The Discussion of Death and Dying and the Impact It Carries for All The importance of the discussion of dying is primarily tracked by patients’ needs to manage time correctly, to make the necessary arrangements, and to stay close to families. This way, clinicians not only follow the professional ethics, but consider the needs of caregivers, relatives, and others involved in care delivery.

 How Exposure to Hazardous Chemicals Risks Infant’s Health
As many countries in the world pursue economic development, there is an increased risk regarding chemicals. An infant’s health is at risk when exposed to these hazardous chemicals. For example, continued use of pesticides and other chemicals related to agriculture may affect a child’s brain and physical body. Additionally, potential toxins such as battery-recycling tasks, mercury used in seafood, or floricide used in drinking water may contribute to safety issues when it comes to infants (Hirtz et al., 2017). Lead exposure is a major challenge for infants since the brain is highly affected, making a child have redundancy in intellectual capacity.

Lead Exposure in Infants
Lead poisoning, under exposure to hazardous substances, is one of the main problems infants encounter. According to Environmental Defense and the Alliance to End Childhood Lead Poisoning, a minute amount of lead can hinder brain development. For every ten micrograms of lead per deciliter of blood, IQ falls by 6 points (Ettinger et al., 2019). Additionally, lead poisoning can lead to anemia, kidney failure, and hearing impairment. Lead gasoline has accounted for 80% of the airborne lead pollution, and that s related to the environment. As the case study shows, the infant may be exposed to lead, so there must be measures to combat the issue before it escalates further.

Health Promotion Plan
There is a need to present a framework to the parents who care for infants to protect them from hazardous chemicals and waste. Environmental issues are a major part of these risks due to the climatic change that is occurring by the day. The health promotion plan consists of three solid plans that can help promote safety and well-being for infants. First, there must be consistent awareness raising and education about infants’ health issues (“New York Center for child development”, 2022). Second, promotion for the recognition and assessment, and study of environmental factors that affect children is required. Lastly, reducing exposure to pollutants must be undertaken through regulation and using cleaner fuels and inorganic substitutes.

Recommendations Based on Awareness
To reduce accidents that may occur due to environmental subjection to chemicals, there must be the responsibility of parents, the government, and caregivers. These parties must consider a mandatory awareness of the subject matter. The government, through health agencies, should educate parents on how to use organic components at home. Parents and caregivers must learn to use the chemicals rationally to prevent high amounts of exposure (Garcia & Haile, 2017). For example, instead of using a disinfectant to clean the sink, basic cleaning agents such as soaps can be applied consistently. Additionally, healthcare programs should be created to enable communities to identify threats brought by environmental factors.

Recommendations Based on Recognition and Assessment
Studying environmental factors that affect an infant’s health is vital. That will facilitate recognition and assessment of the problem at all the core levels. There is a need to establish research centers that explore the vulnerability of infants to exposure to chemicals. For example, the research may cover collecting and disseminating data that shall be applied to institutionalize changes at home for parents and caregivers (Li et al., 2020). The evidence-based practice comprises recognition through collaboration between society and international bodies such as World Health Organization (WHO) to advance the subject matter assessment. When parents recognize measures required to prevent the issue, they can work towards eliminating any dragging factors, ensuring infant safety.
