I feel good that I was able to facilitate what was important to the client, and allow her to take control of her end-of-life arrangements with dignity.

In returning to your life, your children, your family and friends, I feel you will be able to rediscover this absurdism, the silliness in

Reward motivates a particular action and discourages another and this observation appears to be applicable across all ages. Growing evidence, however, reveals that older adults could be less influenced by the consequences of their behavior than younger ones and suggests that reward has greater appeal to younger adults than to older adults. Related literature supported the view that older adults were less susceptible to motivation, such as financial gain,
Nursing Theory One of the features of patient-centered care in which the patients are thought to be partners is when the patients are handed over with the help of their participation. It is very important for the nurses to understand the thinking and perspectives of their patients as this can help them in adjusting their bedside manner to suit the expectations and needs of the patients.
