  • Optimizing the Home Healthcare System

    Optimizing the Home Healthcare System

    Home healthcare providers are eliminating the need for chronically ill patients to make constant hospital visits. By providing services to patients who have difficulty performing everyday tasks in their homes, hospitals have been able to cut down on readmission rates. Organizations such as Medicare and Medicaid reimburse hospitals that show low patient readmission rates, so home healthcare providers are doing them a huge favor.

    Seeing that over 70 percent of U.S. citizens aged 65+ require some form of long-term care, it becomes obvious that home health companies will become very profitable in the near future. This infographic presented by ClickSoftware further explains the need within our healthcare system for these providers.

  • The Online Revolution

    The Online Revolution

    With approximately 2,405,518,376 Internet users in the world, it’s safe to say that the web has had a substantial impact on the world and the ways in which people live and interact. As the number of Internet users grow, the world changes.

    Millions of moms now have an outlet for their creativity with the introduction of Pinterest. Approximately 5 million stay-at-home-moms are using the site in the United States.

    The Internet opens up learning opportunities. More than 6.7 million people take at lease one online course and there is now a number of massive open online courses taught by Ivy League professors. Thanks to MOOCS, people can taste Ivy League education for free.

    The power of hacktivism played a huge part in changing the face of politics. Wikileaks’ release of 251,287 classified documents initiated the Arab Spring which eventually led to the overthrow of Egypt and of Tunisia. Overthrow of Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak was organized through Twitter and the Tunisian revolution was documented by Tunisian bloggers. Social media was used as a way to spread rebellious inspiration — videos and photographs of state brutality. It also served to spread logistical information of when and where to protest.

    In this infographic, BestCommunicationsDegrees.com explores the ways in which the Internet and its users have changed the face of the world.

  • The Value of a Well-Armed Citizenry

    The Value of a Well-Armed Citizenry

    “A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.” These words, the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, are at the center of the great debate that is currently gripping the nation.

    Gun control may be seen as part of an effort to eviscerate individual sovereignty and replace it with dependence on the state. The Second Amendment was designed to prevent enslavement from the state and the Founders understood that the right to bear arms is fundamental and essential to maintaining liberty.

    In this infographic, CriminalJusticeDegreeHub.com takes a good look at why strict gun control laws would only harm the nation and infringe upon basic rights.
