Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2008 AJN Book of the Year Winner! Like its popular predecessor, the new edition of Bathing Without a Battle presents an individualized, problem-solving approach to bathing and personal care of individuals with dementia. On the basis of extensive original research and clinical experience, the editors have developed strategies and techniques that work in both institution and home settings. Their approach is also appropriate for caregiving activities other than bathing, such as morning and evening care, and for frail elders not suffering from dementia. For this second edition, the authors have included historical material on bathing and substantially updated the section on special concerns, including: Pain Skin care Determining the appropriate level of assistance Transfers The environment An enhanced final section addresses ways to support caregivers by increasing their understanding of the care recipient's needs and their knowledge of interventions to improve care and comfort. It also emphasizes self-care and system-level changes to promote person-directed care. Several chapters include specific insights and wisdom from direct caregivers.

Download or read book Desirable Body written by Hubert Haddad and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-21 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A medical mystery/fantasy/love story that delves deeply into the nature of consciousness while raising many of the ethical and existential issues facing scientists today A contemporary Frankenstein that defies expectations, this is a thrilling novel, couched in luminous, captivating prose about a journalist, Cédric Allyn-Weberson, who suffers a horrific accident, paralyzing him from the neck down. An ideal candidate for a body transplant, Cédric survives the surgery but has both physical and existential trouble with his recovery and adaptation: encountering his lover with a new body, discovering the life history of his donor, and attempting to understand the mind-body relationship as he lives it. Haddad explores the confusion and insignificance of a single consciousness before experience and identity: What is a head without a body? What or who is a lover with another’s body? The gruesome transplant (detailed in a manner that highlights the author’s own diligent research and comprehension) parallels other ways humanity mutates nature globally; the novel is a provocative and timely allegory—a work of dystopian fantasy.

Download or read book Justice Reframed written by Christopher Webb and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-24 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tina and Chris Webb, mother and son, share their view of justice as Christian African-Americans. In the Introduction, they write,"To truly see justice as God does, as believers, we study the Scriptures. Our understanding deepens, and our consciences are pricked as each of us realizes that His ways are not our ways, His thoughts are not our thoughts. We then wrestle with God, driven by our personal views and experiences with injustice. At some point, we lay on the ground like Jacob, knowing that our grappling has produced a greater dependence on our Creator. God is good and loves us-He created us to be loved by Him. Therefore He cares when any member of this created race of human beings feels the pain of injustice or is the perpetrator of injustice. From this foundation, recognizing that justice is the by-product of God's care, we can view our actions and inspect our formed opinions. Only then will we know how to discern and address any injustice around us rightly." Tina Webb is the author of Culture Changers: Understand the Roots of Brokenness and Help Heal Your Family and Community, published by Carpenter's Son Publishing, and Cultivating the Souls of Parents: Facing Our Brokenness, Embracing His Likeness. Christopher Webb is a high school teacher at a Classical Christian School. He graduated from VCU, summa cum laude with a degree in Criminal Justice. His next book, Signs Along the Road, A Thirty-Day Devotional and Journalwill be available October 2020.
