Abstract:

Urban Bioethics<br>M.A.<br>Emergency rooms often are used for extremely ill patients, but they also are used and overused for non-urgent acute-care needs, especially in the urban setting where patients might not have access to primary care services. While U.S. legislation has aimed to reduce emergency-room usage for non-emergency needs, the emergency room continues to be an essential support in low-income and urban neighborhoods. Specifically, North Philadelphia residents rely on and use the emergency room for reliable care. The central premise of this thesis is that we should shift from worki

Abstract:

<p> The purpose of this action research study was to examine the effects of the stigma of mental illness towards individuals with mental illness on services provided by medical professionals, specifically, registered nurses who work in an emergency department (ED). There have been numerous studies on how attitudes towards mental illness can be present in health care professionals; however, none that focused specifically on the attitudes of ED nurses. Nurses working in the ED are often the first health care professional a patient with mental illness sees and their attitude can influence the res

Abstract:

<p> Abstract Emergency medical services (EMS) for nonemergent or low-acuity calls is a new normal. EMS agencies spend a majority of time providing primary care services through the 911 system. They are utilized currently to fill the primary care gap subconsciously. The EMS system is activated as a patient navigator for primary care services. EMS agencies in the state where the research occurred have responded to the gap in care management by creating innovative programs such as community health emergency medical services (CHEMS). Creation of CHEMS programs have become one of the most monumenta

Abstract:

In the United States, there is an issue with low-income uninsured patients using emergency services for nonurgent conditions instead of using primary care services. Primary care services are more beneficial than emergency services for such patients, in that they can receive continual or follow-up care through primary care and thus achieve better health outcomes over the long term. Though information is available concerning factors in (or the rationale for) low-income uninsured patients choosing the emergency department (ED) instead of primary services for nonurgent conditions, research focusin
