People are also coming out to test for the disease and consequently receive appropriate treatment. We can say that there have been a lot of changes when it comes to the knowledge and attitudes towards tuberculosis over time (Mandal, 2014)
Tb bacteria enters the blood stream from an area where there is damaged tissues and can spread all over the body and set up many infections which appear as tiny, white tubercles within the tissues. The general signs and symptoms of tuberculosis include chills, fever, loos of appetite, night sweats, and fatigue and weight loss (Knechel, 2009)
Each of these droplets is capable of transmitting the disease since an infectious dose of TB is very small. Those with a prolonged and frequent close contact with people with TB are at high risk of becoming infected an estimated 22% infection rate (Mathema, Kurepina, Bifani, & Kreiswirth,2006)
Clinical Psychology and Gender Dysphoria Advancement of Clinical Psychology with Gender Dysphoria Clinical psychology is recognized as a psychology branch that deals with the assessment and treatment of abnormal behavior, mental illness, and psychiatric problems (Brennan, 2003)
Biology of psychology The biology of psychology applies the principles of biology in the study of psychology. This theory attempts to investigate biological processes that underlie abnormal and normal behavior (Colomb & Brembs, 2010)
There have been two different definitions from researchers in regards to intelligence. One defines intelligence as a single general ability, and the other believes that it covers a range of skills, aptitude, and talents (Miele & Molden, 2010)
A clinical psychologist will offer psychotherapy, diagnosis of mental illness, and psychological testing. Gender dysphoria refers to a condition where an individual experiences distress or discomfort because of a mismatch with their biological sex (Steensma, Biemond, de Boer, & Cohen-Kettenis, 2011)
Sigmund Freud is the pioneer of this theory in late 19th century. Freud held on the belief that a person's mind was made up of three elements namely the ego, the superego, and the id (Stern & Stern, 2013)
The humanistic theory views humanity in a positive manner, but existential theory tends to delve into the dark side of humanity. The humanistic theory came into focus in the mid-20th century as a response to Freud's psychoanalytic theory (Waterman, 2013)
Review of Literature The idea behind burnout is very important. It is a psychological issue, and it is generally related to the long-term exhaustion that comes from chronic stress (Bianchi, et al
, 2013). Burnout was coined as a term in the 1970s, but has not gotten that much attention in the mainstream literature until more recently (Freudenberger, 1974; Freudenberger & North, 1985)

The constant demands on the nurse and the daily requirements to take care of sick people who can also be very demanding can quickly take their toll on the nurse (van Dierendonck, Schaufeli, & Buunk, 1998). Once that happens, there is a lowered interest in the work that is typically done, and that can lead to carelessness and apathy (Lussier, 2006)
It should not be underestimated, and needs to be taken very seriously if anything is going to be done about it that will protect patient care. There are a number of factors that play a role in burnout, especially for care giving professions like nursing (Maslach, Schaufeli, & Leiter, 2001)

That is certainly not something that happens to every nurse, but it can be a serious problem for nurses who do experience it. When people who struggle with burnout are compared to those who are clinically depressed, it is found that symptoms are nearly identical (Schaufeli, Leiter, & Maslach, 2009)
, 2013). Some nurses choose to work part-time hours, or they find a medical facility like a doctor's office or clinic that may be less stressful for them than working in a hospital (Shirey, 2006)
Once that happens, there is a lowered interest in the work that is typically done, and that can lead to carelessness and apathy (Lussier, 2006). While it is understandable that nurses may feel that way, it is also very important to note that these feelings can affect patients and keep them from receiving the proper treatment they really need (Shirom & Melamed, 2005)
Nursing is one of those occupations. The constant demands on the nurse and the daily requirements to take care of sick people who can also be very demanding can quickly take their toll on the nurse (van Dierendonck, Schaufeli, & Buunk, 1998)
(Franz, 2009, paraphrased) Determinations for inmates to take part in the drug abuse treatment program include: (1) evidence in the Pre-Sentencing Investigation (PSI) that alcohol or other drug contributed to the commission on the offense; (2) alcohol or drug use was a reason for the crime or violation of the supervised release; and (3) the sentencing judge recommended the inmates for a drug education program while incarcerated.
