In the following scenario, a female student, Suzy, in her first-year of university visits a male doctor at the Student Health Centre, to which, she is told that she has a minor vaginal infection and is then further questioned about her sexual activity. After she mentions the number of sexual partners she has had in the past year and states that she “likes sex,” the doctor makes a judgmental remark by saying he does not believe a girl of her age should be behaving this way and advises her to go see a therapist.…
Daly Walker has written a story about a doctor who is haunted by the shame and guilt he carries with him from the atrocious acts he committed while serving in the army; acts so horrible that he cannot speak of them. The story depends on his use of three literary elements: setting, plot and symbolism.…
Officers should be taught that the lives of civilians are in their hands and they need to take extra precautions.…
The medical field is never a place of stasis. There are always new procedures, techniques and technological advances in the field of medicine in which people are researching to try and make better every single day. In the short story “The Use of Force” we see an example of a terrible doctor who would never have a license to practice medicine in this time for all of the laws and professional groups in place to prevent against bad practice of medicine.…
In the story “The Use of Force” by William Carlos Williams the narrator describes the little girls rage for the doctor. “the child was fairly eating me up with her cold, steady eyes and no expression to her face whatever””The Use of Force” paragraph 12. The…
Williams explains a time where he “couldn’t keep his eyes open a moment longer.” However, seeing his patient rid the weariness he had felt. Williams states his patient “called for attention, his peculiarities, her reticences or candors.” This demonstrates the physician Williams was, a doctor who was there for his patients regardless of any obstacles.…
In the second page the when the doctor is first introduced he is seen as a quite, irresponsible, unreliable and extremely feminist man “you can ask a woman to live anywhere” the explicit meaning the whole quote is to say the doctor is quite sexist, however the doctor does use the word “ask” which is not an imperative verb, as he does not mean to demand the woman to live where he please, but simply to ask her, on where the man would like to live. This could show that even though he has sexist thoughts he could be quite unconfident when dealing with women in his life. “But don’t let that worry you. Often by the time I arrive I am not needed” the doctor is telling Mr. Tanner even though you may call for my assistance the birth will already happen, whether it is successful or not, before the doctor can be any assistance. The fact that the doctor knows it will be too late could seem as he is speaking from experience, which suggests that the doctor may have arrive to late in many of these situations already. This shows him as very irresponsible as he fails to help assist with births repeatedly, and asks Mr. Tanner that he should not predict that the Doctor will come.…
In comparing Kenton’s treatment of both AIDS victims, we can conclude that he was not only morbidly afraid of contracting AIDS, but he was more fearful of the moral implications attached to the transmission of the disease. The entire firm feared Beckett because of the stigma attached to AIDS and, ultimately, to homosexuality. Kenton personally justifies labeling Beckett as a guilty victim of his own actions who deserved punishment for his negligence. In this case, AIDS is seen as a crime against the body and soul of the sufferer caused solely by that individual’s actions and choices. Society often strips illness of its true medical value in order to rationalize the horror presented by the sufferers.…
I think that the police use a reasonable amount of force when they’re entering a premise. If the people inside the premises are compliant which the police by doing what they say such as opening the door for them or letting them enter the premises then the police would not have to use any force at all. They will just do their job and and be on their way. I also believe they use the right amount of force when raiding someone's house where they have reason to believe that drug dealing is taking place. Warrants will be executed under the Misuse of Drugs Act and the police will use police battering rams to hit the door where the locks are so that they can gain entry. Then they would use tactics to scare and detain any suspects in the property. They…

Due to his subtle social commentary and familiar stories, during the tumultuous 1850’s, Ivan Turgenev was one of the more respected figures in Russian literature. His story, The District Doctor, focuses on one of the countless middle-class physicians who were split between poor and rich by more than just monetary terms. The doctor comes across as perhaps someone who isn’t terribly intelligent, but is a very earnest man in his intentions and seems slightly uncomfortable talking about this encounter with a particular patient. He begins to tell the story, explaining how he set out one night to answer a call out in the middle of nowhere. It’s pretty clear from the beginning that the doctor is not at all too pleased…
“Have you ever used force?”, In the spiel “The use of force” by William Carlos Williams, a physician uses force to save a child's life. Doctors make a promise called the “Hippocratic Oath”. This oath assures that doctors do no harm. The story reveals how force is portrayed by all characters.…
Whats right from wrong when it comes to police use of force. The unnecessary use of force has been described as deadly force, brutality and many more abuses towards minorities Do police officers believe in correct use of protocol because citizens are not seeing the result. Police officers are taught to serve and protect but unnecessary use of force is being revisited. Police officers can’t be taught to treat citizens as if they are animals. Now a days animals are treated better than a your typical minority. If a person of any race shots an animal of any kind it is a crime . If a person of any race brutality attacks an animal you will do time because it is against the law. The unnecessary use of force towards an animal is not tolerated.…
The use of force by law enforcement becomes necessary and is permitted under specific circumstances, such as in self-defense or in defense of another individual or group. (Peak, (2015). I feel, law enforcement should acquire enough use of force which is necessary to gain control of a situation. The levels or continuum of force police use include basic verbal and physical restraint, less-lethal force and lethal force. (Peak, (2015). Throughout our history, police agencies have faced allegations of brutality and corruption. (Peak, (2015). There are three means by which the police can be brutal: verbal abuse, physical abuse and police brutality. Police brutality has become a great concern. Police brutality encompasses a wide range of practices, from the use of…
As outlined in the article “Subtly Controlling Behavior” by Michael Samsel, the doctor exhibits many archetypal behaviors indicative of abuse. He uses ingratiating behavior (the abuser uses “conspicuously nice language to instill guilt and block confrontation”) when the story takes a sinister turn; the doctor notes, “[She was] an unusually attractive little thing,...[and] she had magnificent blonde hair.” (Williams 178). Immediately the audience senses that something is off about the doctor, as we can hear what he is thinking, yet the parents are completely clueless. The girl still instinctively distrusts him, so the doctor attempts to coax the child to open her mouth with kind language, but the girl still refuses. She continues to say no, like many women have to sex, yet the doctor pursues her. At this point, however, on the outside this still seems like acceptable behavior as all he has truly done is ask her politely to open her…
