Improving Access to Oral Health Care for Vulnerable People living in Canadasaskohc
This document summarizes a report by a Canadian panel that evaluated access to oral healthcare for vulnerable groups. The panel found that vulnerable groups have the highest oral health issues but lowest access to care. The current public and private systems do not effectively provide reasonable access to care for all vulnerable Canadians. The panel recommends developing evidence-based standards of care, planning personnel and delivery systems to provide this care across diverse settings, financing necessary resources, and monitoring outcomes to improve access for all Canadians.
The document discusses the results of a survey given to Drexel graduate students from various health-related programs regarding collaboration in the US healthcare system. Most respondents agreed that collaboration is needed to address issues like rising costs.

CHWs & care transitions c rush - asa 3-24-15Carl Rush
This document discusses the role of community health workers (CHWs) in geriatric care. It begins by defining CHWs according to the American Public Health Association as frontline public health workers who serve as liaisons between health services and their communities by providing outreach, education, informal counseling, social support, and advocacy. The document then outlines key strengths of CHWs for geriatric care like developing trust with patients, addressing social determinants of health, and providing social support. It explores roles for CHWs in chronic disease management, care transitions, falls prevention, and senior centers. Studies show CHWs have potential to reduce costs and hospital readmissions when utilized in these areas.
What is the link between compassion, patient safety and quality of careanne spencer
This document discusses the link between compassion, patient safety, and quality of care in nursing. It defines each concept and argues that compassion, safety, and quality are interlinked. Compassion requires time, empathy, and responsiveness from caregivers. Patient safety involves preventing errors and minimizing adverse events through a culture of safety and systems approaches. Quality of care has dimensions of access and effectiveness of both clinical and interpersonal care. The document concludes that many attributes required for compassionate care, like listening and patient-centeredness, also support safe, high-quality care delivery.

The document proposes using a development impact bond to improve health outcomes for HIV-positive adolescents in Rwanda. It would create peer support networks and life skills training, use financial incentives to improve medication adherence, and measure outcomes like increased antiretroviral therapy adherence and reduced hospitalizations. Private investors, donors, and organizations would fund the 5-year program, with performance payments made after 2 and 5 years based on whether results indicators are achieved.
This document discusses universal health care (UHC) and the importance of considering gender as a social determinant of health. It notes that UHC is a key topic in global health discussions and aims to achieve equity, but gender has received uneven attention. It presents a framework that shows how gendered social and structural determinants can lead to differential exposures, vulnerabilities, and health outcomes. For UHC to be equitable, pathways to achieving it must address whose health problems are prioritized and how they are addressed in a gender-sensitive way. Location and timing of services, access, accountability, and non-discrimination are important to engender the healthcare system. Engagement in post-2015 discussions is important to link sexual and reproductive health activists
Telemedicine involves the use of electronic communication and information technologies to provide clinical health care at a distance. It allows health care professionals to evaluate, diagnose and treat patients remotely by transmitting medical information such as images, live videos and data. Telemedicine provides benefits such as improved access to care, lower costs, and better education of professionals and patients. However, it also presents some risks if private medical information is hacked or if it replaces in-person relationships between providers and patients.

The document proposes a partnership program called HERO that aims to improve the health, environment, and human rights of South African miners. It would involve corporations, government, and community working together. Key aspects include pooling funds for healthcare, training community health workers, recognizing companies that meet standards with a HERO Seal, and using incentives to achieve health outcomes like reducing HIV and TB. The program takes an integrated approach to address miners' health, environmental, and human rights issues in a comprehensive and sustainable way.
The document proposes a sustainable solution to bridge the divide between mines and communities in South Africa. It consists of three initiatives:
1) The Dust Initiative aims to prevent respiratory disease in miners through engineering controls and health screening.
2) The Community Transformation Project aims to promote integration through community development agreements, converting hostels to family units, and local procurement.
3) Miner Compensation Reform aims to protect miners by improving awareness, access, and structure of the compensation system through regional offices and comprehensive reform.
The proposal argues that by implementing these three initiatives to prevent harm, promote community development, and protect miners, the mining industry's impact and relationship with communities can be improved in South Africa.

With nurses and midwives providing the majority of health care globally, nursing education in all countries must
prepare students for broader responsibilities to move the agenda forward for equitable care and universal health
coverage. Columbia University School of Nursing developed and implemented a vibrant approach to curriculum
transformation that included a new didactic course followed by a program of global clinical experiences to
expand students' learning environments in global health. Program planning included defining learning objec-
tives, mobilizing support within the school, establishing new sites, recruiting and preparing students, overseeing
of students with host institutions, and evaluating the program. A total of twenty-four students were placed over
five sites for a six-week credit-bearing global clinical experience. Students had varied clinical experiences with
new understandings of the reality of health disparities. Host sites expressed a commitment to have students
return in the next year, and all students stated that they would chose a global experience again. This innovation
provides a transformative addition to nursing education with a deepened understanding of health disparities and
nursing roles in different health systems. It strengthens the school's network of nursing and midwifery educators
and opens doors for new exchanges.
Introduction
Nurses and midwives provide the majority of clinical care around
the world. Their roles and responsibilities are substantial in advancing
the global mandate to provide health care for all and universal health
coverage. The health care environment has rapidly moved from a na-
tional to global focus, influenced by increased technological advances,
record migrations of people and increased disparities, necessitating a
framework for global equity. Nursing and midwifery education needs to
prepare students to assume broader roles in the global environment
with competencies that include a rigorous understanding of the orga-
nization of health systems and access to resources, leadership skills, and
advocacy for the most marginalized populations to ensure equitable
health care as a fundamental human right (Wilson et al., 2016). The
Global Strategic Directions for Nursing and Midwifery 2016–2020, re-
cently released by the World Health Organization, states: “Nurses… are
critical in achieving global mandates such as universal health coverage
and the Sustainable Development Goals. The mandates provide a
challenge as well as an opportuni ...
This document discusses the three pillars of health policy: access, quality, and cost. It defines key concepts related to access such as availability, affordability, and acceptability. Models for determining access like Andersen's Behavioral Model and the Eight Factor Model are presented. Quality is discussed in terms of measures like infant mortality and factors like safety, effectiveness, and disparities. Cost drivers and strategies for lowering costs through prevention and care coordination are also examined.
Capacity building in EcoHealth: Experiences and evaluation of training using ...ILRI
The document discusses capacity building in an EcoHealth approach using a learning-by-doing model. It describes training conducted within the EcoZD project in Southeast Asia between academic and non-academic partners. The project aimed to foster transdisciplinary collaboration on priority zoonotic diseases through hands-on research experience. Challenges included adopting a new paradigm and limited initial capacity, while solutions involved mentoring and establishing EcoHealth resource centers for continued training. Outcomes were measured using participatory tools to assess uptake of EcoHealth principles by project teams and stakeholders.
This document discusses medical student electives in developing countries. It notes potential benefits like exposure to rare diseases and personal growth, but also flags ethical issues. Electives could exploit local health systems and raise false expectations. They may perpetuate neo-colonial practices by benefiting students and health systems in wealthy countries more than local populations. The document also examines how non-governmental organizations can undermine public health systems and calls for electives to minimize harm, respect local needs, and establish long-term exchange programs to provide mutual benefit.
Similar to Ethics of Short-term Experiences Abroad and Sustainable Solutions: Parmi Suchdev (20)
This document summarizes a needs assessment conducted in Bangkok, Thailand to inform diabetes prevention efforts. Surveys found exercise was the top perceived need, with 28.9% reporting no exercise. However, participants noted a lack of community spaces and access barriers to physical activity. While organizers were concerned about a lack of cooperation and commitment to community-centered programs. The needs assessment identifies structural and participation barriers to address to effectively promote diabetes prevention in the community.
This document summarizes strategies used to undermine public acceptance of climate change science and discusses ways to more effectively engage the public on this issue. It notes that corporate interests have funded front groups and think tanks to manufacture doubt about climate science and make lack of certainty a political issue. As a result, news media often portray climate science as a two-sided controversy when there is actually a scientific consensus. It suggests joining online networks for information and action, developing new communication strategies, and promoting a values-based debate around climate solutions rather than perpetuating manufactured controversies.
The document discusses accountability for global health efforts. It asks if governments of poor countries are accountable for not spending more on domestic health and if so, to whom. It also asks if international organizations like the IMF and World Bank are accountable for policies that discourage health spending and if rich country governments are accountable for not providing more international health aid. It notes challenges to mutual accountability given both national and international responsibilities for health.
Understanding the Effect of the GAVI Initiative on Reported Vaccination Cover...UWGlobalHealth
This document discusses the critical role of health metrics and evaluation in ensuring accountability, transparency and reducing corruption in global health. It provides two examples: tracking childhood immunization coverage shows investments have increased coverage gradually over 20 years but initiatives can lead to over-reporting; India's conditional cash transfer program for facility births increased coverage and likely reduced mortality, but quality issues remain. Overall, independent monitoring of health indicators and evaluation of programs is needed to show resources are having their intended impact.
Foreign funding to NGOs in Nicaragua has undermined their accountability to grassroots organizations and limited their ability to catalyze social change. Due to short-term funding cycles tied to donor priorities, NGOs are more accountable to foreign donors than the communities they are meant to serve. This has contributed to a façade of civil society dominated by urban NGO elites rather than empowered grassroots organizations. As a result, NGOs have had minimal policy impact and have demobilized, rather than empowered, the people. Long-term funding structures that strengthen accountability to local constituencies may help NGOs better support grassroots organizations and social movements.

Perspectives and Controversies surrounding human rightsUWGlobalHealth
This document discusses the right to health from a human rights perspective. It begins by defining key concepts like health, human rights, and the relationship between health and human rights. It then examines how the right to health is established under international law through conventions like the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. The document also summarizes commentary on the right to health from the UN Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. Finally, it discusses some controversies and challenges regarding a human rights-based approach to health, such as issues of universality and developing appropriate indicators.
Politics and Health Reform:Lessons From a Year in Washington, D.C.UWGlobalHealth
This document summarizes the history of health reform efforts in the United States from the late 19th century to 2009. It discusses how a national health insurance system has been proposed since the 1880s but consistently opposed by groups like the AMA and insurance industry. The US now spends over twice as much per capita on healthcare as other OECD countries but has lower life expectancy and more administrative waste. Creating a universal, publicly financed system could reduce costs while improving access and outcomes.

Dr. Richard Chaisson, Professor of Medicine, Epidemiology and International Health and Director of the Center for Tuberculosis Research at the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore was the keynote Jan. 19 as part of the Washington Global Health Discovery Series. His talk was on ""What Will It Take To Control TB?"
This document discusses health as a societal right. It begins by discussing how health has traditionally been viewed as an individual responsibility but argues that there are no biological reasons why entire populations cannot be healthy. It then explores how health can be considered a societal or human right. The document examines how determinants of health are influenced by societal factors like inequality and poverty rather than just individual behaviors or access to healthcare. Overall, it promotes a view of health as a societal issue that governments should aim to improve and protect for entire populations, rather than just an individual concern.
"The Aid Enclave: Mapping and Emerging Geography of Global Health"UWGlobalHealth
The document discusses how global health initiatives have led to the emergence of "aid enclaves" - self-contained areas focused on health research and aid that become isolated from their surroundings. It describes how these enclaves develop through economic, political, and ethical processes. Economically, they exist as tax-free zones that offer higher pay and privileges to foreigners compared to locals. Politically, they represent a return to colonial-style projects. Ethically, they position themselves as spaces of biomedical and moral correctness but may marginalize local healing practices. The document critiques how enclaves can act as "parasites" detached from the communities they aim to serve.
1) The US ranks last among seven countries in overall health system performance and ranks last or near last on most measures of health care quality, access, efficiency, and equity.
2) While the US spends much more per capita on health care than other countries, it has poorer population health outcomes and shorter life expectancies.
3) Rising health care costs are consuming an increasing share of family budgets in the US. The percentage of families spending over 10% and over 25% of pre-tax income on health care doubled from 2000 to 2008.
"The Health System and Aid Effectives: Sudan's Experience"UWGlobalHealth
The document summarizes Sudan's health system and aid effectiveness. It provides background on Sudan's location and history as a 4000 year old civilization. It then discusses Sudan's socio-economic context, including its potentially rich natural resources and decentralization of services. The health delivery system is described as providing free healthcare, with increasing expenditures over time. Main health issues are outlined and data is given on international NGO presence and beneficiaries across regions. The document concludes with some of the challenges facing Sudan's health system.
The IHOP program allows medical students to spend 8 weeks in a developing country to learn about global health challenges. Students conduct a community health assessment and partner with local organizations to address health needs. The experience aims to provide cultural immersion and help students understand how to incorporate global health into their careers. Students are responsible for costs of $3,000-$5,000 and must complete assignments while abroad and after returning. Strong applicants have a genuine interest in global health and experience with underserved populations.
The document summarizes health reforms in Mexico from 1943-2004, with a focus on the 2004 reform that established the Health Social Protection System. It overviews declining mortality rates and increasing life expectancy over time. Key aspects of the 2004 reform included establishing universal health care coverage, separating financing from service provision, defining an essential benefits package, and increasing accountability through performance measurement. The reform reorganized Mexico's health system to improve access, quality, and financial protection for all citizens.
The document discusses health care systems and funding in Mozambique. It outlines the various sectors involved in health including public, private, NGOs, and traditional/alternative care. It also describes the types of funding for health care including vertical, horizontal, and diagonal funding. Vertical funding for specific diseases has increased from organizations like PEPFAR, Global Fund, and foundations. While this funding has increased dramatically, questions remain about whether NGOs effectively strengthen health systems or divert resources and can fragment services.
The document summarizes research into how NGOs are implementing a voluntary Code of Conduct for Health Systems Strengthening. Interviews found that while most signatories are aware of the Code and value its principles, they still face challenges adhering to provisions around hiring health workers from ministries of health and matching government salaries. Some promising practices discussed include building workforce capacity through training, advocating for improved public sector opportunities, and coordinating hiring and compensation policies among NGOs. Overall, signatories are committed to the Code's goals but continuing to test practical solutions for balancing them with operational needs.
The document discusses the erosion of public sector health systems and increased privatization. It argues that without strong public sectors, healthcare will be inequitable and exclude the poor, rural communities, and marginalized groups. Public health measures also risk being neglected. It examines factors driving privatization like international financial institutions and private sector interests, and argues the private sector did not compensate for declines in public investment as hoped.
The document discusses PATH's approach to collaborating with private sector partners to advance global health technologies. It focuses on PATH bringing expertise in developing country health systems and strategic relationships, while partners contribute product development expertise, intellectual property, and distribution systems. The collaboration aims to improve availability, accessibility, and affordability of important health products for public health programs.
