This document discusses issues related to families providing long-term care for aging parents. It notes that increased lifespans are leading to greater needs for long-term care, which can be very expensive. While some argue families should be responsible for parents' care, others worry about the financial burden and the potential for abuse. The document also examines policies around paying family caregivers and whether consumer direction programs, where families are paid to provide care at home, could become more widespread.

This document summarizes research from The Spirit Level by Richard Wilkinson and Kate Pickett showing that health and social problems are worse in countries and within countries with larger income gaps between rich and poor. It presents data across countries and US states demonstrating that life expectancy, infant mortality, homicide, imprisonment, obesity, mental illness, and other issues correlate more strongly with income inequality than average national income. The research suggests that greater inequality is associated with increased status competition, stress, and erosion of social cohesion, which in turn impact health and well-being.

Homeless
In 2008, there were approximately 86,189 homeless individuals in Michigan, including 17,576 children representing 20% of the homeless population. Michigan is divided into 8 regions, and statistics on homelessness in each region can be found at www.thecampaigntoendhomelessness.com. Families with children make up 50% of the homeless population, with the average family income being $730 per month and 38% having incomes less than $500 monthly.
CPPP_KinshipCare
This document discusses kinship care in Texas, where over 250,000 children live with relatives or family friends instead of their parents. Most of these informal kinship care arrangements receive no financial assistance from the state. The document outlines various public benefit programs that can help kinship families, but notes that many caregivers face barriers to accessing support and the benefits may be insufficient. It recommends establishing a kinship navigator program and outreach efforts to help families learn about and apply for assistance programs. Overall, the document argues that kinship caregivers need more support from Texas to adequately care for the children in their homes.

Baltimore County Communities For The Homeless 2008
This document discusses myths and facts about homelessness in Baltimore County. It finds that the most common myth is that homeless people just don't want to work, but in reality almost 1 in 5 homeless persons has a job. It also finds that there are more people needing shelter than available beds. The largest cause of homelessness in the county is an inability to pay rent or insufficient income. Over 6,000 homeless individuals were identified in 2008 in Baltimore County, with 70% being women and children.
Caregiving Statistics
The document provides statistics on family caregivers and caregiving in the United States. It finds that over 65 million Americans provide unpaid care to loved ones each year, with the typical caregiver being a 49-year-old woman caring for her elderly mother. Caregiving has significant economic and health impacts, as caregivers have lower incomes and are more likely to have physical and mental health problems. Caregiving also affects employment, with many workers needing to take time off or make adjustments to their schedules to provide care.
Kinship in Florida 12-16
This document discusses kinship care in Florida. There are three types of caregivers for children - foster parents, relative caregivers appointed by a court, and informal kinship caregivers. Over 500,000 children in Florida live with grandparents or other relatives, with 345,000 living with relative caregivers and 145,000 in informal kinship arrangements. The problems include a lack of process for notifying family when children enter foster care, difficulty for family to gain custody after a child is placed in foster care, and inequalities in subsidies that provide more funding to foster families than relative or kinship caregivers. To address these issues, the document calls for laws requiring family notification before placements, equalizing subsidies between caregiver groups,

Arizona Moves Backward on Health Care Coverage
Nearly 10,000 working parents in Arizona are scheduled to lose their health insurance through the KidsCare Parents program on September 30, 2009 due to the state legislature's failure to appropriate funding. This will negatively impact families' health and strain community health centers. Advocates call on lawmakers to understand how their budget cuts have real life consequences for families who may be forced to quit jobs or spend down savings to qualify for Medicaid instead of paying premiums under KidsCare Parents.

Universal health care has been debated for decades in the United States, as millions of Americans lack health insurance coverage due to high costs. Those with lower incomes working in service jobs deserve healthcare access to live comfortably. Families can also lose coverage if a spouse loses their job. There should be options for those who can no longer afford insurance due to financial problems. The United States is the only wealthy nation without universal healthcare, and around 47 million Americans were uninsured in 2006 primarily due to high costs.

MO*lezing Richard Wilkinson: "Waarom gelijkheid beter is voor iedereen"
Op dinsdag 12 april 2011 gaf professor Richard Wilkinson in een uitverkochte Beursschouwburg een boeiende MO*lezing over gelijkheid en ongelijkheid.

Physical violence against women
Bride burning is often a result of dowry demands not being met by the bride's family. To avoid having daughters and the financial burden of dowry, some families terminate female fetuses. While now illegal, dowry is still commonly practiced, and failure to meet dowry demands can result in violence and murder of the bride. Child marriage remains common in some areas and has negative health impacts on young brides. Together, these factors contribute to high dowry death rates in countries like India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh.
Fighting Poverty In The United States
The document discusses poverty in the United States and issues facing the working poor. It notes that over 37 million people lived in poverty in 2005 according to the Census Bureau. Many work but still require supplemental assistance due to low wages that have not kept up with costs of living. Inequality also exists as on average men make $10,000 more annually than women. Lack of health insurance puts nearly 47 million people at risk of financial ruin from medical costs, with states like Texas having over 24% of workers uninsured. The minimum wage has only increased $1.80 over 15 years while costs of living have risen steadily.
Prof wilkinson presentation
This document summarizes research showing that more equal societies tend to have better outcomes on measures of health and social problems. It presents data showing that within wealthy countries, life expectancy and child well-being are more strongly linked to income inequality than average national income. Charts and studies are presented showing links between inequality and higher rates of issues like mental illness, homicides, teenage births, and lower social mobility. The research suggests that reducing inequality through policies like progressive taxes, stronger unions, and more shared company ownership could generate benefits including improved population health and sustainability.

The document discusses changes that have occurred to families in recent decades, including increases in divorce rates, cohabitation, and births outside of marriage. This has contributed to greater family diversity with more lone-parent families, stepfamilies, and people living alone or without children. Reasons proposed for these changes include developments like the legalization and destigmatization of divorce, women's rising economic independence, and declining religious influence in society.

1) Children with same-sex parents are less likely to have private health insurance compared to children with married opposite-sex parents.
2) Disparities in private health insurance coverage are reduced for children with same-sex parents living in states that allow same-sex marriage, civil unions, or second-parent adoptions.
3) The findings support policies endorsed by the American Academy of Pediatrics to promote health equity for children with same-sex parents through legalizing same-sex marriage and second-parent adoptions.
SEITC_Policy_Brief_021710
This document discusses the economic challenges facing many of West Virginia's working families and proposes establishing a State Earned Income Tax Credit (SEITC) to help address these issues. It notes that over 300,000 residents live below the poverty level, including 87,000 children, and that stagnant wages, rising costs of living, and tax structure have contributed to families' struggles. A SEITC modeled after successful programs in other states could provide additional income to an estimated 90,000 households and promote greater economic security, particularly for those with incomes just above the poverty line.
Social problems in family
The document discusses social problems related to family disorganization in India. It begins by defining key terms like social, organized, family types, marriage types, and causes of social disorganization. It then discusses issues like dowry, child marriage, domestic violence, and gender discrimination as some major social problems in India resulting from breakdown in family organization. It provides context on the traditions and laws around these issues. In summary, it analyzes factors contributing to family disorganization in India and examines some resulting social issues like dowry practices, child marriage, and domestic violence.
My notes family
This document summarizes key concepts from a chapter about families from the textbook "You May Ask Yourself" by Dalton Conley. It discusses several topics:
1) It describes different family structures like nuclear families, extended families, and how the traditional nuclear family model is not universal.
2) It discusses factors that influence mate selection like legal and cultural factors beyond individual attraction.
3) It outlines changes in families over time, like the shift to more public work during the Industrial Revolution that devalued domestic work traditionally done by women.
4) It also examines diversity in families including trends in marriage, divorce, and non-traditional family structures in modern Western societies.
Unexpected pregnancy
More than 3 million unintended pregnancies occur in the US each year. While contraceptives are used by many, inconsistent or incorrect use results in about half of unintended pregnancies. Insurance may not cover pregnancy or related costs, though government assistance is available for those with low incomes. There remains debate around the legality and stigma of abortion in the US.

SAC360 Chapter 10 the resurgence of infectious diseases
This document discusses the resurgence of infectious diseases. It covers topics like HIV/AIDS, how it originated and spreads, and treatments developed. It also discusses other emerging viruses like Ebola, factors that lead to new diseases, and challenges from antibiotic-resistant bacteria and influenza. Public health responses are outlined to help address surveillance, vaccines, and reducing inappropriate antibiotic use. Bioterrorism is also mentioned as a threat that utilizes similar response approaches.
Research Ethics 20th Nov 09 Arec
The document discusses the definition and scope of ethics. It examines ethics as a code of behavior that governs conduct, drawing from universal values found in documents like the Hippocratic Oath. While laws, religion and regulations provide rules of what to do or not do, ethics considers universal human values and what is intrinsically right or wrong. The document also notes challenges with research ethics committees and reviews examples of questionable or unnecessary research to explore the role and responsibilities of ethics.

The document discusses the healthcare administration industry. Key responsibilities include maintaining member profiles, processing enrollment applications and verifying eligibility. Prompt service and efficient processing are important for developing the industry. As administrators, organizations should process healthcare enrollment and claims without financial risk or compromising data accuracy. Third party administrators play a prominent role in administering or outsourcing certain responsibilities like claims processing and premium collection. The industry depends on healthcare professionals providing services to benefit patients.
Healthcare Communication and Management in the Changing World
This document discusses healthcare communication and management. It covers complex responsive processes and viewing organizations as living systems. It also discusses the seven da Vincian principles of art/science, curiosity, feeling/sensation, demonstration, soft/mellow, coronary/artery, and connection. These principles can help with healthcare leadership. The document also discusses using continued education units for training staff and managing things like anger, grief, and charismatic managers. Overall it promotes improving communication between administration, medical staff, and patients.
Com theroy exam 2
The chapter discusses several theories of discourse and interaction, including speech act theory, coordinated management of meaning theory, communication accommodation theory, and expectancy violation theory.
Speech act theory examines how language is used to perform actions through five types of speech acts: assertives, directives, commissives, expressives, and declaratives. Coordinated management of meaning theory explores how meanings are created, coordinated, and managed through rules and patterns of interaction. Communication accommodation theory addresses how people modify their communication behavior, such as speech patterns, to match or diverge from others. Expectancy violation theory focuses on how expectations shape interactions and the effects of violating expectations.
Ethics for Introduction to Health Care
Ethics in healthcare go beyond what is legal and provide moral guidelines to assist in complex decision making. Some examples of ethical issues include deciding who receives organ transplants, discontinuing life support, and how much care to provide uninsured patients. Ethics principles include doing no harm, preserving life, treating all patients equally, respecting patient choices, and maintaining professional standards of care. Patients have rights to considerate care, informed consent, privacy, and participation in advanced directives to refuse treatment.
Morals and ethics
The document discusses morals, ethics, and key ethical concepts relevant to nursing. It defines morals as based on religious beliefs and social norms, while ethics refers to the standards and methods of a profession. Key ethical concepts for nursing discussed include autonomy, beneficence, nonmaleficence, justice, fidelity, veracity, and rights. Autonomy involves respecting a patient's right to make their own decisions. Beneficence means doing good, while nonmaleficence means avoiding harm. Justice refers to fairness, and fidelity means fulfilling one's responsibilities.
PHI 204 - Ethical Issues in Health Care: Virtue Ethics, Feminist Ethics
Virtue ethics focuses on the character and motivation of the moral agent rather than the specific actions. It believes good actions stem from having a virtuous character. Feminist ethics is concerned with the rights and welfare of all women. It advocates for women's control over their own bodies and lives, and seeks to establish equality between women and men in society and institutions through addressing imbalances of power. For example, women were historically underrepresented in heart disease clinical trials, resulting in ignorance about how common it is in postmenopausal women. Feminist ethics emerged to remedy injustices against women and establish equality for women in medical research and practice.

Copyright and Ethics In Digital Age
This document discusses copyright and ethics in the digital age. It notes that technologies have changed how we interact with and produce cultural works. Where the 20th century model focused on consumers, the digital age allows everyone to be both consumers and producers. However, this has led to tensions between a culture of freely shared ideas versus intellectual property. The document also provides an overview of copyright law and discusses how digital technologies have enabled a "read-write-rip-burn culture" that the legal system has not fully addressed yet.
Ethics lesson 4
The document discusses several theories of ethics including utilitarianism, rights, justice, and egoism. Utilitarianism examines the costs and benefits of actions to determine the greatest good. It can ignore individual rights and is focused on efficiency. Rights theory focuses on allowing individuals to freely pursue actions without interference from others. Justice looks at the fair distribution of costs and benefits among groups. Egoism judges actions based on their effects on an individual's interests. The document also provides an analytical approach to ethical problems by considering utility, rights, and justice.
Bio ethic
This document provides an introduction to key concepts in bioethics, nursing ethics, and ethical decision-making. It discusses bioethics principles like autonomy, beneficence, nonmaleficence, and justice. It also examines ethical issues that nurses face, including moral suffering, moral anguish, and navigating nurse-patient-family and nurse-nurse relationships. Critical thinking skills like moral imagination and reflection are presented as important for ethical nursing practice and decision-making. Models for ethical analysis and working as part of a healthcare team are also introduced.
Ethical Boundaries
The document discusses ethical issues and principles in healthcare, including:
- The importance of ethics first being recognized with Hippocrates' oath 2500 years ago.
- Professional codes of ethics set standards for different healthcare professions to promote patient welfare.
- Laws are often based on ethical principles to enforce standards around issues like confidentiality, though sometimes laws conflict with personal ethics like on abortion.
- Healthcare workers should follow legal standards for patient care even if it conflicts with their own ethics.
- Organ transplants involve complex ethical decisions around who receives donated organs.

Grand families.org --14-state-of-grandfamilies-report-final
This document summarizes information about grandfamilies in the United States. It states that approximately 7.8 million children live in grandfamilies, often due to job loss, illness, death, substance abuse or incarceration of parents. Grandfamilies provide kinship care to keep children out of the foster care system, saving taxpayers over $4 billion per year. Grandparents and other relatives who take on caregiving duties unexpectedly face challenges in meeting the needs of the children, and they have higher rates of poverty than non-caregiving grandparents. The document discusses the needs of both children and caregivers in grandfamilies and outlines some of the supports available, such as government benefits, community programs, and tax credits.

Transitional living programs aim to prevent youth aging out of the foster care system from becoming homeless by providing housing and support services. Such programs are needed due to rising numbers of older youth in foster care without permanent placements and cuts to other social services. The presenter outlines different housing models for transitional living programs and what research shows works best, including youth involvement, connections to other agencies, flexibility, and focus on realistic outcomes rather than zero tolerance.
Natural care: it's in our nature
Care, caring, and caregiver are words used to describe those who take care of family members or friends out of love. These terms are also used by those who are paid to help and support others. This is confusing on a number of fronts.
One: there is a big difference between being paid to provide care versus not expecting and not receiving financial compensation.
Two: the policy discussions and funding decisions tend to focus on professional and paid care provided by non profits, governments or institutions as if they were the only ones. This paid sector receives the bulk of the financial resources allocated by governments. In this regard, natural care is playing teeter totter with an elephant.
That the dimensions, requirements and scale of natural care is invisible is a serious public policy issue. We have relegated it as a private matter. In fact, it defines us as a species, as a country, as a society, as an individual.
Providers of natural care need resources to support themselves and the people they are caring for. It is a matter of decency, natural justice and our collective survival. This serious matter should be a high public policy priority.

Elder Health Care What Will It Look Like Tomorrow and How Much Will It Cost
The document discusses the history and future of elder health care. It notes that the elderly population is rapidly increasing as baby boomers age, putting pressure on existing systems. A wide variety of senior housing and care options have emerged like assisted living facilities and in-home care to help older adults who don't need nursing homes live more independently. The costs of elder care vary significantly depending on the type of care and region. Planning and understanding options is important to avoid high costs and ensure one's needs are met as they age. The future is predicted to see a decline in nursing home care and expansion of memory care, along with greater means testing for government benefits.
Advocacy
This document discusses extending support for youth transitioning from foster care. It notes that 42% of young adults aged 20-29 live at home with parents, but youth leaving foster care at age 18 have no one for support. Extending care would save the province money according to a report. The document advocates extending financial and other tangible support through age 21 and engaging stakeholders like foster youth groups to advocate for this change through hearings and involvement opportunities for people.
Advocating for extended care for youths transitioning.
This document discusses extending support for youths transitioning from foster care. Currently, support is tapered off at age 21 but extending it could save the province money in the long run. Many youths feel unprepared to be on their own after care ends. The document advocates for continuing financial, housing, and other tangible supports along with assistance with decision making and emotional support. Stakeholders that could help include a provincial advocate for children and youths and a group of former foster youths. The document suggests ways for readers to get involved like attending transitional care hearings.
Pilsen Group _ BarriersPreventingEnrollment
1) The document discusses a study on the barriers preventing Mexican-Americans from obtaining health insurance under the Affordable Care Act. It identifies differences among generational groups (Millennials, Gen X/Boomers, older adults) in their motives for seeking insurance and barriers faced.
2) Millennials struggle finding reasons to seek insurance and have difficulties completing applications. Gen X/Boomers lacked knowledge about desired coverage options, while older adults faced challenges providing documentation and maintaining medications without coverage.
3) All groups demonstrated a lack of understanding about the Affordable Care Act and its requirements. The study utilized interviews with community health workers to understand these generational perspectives and identify how to improve outreach and assistance
Alternatives to nursing homes
The document discusses alternatives to nursing home care as the population of younger patients in nursing homes is growing. It notes that many younger patients could be cared for at home or in assisted living facilities instead of nursing homes. However, budget cuts have led states to prioritize short-term nursing home care over long-term home care. While home care is more cost-effective long-term, it is more expensive initially as caregivers need training. The document advocates that with legal advocacy, many younger patients have alternatives to nursing home care like independent living facilities or at-home care.
Pol 195 policy brief
This policy brief examines the challenges facing elderly women and affordable housing in California. As the state's population ages, women will represent a larger share of seniors due to longer life expectancy. Elderly women are more vulnerable than men as they tend to have less retirement savings from lower lifetime earnings and careers interrupted by caregiving. They are also more likely to be single or widowed. The brief calls for increased housing assistance programs to help seniors age in place and recognizes the contributions of elderly women through unpaid caregiving work.

Long term care provides support services for those who need assistance with daily living over an extended period of time, often older adults. Services include skilled nursing facilities, assisted living, home care, hospice, respite care, and adult day care. As the population ages, demand for long term care is increasing while availability of informal family caregivers is decreasing. The future will require diversifying and expanding long term care services to meet a wide range of needs within the community-based settings preferred by most.

Navigating the Senior Care Journey
As adults age, they often need assistance with daily tasks. This does not automatically mean a nursing home. There are many options to consider, and this powerpoint will help outline all of them.
The Sandwich Generation
The document discusses the challenges faced by the "sandwich generation" - individuals who care for both their aging parents and their own children. As people live longer, families are more multigenerational. This puts a strain on middle-aged adults who must balance the needs of elderly parents with their career and children. Women especially struggle as most caregivers. Without support, the mental and physical health of caregivers suffers from stress. Counselors can help by focusing on resilience and using strength-based questions about family relationships, responsibilities, needs met and neglected, and finding laughter amid challenges.

Poor management, lack of career growth, and poor communication are cited as the top reasons employees leave organizations.
