In the Defense of Abortion: Pro-Choice
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper presenting the weaknesses in the pro-life argument against abortion and the strengths and rights presented in the case of those for pro-choice. In the arguments presented by pro-lifers in regards to their opposition to abortion, there has been found to be inconsistent reasoning behind their definitions of morality, medical ethics, responsibility, fetus viability and the idea of “preservation of life”. The weaknesses in the pro-life arguments are considered one of the many inconsistencies which exist within society today in regards to the abortion debate. Advocates of pro-choice in regards to abortion have found that women’s decisions to have abortions are actually based on their basic human right to choose what happens to them and their bodies, obviously, but also in their basic rights to health, their responsibilities toward their unborn child and their families, the medical communities ethical responsibility to preserving the health of women, and their right to life considered above that of their unborn children.

Nursing Intervention for Family Violence
[ send me this paper ]
A 9 page paper discussing issues affecting nurses’ ability to intervene in domestic violence issues. As those who are trained in physical needs and spend the greatest amount of time in direct contact with patients, nurses occupy perhaps the best associated position from which to intervene in domestic violence. There are barriers of course, but the emergence of forensic nursing is helping to lessen those barriers. Nurses in all areas of healthcare can develop greater awareness to the signs of abuse. There still is a fine ethical line in that nurses cannot blatantly violate confidentiality. Nurses can, however, become proficient at collecting samples, taking notes and asking the right questions of the right people, always keeping the good of the patient as the uppermost goal.

Osteoporosis And Exercise: Potential For Injury
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Along with a proper diet and adequate rest, exercise is one of the most vital components of a healthful body. Indeed, exercise has become the watchword for optimum health in this ever-conscious society. Yet one cannot help but wonder if too much rigorous exercise has the potential of actually damaging the body. For example, a female marathon runner might be doing her body well by avoiding the inherent risks of osteoporosis; however, if the athlete already has the disease to some extent, how does exercise detrimentally impact her condition over a long-term basis? When one considers the fact that osteoporosis is a bone disease that causes bones to thin and weaken, eventually becoming so brittle they break from even minor injuries, it is easy to understand why the endurance level of a marathon runner – along with the level of strenuous exercise – could indicate serious injury.
