RC #2 Glyph Reflection

My second glyph was almost identical to the first one I made, when I was a MOT 1. The main difference between my two glyphs was the face shape. This portion of the drawing was about how you believe someone becomes a leader. Is it an inborn trait, or does it stem from nurture over nature? My first drawing I drew a square head which is symbolic of the nurture over nature, and then the second drawing I drew a triangle head which was symbolic of leadership qualities being an inborn personality trait. In actuality I believe leadership qualities are a good mixture between the two, thus my indecisiveness. If I were to do the drawing again I would draw both since I am so back and forth between the two options. I also drew my hair a little differently. The question is what is more important in a leader. Curly hair symbolized creativity and straight hair symbolized organization. On the first go round I don't think I realized this question was on a continuum basis. Obviously creativity and organization are both important to be a successful leader. I feel like most of these questions are not black and white and are very continuum based. This was definitely an interesting experiment, and I enjoyed seeing how I've grown and differ in mindset from a year and a half ago.

Dupree Aging and Sexual Health

I learned a lot from the lecture on Aging and Sexual Health. I really liked the approach that Dr. Valli took on aging and sexual health; she helped take some of the confusion and awkwardness out of the subject. Sexuality is a sensitive topic even when age is not a factor, but talking about sexuality with the geriatric population can prove even more uncomfortable for both parties. Why is this? In my opinion it is a lack of information, and comfort around the subject. It was helpful hearing from a sex therapist that there is no normal when it comes to sexuality, so expressing this to our clients may help relax them when bringing up this subject with them. Also I feel like the generation in the elderly role has attributed shame and guilt around sex especially being in the “Bible belt.” It was interesting to learn about the differences between males and females and how they respond sexually, it is also interesting to me how psychological sex is and understanding that can help client intera

Dupree Malnutrition

I learned a lot of things about malnutrition from the guest lecturer. Malnutrition comes in many different forms. Even if a person is getting in calories even excess calories, this doesn’t mean they are nourished. I found this to be a very important point. I have known this fact, but I was reminded of how not everyone knows this. It’s so important to educate both the clients and their caretakers about nutrition, especially when they are hospitalized. Being hospitalized atrpohy sets in quick, and it is difficult to impossible for a body to heal when they aren’t receiving the nutrients they need to feed their bodies. I never realized the importance of protein for a healing body, and how that can make or break a clients healing potential. The intervention idea I have for a single client is a nutrition journal. For many people especially the elderly malnutrition can come from not paying attention to what they are putting in or not putting into their bodies. Having someone write down and
