This document discusses four models of human communication: Shannon and Weaver Model, Berlo Model, Transactional Model of Communication, and Frames of Reference. It then discusses three models of human communication: linear (bowling), interactive (ping-pong), and transactional (charades). The rest of the document outlines the meaning and purpose of human communication, including how we can cocreate cultures, be stewards of creation through symbolic reality, create life-giving communities by tasting "shalom," and become God-listening communicators.
The role of nurses in general practice has expanded significantly. Nurses now provide a wide range of clinical services including chronic disease management, lifestyle risk factor management, and health promotion. Their role has evolved from being directed by GPs to taking on more autonomous roles. While practice nursing began in the 1980s, the number of nurses working in general practice has increased dramatically in recent years due to government initiatives and a focus on primary care. Practice nurses are now key members of general practice health care teams in Australia.

Virginia's Area Agencies on Aging (AAAs) have developed innovative solutions to improve health outcomes and address the growing aging population. The AAAs offer a diverse set of both traditional and evidence-based programs delivered in-home. Their services range from meals and transportation to programs addressing chronic disease, falls prevention, and social determinants of health. By 2050, nearly 1 in 5 Americans will be over 65, with associated increases in chronic conditions and costs. The AAAs provide a unique statewide model for delivering high-quality, low-cost preventative care coordination to help seniors age in place.
Long term conditions like diabetes place a large burden on healthcare systems. A study in Yorkshire examined experiences providing care for long term conditions. It found that telehealth interventions can reduce hospital admissions, bed days, and costs while improving patients' quality of life. The Whole System Demonstrator Programme trial of telehealth and telecare in various UK regions showed a 45% reduction in mortality rates and 20% fewer emergency admissions among other benefits. Telehealth represents an opportunity to deliver more specialized care while reducing strain on hospitals and caregivers.

The document discusses the fiscal sustainability of Ontario's health care system. It notes that health care spending has been growing faster than government revenue, creating a long-term sustainability problem. It analyzes key drivers of health spending such as hospitals, physician compensation, and pharmaceutical drugs. Recent reforms aim to tie hospital funding to quality and activity levels, transition physicians away from fee-for-service payments, and reduce drug costs through generic pricing caps. However, sustaining the public health system remains an ongoing challenge.
Juma Hayombe, a Project Manager with Catholic Medical Mission Board in South Sudan, describes the organization's program to partner with traditional birth attendants to leverage human resources in the resource-limited nation of South Sudan.
The presentation summarizes The Scarborough Hospital's clinical action plan to guide its services over the next 5-10 years. It highlights recent successes in infection control and patient outcomes. The plan was created with input from staff, physicians, patients and community. It proposes developing a comprehensive cancer program and chronic disease management framework. It aims to build on the hospital's strengths and address the needs of Scarborough residents.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
