The community health nurse is performing a well baby check on a nine month old infant, the child is due for ro
The community health nurse is performing a well baby check on a nine month old infant, the child is due for routine immunizations. The mother who speaks little English is hesitant to give consent for the immunizations; she indicates through an interpreter that immunizations for an infant are prohibited in her culture. The nurse is aware that there is an outbreak of pertussis in the neighborhood where this family lives. Discuss the ethical dilemma using the principles of autonomy, beneficence, nonmaleficence, and justice; consider the nurse, the mother, the infant, & the community.

the health nurse needs to find an interpreter who speaks her language to explain the risk of not getting the vaccine and ease her fears of getting it.

you should do your own school work!!!

Her culture is in another country. If she wants her children to go to school in the US they really should have their shots. If they want to live in the US they need to follow US laws, not the laws in their homeland.

Nope. And even if health care was denied on the spot...Medi-Cal is only a form away.
2 :
I have never heard of a health care provider that has ever denied a child services. It just goes against everything they stand for, and I hope I never see it come to that in my country.

thanks for giving me a star for interesting question

Not as of yet but, we probably will in the near future.

a question about the child health care veto

a question about the child health care veto?
Why did Bush veto the child healthcare bill?
Government - 5 Answers
Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions :
1 :
Congress expanded the income qualification limit substaintially, above and beyond what Bush felt was necesary.
2 :
Because the Democrats had added in a bunch of other programs. It would have let millions of working people making $80,000 a year in on the insurance. Then they could have cancelled the insurance they already had. You and I would have to pay for their insurance then and OURS. It was the first step to socialized medicine and thank God he realized it and vetoed the bill.
3 :
cuz he doesnt give a crap about americas kids they arent voters yet and social security is in the toilet .....
4 :
Because the healthcare providers and drug companies are among Bush's biggest contributors, and their profits are his top priorities in the matter. All the other excuses he gave are pretexts. He will never sign a bill that might regulate the profits of his buddies in the health care industry.
5 :
The child health care bill (aka SCHIP) exists already, this was for expansion of the program to cover middle-income families. Bush is willing to expand the program, just not to the extent that it is being proposed. He believes that it should be only for the poor children, just as it is now.

Can my 23-year-old child stay on my health insurance coverage even if offered insurance in her new job

Can my 23-year-old child stay on my health insurance coverage even if offered insurance in her new job?
My 23-year-old daughter was just hired for a new full-time job. Rather than spend money on health insurance, can she turn it down and stay as a dependent on my coverage until age 25? I'm in Maryland, if that matters.

No. If she has a job that offers benefits she does not qualify to be added to her parent's policy.
2 :
No. If she's offered insurance at her new job, she isn't eligible for coverage under your policy.
3 :
You can do as a friend of mine did and pay her the amount that they will deduct out of her paycheck for health insurance so that she has coverage. My friend whose son is age 19, making over $60,000 a year, did not want to pay $200 per month for his employers health insurance, so his parents have reimbursed him $200 each month so that he is covered. The odd thing about this case is that this kid has had heart and brain problems the last 2 years that the doctors were unable to diagnose him and he had brain surgery last week. Kids just see that "X" amount is deducted from their paycheck and prefer to keep the money to themselves vs buying health insurance, since they believe they will never need it. Since she will be eligible for health insurance in her job, she will not be eligible to be on your own employer, so it might be cheaper to reimburse her the amount they will deduct vs if she has an emergency and then you might end up helping her pay off the medical bills if she fails to buy health insurance.
4 :
~~No the law says she must take the group coverage her job offers.~~ www.healthreform.gov
5 :
It really depends on if your health insurance plan is considered a "Grandfathered Plan." If it is, then she will not be eligible for your coverage. If it is not, then there is no stipulation that she not have other insurance available. Your employer must provide you with a statement about the Grandfathered status of your health plan--if they haven't yet, call and ask the Benefits or HR department.

i think its up to the owner of the policy to decide. They pay the premium and if he is really your step-dad (as in, he's married to your mum, not just dating her) it should be fine. My dad has his step-kids on his health insurance...
2 :
Hi there, I carried my step-son on my insurance for 8 years...it was in Texas and there was never a problem because his father was mandated in his divorce to pay for medical insurance for the son.
3 :
Generally stepchildren are treated the same as biological children for insurance purposes. But check your policy.
4 :
Not true. Yes, you can add a stepchild to your health insurance. It's done ALL THE TIME.

Bills like no child left behind and the new health care aren't constitutional right

Bills like no child left behind and the new health care aren't constitutional right?
We have a federal government, not unitary, or a confederacy. Thus powers were given to the national government and to the states. Enumerated Powers (National Government): primarily the ability to coin money and create a national defense though there are more. Concurrent Powers (shared by both National and State) Taxation Reserved (State) Police, education, welfare Yet we are allowing the national government to have control of these powers? Its in the 10th amendment that the reserved powers are for the States. These bills are not constitutional right? The national government now mandates in some cases how many police officers will be hired per area, has passed this no child left behind, and now health care... all three of the main state powers and we are allowing the national government to take over them?

The Bush/Republican "No Child Left Behind" Act is a complete failure (ask ANY educator). but it was legal (Constitutional). PLEASE do EVERYTHING you can to keep Republicans out of power long enough to clean up all the messes they left behind! (at least 12 years)
2 :
You are starting from YOUR theory of what the Constitution says, and using that theory to conclude that bills which have passed constitutional muster in the Supreme Court are invalid. No Child Left Behind is Constitution because it doesn't force the states to do anything. It merely conditions state receipt of federal aid on certain performance benchmarks. Which is perfectly fine.
3 :
Well, since no decisions have been offered by the Supreme Court regarding No Child, Health Care, etc., as of today they are perfectly Constitutional.
4 :
See: Implied Powers http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implied_powers
5 :
The US Supreme Court would have to make that decision.`
6 :
The Federal Government can, and will do, whatever it pleases.....if you want to change what it does, either run for office yourself, or vote for someone else... it's an elected government...
7 :
Yes, both are PLAINLY unconstitutional. This is why BOTH were Democrat written and had little or no Republican support. Bush signed NCLB and the very Democrats who WROTE it immediately decided it was evil and distanced themselves from it and claimed it was Bush's bill. Democrats like Billy, firewomen, Sophie and Steve do NOT believe The Constitution says what it says. They ACTUALLY believe it says whatever a liberal (ONLY a liberal) Judge says it says, even if that means it simultaneously says different and mutually excluding things for two different cases. Billy's "special" interpretation of NCLB ignores the fact that no lawful power for the needed appropriations exists. They don't see any need for government to obey the law and in fact OBJECT whenever it does. They demand the "might-makes-right" plan: the Feds CAN do it (not legally, I just mean they are physically able) so it's O.K. if they DO.
