This paper points out the benefits to society, the system of justice, and the arrested person, of providing treatment for the drug addiction as an alternative to just locking the person up with a vague hope that his incarceration will rehabilitate him. Literature on Rehabilitation Rather than Strictly Incarceration An article in the Journal of Drug Issues (Banks, et al
Earlier in this paper one of the goals of the drug court process was to involve offenders in societal activities, jobs and education, and more things that relate to normal community activities. Loreen Wolfer offers some updated information in the journal Contemporary Drug Problems (Wolfer, 2006, p
Numbers of cases working with such programs in Tennessee seem to be on the rise. The VR program provides services to around 30,000 individuals, the disabled and those who work closely with them (Downing & Harrison, 2010)
The state of Tennessee provides counseling, vocational training and placement, interpretive services, and a wide variety of other. Unfortunately, deaf and hearing impaired individuals often have less chances of being hired and have limited job advancement opportunities (Watson et al
Patients with sepsis may also develop Alzheimer's disease, which is characterised by their being delirious. Such patients ought to be exposed to exercises that will build their cognitive skills and help them live fulfilled lives (Bersten, et al
According to Bersten, Soni, & Oh (2009), after a patient is discharged from the intensive care unit, there is requirement for a care plan that is multidisciplinary in order to achieve the best possible recovery for the patient. No matter the rehabilitation program that health care providers may choose to adopt, prior assessment of the patient is critical to help them in making the most informed decisions on the appropriate approach to apply (Porter, and Tidy, 2008)
The place of a physiotherapist in helping a with low blood pressure will be to centre most of the exercises around ensuring that sufficient blood reaches the adrenal cortex and the brain at large. 2nd alternative theory In some cases, patients who have been in the Intensive Care Unit may recover within a short period, say one month without going through the physiotherapy process (Vincent, 2012)
People often argue that taxpayers should not pay to provide a college education for inmates but recent studies show that in the long run it actually saves the taxpayer dollars by reducing the cost of recidivism rates. Studies conducted on 3,000 inmates in prisons in Maryland, Minnesota and Ohio examined how likely inmates were to return to prison if they were able to obtain a college education while incarcerated (Klug, 2002)
Today there are approximately 150 full time inmates continuing their education at any given time. The Utah colleges use a distance learning program to teach the inmates and offer a variety of courses aimed at specific degrees that will make the inmate marketable when he or she is released (Gray, 2001)
Rehabilitation -- or restorative judgment, on the other hand, believes that one should make a distinction between crimes perpetrated against society and crimes perpetrated against people. Zehr, for instance, claims that conventional criminal justice system views crime and justice through a retributive perspective where crime is seen as violating laws and justice is seen as condemning the other and demanding retribution (Zehr, 1990)
Generally, it's based upon the cause-and-effect relations of the financial and non-financial factors, which are foundations of organizational strategy. Kaplan and Norton emphasize on the need to shift from focusing on tangible assets to intangible ones because intangible assets have become the main source of competitive management by the end of the 20th Century (Kaplan, 2010)
Organizations have traditionally placed considerable emphasis on financial measures in their internal operations. When introducing the concept, they argued that dependence on financial measures in a management system is inadequate since these measures are lag symbols that reflect the outcomes from past actions (Martello, Watson & Fisher, 2008, p
The most notable include: hospitals, universities, schools, government agencies, insurance companies, skilled care / nursing facilities, sports organizations and in private practice. (Riggar, 2004) (J
It grew stronger and stronger with social science developing rapidly in the 1930s and 1940s, reaching heights during the 1950s when medical model took on a new meaning. However, it suffered a setback during the 1960s and 1970s, and then totally forgotten in the 1980s (Logan and Gaes, 1993)
They give the impression to be like possible synonyms or ways to refer to same processes. Is punishment rehabilitation? Or alternatively, is rehabilitation punishment (McNeill, forthcoming)? The supporters of rehabilitation view offending etched in people's experience of injustice and social expulsion, to bank on an individual's (criminal) responsibility (the punishment is based on that) as ill-conceived and to emphasize the role of the state to rectify the mess of the total crime produced
A summary of the research and important findings are provided in the conclusion. Review and Discussion The rapidly aging population in the United States has experienced an increasing incidence of strokes in recent years (Ashih, Duncan, Lai, Matchar, Parmiagiani, & Samsa, 2004), and today, strokes are a major health problem in the United States and worldwide (Antai-Otong, 2004)

Because strokes can occur without giving any type of warning, though, it is difficult to determine who is at risk (Goff, 2000)
29). Some examples of rehabilitation program components that are amenable to on-going evaluation include: (a) access to rehabilitation services, (b) functional outcomes, (d) patient satisfaction, and (d) discharge planning (Haley et al
273). From a nursing perspective, the health and wellness of stroke patients undergoing rehabilitation treatment can be considered on several levels that involve the patient, the community, and the systems that control the interactions within the social and physical environments; therefore, healthcare providers in general and nurses in particular are in an excellent position to promote health and wellness activities at each of these levels, a result that is supported by previous studies (Hart, Rintala, & Fuhrer, 1996)
