OUR MISSION CORRUPTION-FREE WORLD

      ESSAY

 



CORRUPTION

Corruption begins when a meritorious person entering job-market to realize that nepotically hired people of lower merit are holding better positions. Or if he/she pays some reasonable amount of bribery he/she can be hired without any strict evaluation criteria. This demotivates a worthy worker from achieving the best for himself or for his organization. Professionalism decline and corruption in system aligns. Corruption although is global issue but corruption in 3rd world countries becomes huge problem for economy of the country.

SOME ROOT CAUSES

 The accountable most factor for this abrupt increase is the decrease focus of nations on petty corruption and instead complaining more and more about grand and systemic corruption. Small scale corruption being so widespread and normalized in 3rd world countries that almost every person from the Milkman who delivers milk after adulteration with water, to our grocery seller who pre-sets the weight machine. From sometimes traffic police who after taking little bribery leaves the license -less without filing challan, to some civilian who drive the road wrong-way to save petrol.. From those irresponsible civilian who does not go to cast vote, to some of  government people  who claims to evoke revolutions yet end up louting the country.

Societies these days are becoming so corrupt where breaking a law is common and greed for benefit is replacing the preoccupied morale. We break traffic signal without any hesitation, we steal and spoil the public properties in Parks, museum and misuse the facilities/programs created by government . We celebrate independence day by blocking the traffic and firing the bullets up on the sky and call ourselves patriots. And then we blame it all on the government for being corrupt.

CONCLUSION

 Corruption, is although a very familiar term of our everyday life but we use it only to highlight the losses in GDP that our government has caused and never to realize our own roles that might encourage it. Failing to realize, that abusing one’s power for one’s private gain or even any dishonesty/criminal offense undertaken to acquire illicit benefit is considered as corruption. Embezzlement is corruption where we attempt financial fraud by withholding assets to gain more money. And so is Extortion. No doubt we should always stand against corruptions like money laundering and manipulating elections. But can we accept the acquiring of fake degrees? and bribery-based grade improvements?

A single nepotically hired person can create holes in the system, leading to inefficient system which no longer can achieve timely goals appropriately. This useless delay causes huge losses to not only entire organization but also the society that it serve and eventually the economy of a country in a long run.

 SOLUTIONS

Fighting the corruption cannot happen with the swirl of magic wand. It takes patience, effort and efficient strategies to improve. Essential of all is the change of our discreet educational system. Also is the curriculum where more effort to create moral and political awareness among young future leaders should be done. Some training system and strict evaluation system for teachers like in Finland must be induced. Stricter rule of law should be imposed. Employment opportunities should be enhanced in govt organizations to enhance quality and quantity of work. Accountability system for authorities and leaders should be improved. Being a democratic country Transparency of utilization of public funds by political leaders should be maintained. And principally Judiciary and news-based Media should always be independent.

TRENDS OF VIOLENCE AGAINST HEALTH-CARE WORKER AND FACILITIES





1 INTRODUCTION 

For hundreds of years paramedical and medical workers have been competing to keep the adversities of humanity at bay. They are the true warriors without which the world couldn’t have persisted the catastrophic episodes like black  death, swine flue, bird flue, cholera, chickenpox, AIDS etc. They are the ones who cared and cured, combated and prevented , during the times of tragic situations where everyone else is advised to , ‘Stay home, Stay safe. Either it is a pharmacist of drugstore who is being verbally abused for not giving off, commonly misused medicine “without prescription” or it is the psychiatrist who deals everyday with the mentally ill patient. Either it is the emergency department physician being blamed by the family for not being able to save patient or it is a junior nurse being bullied by senior nurse of hierarchy. We see clearly that the healthcare sector is most predisposed to violence. Among which, it is the nurse and the psychiatrist who are, most susceptible to victimization because they are the ones who have direct interaction with the patients. According researches the degree interaction has direct relation with violence.  


2 VIOLENCE IN HEALTH-CARE 

 Violence is not just yelling or beating but Violence as described by WHO is "the intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual, against oneself, another person, or against a group or community, that either results in or has a high likelihood of resulting in injury, death, psychological harm, maldevelopment, or deprivation. 

It validates that violence is of many types. It could be physical or psychological. The perpetrator could be a single person or a group as in mobbing. It could be caused by a co-worker, a family member, a patient, or others. 

 On one wing where physical violence can easily be shown and being acted upon. The psychological violence is often ignored and less likely to be reported. Because it happens so often to nurses that they have even begin to accept it as the part of their jobs. According to research reports of journal of emergency nursing about 29.9% of registered nurses suffer physical violence whereas about 54.2% of registered nurses had withstand the psychological abuse (verbal abuse). For this reason, psychological violence is silent brutality, which lead health-workers to mental crises like Anxiety, depression and Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), discouraging them to work efficiently or even has led some of them to withdraw their jobs. But worst happen to the hospital which bears a greater cost of this, as they are made to hire and train new staff, also bears costs of rehabilitating services to the suffering healthcare staff members. Due to violence and bullying, immense suffering is caused to complete healthcare system and the quality of healthcare service is also considerably compromised. 


3 CONCERNS 

 Although violence at healthcare has always been there, but today why do we see a sharp rise in trends of violence in healthcare? And why most of these violence are caused by patients? Why Today ironically  we have introduced Artificial Intelligence to the world yet unable to resolve issues like bullying and assaults? Why today we reach to the point of singularity yet failed badly at achieving a psychologically balanced workplace?  

The answer to the puzzle is we have been in some way ignoring psychological health. The psychological stress that start from our faulty education system, follows us up to the level of our workplaces. How can we imagine that it will not happen at hospital setup where there is way too much interaction with suffering humanity? 


4 DISCUSSION 

When we bring patient to the primary setups we are only caring for the apparent (physical) injuries and disorders mostly, without considering the stress patient faces at hospital or any consideration of security-based emergency conditions. We never considered stress, which hold potential for so much destruction. If Temporary stress causes fatigue, then permanent stress leads to disorder. That is the reason why a lot of countries have now begun to take measures to reduce stress in specific. This is the reason that Finland does not allow exams at younger level in its education system. Another country is japan which makes certain period of vacation mandatory at workplace. Because reducing psychological stress can avoid society related issues later. 

Because along the list of factors that aggravate the healthcare violence; psychological stress and defaulted management hold the key positions. This is the reason why most of the healthcare violence is caused by PATIENTS. Because it is so easy to ignore psychological suffering. It is researches that suggest that maltreated children are more likely to indulge or accept the violence and bullying in their adulthood. It is the most crucial factor that needs caution to be taken about. 


5 CONCLUSION 

The sharp rise in trends suggest that we should now start taking measures to cut the root level causes of social collapse, for the betterment of our societies, before it is too late. In the process it is not just the management that need to be improved but also awareness from the level of educational institutes should be started. We are now in an urgent need of adopting systems like mandatoryvacations or a break and maternal leaves for our workplaces , free counsel facility , group communication based activities, awareness seminar to ‘educate’ , as it holds the potential to decrease the violence rate anywhere. It is proven by studies that more likely a bully knows of harm he is causing, the less likely he commits it again. At Last but not the least, the complete avoidance of violence in healthcare is obviously impossible. But it has the potential to become better, if we make the elements of compassion and justice through ‘education’ as a significant part
