Infant Mortality: Current Situation
[ send me this paper ]
16 pages in length. With the ongoing technological advancements in the medical field, it is difficult to believe that infant mortality is still so prevalent in today's society. However, it is this very technology that provides the opportunity to avert infant death that is being overlooked as a means by which to address the issue. Statistics indicate that infant mortality is primarily a socio-cultural epidemic, in that appropriate medical attention is gravely lacking in low-income and minority communities. Genetic disturbance represents yet another population in which infant mortality is experienced, no matter the individual's race or financial status. Genetically induced infant mortality is often not detected until well into the third trimester, a point at which termination of pregnancy is both a health risk for the mother and a morally painful decision to make. Bibliography lists 19 sources.

Initial Organized Substance Abuse Intervention
[ send me this paper ]
An 11 page paper that describes the pre-intervention assessment methods and the facts behind the substance abuse habits of a loving but highly angry 16-year-old boy. Bill is the product of pugnacious and alcoholic homes, and trying his best to stay away from the drugs to which he feels so drawn. He is constantly in trouble at school; his dark anger brought him to juvenile court on assault charges filed by his stepmother. Bill's assessment revealed that his risk levels were not so severe that state-supported inpatient treatment could be justified, but it was clear he could not return either to his mother's or father's home. He did have an alternative, and one that worked for him. Bill is a very real character; the paper contains no fiction. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Journal Article Critique
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. The research question for this study is whether or not there exists ethnic disparity when it comes to meeting the needs for alcoholism, drug abuse and mental health care. The authors' hypothesis, which is based upon results from prior findings on the subject, supports the clearly stated research question by not only seeking to determine if there is ethnic disparity but also to what extent it does, in fact, exist.
