Casa De Las Campanas (Pontevedra)
The Casa de las Campanas (translated as ''House of the Bells'') is one of the three oldest buildings in the city of Pontevedra in Spain, and perhaps the oldest civil building. It is located in Don Filiberto street, at number 11, in the old town. History Due to the lack of documentation, its origins are not clear, but it is thought to belong to the late Middle Ages if we take into account the coat of arms on the façade and the style of the doors. These coats of arms link it to the lineage of the García Camba family or, more probably, to that of the Pugas, lords of Regodeigón in Ribadavia. The first existing reference to the Casa de las Campanas dates from 1587. At that time, the building was located next to the church of Saint Bartholomew the Elder, which for unknown reasons did not have a bell. For this reason, the bells of the Puga house were used to call the parishioners, which at that time already belonged to the Benedictine monks of the San Salvador de Lérez monaster ...

Nursing School
Nursing is a profession within the health care sector focused on the care of individuals, families, and communities so they may attain, maintain, or recover optimal health and quality of life. Nurses may be differentiated from other health care providers by their approach to patient care, training, and scope of practice. Nurses practice in many specialties with differing levels of prescription authority. Nurses comprise the largest component of most healthcare environments; but there is evidence of international shortages of qualified nurses. Many nurses provide care within the ordering scope of physicians, and this traditional role has shaped the public image of nurses as care providers. Nurse practitioners are nurses with a graduate degree in advanced practice nursing. They are however permitted by most jurisdictions to practice independently in a variety of settings. Since the postwar period, nurse education has undergone a process of diversification towards advanced and ...

Public Relations
Public relations (PR) is the practice of managing and disseminating information from an individual or an organization (such as a business, government agency, or a nonprofit organization) to the public in order to influence their perception. Public relations and publicity differ in that PR is controlled internally, whereas publicity is not controlled and contributed by external parties. Public relations may include an organization or individual gaining exposure to their audiences using topics of public interest and news items that do not require direct payment. The exposure mostly is media-based. This differentiates it from advertising as a form of marketing communications. Public relations aims to create or obtain coverage for clients for free, also known as earned media, rather than paying for marketing or advertising also known as paid media. But in the early 21st century, advertising is also a part of broader PR activities. An example of good public relations would be ge ...
