Substances, such as alcohol, are used for a variety of different reasons. Alcohol is often used as a way to celebrate a special occasion. It can also be used to help an individual “take the edge off” when he or she is feeling overwhelmed. Many individuals use alcohol when gathered with others in a social setting, while others may drink alcohol when spending time alone. The use of alcohol can become a problem when the individual begins to face challenges in his or her daily life. Some of these challenges can include increasing problems with emotional or physical health, the ability to maintain a steady job, and a steady withdrawal from family and friends. Sometimes, an individual may become completely dependent on alcohol in order to feel as if he or she is functioning properly. An individual who has built up a tolerance to alcohol will need to not only drink every day, but will also need to drink in increasingly larger amounts in order to feel good. One of the most notable and famous cases of substance abuse and alcoholism is that of Betty Ford. Betty Ford was the wife of President Gerald R. Ford and was considered as one of the most influential First Ladies in American History. Some of Betty Ford’s greatest accomplishments included her advocacies in breast cancer awareness as well as women’s rights (Meyer, Chapman, & Weaver, 2009). Although Betty Ford was well known and admired for these accomplishments, she became an even greater influence in our modern history when she was able to admit to and overcome her lifelong struggles with alcohol and prescription medications.…
Quality of life is described as the ability to enjoy life. People define it in their own ways. I personally feel that for me to maintain a high quality of life I need to be able to utilize most of my natural senses. Communication is on the top of my list. I am a verbal personality and I spend a majority of my day talking to people placing emphasis on being able to talk to people and hold an intelligent conversation of substance with my peers and children is vital to me enjoying my life. Touch would be second. I would feel deprived if I wasn’t able to feel and or reciprocate a hug to and from my children, family and friends. Cognition comes next. If I am unaware of my surroundings and or the people around me, then I am not living. I would rather not continue to live than to live and not continue.…
516 1.1) The policies, procedures and practices for safe working with children and young people all stem from the murders of Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman by Ian Huntley. From this horrific act of evil the Safeguarding Vulnerable Group Act 2006 was born (see evidence ‘6’ – 520 1.3). Another public enquiry was set up to address the failure of the law after the death of Victoria Climbié. Within this enquiry, Lord Laming called for changes to be made in child protection policies. From this there was a new incentive born called ‘Every Child Matters’ in 2003. This became one of the most far reaching policy incentives to be released in the last 10 years. It covers children and young adults up to the age of 19 or 24 for those with disabilities. This also led to changes in the Children’s Act in 2004 and provided a detailed framework for working with children within multi agency partnerships. The themes that were adopted by all agencies working with children are –…
