Abstract:

A coalition of community members and human service professionals in the rural central Shenandoah Valley of Virginia has performed a community assessment every 5 years. Overreliance on quantitative surveys and hospital-based Community Health Needs Assessments resulted in earlier assessments failing to identify the needs of vulnerable populations. As the coalition approached the time for a new assessment, their priority was to develop a deeper understanding of community health needs and solutions.

Rural community coalition members shared their perspectives on the vitality of their community in the face of adversity which revealed obstacles extension professionals can support

Given both the importance and difficulty of promoting community-based public health coalitions, their capacity for sustainable action merits systematic examination. The current study addresses this need, focusing specifically on the relational dimension of capacity, that is, how relationships both among members and with external actors affect coalition-level activity. The context is a multimethod comparative case study of two rural cancer control coalitions.

Food education initiatives exist worldwide, but Japan remains unique with its food education law known as shokuiku. The country’s impressive health metrics — high life expectancies, low obesity, and affordable health care — often lead observers to praise this approach. This book presents a more nuanced analysis. First, it challenges the assumption that food education is wholly a “good thing” by exposing underlying power mechanisms. Through food diagrams, food fairs, and school lunch programs, government ministries promote both nationalism and traditional gender roles. Second, it explores how f

Technological advancements have further enhanced access through telehealth, allowing more Americans to receive timely care.

For example, an estimated 30% of water projects in sub-Saharan Africa have failed prematurely in the last 20 years, and only 10% of cooking stove programs started in the 1980s were operational two years after startup.

This paper discusses the benefit of the multi-ducted angled rotor (M-DAR) distributed electric propulsion system in a V/STOL aircraft called the M-Star. The M-DAR propulsion system consists of an array of fixed pitched ducted fans. Traditional fan-in-wing designs can suffer from pitch up effects, stall, instability, and momentum drag when transitioning to forward flight as the oncoming air vector increases. In such planar orientations the air must accelerate rapidly into the ducted fan to prevent blade instability. The M-DAR solves these challenges by lowering the angle at which air enters the

INTRODUCTION An undervalued role of rural healthcare provision is its impact on forests and carbon balance. In addition to the effects of healthcare provision and livelihood programmes on improved human health, these programmes can also reduce forest degradation and prevent deforestation-related carbon emissions, since unaffordable healthcare drives logging as a source of rescue income.

Abstract:

Since 12 March 2020, when Kenya reported the first COVID-19 cases, the Ministry of Health confirmed a total of 45,076 cases and 839 deaths, as of 19 October.1 Despite the rising number of COVID-19 confirmed infections and deaths in Kenya during the third quarter (Q3) of 2020, the national and county governments relaxed some of the restrictions that had been in place during Q2 aimed at controlling the spread of COVID-19. This assessment was aimed at understanding the effects of COVID-19 at household level and attendant policy responses during Q3 of 2020, to inform actions to assure protection o

Abstract:

Diabetes, particularly Type 2 diabetes, affects millions of Americans with a particular burden placed on more vulnerable populations. Underlying factors (e.g., residing in low-resource rural areas) may contribute to poor health-related outcomes for persons with diabetes. This study used 2011-2015 data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), to investigate trends in diabetes rates and forgone medical care among persons with diabetes in the U.S. and to identify geographic determinants (i.e., place-based) and other social determinants of health disparities.

Abstract:

Implementation of the section 2302 of the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) enabled children enrolled in Medicaid/Children's Health Insurance Program with a prognosis of 6 months to live to use hospice care while continuing treatment for their terminal illness. Although concurrent hospice care became available more than a decade ago, little is known about the socio-demographic and health characteristics of children who received concurrent care; health care services they received while enrolled in concurrent care, their continuity, management, intensity, fragmentation; and t

Abstract:

Executive Summary: Mississippi’s aging population growth mirrors national trends and suggests a need to establish equitable and sustainable age-friendly policies and programs. This report offers an overview of the best practices from age-friendly states, which can be adapted to meet unique challenges and opportunities for Mississippi’s aging population. We highlight five age-friendly policy areas that can improve Mississippi’s livability. • Aging in Place: Best practices from California, Florida, and Massachusetts can be adapted to promote aging in place through structural changes to homes via

Abstract:

In 1999, the Honduran Ministry of Health (MOH) revised national guidelines on women’s health services delivery to allow nurse auxiliaries to insert IUDs, give DMPA injections, and take Pap smears. This policy change addresses low contraceptive use among rural women and reflects findings from a 1998 Population Council study that showed that nurse auxiliaries can safely and successfully provide these services. Under the previous guidelines, rural women had limited access to long-term family planning methods. In 2000, the Population Council and the MOH assessed the effectiveness and cost of using

Abstract:

This paper analyzes the short-term effects of the monetary crisis and natural disasters in Indonesia on women's health and nutritional status, and activities to monitor and address these problems. The monetary crisis which was announced in January 1998 hit the highest monthly inflation rate of 13 percent in February. Natural disasters that have plagued Indonesia since early 1997, including droughts and forest fires, have been projected to cause famines and an increased likelihood of infant and adult mortality. The economic crisis also directly impacts millions of workforce members threatened b

Abstract:

Almost one fifth of children under five in El Salvador are anemic because their diets contain too little iron. In rural areas, that number rises to 25 percent; the disorder extends across Central America. Iron is essential for bodies and minds to develop and resist infections and diseases. Giving children micronutrients such as iron, vitamins and zinc is one of the most efficient and cost- effective ways of improving their health. Educating families about good nutrition is key.A pharmaceutical company in El Salvador is retrofitting its plant with a $1.1 million loan from the Inter- American De

Abstract:

Up to seven million low-income Central Americans live without power, largely because of the expense of extending the grid to rural areas. Many people burn kerosene, candles or wood, which can affect health and degrade the environment. Some families spend a large portion of their income to power diesel generators. Electricity is vital for workers and entrepreneurs to become more productive and climb out of poverty.A new initiative is making clean, renewable energy available and affordable to families at the base of the pyramid in Honduras, El Salvador and Belize.
