    Hepworth et al explains that being conscious of deficits and obstacles while assessing strengths is helpful in reaching goals (2013). In assessing these, we will still discuss how her strengths will help her overcome these negative circumstances. The third quadrant is deficits or obstacles and environmental factors. Lorene’s oldest brother, who is 19, is still living at home with the family. He has been in trouble with the law and is on probation. This is considered a deficit, however, Lorene sees her brother and does not get into any trouble following in his footsteps. As seen in her relationships with older adults, Lorene is very respectful of authority and responsibility. Her other brother, who was abused by their father, is reportedly aggressive and angry. Lorene’s strength in seeing what her brother must deal with can be heartbreaking. Lorene is strong and her environment since the abuse has changed dramatically. She has strengths in plasticity and resilience. Lorene also has limited resources for clean clothing from home. She must overcome teasing from other children because of poor hygiene. Finally, not much is reported about the relationship with Lorene and her mother. However, Mrs. Carr is not eager to come to parent-teacher conferences.

    I first attempted to maintain my routine chores at home. I tried to make dinner for my son and it was very difficult. I could not control the frying pan it kept moving all over the burner; I attempted to try and stir the food with my mouth, which was very scary and dangerous. In the end, I relied on my son for some assistance. I tried to fold some laundry and I did not get far, I was making more of a mess. Putting laundry away was very time-consuming, normally it would take me 10 to 15 minutes to finish, but not having the use of my right arm it took 30 to 40 minutes. Starting the car was a challenge; had to find a way to maneuver around the steering wheel to put the key in the ignition. At work, I attempted to get a resident dressed and took me 20 minutes; which would normally only take 5 minutes. A person with hemiplegia would not be able to perform my job the use of two hands is a necessity for efficiency and to maintain the safety of residents. I tried to see if I could prepare a residents tray for breakfast. I could not open the milk carton or pass the tray in a safe manner. I work as a certified nursing assistant (CNA) on an Alzheimer’s unit and the need to have full use of all your extremities is a necessity to care for the residents. My place of employment has integrated diversity in some aspects but is still lacking. The CNA staff mainly consists of women of many different ethnic backgrounds. There…

    At the turn of the 20th century, it was often said that the sun never sets on the British Empire it covered a vast area of the planet that included parts of Europe, Africa, Oceania, North America and Asia. However towards the end of the 21st century few of it’s former colonies remained. The effort exerted by Britain during WW II had left the country exhausted and made Britons turn inward and look at their own country, which led to many of them swapping ideas of imperialism to ones of nationalism. As Britain struggled through the post war economic crisis, many in the new Labour government of Clement Attlee began to see the Empire as an unnecessary drain on public finances and felt that Britain should abandon it’s attempts to retain it’s overseas territories. (Arnestein 377) In Africa Britain’s Empire came to a swift end, with Britain often withdrawing from their former colonies rapidly, leaving the newly-independent states ill-equipped to deal with the challenges of sovereignty.…
