Social Care Case Study

“He needed money to buy some new gear… I even pfferd to buy him a plane ticket to Fairbanks” (Page 6). This evidence shows Chris arrogance, because he was donating all his money (over 20k), giving away, then later on burning and burying his essentials he could have used throughout his journey because he didn't think he needed it, leading to his downfall. This reveals thoughout his journey, Chris was given opportunities to receive help and use his tools and money to his advantage, but he refuesed because of his independent nature and arrogance, not thinking he would need these vital supplies, and help from

He understood that Chris was a well educated and arrogant man, leading him to be full of himself, while ill equipped. Gallien described “[his] gear [as] exceedingly minimal for the harsh conditions of the interior” (Krakauer, 1997, p. 6), and rather than listen to the advice of others, Chris moved forward with his plans. He clutched onto the knowledge he gathered from the society he ran from, in a weak attempt to find individuality, which resulted in his death by starvation and late realization that “happiness [is] only real when shared” (Krakauer, 1997, p. 129). It’d be easy for someone to accept starvation as a cause of death in such a scenario, but Jon saw beyond that, allowing the reader to analyze Jon ’s own analysis of the journaling that Chris did.

Management of Care Case Study Josepha is working on a medical surgical unit with three other RNs and one LPN. There is also a male and a female patient care tech. Josepha has been a nurse for four months, and after completing two months of orientation she takes a full assignment as a registered nurse. Josepha feels that the assignments she receives are not always fair, as she tends to get the most challenging clients.

He wants to escape his past, leave his family and start something new. His numerous tests of both his physical and mental abilities are proof of his determination. Simplifying and doing what he wants was what he knew he had to do to make the most out of his life. Chris’ relationship with his parents is not good, this was one reason why he went on his journey. He refuses gifts from the family during his graduation which upsets his father.

But his mom would talk to teacher and make sure Chris got the grade he thought he should have earned. Another example was when Billie and Walt McCandless offered to pay for Chris’s law school. Highly offended, Chris declines the offer. I believe Chris was searching for something and thought

At the fault of his father, he reacted rashly. “When Walt’s double life came to light, the revelations inflicted deep wounds. All parties suffered terrible.” This would be a negative turning point in anyone's life, but Chris was wrong to just pack up and take himself to his death.

His parents were very wealthy and materialistic, even offering to buy him a new car for his graduation which Chris refused. Chris was very angry at his parents, particularly his father for living a double life, and this toxic relationship could have been one of the main reason Chris decided to disappear into the wild. He even described in a letter written to his sister that he had to be “real careful not to accept any gifts from them in the future because they will think they have bought [Chris’s] respect,” (McCandless 21.) I never fully understood why Chris held the grudge with his parents that he did but my best guess would be that they were very hardworking people and never really took the time to understand Chris’s simplicity and accept that he was happy without to riches and the fancy cars, but with adventure and the rush he got in living life to the

In the midst of all of this he finds a balance by focusing on what really matters. At the same time this keeps him focused on his main goal which is education. Education will be his family's way out of poverty. Through seeing his younger brother that is unemployed and will be having a child soon he looks beyond this and is genuinely proud of where he comes from. He realizes how strong his family is when he seems them fighting through poverty and making things.

Chris came from a rich and caring family which some would say is the reason he took this approach to go live in the wild for potentially years, alone. On the contrary, the man from the story “to build a fire” clearly did not come from much wealth considering he was willing to travel in the coldest parts of Canada to attempt to find gold. However, the man decided to travel with his dog that had little to no major influence on him, on his adventure to find his friends. However, Chris brought little to nothing with

Chris keep saying that he does not want all those “things” from his parents. Obviously, Chris does not care much about material wealth and therefore he is too sick and tired of the society and his surrounding which

Another situation, where Chris 's hamartia plays a role in his moral downfall, is when he comes to a conclusion that living a life with Chloe would best benefit him, since she is wealthy and loves him dearly. Thus, his everlasting greed endeavors him to gamble his lavish lifestyle with Chloe over his love life with Nola, thinking that happiness can only be bought with money. In addition, the amount of agony Chris suffers on a daily basis, is much worse if he was to die; since he is unable to look at his baby with joy, yet acknowledges that he must live the rest of his life with

It’s beyond a battle to make the best of my life with chronic illness. “Life is just not fair.” I am not always able to make plans because I don’t know if I will be able to follow through. I don’t know what the future holds because I have to take life as it comes. I can only be hopeful, and I am.

They seems to forget that most people is troubled by something, though it may not be something big. I think that Chris was not a selfish man who turned his back on everything. First of all, I think that what he did was not selfish, except

People believed that he ate potato seeds that were possibly poisonous (Hedysarum Alpinum) due to it being a resource around and he was starving. Chris wouldn’t have known they were poisonous but he most likely wouldn’t have eaten them if he would have accepting money, food, or have been better prepared. They think the seeds cause his stomach to weaken then eventually his body weakened, at one point he was too weak to leave the bus to try to go find food. If Chris would have saved some of the $24,000 or kept his map he would have had a better chance of

Motivation drives him to struggle until the very end to get rid of this situation. With motivation, Chris had succeed even without biological needs such as food, water, and shelter. Besides, Chris also motivate his son to protect his dream during his free time with his son playing basketball. He motivates his son by saying “Hey. Don’t ever let somebody tell you… You can’t do something.
