governs criteria. Most court rulings are the result of civil lawsuit towards a police officer and agency. However, currently, there is no law that mandates law enforcement driver training. When it comes to firearms, negligence by officers has resulted in a multitude of court rulings. Popow v. City of Margate, 1979, is a particularly interesting case that outlines failed firearms training by an agency. In this case, an officer chasing a suspect during a foot pursuit fired at the suspect, striking and killing an innocent bystander (Justia.com, 2017). The court ruled that the agency was “grossly negligent” of “failure to train” (Justia.com, 2017). As a result, nearly every agency requires annual firearms training and has written policy concerning the same. Officers must show proficiency in firearms use every year to maintain their certification. Many states even impose fines on officers for

  • Case Management Reflection Paper

    1198 Words  | 3 Pages

    My understanding of case management comes from an accumulation of lecture, readings, and a little bit of research. At first I thought case management meant to manage a case, which it kind of does, but it is a lot of background work that goes unnoticed from the workers part. One thing for sure I can say about case management is that is a very stressful and demanding job for the worker, therefore, you have to be a responsible worker, so that your client can hopefully get the services and resources he or she may need. As a case management worker your responsibilities are many, for example you are to educate, empower and enable your client to be self sufficient.

    After 6 months of researching constitutional documents, court cases, and academic journals, I have found evidence that both supports and counters my argument, stating that the lack of representation in Washington D.C. and the US Virgin Islands violates the true intent of the United States Constitution. On the topic of my findings regarding constitutional documents, I first looked at documents, written by some of the founding fathers regarding the issue. In the Federalist No. 43, James Madison addresses the federal district known as Washington D.C., and says “as a municipal legislature for local purposes, derived from their own suffrages, will of course be allowed them.” (The Federalist Papers, No. 51) James Madison is referencing the citizens residing in the federal district, and says

    Anderson’s film (2004) tells us that the “client’s” name is Trevor Reznik. He is an unmarried white male, and although unspecified, he appears to be approximately 30-35 years of age. There is no indication of any siblings, no information regarding his father, and while there is evidence of a normal relationship with his mother, she is now deceased (Anderson, 2004). Additionally, Anderson (2004) informs the audience that the client appears to be of average intelligence and was employed as a skilled laborer in a machine shop. He lives alone, and had an ongoing romantic relationship with a prostitute, until an argument resulted in its termination (Anderson, 2004). There does not appear to be any alcohol or substance abuse in the client’s life, he has no real friendships, and relationships with coworkers have become strained over the previous year (Anderson, 2004). An altercation with his employer has resulted in the loss of his job, and the client has also suffered tremendous weight loss over the previous year, in addition to suffering from severe insomnia (Anderson, 2004). One year ago, the client was the driver involved in a hit and run automobile accident, during which a child was killed (Ander...
