While the culture of poverty has usually been identified as a negative concept, we will reveal the true definition and its implications for child welfare. This workshop will focus on participants gaining the tools necessary to work with developmentally traumatized children and their families in a "culture of poverty."
Suzette Fromm-Reed, PhD & Wytress Richardson, EdD Presentation at 2016 Science of HOPE
Description:
The purpose of this presentation is to explore the implications of research that examined community buffers to Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and consider how to build and sustain organizational and community resilience. Specifically, findings will be explored indicating community buffers were at least as important as individual level resilience and are needed to sustain the impact of individual level resilience. The study examined: 1. Adult surveys from Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), (N=30,000), 2. Youth surveys examining risk and protective factors (N= 200,000) and 3. Public agency data (from merged social, health and education agency databases) for different communities (N=120) in Washington State (all merged data for 2009-2012 by the Foundation for Healthy Generations in Seattle, funded by the Gates Foundation and presented by external consultants). The intent of this presentation is to engage in a dialogue about the implications of the findings.

Vignette Five (3-4 page response)
Anna, is an 83-years old Native-American woman who lives alone, and takes numerous medications for heart disease, COPD and an anxiety disorder. Recently, Anna has fallen several times, but has sustained only minor bruising. Anna’s daughter Betty and her husband have been discussing whether or not Anna should continue to live alone. Anna is quite independent although she no longer drives and is occasionally “forgetful” about family birthdays and appointments. Anna has expressed her concerns about retirement community, assisted living, or nursing home living as she does not feel comfortable in strange situations. Betty wonders if she should decrease her work hours in order to spend more time at her mother’s house. Betty and her husband are considering having someone live with Anna part time or full time, but she worries about her mother’s safety and her mother’s distrust of strangers. Finances are also an issue and Betty is seeking information and referral resources to assist the family’s informed decisions.
The decision about where and how to provide care for family members who have chronic conditions is emotionally charged and multifaceted. Reliance on family members as care providers creates multiple stressors for the family. What types of stressors might Anna, Betty, and other family members experience?
What are potential/actual policy, legal, ethical, emotional, financial, and spiritual issues that Anna’s family may experience? What resources can you offer to them?
Client and family education is “critical to successful coping with chronic illnesses.” Clinicians must carefully approach every client and family who may be similar in some respects to others, yet be quite distinct. The clinician must consider characteristics such as age, culture, socioeconomic status, functional status, motivation, self-efficacy, and learning capability. How will this assessment information guide your work with Anna and Betty? What developmental stage characteristics do you need ...
Autism and Life Transitions: Hard Lessons Learned & Taught as a Person-Center...Cheryl Ryan Chan
In December of 2015, I presented this webinar to members of the National Association for Dual Diagnoses (thenadd.org). I've been conducting Person-Centered Plans for 4 years, and over that time I've seen a number of disturbing trends around the lack of understanding and planning for preparedness in transitioning students; in particular, in the areas of independent skill building specific to the anticipated environment, and personal safety skills. I feel it's important to talk about what I've observed and how my team of co-facilitators and I have identified and tackled these issues within the PCP process. I hope that the "lessons learned" will assist people in planning for IEP/ISP goals that can help maximize success. I offer it free to anyone who would like to attend.
Transforming Media Messaging About Mental Illness Through News, Entertainment...Nedra Kline Weinreich
Presentation by Nedra Kline Weinreich
Weinreich Communications / Entertainment Industries Council
National Conference on Health Communication, Marketing and Media
Atlanta, GA
August 19, 2014
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent
