Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To describe the role of the clinical pharmacist in a Hansen's disease (HD, leprosy) clinic and to describe the development, validation, and operation of a dapsone compliance monitoring program. RATIONALE: HD remains a major, worldwide healthcare problem. Dapsone is the drug of choice for treatment of HD; however, high rates of noncompliance with this agent have been reported by many treatment centers. The assessment of compliance in HD patients is important to help distinguish between treatment failure secondary to noncompliance or to the development of resistance. SETTING: In the US, the Chicago Regional Hansen's Disease Center at the University of Illinois at Chicago is one of ten centers that provide comprehensive care to patients diagnosed with this condition. This article reviews the clinical pharmacy services and dapsone compliance program in the clinic encompassing the years 1983–93. RESULTS: The clinical pharmacist provides a variety of clinical services in the clinic as well as coordinating the clinical research program. A pharmacist-generated dapsone compliance program led to improvement in compliance rates and clinical outcome. This improvement in compliance has been sustained over an extended period of time. CONCLUSIONS: The clinical pharmacy services performed in the HD clinic provide a model for pharmacy involvement in other chronic disease states. The dapsone compliance program has been successful in improving patient care and obtaining reimbursement for clinical pharmacy services.

Abstract:
Abstract Objectives Conducting evaluations of health promotion programs are imperative to determine the program's impact and explore possible improvements in content and delivery. This study's objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of CATCH program, delivered by dietetic interns and Northern Illinois University (NIU) students, to third through fifth graders in Northern Illinois, in increasing their nutrition knowledge and healthy choices behavior. Methods In total, 167 elementary school children in grades third through fifth in Northern Illinois participated in a non-experimental program evaluation study. We delivered six CATCH lessons throughout the academic year to five elementary schools. Lessons were focused on ‘Go, Slow, Whoa’ food categories to help children understand healthier food choices. Validated questionnaires from the CATCH Global Foundation were administered in classrooms and online pre- and post-intervention to assess nutritional knowledge and healthy choices behavior. Results Children in third through fifth grades significantly increased their knowledge about nutrient-dense foods (P < .001 for each grade). Fourth and fifth graders exhibited a significant increase in their ability to make healthier food choices, P = .03 and P = .007 respectively. As grade level increased from third to fifth grade, improvement in nutrition knowledge and adoption of healthy food choices did not increase significantly; third to fourth grade, P = .973 and fourth to fifth grade, P = .637. Conclusions We conclude that children in grades third through fifth who participated in the six lessons of the CATCH program expanded their nutritional knowledge and improved their ability to make healthier choices. This study demonstrates the potential benefits of communiversity collaborations for nutrition education in schools. However, higher grades did not show a greater increase in knowledge or more improvement in making healthy choices than lower grades. Future research should examine the same cohort of children over three years of participation to determine the accumulation of knowledge and behavior improvement. Funding Sources Northwestern Medicine Kishwaukee Health Center in DeKalb, IL and Northern Illinois University provided funds to procure supplies and cover printing cost of evaluation surveys.

Abstract:
This paper captures the correlation between the choices of health insurance and pension insurance using the bivariate probit model and then studies the effect of wealth and health on insurance choice. Our empirical evidence shows that people who participate in a health care program are more likely to participate in a pension plan at the same time, while wealth and health have different effects on the choices of the health care program and the pension program. Generally, the higher an individual’s wealth level is, the more likelihood he will participate in a health care program; but wealth has no effect on the participation of pension. Health status has opposite effects on choices of health care programs and pension plans; the poorer an individual’s health is, the more likely he is to participate in health care programs, while the better health he enjoys, the more likely he is to participate in pension plans. When the investigation scope narrows down to commercial insurance, there is only a significant effect of health status on commercial health insurance. The commercial insurance choice and the insurance choice of the agricultural population are more complicated.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to assess elementary school nutrition programs in a rural county in southern Illinois. The researcher interviewed the food service managers of eight schools and completed the School Health Index (SHI) based on their responses. Eighty-seven percent of the schools did not have venues such as vending machines outside the cafeteria. Three food service managers stated that from 75% to 80% of the students in the district ate lunch in the cafeteria. The SHI corresponds to the eight components of a coordinated school health program; nutrition services are just one of the eight components. The SHI is a tool that can be used to identify strengths and weaknesses in the nutrition program. It covers items from healthy, low-fat choices to food preparation and cafeteria practices. School nurses can work with teachers and food service personnel to create nutrition programs and a curriculum related to healthy nutrition practices.

Abstract:
The chapter argues that deficit spending is useful but scattershot tax cuts are not very effective. Rich people and business owners often do other things with new money than create good jobs. Government should directly create jobs in the public, nonprofit, and private sectors. An umbrella program, such as the proposed Humphrey-Hawkins 21st Century Full Employment and Training Act, must guarantee jobs for all and especially for people in distressed communities. Specific focuses include infrastructure repair, more subsidies for weatherizing low-income dwellings and enlarging Head Start, money for wind farms, affordable housing, and bolstering the Affordable Care Act, which has been a job creator. The chapter uses opinion surveys and analyzes Democratic and Republican values to weigh support levels for programs that guarantee full employment.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the Direct Funding Program of Ontario's Self-Managed Attendant Services. The evident willingness of self-managers and personal attendants to engage in relational work and the still unmet labor market security of workers were both necessary for self-managers to realize the Direct Funding Program's promise of flexibility. However, within a context of insufficient funding and little to no collective backing, this program produced labor market insecurity for workers, in the form of insufficient hours, earnings, and protection. Moreover, the position of workers in the broader racialized and gendered labor market shaped their labor market choices, or lack thereof, and shaped their experience at the intimate level. Failing to address broader racialized and gendered labor market insecurity not only has implications for workers who are less able to negotiate what they do and how. It also limits the progressive potential to value all forms of intimate labor and to rethink skill.

Abstract:
The next area to consider is what aspects of school life to include in the system. In some cases, the topics covered by a monitoring system are predetermined by the state, district, or funder. For instance, schools that have tobacco- prevention grants are required to monitor patterns of student tobacco use. Other times, the school is given at least some flexibility. Schools need to choose what topics to include at what stage of the monitoring process. There are several issues to consider in making these choices. The most important consideration is the relevance of the topic to current school policies and concerns. Some schools may initiate a monitoring system because they are struggling with major issues, such as drugs or bullying, and they will monitor these issues and the factors that may contribute to the situation. Other schools may be involved in a new program and may want to assess the school’s progress in implementing the program and achieving the desired outcomes. The components chosen for the monitoring system should reflect these issues. It is useful to consider covering several major areas in a monitoring system. Questions need to address the multiple types of school violence and bullying behaviors, including verbal- emotional bullying (e.g., humiliating comments), indirect social aggression (e.g., excluding a student), physical bullying, cyberbullying, sexual harassment, and weapon- related behaviors (e.g., bringing a weapon to school, threatening with a weapon). In some settings, it may be important to identify whether students are being victimized by staff and vice versa. This central area includes multiple issues. They include topics such as how students perceive the respect, support, and care they receive from staff; how engaged and connected they feel in school; and whether they are satisfied with their school. Many of these questions are also relevant for staff and parents. Given the importance of social and emotional learning (SEL) and the current emphasis on including SEL in accountability systems, schools may want to consider adding this component to their monitoring. Monitoring SEL competencies may be especially relevant to schools that engage in SEL- promoting interventions.
