You don 't come cross anaphylactic shock often, but you still have to be aware. Other severe adverse reactions that could include a fever and skin blistering; these usually occur within an hour of the medications being administered.

* working with person centred values – these may include things that are specific to the individual, their rights and dignity should be respected at all times. Individuals have the values of any person in the world; rights, independence, privacy, dignity, choices for every aspect of life, partnership & individuality should all be respected in order for a person to have their own values met. If all these things are met for the individual, then the likelihood of abuse may be reduced due to the person being able to make his/her own decisions in everyday tasks E.G. choosing clothing/meals/activities. Each individual whether in care or not has the expectation to be listened to and their choices respected, if this is not done, then the

‘If I suspect abuse through noticing a sign of physical abuse or change in the behaviour of an individual, I will make sure that I ask the individual what has happened telling the individual the changes that I have noticed. If it is in my place of work and the name of the person that abused the individual is known, whether staff or another service user, I must also record and report this. I will listen to the individual carefully; it is up to them to tell me, I would not ask them any questions about this as this is not part of my job role and would stay calm.I will make sure that I record what the individual tells me using the individual’s own words. I will make sure that I reassure the individual and explain that their safety is the most important and that it is my duty of care to tell the manager. I will make sure that I let my manager know what has happened immediately and pass

Abuse is a very sensitive subject to speak about, as we all know, it happens around the world everyday under our noses. But when it does happen and we are made aware of it, we begin to realise just how bad abuse is and can be. But what is abuse? Why does abuse happen? And how can we recognise abuse when it is taking place?

Therefore, it is essential to have proper observation skills and knowledge to identify and recognise the signs of abuse. Being in health and social sector, we should have courage to whistle blow and report the incidents of abuse. Even if we have a doubt, it is always better to raise the concerns to the appropriate body.

“Fear is the main source of superstition, and one of the main resources of cruelty. To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom.” –Bertrand Russell. To sum up how the abused feel is unfathomable due to everything they go through. The beating, the hiding, the fear, and the vulnerability these people go through day to day fearing to say anything because their abuser may find out and take their anger out on them. The

I liked how your post emphasized the importance of officers needing to be trained in handling domestic violence victims. Their communication with the victim is crucial when getting key information about what has happened and further detail on victim's relationship with the abuser. A lot of times the victim may be scared or in shock to tell the truth about what has happened, so it is necessary to separate each party in order for each person to feel safe in telling their side of the

Which is why my innate curiosity directed my research to: ‘Identifying the signs of emotional and psychological abuse’. Subsequently leading to my finding of: ‘What can be done to stop the emotional and psychological abuse’. Then concluding with: ‘Overcoming victim-identity or

Many individuals who are victims of abuse do not realize they are in an abusive situation because they associate it with violence. They think that because their intimate partner is not causing them physical harm that they are not abused. The truth is abuse includes behaviors like using demeaning slurs, or shaming, refusing to listen, blaming, and neglecting are all signs of ill-treatment when done continuously. Non-violent abuse identified when the inappropriate behavior is part of the ongoing repeated practice. It is what is considered to be mental or emotional abuse. Any actions that cause another person to cower in areas of their life can be considered abuse if the behavior is reoccurring.

Humiliation – An abuser will do everything he or she can to make you feel bad about yourself or defective in some way. After all, if you believe you're insignificant and that no one else will want you, you're less likely to leave. Insults, name-calling, shaming, and public put-downs are all arsenals of abuse aimed to eat away at your self-esteem and make you feel ineffective.

Verbal and nonverbal language can cause a lot of damage to victims of emotional and psychological abuse. Emotional abuse caused more damaged and hurt the victims more than physical abuse (Seff, Beaulaurier, and Newman, 2008). Emotional abuse is harder to identify since it is hard to discriminate. Victims are less likely to report emotional abuse because they will not have any physical proof to show to police officers (Seff et al., 2008). Victims do not want to be seen as if they are calling the police because their significant other is being mean to them. The police officers might or might not arrive to the scene and if they do they will not have evidence to arrest the abusers. Physical abuse can be proved by bruises or marks but there is no
