Pornography Mark Limmer
The document discusses the perspectives of young people and pornography in the UK based on qualitative studies involving 70 young men and 25 young women. It finds that pornography is a major activity among young men, accessed through new online means. Pornography discourse reflects societal views that privilege male pleasure and present sex as consequence-free. While pornography validates some beliefs, it also creates unrealistic expectations that can disappoint and impact relationships. Pornography provides masturbation and a way to demonstrate heterosexuality for some young men. However, real change requires addressing the societal attitudes that pornography reflects in an extreme form.
NHS Reforms and the healthcare landscape
This document discusses reforms to the NHS from 2010 onward including:
1. The 2010 White Paper proposed giving GPs responsibility for commissioning and abolishing PCTs and SHAs to reduce management costs.
2. Responses from medical groups expressed concerns about risks of GP commissioning and privatization.
3. A House of Commons committee report recommended changes like broadening commissioning groups and ensuring public accountability and integration of services.
4. In response, the government committed to wider clinical involvement, stronger protections against a market system, and greater choice for patients while pursuing evolution over revolution of the NHS.
Supervised Injecting Facilities ‘The case’
Tim Bingham coordinates the Irish Needle Exchange Forum and has 22 years of experience working in harm reduction. He discusses the history and principles of harm reduction, noting it aims to reduce harms associated with drug use rather than prevent drug use. He then outlines supervised injecting facilities, explaining they provide a safe and hygienic environment for drug consumption along with access to healthcare. Studies of existing facilities in Vancouver and Sydney found they reduced overdoses, disease transmission, and public drug use without increasing local drug use. While legally complex, evidence shows supervised injection can be considered a form of drug treatment that helps connect users to other health services.

This document discusses the ethical and legal aspects of providing care to burns patients. It notes that burns injuries affect around 10,000 people in the UK annually, resulting in 650-700 deaths. When patients are unable to consent to treatment due to incompetence or being unconscious, treatment can still be provided legally and ethically based on principles of autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, and justice. Relatives cannot provide consent on behalf of incompetent adults, but their input can help ensure decisions are reasonable. Informed consent from patients or their proxies is still required whenever possible.
CosmeticSurgeryARTICLE2012
This document discusses the rise in cosmetic surgical procedures among adolescent girls aged 13 to 19 in Ontario and argues for a ban. Common procedures include breast augmentation and liposuction, which pose health risks for adolescents. The influence of mass media promoting thin ideals is a major factor in adolescent girls' body dissatisfaction and increasing demand for cosmetic surgery. Ontario has weak regulations for cosmetic surgery, without requirements for specialized training or facility approval. A ban could help address health and ethical issues until stronger policies are implemented.

Mark Lawler - European Cancer Concord and Queens University Belfast - 8th European Patients' Rights Day Brussels, May 12th 2014Patient confidentiality: Ethical and legal ramifications
This document discusses several topics relating to medical ethics, including patient confidentiality, autonomy, and beneficence. It notes that patient confidentiality is highly regulated by law in countries like the US, UK, and EU. Violations can result in civil, administrative, or criminal liability. The principle of patient autonomy means respecting a patient's right to make their own medical decisions, and violating that through actions like performing procedures without consent can constitute battery. However, doctors also have a duty of beneficence to act in the patient's best interests. The document examines some of the complex ethical dilemmas that can arise when balancing these duties.

Dr Clive Peedell, National Health Action Party, Westminster Lecture as part of the BMA Political Series, BMA House, 12th March 2015
Arm debate short final 2010
The document discusses how market-based policies have been introduced into the English NHS due to the influence of neoliberal ideology over the past 30 years. It argues that New Labour abandoned social democracy and adopted a form of Thatcherism in order to appease global financial markets. This has led the NHS to open up to market forces and privatization despite evidence that markets fail in healthcare provision. The document supports the BMA's campaign against the increasing marketization of the NHS.
NS BMS Supplement Jan 2017
This document summarizes a roundtable discussion on immuno-oncology (I-O) involving leading oncologists, patient groups, and public health experts. The participants discussed the transformative potential of I-O but also the challenges it poses, including identifying which patients will benefit, managing patient expectations, and ensuring accessible support systems for long-term treatment. They debated models for delivering I-O locally while maintaining specialist oversight and how industry could help support new delivery solutions and pathways.
Introduction to Law
This document provides an introduction to healthcare law in the UK. It discusses several key areas of law including criminal law, civil law, sources of law such as statutes and common law. It also covers legal issues that commonly arise in healthcare such as negligence, consent, data protection, and treatment disputes. The document aims to give healthcare professionals an overview of the legal issues and responsibilities they should be aware of in their practice.
Dr. Manuel Trajtenberg
The document discusses innovation in medical technologies from 1816 to the present, highlighting key milestones and advances.

Making change happen
Presentation to a European conference on injury prevention. Addresses how advocates can make change happen and why good evidence alone is often not enough to achieve policy change.
The Politics of Health Care
The document discusses the history of health policy and reform efforts in the United States over several decades. It outlines key programs and legislation from the 1900s onward that attempted to address issues of access, costs, and quality of healthcare. The document argues that meaningful reform is difficult due to the complexity of the healthcare system and the many political and economic interests involved. Future reform efforts will need to focus on reducing costs while improving quality and access.
Grassroots Patient Advocates: Unsung Heroes
This video is from a presentation made to the Presidential Advisory Council on Combating Antibiotic Resistant Bacterial (PACCARB) by Voting Member, and Patient Safety Advocate, Alicia Cole. For over a decade, Grassroots Patient Advocates have been a driving force for Safety, Transparency, and Quality Improvement in healthcare delivery. Most have been ushered into their work involuntarily through tragic experiences and have committed to building an American healthcare system that is better than when they found it. The video shares a glimpse of the work done by 50 national advocates who focus on infection prevention and control, transparency, education, and awareness.
Market Forces in NHS
The document discusses whether market forces can make the NHS more efficient. It defines efficiency as using resources effectively to meet health needs. Market forces rely on competition and self-interest to allocate resources efficiently via price signals. However, the document argues that healthcare is unsuitable for a free market due to issues like asymmetric information between patients and providers, difficulty measuring quality, supplier-induced demand, and market failure. The document examines evidence that introducing market mechanisms in other countries and the US increased costs and inequitable access without improving quality. It concludes that market forces cannot make the NHS more efficient.

Title:
Demerits of Plastic Surgery
Abstract
Plastic surgeries have become part of many individuals' beauty living standards. Thus, plastic surgeries have been developed and helped by restoration, reconstruction, or alteration of the human body by performing surgery. After that, cosmetic surgery formed and is classified as a branch of plastic surgery. Nowadays, many people are going under the knife for the sake of appearances, having one or more cosmetic surgery.
The research aims to show how plastic surgeries affected individuals and the world. Moreover, to display the factors that played a role in making plastic surgeries desirable such as social media and the high risks on health and society associated with cosmetic surgeries. The research will also discuss four cases of individuals who had cosmetic surgeries and how it impacted their life in a bad way. As more and more people have cosmetic surgeries, this research will serve as a tool to raise the knowledge of cosmetic surgeries' negative impacts on an individual and global scale. It will also give convincing evidence based on facts and statistics of why people shouldn't do cosmetic surgeries. This research will get to the root of the problem and thus serve to solve it as if you acknowledge a problem and work to fix it.
Thesis Issue
Plastic surgeries have a lot of great impacts which has also affected people who undergo this process negatively. It is reported that over 89% of people who consider plastic surgery are either unaware or have wrong information about plastic surgeries. The majority of these people are not well informed on the side effects that accompany plastic surgery. People are not concerned with carrying out research or significant information about plastic surgery. On the other hand, the plastic surgery experts are concerned with how they can have many clients to the extent of not providing preliminary information on the risks that come along with the desired results. Over 70% of plastic surgery clinics do not have pieces of equipment for emergency cases. Most of these clinics offer contractual services to experts to maximize their gains (Sung-wook and Ki-hwan 2013). Plastic surgery often causes physiological, social phobia, depression, and several plastic surgery-related disorders (Sansone & Sansone 2007). This research aims to inform about plastic surgery, demerits of plastic surgery, and a brief understanding of cosmetic surgery.

Masculinity Mark Limmer
The document discusses young men's inconsistent condom use and challenges common explanations like irresponsibility or lack of access. It analyzes how masculinity and ideas of sex influence condom use, finding that for many young men condoms are seen as inconvenient, uncomfortable or a sign they may fail sexually. The document suggests reconceptualizing condom risk for young men and shifting policy focus away from just risks of infection/pregnancy toward addressing young men's broader concerns and exploring alternative aspects of masculinity beyond sex and risk-taking.

Tony Swainston Presentation

It uses video, music, and graphics to present concepts in an easy to understand and fun way. PX2 has been launched in several countries and will be available in the UK starting in January 2009.
Masculinity Mark Limmer
The document discusses young men's inconsistent condom use and challenges common explanations like irresponsibility or lack of access. It analyzes how masculinity and ideas of sex influence condom use, finding that for many young men condoms are seen as inconvenient, uncomfortable or a sign they may fail sexually. The document suggests reconceptualizing condom risk for young men and shifting policy focus away from just risks of infection/pregnancy toward addressing young men's broader concerns and exploring alternative aspects of masculinity beyond sex and risk-taking.
Sexual Health Services Lucy Emmerson
- A survey of sexual health services in UK secondary schools found that between a quarter and a third have on-site services, ranging from advice to contraception and STI testing.
- The prevalence of on-site services varies significantly between different regions and local authorities. Some rural and urban areas have high concentrations while others have low.
- Evidence suggests that improved access to contraception through on-site services can help reduce teenage pregnancy rates. However, establishing these services faces barriers around confidentiality, staffing, and funding.
Pornography Tanja Tyden
This document summarizes a study on pornography consumption and sexual practices among Swedish adolescents. The study found that most adolescents had experienced pornography, with many consuming it weekly or daily. Male adolescents consumed pornography more frequently than females. High pornography consumers were more likely to engage in behaviors like sex with friends, anal sex, and group sex. The study suggests professionals provide updated sex education to help adolescents develop critical thinking on portrayals of sexuality and gender roles in media like pornography.
Tanja Tyden & Maria Ekstrand
This document summarizes sexual and reproductive health among teenagers and young adults in Sweden. It finds that while the mean age of first sexual intercourse is 16, risks are increasing as seen in rising abortion rates and STI infections. Factors contributing to risk include an underestimation of risk, inconsistent contraceptive use, negative attitudes towards condoms, and a perception that contraceptive responsibility primarily lies with women. Improving education, access to contraceptives and testing, and empowering young men can help address these challenges.
The Main Thread Lafa Handbook Anna Chu Chu Schindele
The handbook aims to promote sexual health and prevent sexually transmitted infections and unwanted pregnancies among young people aged 13-19. It provides theoretical perspectives and methodology for teachers and youth leaders to discuss issues related to sexuality, relationships, self-esteem, contraceptives, ethics, and risks with young people. The goal is to normalize these topics, enhance self-expression, provide credible information, and make individuals aware of their own values through open discussion and value clarification exercises.
Young People And Alcohol Brenda Fullard
The document summarizes strategies to address underage drinking in the UK, focusing on young people, parents, industry, and public drinking. It discusses:
1) Guidelines and education campaigns to help young people make responsible decisions around alcohol.
2) Advice for parents on underage drinking and evaluating family interventions.
3) Working with industry on test purchasing, sanctions for retailers breaking laws, and age verification schemes.
4) New legislation to penalize underage drinking and dispersing minors in public places, using contracts with young people and parents.
It questions if these strategies focus enough on changing behaviors and examines potential impacts of eliminating underage drinking on teenage pregnancy.
Parent Engagement Ny Style M. Howlett & J. Maloney
The document discusses a parent engagement model used in New York City schools called Parent Coordinators. The key aspects are:
1) Parent Coordinators act as liaisons between schools, parents, and support services. They provide one-on-one support to address parental issues and make referrals to additional resources.
2) By empowering parents and improving communication, the model aims to transform how parents engage with schools. It establishes schools as community hubs and strengthens partnerships between families and educators.
3) Studies found the approach improved student outcomes like attendance, behavior, and academic performance by identifying and addressing individual family needs. It also enhanced parental involvement and the responsiveness of support systems.
Priscilla Alderson
Young people's rights and well-being are important issues. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child outlines key rights for children and youth regarding provision of healthcare, education, protection from harm, and participation in decisions that affect them. Research shows that assessing competence and allowing participation depends more on a young person's experience than just their age. Promoting well-being requires challenging negative stereotypes of youth, changing life circumstances, and transforming policies around economics, education, families, communities, and crime.
Work With Neet Young Men Mohammed Khan
The document describes a board game designed by young people to educate their peers about sexual health risks. The game was created as part of a project working with disadvantaged young men in a deprived area. Barriers to engaging these young men included stigma, lack of trust, and services not meeting their needs. The project overcame barriers by building long-term relationships, ensuring youth ownership, and making the project fun and reflective of the group's interests. The board game incorporates question and scenario cards to prompt discussion of sexual health issues while gaming.
Chlamydia Monday Marta Hansson
The document summarizes Chlamydia Monday, a preventative intervention in Stockholm County, Sweden from 2003-2007. The intervention aimed to increase testing and awareness of chlamydia. It involved extended testing at various clinics on designated Mondays and an information campaign. Testing increased over the years with most participants being young women and testing due to unprotected sex. While knowledge of chlamydia improved, risk behaviors did not significantly change. However, public health authorities saw the intervention as an important first step in addressing sexually transmitted infections.
Roger Ingham
The document discusses variations in sexual behaviors and outcomes among young people globally. It notes the challenges in making cross-country comparisons due to differences in data collection methods and cultural factors. The main approaches to understanding these variations are described, including examining the impact of sex education policies, economic conditions, and social contexts. Examples from Sweden, the Netherlands, and the UK are provided to illustrate how differences in attitudes, education approaches, and social norms may influence sexual behaviors.
Anne Hoskins
This document discusses promoting wellbeing and embracing positive sexual health for children and young people. It notes that tackling inequalities in childhood can reduce health issues later in life. Schools will now be required by law to promote students' wellbeing, including protecting them from harm. The UK ranks poorly compared to other countries in measures of child wellbeing such as risky behaviors like unprotected sex and drinking. Embracing positive sexual health for youth requires participation and guidance to help lower risks while supporting youth development.
School Manchester Sven Bremberg
The document discusses the relationship between education and health in adolescents. It summarizes that few school education programs have demonstrated lasting effects on health behaviors like substance use. Individual behaviors are strongly influenced by social contexts. Additionally, educational programs aimed at adolescent sexual health have not consistently shown impacts on contraceptive use or behavior. The document advocates for a public health approach focusing on developing student competencies and empowerment rather than downstream health topics.
Out Proud And Confident Peter Smith
The document discusses initiatives to address homophobia faced by LGBT youth in schools and informal settings. It describes the Exceeding Expectations initiative, a 3-year cross-sector partnership in Manchester funded by the city council and health service. The initiative aims to support schools through resources, training, and interventions to tackle homophobic bullying. It has commissioned a theatre production called "OUTLOUD" and conducted staff training, workshops, and surveys to promote inclusion and measure impact. Feedback from schools and pupils has been positive about raising awareness of LGBT issues and the unacceptable nature of homophobia.

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.Promoting Wellbeing - Applied Social Psychology - Psychology SuperNotes
