You will submit a single page that interacts with the reading material for that week in some way. The page might raise a significant question or express either agreement or disagreement about something that appeared in the reading. You might think of these pages as a personal journal entry that you record as you engage the reading material. The purpose of these pages is to provide evidence that you have engaged the reading material for the week. Consequently, your pages must specifically allude to something particular in the reading materialand make reference to a particular page number. You must limit your submissions to a single sheet of paper (double-spacing is preferred but use single-spacing if necessary to keep the submission to a single sheet). Submissions must reflect your own personal, original work. Submissions MUST BE PREPARED WITH TECHNICAL CARE. By technical care, I mean to suggest that the document you submit should be copy ready if it were to be submitted to a newspaper or to an employer as a sample of your writing. Your document should NOT contain spelling errors, grammatical errors or problems with sentence structure.

The courts have one of the most important roles in the criminal justice system. They are responsible for the interpretation and application of law when crimes are committed, They exert some of their greatest influence when it involves due process under the law. The due process model argues that the greatest concern of the justice system should be providing fair and equitable treatment to those accused of crime. This perspective is demonstrated through the courts involvement with the police in controlling search and seizure and interrogation, protecting the rights of the accused, in cases like Miranda v. Arizona and Weeks v. United States. Have concerns over due process and protecting the allegedly innocent led to the guilty also being spared, as the crime control model would argue?
Criminologist Herbert Packers assembly line concept finds that although there are many people who commit crime and are arrested and charged, only about 21 adults are incarcerated for every 1000 serious crimes committed. Additionally, 80 percent of all felony cases and over 90 percent of misdemeanors are settled without trial.
On the other hand, over time, the Supreme Court has been diminishing the scope of the exclusionary rule. This normally excludes improperly obtained evidence by permitting more exceptions, thus allowing more improperly obtained evidence into court. For example, evidence is now admissible in court if the police officers acted in good faith by first obtaining court approval for their search, even if the warrant they received was deficient or faulty. This has come to be known as the good faith exception.
Based on your understanding from the readings in chapters 6-8, and keeping in mind the due process and crime control models, write a 2- to 3-page paper in which you discuss:
- Have criminals been given too many rights by the courts?
- Should courts be more concerned with the rights of victims or the rights of the offenders?
- Should illegally seized evidence be excluded from trial, even though it is conclusive proof of a persons criminal acts?

“More than 80% of adults do not meet the guidelines for both aerobic and muscle-strengthening activities. Similarly, more than 80% of adolescents do not do enough aerobic physical activity to meet the guidelines for youth” (“Physical activity,” N.D., para. 1). Physical activity is essential in preventing early death and detrimental disease processes. It is not just environmental factors that play a role in physical activity but personal, social, and economic factors play a huge role in physical activities. The lack of time, low income, and motivation are the most detrimental factors that influence an individual’s physical activity making it imperative that the promotion of activity goals is vital in prevention for the aging population to come and the future health of people worldwide.
In the recovery room, activity is essential in the recovery of patients. Total joints are sent home the same day as surgery in the PACU, where I currently work. These patients are given specific instructions on exercises they are to perform post-operatively. However, many of these patients do not do as instructed and end up having post-op complications. Many of the post-surgical patients are not receptive to the discharge instructions that recommend physical activity. (Argent, Daly, & Caulfield, 2018) Some patients take to heart a health crisis and change the way they eat and how much exercise they get. On the flip side, some chose to ignore the problem and continue doing what they have always done. When I worked cardiac step-down, I was so shocked at the number of patients that had just gone through open-heart surgery, and the very next day, they were eating double quarter pounders, large fries, and a large milkshake. When I attempted to broach the subject of the diet with one such patient, the patient stated, “I am all fixed now, I can continue to eat what I want.” We do recommend that patients who have time constraints to utilize apps on their phones to track physical activity and to get ideas on how to fit exercise into their daily schedule.
The most significant stressor for the peri-op area is fear of the unknown and being put under anesthesia. Pain is the next stressor for peri-op patients. In the recovery room, we use lavender essential oil, guided imagery, meditation, and distraction through soothing music to help alleviate anxiety and stress about their upcoming procedure. With children, we use distraction with their favorite movie on an iPad to distract them from getting blood is drawn, or an IV placed. Soothing music with the sound of the ocean waves rolling in and out seems to be the best stress reliever I have witnessed with the relaxing of patients. If a patient has an emotional support animal, we have the patient bring the pet with them to pre-op, and the pet stays with the patient until they are being taken to the OR. It seems to help some patients, not others. I have been fortunate enough to work in several facilities that played music in the emergency department when I was an ER nurse. Those facilities that played music I never felt stressed and overwhelmed by the chaos around me like I did in the other facilities. Therefore, making me a firm believer in music therapy. “Music has been an effective tool to decrease anxiety, promote easement of pain, and soothe the soul for centuries” (Bauer & Campbell, 2017, para. 1).

The United States is in an economic crisis, and health promotion and cost-effective behavioral change strategies are needed to reduce health spending. According to the Trust for America’s Health and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, at least half of U.S. adults will be obese by 2030. In addition, more than 133 million adults are living with at least one chronic disease such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease (Dossey, Luck, Schaub, & Keegan, 2018). This increasing burden of illness will go right to the bottom line, adding $66 billion in annual obesity-related medical costs over and above today’s $147 billion (Begley, 2017). America must shift the focus of health care from cure to prevention. We must promote self-efficacy and empower people to recognize their potential to engage I promoting their own health and well-being. The Healthy People 2020 initiate strives to do this and continues the work started in 2000 with Healthy People initiative for improving the nations health. I believe that Healthy People 2020 has overarching goals which includes: attaining high-quality, longer lives free of preventable disease, disability, injury and premature death, to achieve health equity, eliminate disparities and improve the health of all groups, to create social and physical environments that promote good health for all and ultimately to promote quality of life, healthy development, and health behaviors across all life stages. These goals must be our guide into the future of health care. Todays emerging nursing roles of the new millennium will pave the way for the next generation of nursing care.
