At night you separate the calf and cow, so that you can milk the cow in the morning. Then in the morning, if you don’t want to milk the cow, you just let the calf go straight to the mother so he can suckle. Ukugqithisa means to allow him to pass, to allow the calf to go to its mother… So you are there to milk the cow, but instead you are just letting the calf through, not milking. You look like you are going to do your job, but you are not actually doing it.” - Xaks Dabula (co-researcher) i Abstract Background: People with disabilities in impoverished rural areas of South Africa struggle to access healthcare, despite the right to health established by the Constitution and the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.

  • To Read the Attachments to the Stakeholder's Letters, Including A
    APPENDIX A: OVERVIEW OF THE CMTF WORK, JANUARY-DECEMBER, 2015. Over the past several months we have accomplished the following: 1. Submitted a letter to the National Council for State Boards (NCSBN) and the workgroup organized by the Consens Model Workgroup: Licensure, Accreditation, Certification, and Education (LACE) as a follow-up to the AHNCC Position Statements on the Advanced Practice Holistic Nurse (APHN) Certification Program offered by AHNCC, and the APRN Consensus Model. These can be found on the AHNCC website at (http://ahncc.org/aboutahncc/ahnccpositionstatements.html). The Position Statement was also distributed to all attendees at the joint LACE and ANCC Roundtable held (2014), sent to all AHNCC certificants, and contact persons of the AHNCC Endorsed Programs. 2. Responded to ANA’s request for open comment regarding the proposed Scope and Standards of Nursing, 2015. We stated our support for the intent, while concurrently commenting on the language used in the document suggests that graduate nursing is based in a science and philosophy of health and wellness, while in reality advanced practice nursing is primarily based in a science of pathology, as demonstrated by the Consensus Model. 3. Submitted a letter to the NCSBN and LACE requesting that the APHN role be added to the Consensus Model with attachments to articulate why we made the request and an outline describing the expected educational and practice specifications. 4. Held a telephone conference with representatives of the NCSBN and LACE regarding a 5th role for Advanced Holistic Nurses in the Consensus Model. 5. Developed a strategic plan to pursue recognition of Advanced Holistic Nursing that includes drafting of a White Paper, related Talking Points for those who support our request, and a list of stakeholders to contact including: Faculty of Endorsed Programs/Schools, Extant Holistic Nurse Theorists, Certificates, Educators of other Institutions, Holistic Nurse Leaders, Consumers, Funding Agencies, Health care Agencies, Healthcare providers, Holistic Nursing Organizations 6.

A healthcare worker is one of the most typical representatives of the so-called assisting professions, whose common objective is any form of assistance to individuals dependent on the provision of care by others. In this post, the author points to the fact that healthcare workers are confronted with the aforementioned phenomena on a daily basis. It lays stress on respect for the patient’s dignity at all times, and also provides guidance on the implementation of ethics in interaction between the healthcare workers and patients, because no human care would have been provided without this phenomenon. Keywords: ethics, healthcare worker, patient, modern society, care.

Pracownik opieki zdrowotnej jest jednym z najbardziej typowych przedstawicieli tak zwanych zawodów wspomagających, których wspólnym celem jest każda forma pomocy osobom zależnym od świadczenia opieki przez innych. W artykule tym autorka wskazuje na fakt, że pracownicy służby zdrowia mają do czynienia z takimi zjawiskami na co dzień. To kładzie nacisk na poszanowanie godności pacjenta w każdym czasie, a także dostarcza wskazówek na temat wdrożenia etyki w interakcji między pracownikami służby zdrowia a pacjentami, ponieważ bez tego zjawiska opieką nie zostałby objęty żaden człowiek.

  • The Science and Philosophy of Cherokee Indian Medicine: a Natural Alternative to Western Solutions
    H-SC Journal of Sciences (2013) Vol. II Frazier, Goad, and Wolyniak The Science and Philosophy of Cherokee Indian Medicine: A Natural Alternative to Western Solutions S. Barron Frazier, Sharon I. Goad, and Michael J. Wolyniak Department of Biology, Hampden-Sydney College, Hampden-Sydney, VA 23943 Healing cannot be defined as the physical removal of a disease, cancer, or pathogen from a living organism. Healing heavily relies on a person’s quality of life improving, and this result is only possible if the illness is removed from the spirit in conjunction with the removal of the illness from the body. Western medicine today has fallen ill to looking at patients as living organisms rather than human beings and overlooks the importance of addressing the health of a person’s spiritual being. Cherokee medicine, on the other hand, takes a different approach to healthcare that focuses first on the purity and wellbeing of the soul before addressing the condition of the body. This philosophy of healthcare, coupled with the extensive use of different natural herbal medicines, creates a care pathway that provides new solutions to current health-related problems today. With more people struggling to afford healthcare, understanding the Cherokee culture can provide affordable alternative medicine like goldenseal and geranium plant oil to cure their ailments. Additionally, using Cherokee medicine can improve the way doctors and nurses approach patients in the healthcare setting and can ultimately lead to a quicker recovery or a greater quality of life by focusing on the health of a person much as the pathogen or disease that they seek to eradicate.

  • Vermenko A.Yu. the Object of Research of Medicine and Its Place in the System of Modern Knowledge
    Vermenko A.Yu. The Object of Research of Medicine and Its Place in the System of Modern Knowledge. — «Релігія та медицина». Матеріали міжнародної науково-практичної конференції, присвяченої пам’яті свт. Луки (В. Ф. Войно-Ясенецького). — НМУ ім. О.О.Богомольця, 11-12.06.2019. — C. 145-147. During XX-XXI century the interaction between philosophy and medicine acquired specific character which is still under discussion in philosophical anthropology, gnoseology and social philosophy. Two most common points of view are that philosophy performs compensatory function as scientific theory of medicine or can be interpreted as theoretical addition to medical knowledge in the frame work of natural philosophy approach like it was in previous periods of philosophy and medicine historical development. The compensatory approach as specific to modern time points primary to the hetero chronic character of medical culture formation caused by the slower development of its theoretical and gnoseological system in comparison to its practical and object orientated elements including ethics. One of the main reasons of such hetero chronic development of medical culture and its slower development if compared to biological science is specifics of human being as both biological and social object of research. The above mentioned conditions cause the actuality of attempt to one more time re-evaluate the object of research of medicine and its place in the system of modern knowledge which was undertaken by the author of this research. Main representatives of modern philosophy of medicine are Rachel Ankeny, Christopher Boorse, Nancy Cartwright, H. Tristram Engelhardt, Fred Gifford, Havi Carel, Donald A. Gillies, Jeremy Howick, Hilde Lindemann, Ingvar Johansson, Keekok Lee, Michael Loughlin, Frederica Russo, Kazem Sadegh-Zadeh, Kenneth F.
