Nursing
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 a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

It was designed by the Building Design Partnership. Legal delays with the purchase of the 43-acre site meant that building work did not commence until May 1971. Lack of funding became a serious problem after 1979, and slowed the commissioning of some parts of the hospital. It was well into the 1980s before the project was completed. The Queen's Medical Centre (QMC) was the first purpose-built teaching ho ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

History In the 7th century St Chad, the patron Saint of Lichfield Cathedral, visited a Fosse or a deep broad ditch located near the Telecom tower (track from Pottal Pool to Pye Green) and stopped at a gate 400 m from the Pye Green junction. From then on the area to the south was called “Chads – Moor”.

Lord Hatherton then developed Littleton Colliery to the West. The need for houses for the miners and their families then became a priority and the population of Chadsmo ...
