Benefits Of BUCM
The first short term goal is for Andrea to stop using Xanax or marijuana long enough so that she can pass a drug test to get into either Options of Burke County or The Burke Women and Children’s Shelter. This goal is specific because Andrea currently uses either drug at least three to four times a day and will continue to be homeless and will be denied any type of housing until she becomes clean. It is measurable because BUCM is offering to work with the shelters and monitor Andrea's usage by documenting every day what drug she used and how much she has consumed when she comes in. Since she is homeless she relies on taking a shower and getting a meal from the soup kitchen everyday at BUCM so this makes the goal more attainable.

    Pros And Cons Of BMCS

    BMCS has been steadfast to enforcement of policies and standards. By holding himself and others accountable he has maintained a very successful working climate for his unit. His determination to prevent and or eliminate DUI’s has sometimes been unpopular with his crew. His unwavering standard has negatively affected some member’s careers and on one recent occasion has ended in a discharge. By setting a strong zero tolerance policy his plan has possibly resulted in saving the CG time, effort and money, not including reducing the overall risk. His plan ensures a non-reprisal approach will be taken if members use the phone and call for a ride, at anytime day or night. He has been highly engaged with the sexual assault and prevention program.…

    Summary Of Hooked By Dr. Lonny Shavelson

    However, what really happened was that the initiation of intake centers that would be able to work with addicts on daily basis (in a group setting etc) until they could send them to an actual long term rehab, which still led to the problem, as Dr. Shavelson says, of "windows" of opportunity for treatment. Dr. Shavelson posits that when an addict is ready to sober up, there is often a preliminary event or window, and with the way addiction works according to the author, if they are delayed because there isn't any space for them after all their purposed efforts to get clean, some centers require potential clients to call daily “remind” not only themselves, but the clinic that they are still waiting for a bed. This process required multiple intake interviews, and for a census of people suffering from addiction who perhaps may not have access to transportation, or may be mentally ill and not on medication, who by definition are struggling with addiction) there is a likely chance that the aforementioned “window” of opportunity to get them into treatment will pass and they risk the chance of going back to using/continue using and give up on treatment altogether. Upon reading the book, one can say that the program was set up to try to get around this but it really was not equipped to do this realistically at the time. They had every intention I feel to encourage treatment, and they were willing to fund it and idealistic about it, but the reality was that there simply was not enough space available for everyone who need it the most. In my humble opinion, it was better than nothing since they did have counselors and daily group sessions organized to check in with the individuals to help them and to eventually match them with a…

    Essay On Homeless Intervention

    By sitting one-on-one with a client, the worker is able to see if the client needs housing, medical care, financial assistance, food, or any services. This will allow the worker to make a plan with the client on how to establish these needs and in what order the client believes is most appropriate for their current situation. The goals of the mezzo intervention would be to provide individuals a safe place to sleep and the ability to receive a hot meal. This intervention allows individuals to take the next step from living on the streets to actually living under a room, for some this may be the starting point of acquiring housing. The goals of the macro intervention would to be to lobby for the increase of funding in order to improve or create shelters in areas with higher rates of homelessness.

    Student Nurse Reflective Report

    The goal is specific as my objective is clearly stated and defined on what I want to learn, increasing my nursing knowledge to respond related to laboring mothers in emergency situations with confidence. It is measurable because by responding to emergency situations with little to no direction allows for a quantifiable measurement through my personal self-reflection and the feedback of staff. My goal is attainable and relevant because it applies directly to my current role as a labour and delivery nurse where as mentioned by CNO entry-to-practice standards, domain knowledge-based practice, as a nurse you are “proactively seeking new information, knowledge and best practice for use in the provision of nursing care”(CNO,20??). Lastly, this goal is time-limited, as I have stated a clear deadline as to when I intend to complete my goal. This deadline is the completion of my pregrad placement where it allows for sufficient time to build on my confidence level and nursing knowledge related to this field, and allow me to enter the nursing profession with increased experience and confidence. By stating a specific date it created more motivation and engagement for me to complete my goal (CNO,…
