Create a post that answers the following questions. I’m not giving you a word-count requirement, but your answers will reflect that you read the story carefully, as will your grade. (See #4 below) Your grade also depends on your doing this.
1. Consider the following repetition:
I used to think that we were very special, the best boatwomen in the world, but Viola says no, we are only vessels ourselves: something wants to be born. Perhaps there are many others like us around the bays of New Florida and elsewhere. Women who know enough to be silent about what is developing inside their bodies (200).
He thinks my home is a cemetery, and I want him to hear how wrong he is before we part company. The end of his life is not the end of all life. Something wants to be born (222).
What do you think it is that wants to be born? What is Russell implying or symbolizing?
2. Do you feel any pity for the man that Blister transports to the wall? Is Russell trying to represent something through him?
3. What do you think happens at the end of the story? Does Blister die or something else?
4. Write one question you have about the story for class discussion. Yes, this is required.
Distinguishing Precursors and Indicators in Incident Detection:
Incident detection in healthcare relies heavily on distinguishing precursors and indicators. Precursors are signs that an incident may occur in the future, often subtle and requiring proactive measures to prevent an actual incident. Indicators, on the other hand, are signs that an incident is currently happening or has already occurred. They demand immediate investigation and response to mitigate potential harm.
Challenges in Healthcare:
1. Identifying Precursors:
2. Acting on Precursors:
3. Interpreting Indicators:
Conclusion:
Effective incident detection in healthcare requires addressing these challenges through improved data collection, training staff to identify precursors, establishing clear response protocols, and fostering a culture of open communication and incident reporting.
