COVID-19 Impact: Healthcare workers Burnout - 4 views

  •  
    While the number of COVID 19 case continues to rise, Healthcare workers are succumbing to overwhelming pressure on their shoulders. Many hospitals, clinics, and labs are short-staffed with restricted resources at hand to properly treat patients who have the virus. Often times, this leads to non COVID 19 related issues to be pushed aside due to the conditions and priorities these facilities have enforced. They are experiencing stress, frustration, depression, loneliness, and many other concerns that could impact their performance on the front lines.

    I am so grateful for our healthcare workers. Times are tough right now. Health cares workers are on the frontline of this pandemic.

    This is an interesting article, It would be good to have a comparison with previous data from healthcare workers reviewing their stress levels before the pandemic to the data from the article and see what the difference is in their quality of life and their opinion of the healthcare system.

    This kind of article should be spread around to help decrease and get rid of bullies. Many just think that it's only teasing but they don't know that can stay with you forever. This article shows that we do stay with lasting affects when bullied.

    Restorative Justice is fine when you have a student who is willing to put forth the change and in turn is a positive role-model for their peers. Sometimes, it's just a pat on the back and the student is left to deal with the challenges of being in a school where bullying is tolerated by their peers. Sometimes these pre-teens and teens have some serious mental issues that need to be addressed outside of school. It infuriates me that the innocent, kind and quiet kids, become targets for these kids. Bullying is a power play by some very manipulative children. I vote for serious consequences on bullies. Kick them out of school period! 1st offence, your counseled, 2nd offence there is the door!
  •  
    This article should be exposed to anyone who has been bullied or bullied anyone.

    It is so sad that someone else's actions can forever alter your mental state or even end your life.

Factors That May Contribute to Eating Disorders - 0 views

  •  
    There are many risk factors to eating disorder, however they are not what cause the disorder but can contribute to developing an eating disorder. Psychological risk factors are low self-esteem, lack of control on life, anxiety, anger, stress. Some social factors to eating disorder are wanting to obtain the "perfect body", the cultures definition of beauty.
  •  
    I think a huge impact on a person eating habits is how society views people. People are constantly told to look a certain way, do certain things, and it eventually becomes ove whelming. These factors can lead to person having a eating disorder so that they can feel accepted in society.
