Abstract:

Patients receiving dialysis treatment experience immense changes in their health and well-being, therefore receiving adequate social support services is an integral aspect of their care plan. Thus, the purpose of this study was to gain an understanding about social support services offered by social workers to patients receiving dialysis care. Furthermore, this study sought to develop awareness about additional services need to assist social workers in providing social, emotional, and physical support to patients.

This study explores the phenomenon of the informal medical consultation, a communication event in which an individual asks for medical information, advice, or care from an off-duty health professional with whom the individual has no formal patient-provider relationship. Using surveys and interviews, the study describes these consultations from the perspective of the health care professional and the informal patient. The study explores foundational theories that offer explanations for the phenomenon. The theories considered include social support, decision-making, social exchange, perceived par

Abstract:

The purpose of this quantitative cross-sectional study was to examine the association between African Americans' (AA) self-reported sleep quality and health problems in a community sample of adult AAs. This study was grounded in McEwen's theory that brief and long-term sleep deprivation triggers a stress response that increases allostatic load, which leads to ill health and poor sleep quality. The sample of volunteer participants for this study (N =121) was drawn from a community base of AA adults, aged 20 -70, who resided in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia and attended 1 of 3 local churches.

Over 43.5 million Americans provide informal care to a fast-growing elderly population in the United States. Informal care allows care-recipients to remain functional members of society. However, research suggests that the demands of informal care can negatively impact the health of caregivers. For example, caregiver burden increases the risk for poor health in caregivers compared to non-caregivers. Caregiving research is on the rise, but the dynamics of informal care in active retirement communities remains widely unexplored. To provide adequate services to lessen caregiver burden and improve
