The Crime Triangle identifies three factors that create a criminal offense. Desire of a criminal to commit a crime; Target of the criminal’s desire; and the Opportunity for the crime to be committed. You can break up the Crime Triangle by not giving the criminal the Opportunity.

Restoration — repairing the harm and rebuilding relationships in the community — is the primary goal of restorative juvenile justice. Results are measured by how much repair was done rather than by how much punishment was inflicted. Crime control cannot be achieved without active involvement of the community.

There must be (1) an act or omission; (2) punishable by the Revised Penal Code; and (3) the act is performed or the omission incurred by means of dolo or culpa.

A crime rate is calculated by dividing the number of reported crimes by the total population; the result is multiplied by 100,000.

The causes of crime are complex. Poverty, parental neglect, low self-esteem, alcohol and drug abuse can be connected to why people break the law. Some are at greater risk of becoming offenders because of the circumstances into which they are born.

The Problem Analysis Triangle was derived from the routine activity approach to explaining how and why crime occurs. This theory argues that when a crime occurs, three things happen at the same time and in the same space: there is the lack of a suitable guardian to prevent the crime from happening.

Using the PAT, the provider makes observations of 3 components: appearance, work of breathing, and circulation to the skin (Figure 1). FIGURE 1. The Pediatric Assessment Triangle and its components. Appearance is delineated by the “TICLS” mnemonic: Tone, Interactiveness, Consolability, Look or Gaze, and Speech or Cry.

SARA is the acronym for Scanning, Analysis, Response and Assessment. It is essentially a rational method to systematically identify and analyse problems, develop specific responses to individual problems and subsequently assess whether the response has been successful (Weisburd et al. 2008).

Analysis, which is considered to be the heart of the problem- solving process. Assessment, which is the last stage of the problem solving process. The assessment stage is broken done into two stages that might possibly occur which are a process evaluation and an impact evaluation.

Assess circulation and perfusion Measure the heart rate, central capillary refill time and blood pressure and observe the child’s skin colour. Consider a low or high respiration rate or deteriorating mental state as a marker of inadequate circulation.

Recent findings: Clinical assessment of peripheral circulation includes physical examination by inspecting the skin for pallor or mottling, and measuring capillary refill time on finger or knee.

Circulatory Assessment: Auscultation Auscultate your patient’s blood pressure. The systolic reading reflects the pressure exerted by the left ventricle during contraction. The diastolic reading reflects the pressure in the arteries when the heart is at rest.
