Covid-19 Impact
Get PDFIn March 2020, I was a freshman in high school living one of the most exciting years of my life. Making new friends and quickly adapting to an exciting environment was amazing until it ended. At first I was confused but mostly ecstatic to have two workless weeks at home. Covid-19 was a blessing at first until I realized the fatal threat this pandemic proposed

Neuroprotection Through Positioning Neonates in the Critical Care Setting
Get PDFOn the neonatal intensive care unit at Greenwich, new positioners, known as the dandelions, allow for nurses to reposition patients in an easier manner. Most nurses had expressed that they were used to using rolled blankets or towels as a way to position in the past; therefore, the nurses expressed some confusion on the importance of these new positioners and how they can provide better support for neurological development. It is important to educate the unit nurses on the importance of positioning with the dandelion in order to support the infants neurologically as well as physically
The Use of Rapid Motor Imitation Antecedent Training For Increasing Spoken Phonology In Minimally Speaking Autistic Preschoolers
Get PDFMany children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) fail to acquire spoken language (Tager-Flusberg & Kasari, 2013) with spoken language predicting positive outcomes (Tager-Flusberg, 2016). Thus, the more evidence-based interventions available to clinicians, the more likely these children will acquire language. This project proposes to evaluate the effectiveness of Rapid Motor Imitation Antecedent Training (RMIA) for improving speech production in preschoolers with ASD. Twenty children, 3-4 years, diagnosed with ASD and exhibiting restricted spoken phonemic repertoires, will be recruited from early intervention programs. Participants will be randomly assigned to either an immediate treatment group or a delayed treatment group. The delayed treatment group will act as the control group. Each participant will complete a pre-treatment evaluation that includes a developmental assessment measuring nonverbal problem solving, motor and language skills, a standardized articulation test along with a speech production sample that will be phonetically transcribed. The intervention will consist of RMIA sessions conducted three times a week for 45-minutes over a 12-week period. An additional speech sample will be collected and transcribed following treatment to be used as the outcome measure. To evaluate the effects of treatment, pre- and post-treatment speech samples from the treatment and delayed (control) groups will be compared using repeated measures t-tests. It is hypothesized that the treatment group will add a greater number of phonemes to their repertoire compared to the delayed (control) group. Successful implementation of this intervention could provide an additional clinical tool for improving spoken language outcomes among children with ASD
Women in Medicine: Midwives, Witchery, and Power in the Colonial Era
Get PDFWomen in Medicine: Midwives, Witchery, and Power in the Colonial Era delves into the intricate relationships between gender roles, societal standards, midwifery, and the development of medical practices by analyzing the involvement of men in midwifery, a domain traditionally dominated by women. The integration of men into female-centric spaces reveals contradictions in societal norms of the era. This study explores how this integration not only mirrors but also worsens the moral decline of society, raising concerns about the impact on women\u27s behavior and social values. Additionally, it discusses witch accusations and the exploitation of midwives\u27 shortcomings for political purposes and highlights the ongoing struggle for gender equality in healthcare. By examining historical health practices and the persecution of women who challenged male-dominated structures, this paper offers insightful perspectives on the intersection of gender, society, and medicine
