Discussion: Vaccinations are a pseudo-requirement for many children

Vaccinations are a pseudo-requirement for many children, whether at birth or as a requirement to attend school. Vaccinations need to be made mandatory for all children, only allowing for medical exemptions to be made. Currently there is a state by state consideration as to what qualifies as an exemption from vaccination. A 2016 research study shows that 15% of children are under-immunized due to their parents skeptical beliefs about the safety of immunizations and the idea that they are overly immunized (Rabinowitz, 2016).

Vaccine exemption based upon personal belief is allowed in 15 states and by 45 for religious belief. By not mandating vaccines we are creating a public health risk, which can be outlined with the current Coronavirus, and putting those that can truly not receive vaccinations at higher risk as herd immunity effectiveness is reduced.

Problem statement: Mandatory Overtime for RNs is an unsafe practice that endangers the safety of patients and nurses. Nurses working an excessive number of hours can jeopardizes their career and the future of healthcare. When nurse is overworked and tired it can lead to mistakes and overlooking specific details. Patient safety is the primary goal of healthcare and it is being compromised by mandatory overtime for RNs.

Literature review: In my own words a literature review will not reflect my opinion on the topic, but it will review the work and the authors view on the matter. It is a way to present the work and summarize it. In my literature review I will not make a new argument, instead I will recapitulate and collect information of what is already being said. A literature review will give me the tools in order to interpret the subject being reviewed. My literature review will give me an insight and facts about the impact of mandatory overtime for nurses.

Most important takeaways:

The department of labor the restrictions of consecutive hours of work and over time for RNs were initiated on July 1, 2009. This rule was finally approved on September 27, 2011 and published on October 12, 2011. Also, the department of labor states that prohibiting overtime will not apply in case of emergencies and disasters.

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.
