Mexico culture Have you ever been to Mexico and wonder how their culture really is? Here it is from previous experiencing it in real life. I found out how unique Mexico culture is. Mexican have so much pride in their family that they even have a great education program, and in their life style. Mexican people believe that the family sticks together no matter what. In a family there is one person in charge, meaning the father or the man of the house. Also in a family when something has to be decided the man of the house will have the answer,but only he will decide whats best. As a family, they will move ,but the father would have to recommend it. No one in the family can leave without the permission of the father. The man of the house is responsible to make sure that there is food for the family and also to take care of his family, including his own parents. Mexican familis know who is in charge and they stand proud for it. Mexican education has been said to be one grade higher then the United States. (Witch I found to be true in some subjects especially in math.) Mexico’s education is different because you have to pay just to attend school at any grade level. They also get out around 12:45pm. Then about 2:30pm they have to attend this CCD program school. This class is required to attend for five years, and every year they must pass this class to advance to the next grade level in CC...

    It can be related to feelings of hopelessness and lack of meaning, anxiety, decreased ability to concentrate, irritability, insomnia, emotional numbing, lack of empathy, and escapist activities (such a self-medicating with drugs and alcohol). This is in direct opposition to the idea that nurses would be responsive to an insightful of their clients needs. Dennis Portnoy wrote “Compassion fatigue was often triggered by patient care situations in which nurses believed that their actions would “not make a difference” or “never seemed to be enough”. He further elaborated in the article Burnout and compassion Fatigue that nurses who experienced this syndrome also did so because of systemic issues such as; overtime worked, high patient acuity, high patient census, heavy patient assignments, high acuity, overtime and extra workdays, personal issues, lack of energy and lack of experience (Portnoy, 2011). These issues, interfere with the nurses' ability to identify with the patient and to tune in to important issues and obscure symptoms. Once consideration is that nurses can use Orlando’s theory to identify and address their own needs and respond with the same level of consideration to their own needs in order to prevent a burn out

  • Hispanic Cultural Culture

    Child rearing and family structure within the Hispanic culture is noticeably different than what is present in the mainstream Western culture of today. One apparent difference is in gender roles. There exists a vastly different expectation in Hispanic culture for males and females. The male is considered to be the independent breadwinner, and the head of the household. Accordingly, the female role is one of submission and provider of childcare. In contrast, it is more than acceptable in Western culture for a female to maintain a non-traditional role. Hispanic culture additionally differs from Western culture in the traditional makeup of the family. Within Hispanic culture the extended family plays a huge role

  • The Problem of Nursing Burn-Out

    2208 Words  | 5 Pages

    One of the most serious issues in nursing, that can affect a nurses career is nursing burn- out. According to the article “Where have all the nurses gone”, current nurses that are practicing, report high rates of job dissatisfaction (which is part of burn out) and 1 of 5 nurses may quit nursing in the next 5 years (Dworkin, 2002). Burnout is associated with nurses not coming in to work, not feeling satisfied when doing their job, high turnover rates and a lack of commitment to the work (Katisfaraki, 2013). If a nurse becomes burned- out, they may not take care of their patients as well and could make mistakes with medication administration. A study performed in the United States by Dr. Jeannie Cimiottti, shows that hospitals with high burn-out rates among nurses have higher levels UTI’s, and surgical infections (World, 2012). Nursing burnout not only affects the nurse, but it also affects the patient, the nurses’ colleagues, and the nurses’ family; nursing burn out often leads to emotional exhaustion and depression, that can effect relations and communication between the nurse effected and the person they are communicating with. This paper will cover what burn-out is, who is susceptible to burn out, and treatment and prevent nursing burn out.

    Burnout is a highly unusual type of stress disorder that is essentially characterized by emotional exhaustion, lack of empathy with patients, depersonalization, and a reduced sense of personal accomplishments. The nature of the work that healthcare practitioners perform predisposes them to emotional exhaustion. On the other hand, the lack of empathy towards patients is caused by the nurses feeling that they are underpaid and unappreciated. Numerous researches have associated burnout with the increasing rate of nurse turnover. This paper explores the causes of burnouts in nurses as well as what can be done to prevent the them.

    The nursing profession is one of the most physically, emotionally, and mentally taxing career fields. Working long shifts, placing other’s needs before your own, dealing with sickness and death on a regular basis, and working in a high stress environment are all precursors to developing occupational burnout in the nursing profession. Burnout refers to physical, emotional and mental exhaustion, which can lead to an emotionally detached nurse, who feels hopeless, apathetic, and unmotivated. Burnout extends beyond the affected nurse and begins to affect the care patients receive. Researchers have found that hospitals with high burnout rates have lower patient satisfaction scores (Aiken et al 2013). There are various measures that nurses can take

  • Mexican American Culture: The Film Selena

    1000 Words  | 2 Pages

    To help me understand and analyze a different culture, I watched the film Selena. The film tells the life story of the famous singer Selena Quintanilla-Pérez. Not only does it just tell personal stories from her life, it also gives insight to the Mexican-American culture. Her whole life she lived in the United States, specifically in Texas, but was Hispanic and because of that both her and her family faced more struggles than white singers on the climb to her success. Even though the film is a story about a specific person, it brought understanding into the culture in which she lived. Keeping in mind that these ideas that I drew about the Mexican-American culture is very broad and do not apply to every single person in the culture, there were very obvious differences in their culture and the one that I belong. Mexican-American culture identifies with their family rather than individualized or spiritual identities and the culture has gone through significant changes because of discrimination and the changing demographics of the United States.

  • The Importance Of Burnout In Nursing

    Burnout in critical care nursing has been a longstanding, serious yet under recognized issue that has recently been magnified due to the nursing shortage.  The key components of burnout include emotional exhaustion, depersonalization or detachment, and lack of personal accomplishment.  These factors are closely interwoven and create a snowball effect which results in burnout.  Emotional exhaustion stems from the stress placed on critical care nurses.  Stress from patient acuity, heavy workload and responsibility, limited autonomy, ethical dilemmas, inadequate staffing ratios, and caring for patient’s families all contribute to emotional exhaustion (Epp, 2012, p. 26).  In turn, emotional exhaustion triggers depersonalization which is a way for critical care nurses to cope. Finally, lack of personal accomplishment is achieved when the nurse cannot meet their inherent high standards and are unsupported by their colleagues and superiors (Epp, 2012, p. 28).  To prevent and remedy burnout, Epp’s (2012) article suggests that nurse managers play an integral role by regulating staffing levels and encouraging interdisciplinary collaboration.  In addition, they can foster a supportive work environment by participating in daily reports, establishing relationships with staff nurses to identify individual signs of stress, and instituting educational workshops.  Critical care nurses are also encouraged to play an active role in combatting burnout by advocating for themselves and for their colleagues to institute personal measures such as rest, delegation, and stress management (Epp, 2012, p.

  • The Rwanda Genocide

    For the Jewish it was a little more strange. When Elie and the rest of the people from Transylvania were just getting in contact with the Germans, they thought they were getting saved from the incoming war and army. On page 7, Elie runs into Moshe the Beadle he is then quoted saying, “They think i'm mad.” This is when Moshe escaped the camps and came back to warm all of his peers about what is happening, and that they need to get out while they can. The whole town was convinced he was a madman, and that he was crazy. They should have listened to him This was one small way that they may have able to avoid the Holocaust themselves. During the Rwandan Genocide the Tutsi knew right away. Within hours the Hutus were mass murdering their own people. The staff at History.com wrote “During this period, local officials and government-sponsored radio stations called on ordinary Rwandan civilians to murder their neighbors.” This is quite different than Elies experience during the Holocaust. The Jews were transferred from their homelands and brought to different concentration camps. When Elie first enters Auschwitz, he enters through a gate that has the writing, “Arbeit macht frei.” Which means work makes you free in english. The whole goal of the camps was to have the Jews work until they could not work anymore. Once you got to that point, you were deemed useless and

  • Burnout among Critical Care Nurses

    1215 Words  | 3 Pages

    Bakker, Le Blanc and Schaufeli begin by explicitly defining burnout and the characteristics of burnout (277). The claim the authors make is that burnout among critical care nurses is due to contagion, i.e., communicated from one nurse to another, rather than reasons presented in previous studies of the subject. The authors present the previously stated reasons for critical care nurse burnout: excessive workload, high patient care demands, time constraints and intensive use of sophisticated technology. The authors’ warrant is explicitly stated by their presentation of statistical evidence obtained from a large study of nurse interviews. Bakker, Le Blan...

Many nurses deal with things that affect them emotionally on a daily basis, whether it is an emotional attachment to a patient or some other work related issue. Finding a good listener to vent to after stressful days will decrease the amount of emotional stress. Having those conversations with a coworker will eliminate bringing the emotional baggage from work into the home.
