Answer:

Contemplation

Explanation:

The Stages of Change Model focuses on the decision-making of a person and is a model of intentional change. In other words, it is used when the person actively makes the decision of making a change.

The stages of this model are:

Precontemplation: People do not intend to take action in the foreseeable future (within the next 6 months). They don't even realize that their behavior is problematic.
Contemplation: People are intending to start the healthy behavior in the foreseeable future (within the next 6 months). They start to recognize that their behavior is problematic but still feel ambivalent towards changing it.
Preparation: People are ready to take action within the next 30 days. They start taking small steps toward the change and think this can lead to a healthier life.
Action: People have recently changed their behavior (within the last 6 months) and intend to keep moving forward with it. They now have healthier habits.
Maintenance: People have sustained their behavior change for over 6 months and they are working to prevent relapses.
Termination: People have no desire to return to their unhealthy behaviors and they know they won't relapse.

We can see that in the contemplation stage, people start recognizing they have a problematic behavior but they still feel ambivalent towards changing it and therefore they may be not ready to change it just yet (but they intend to start changing it in the next 6 months).

Sue smith wants to know why she has to continue taking her antibiotics even though she is feeling better. Explain the importance

yaroslaw [1]

Antibiotics begin to work right after you start taking them. However, you might not feel better for two to three days.

Most antibiotics should be taken for 7 to 14 days. Your doctor is the one who will tell you for how long you should take the antibiotic depending on the infection you have.

Although Sue is feeling better, because she might have taken the antibiotics for a few days of treatment, it’s best to finish the entire antibiotic regimen in order to fully resolve your infection. This can also help prevent antibiotic resistance. And it also prevents the bacteria to come back or the illness to be repeated.

The _____ are responsible for the perception of rapid vibrations, such as you would experience when using a hand-held massager.

Andrej [43]

The Pacinian corpuscles are responsible for the perception of rapid vibrations, such as you would experience when using a hand-held massager.

In the bone periosteum, joint capsules, pancreas and other viscera, breast, and genitals, Pacinian corpuscles are found deep in the dermis of both glabrous and hairy skin. They are structurally similar to Meissner's corpuscles. They are fast adapting mechanoreceptors that detect high-frequency vibration and deep brief (but not persistent) pressure. By being crushed, The pacinian receptors sense vibration and pressure by stimulating their internal dendrites. Skin has less Merkel's disks and Meissner's corpuscles than Pacinian corpuscles and Ruffini endings.
