Abstract:
Despite having a higher burden of health problems, transgender persons face challenges in accessing healthcare in India. Most studies on healthcare access of transgender persons in India focus only on HIV related care, mental healthcare, gender affirmative services or on the ethno-cultural communities or transgender women. This study fills this gap by focusing on diverse gender identities within the transgender community with a specific focus on experiences in accessing general or routine healthcare services. A qualitative descriptive approach was used in this study. 23 in-depth interviews and

AbstractInvoluntary admission or detention of persons is a controversial though widespread practice in modern mental health services. Accordingly, for decades now, there have been calls and initiatives to try to reduce the practice. Human rights-based mental health care has gained considerable momentum in recent decades and integral to that approach is the push for reduction or abolition of coercive practices within psychiatry. A key juncture in this movement has been the formulation of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities in 2006, in particular, articles 12 and 14, whi

Abstract:
In what way and how can models for personalised support such as personal budgeting strengthen the implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities? Personal budgeting refers to a sum of money that is granted to the individual on the basis of an assessment of the need for service and calculation of a budget for this purpose. The individual can buy the service he needs for his budget. Personal budgeting is in use in social and health care in several countries. In the Nordic region, personal assistance is the main example of such solutions, but other models have also

Abstract:
Home and community-based services are support services provided to persons with disabilities that enable them to live in the community. The growing demand for home and community-based services has led to an increase in efforts to measure the quality, including the effectiveness, of these services and supports in helping people to achieve their desired health and quality-of-life outcomes. Quality measures that focus on outcomes may need to be risk adjusted. This is because each provider serves a unique mix of persons with varying characteristics, and a provider’s case-mix can confound their out

Objectives. Recently bereaved individuals face higher risks of adverse health outcomes, including increased risk of morbidity and mortality, increased risk of suicide, and lower functional status and quality of life. This systematic review assessed the available evidence on screening, diagnosing, and treating children and adults at risk for or diagnosed with grief disorders related to bereavement. Findings from this review informed a 2-day independent subject matter advisory panel convened on June 10, 2024, by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) that assessed

Abstract:
Summary: Notwithstanding the gaps noted above or the heterogeneity in the studies, the patient population or periodontitis severity, there is consistent evidence showing a reduction in inflammation post-periodontal treatment in patients with CKD. The evidence for mortality and cardiovascular outcomes also offers evidence (although weak) that these outcomes may be favorable to patients with CKD in the medium term. The Centers for Disease Control recommends oral health maintenance for patients with diabetes. CKD is common in people with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Approximately 1 in 2 adults wit

Abstract:
Rapid population aging will drive a strong increase in the demand for long-term care services in Latin America and the Caribbean. To inform policy making, in this study we present novel estimates of the number of care dependent older persons in 26 countries of the region. For ten of these countries, estimates are based on existing survey data. For the remaining 16 countries, we use a statistical model to predict the prevalence of care dependence based on the relationship between this condition and age, sex and health status. We also forecast the number of care dependent older persons in the ye

Abstract:
Literature shows that IDPs struggle to access services, which has an impact on their ability to live healthy and fulfilling lives. In the field of health, IDPs frequently have worse outcomes than both host community and refugees. This rapid literature review finds evidence of a number of policy and administrative barriers to access of services for internally displaced persons (IDPs). IDPs remain citizens of the countries in which they are displaced, and the national authorities retain responsibility for meeting their basic rights. However, their displacement, loss of livelihoods and assets, la

Abstract:
A new statutory scheme for the provision of home support services is currently being developed by the Department of Health. Research has shown that access to home support services varies across the country. The new scheme aims to tackle this issue to ensure equitable access to home support services nationwide and is part of wider reform of Ireland’s health and social care systems as envisaged in the Sláintecare report and Department of Health action plans. Publicly funded home support services in Ireland are currently provided free of charge for recipients, unlike long-term residential or nurs

Abstract:
The work is devoted to a comprehensive study of medical support, incl. sanatorium-resort treatment of employees of the military prosecutor’s office and members of their families (persons who are dependent on them). It is noted that health care is structurally included in services that, in addition to cash payments and benefits in kind, represent the entire social security system. The main attention in the article is focused on the analysis of the normative legal regulation of the health protection of employees of the military prosecutor’s office, as well as the provision of medical assistance

Abstract:
The indigenous peoples and African descendants in Latin America and the Caribbean are far behind the rest of the population in terms of access to education, health services, and financial services, something that is reflected in poor labor outcomes and high poverty rates. Indigenous peoples and African descendants achieve lower levels of education in their lifetime. In recent decades, the region has narrowed the years-of-education gap between the indigenous peoples and the non-indigenous population, but the differences are still large. The gaps in access to health services are clear in the mat
