Abstract:
Purpose: The present study aimed to evaluate mental health and coping strategies among nursing staff in two public hospitals of Greece. Materials and methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 318 nurses working in two public hospitals in Attica, Greece from February 2017 to May 2017. Data were collected using the Patient Health Questionnaire-2 (PHQ-2), the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Questionnaire (GAD-2) and the Greek version of the Ways of Coping Questionnaire. The data were presented as mean and standard deviation and analyzed through student t–test, chi-square, and descript_ive statistics using SPSS Version 21.0. The significance level was accepted as P values <0.05. Results: Data analysis revealed that 44% of nurses were suffering from depression and 40.3% from anxiety, with the type of hospital (p≤ 0.001) and marital status (p = 0.031) affecting stress levels. Conclusions: Working in mental health hospital and married nurses were the main risk factors for manifestation of anxiety/depression symptoms among nursing staff. Individual nurse characteristics, such as working experience as well as working environment (general and mental health hospital) were found to be associated with the nurses’ coping strategies in their attempt to deal with their work.

Abstract:
Globally, graduate students have been found to have high prevalence of mental health problems. With increasing severity of mental health problems on university campuses and limited resources for mental health treatment, alternative interventions are needed. This study investigated the use of biofeedback training to help reduce symptoms of stress, anxiety, and depression. A sample of 60 graduate students in public health nursing was randomly assigned to either the biofeedback intervention or the control group. Results indicated that biofeedback intervention was effective in significantly reducing the levels of stress, anxiety, and depression over the 4-week period, while the control group had increases in symptoms of anxiety and depression over the same timeframe. As future leaders in the public health nursing arena, the more psychologically healthy the graduate students in public health nursing are, the better the public health nursing professionals they will be as they go forth to serve the community after graduation.

Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To describe the development of a data-driven policy platform for psychiatric nurses roles and outcomes to alleviate the current mental health crisis in the United States. METHOD: Drawing on census data, statistical reports, and analysis of the current psychiatric mental health nursing (PMHN) workforce, a data-driven policy platform is designed to recruit, train, and prepare psychiatric nurses for addressing the nation’s mental health crises. RESULTS: As noted by the Institute of Medicine’s 2010 & 2016 reports on the future of nursing, the largest available health care workforce is not being used effectively, particularly to address the nation’s mental health care needs. The development of a data-driven platform provides direction for psychiatric nurses in developing the workforce to meet the national mental health crisis. CONCLUSIONS: From education through practice and research, psychiatric-mental health nursing must build and share a data-driven, relationship-to-care platform emphasizing how PMHN care affects patient outcomes. Using a data-based platform to grow supportive public opinion, psychiatric mental health nursing can build a workforce to modify national accreditation standards and laws supporting data-driven PMHN care. The specialty profession must also seek to modify the nursing profession’s attitude toward embracing data-driven platform of care relationships to psychiatric mental health outcomes.

Abstract:
The purpose of this research was to explore the mental health and well-being of Muslim nursing students in Thailand. Specifically, the study investigated the factors that impact anxiety and depression among Muslim nursing students. This cross-sectional research was conducted with a half sampling method of Muslim undergraduate students who were studying at a public nursing college in Thailand. From the 220 self-identified Muslim nursing students, 110 were sampled for this study, representing 14% of the total nursing students at this college. Results indicated a moderate prevalence of anxiety and high prevalence of depression among Muslim nursing students. Stress () was positively associated with anxiety, while self-esteem () was negatively associated with anxiety; together this model accounted for 46% of the variance in anxiety. Self-esteem () and social support () were negatively associated with depression, while stress () was positively correlated with depression; together this model accounted for 57% of the variance in depression. Recommendations were given to help train Muslim nursing students to be competent nurses with good mental health and well-being who will succeed and contribute to the nursing profession.

Abstract:
Of the very large sum of money spent on mental health services, almost all comes from the public directly in the form of central or local government taxation. In 1990, approximately £2 billion was spent in the National Health Service directly on mental health services. That represents 10% of total health service expenditure. In addition, local authority social services departments spend around £50 million annually on residential and day care services for people with mental problems. A further £100 million is spent on supplementary benefit for board and lodgings payments and a considerable amount expended by prisons, courts and the police. These figures omit the growing amount of money spent on supporting elderly people with senile dementia outside mental illness hospitals, in residential and nursing homes. Almost two thirds of all residential care for elderly people provide care for those with mental disorder, adding a further staggering £5–600 million by 1990. The current direct care costs of disabling mental disorder to the public purse is approximately £3,000 million (£3 billion). For all the huge amount of money, resources appear inadequate, ill-directed and uncoordinated. Several actions need to be taken to improve the use of these vast resources.

Full text
Abstract:

Background: In low- and lower-middle-income countries (LLMICs), 16% of pregnant and 20% of postpartum women experience common maternal mental health disorders, far surpassing global rates of 10% and 13%, respectively. Maternal depression is associated with poor perinatal outcomes, including maternal, newborn, and early childhood outcomes. The Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) was recently validated in Rwanda, yet maternal depression prevalence and associated factors are unknown.

Objectives: The primary objectives of the study are to describe antenatal depression prevalence and its associated factors.

Methods: This is a secondary analysis of the Preterm Birth Initiative-Rwanda randomized controlled trial of group antenatal care (ANC) data obtained between June 2017 – June 2018. Thirty-four health centers in five districts were selected. At each health center, convenience sampling was used to ascertain EPDS scores from the first five women to present for initial ANC each calendar month. A cut-off EPDS score of ≥13 was used to define maternal depression. Multi-level simple and multiple logistic regressions were used to explore associated factors of antenatal depression. The study obtained informed consent and was approved by the Rwanda National Ethics Committee and the University of California, San Francisco institutional review board.

Results: Twenty-percent of women in the antenatal period screened positive for depression. In the adjusted multi-level multiple logistic regression model, family social support, age, ability to communicate with partner, and perceived stress were significantly associated with antenatal depression.

Conclusions: Antenatal and postpartum depression prevalence in Rwanda exceeds LLMIC averages. The authors recommend universal depression screening and treatment for pregnant and postpartum women.

Frey, Katherine Parris. "A Qualitative Analysis of the Implementation of a Complex Intervention| Evaluating Implementation of the Trauma Survivors Network." Thesis, University of Maryland, Baltimore, 2017. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10275517.

Full text
Abstract:

Background: Annually, two million adults are admitted to US hospitals due to traumatic injury. The trauma recovery process often brings physical and psychological challenges. The Trauma Survivors Network (TSN) is a multimodal program designed to improve outcomes for this population. However, despite early efforts at dissemination, widespread adoption of the program remains low. Understanding barriers and facilitators to adoption and implementation is a common challenge in intervention development and dissemination generally, representing a knowledge gap in planning for the implementation of complex, behavior change interventions more specifically.

Purpose: The purpose of this project was to qualitatively assess the implementation of the TSN at 6 trauma centers using a combination of prospective documentation and retrospective interviews. The implementation process at each of the participating centers was analyzed and compared to rate implementation strength. Specific barriers and facilitators to program implementation were identified.

Methods: In this qualitative multiple case study, data sources included implementation logs (6), diary entries (147), and semi-structured interviews with key informants (37). Each of the centers was considered an analytic case. Data analysis followed a primarily deductive approach, using a coding framework based on the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research and the Theoretical Domains Framework. Matrices of themes and cases were constructed, allowing the evaluation constructs at the case and study level.

Results: The result of this research is the development of a model of program implementation proposing the factors most likely to result in successful implementation of the TSN. Implementation requires leaders at local centers to recognize the need for the program, and working with a dedicated coordinator and engaged opinion leaders, provide the time, support, and resources necessary to demonstrate program continuity and value to staff. This process is facilitated by external, national level support for the program, including the potential incorporation of the TSN into guidelines for trauma center verification, as well as the design of internal processes intended to integrate the program into the center, ensuring acceptance and longevity for the program. The results of this study can assist future adopters of the TSN, improving the likelihood of successful program implementation.

Full text
Abstract:

Individuals diagnosed with dementia make up the majority of the population in skilled nursing facilities (SNFs). Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) are the primary caretakers of older adults living in SNFs. The purpose of this grant project was to write a proposal for funding to provide Person-Centered Care (PCC) training to help CNAs enhance their skills to better enhance the quality of life of older adults living with dementia in SNFs.

The goal of PCC training is to help CNAs better understand the signs and symptoms of Alzheimer’s and dementia, improve communication skills, and provide strategies to manage the behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia. Previous research on PCC has found it to be effective in improving the quality of care of older adults who are affected by dementia and who are living in nursing homes.

Actual submission or funding of the grant was not required for the successful completion of this project.

Abstract:
It is widely supported that there are significant, positive relationships between the occurrence of some mental health symptoms and physical illnesses. Research indicates that the burden experienced by those with a physical and mental illness are magnified compared to individuals who do not experience an illness. More specifically, one of the burdens experienced by individuals is the monetary burden of affording the necessary health services to properly manage their illness. This study attempts to reveal a difference between mental health symptom count for individuals who do and do not experience difficulty affording health care for their physical problems. The first hypothesis states that the indication of medical problems will be associated with greater mental health symptoms. The second hypothesis states that the relationship between medical concerns and mental health symptoms will be moderated by difficulty affording health services. Lastly, the third hypothesis states that the indication of unhealthy behaviors, such as smoking and irregular exercise, will be associated with greater mental health symptoms. All data used in this study is archived data that was gathered by the Institute for Rural Health’s Mobile Health Units during free community health fairs from September 2012 to February 2014. The first hypothesis was supported because the incidence rate of mental health symptom count was increased with the presence of some physical problems. These findings supported previous research that indicated that the presence of physical illness increases the chance of developing a mental illness. The study results revealed that the second hypothesis was not supported since difficulty affording health services did not have a significant effect on the relationship between indicated physical illnesses and mental health symptom count. Previous research reports that there is monetary burden for individuals who experience a physical or mental illness when accessing appropriate health services. This research aimed to explore if that burden would significantly affect the relationship of those illnesses. Lastly, the third hypothesis was supported because mental health symptom count incidence rate was found to increase for individuals partaking in negative health behaviors, such as smoking, and decrease for individuals partaking in positive health behaviors, such as exercising.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to investigate the Hardiness level of battered women residing at a South Florida shelter and to investigate if there was a major difference in the hardiness level of women who were first time in a shelter as opposed to those who had been previously in shelters. Using a descriptive design, the Health-Related Hardiness Scale was given to 50 battered women residing at a shelter. The results confirmed our hypothesis that proposed that hardier women would leave their abusive environment. The total hardiness of these women was (M= 148.86 SD= 22.64). Furthermore, no major differences were found among the two groups, the total hardiness for the women who been in shelters before was (M=150.17 SD= 26.06) and for those who were first time users was (M=148.45 SD= 21.81). The results provide a baseline to begin to understand the role that hardiness play in the lives of battered women. These findings and future studies may have implications for breaking the cycle of domestic violence.

Abstract:

Behavioral complications, such as Inappropriate Sexual Behavior (ISB), are developed in many cases of dementia. Sex, even for those with dementia, is a primary need, but supporting this need in an appropriate manner may overwhelm caregivers. The purpose of this project was to create a curriculum for Dementia Friendly Community (DFC) residential caregivers on the topic of sexual expression among older adults with dementia. By offering training on sexuality and dementia it is expected that caregivers can increase the DFC's provision of quality of life. This project presented an assessment tool and plan on how to manage ISB, activities relevant to the discussed topics, and curriculum evaluation forms. Expert reviewers offered recommendations to further improve the curriculum's quality.

Abstract:
A preocupação com a necessidade manifesta de inclusão no processo de produção da vida material por intermédio do trabalho, de uma parcela da população usuária de serviço de saúde mental, deu origem a este estudo. O cenário é o Centro de Atençao Psicossocial Prof. Luiz da Rocha Cerqueira (CAPS), estrutura de atenção à saúde mental substitutiva ao modelo hospitalocêntrico, que opera um projeto terapêutico construído de forma coletiva, a partir das necessidades dos usuários (indivíduos e famílias). Para a apreensão do significado do trabalho e do exercício de trabalhar utilizou-se o referencial do materialismo histórico e dialético, fundamentado no conceito de reabilitação psicossocial e se fez por intermédio da análise dos discursos dos usuários. Pretendeu-se compreender o significado da atividade produtiva do usuário-trabalhador vinculado a um dos Projetos Especiais desenvolvidos no CAPS - a copiadora - como instrumento de intervenção no seu poder de contratualidade social, aqui entendido como uma ampliação da sua capacidade de autonomia e emancipação. A finalidade é ser mais uma peça na construção do arsenal desse modelo de assistência à saúde mental, particularmente no que concerne à reconstrução da prática de enfermagem numa perspectiva transformadora em ralação à forma tradicional de mantenedora da ordem institucional. Os resultados indicam que os usuários possuem representações contraditórias acerca de algumas categorias empíricas, porém, de um modo geral, evidenciam a compreensão do trabalho como um instrumento que lhes possibilita acessar o campo dos direitos sociais. Essa outra condição dos sujeitos pode ser observada pelas mudanças internas e externas que experimentam, além de indicar um movimento de superação da condição anterior de usuário-trabalhador (doente que trabalha) para a de trabalhador-usuário (sujeito doente que pode trabalhar).
This study was born out of the preoccupation with the necessity manifested by a portion of the population which uses the mental health service linked to the process of production of material life through work. The site was the Prof. Luiz da Rocha Cerqueira Center for Psycho-Social Care (CAPS), which operates a therapeutic project assembled in a collective format, based on the needs of the users (individuals and families), structured to offer mental health care in lieu fo a hospital centered setting. Th intention was to understand the significance and practice of work using historic and dialetic materialism as a reference, based upon the concepts of psycosocial reabilitation and was performed throug the analysis of users' discourses. The goal was to aspire to understand the significance of user-worker production activity linked to one of the Special Projects developed by CAPS - The Photocopier - as an intervention instrument within the framwork of the social contract, thath is understood as an amplification of one capacity for autonomy and emancipation. The final objective is being an additional piece in the construction of an arsenal of mental health assistence's models, particulary when it concerns the reconstruction of the practice of nursing as a transforming perspective in relation to the tradition form of maintaining institutional order. The results indicate that users have contradictory representations in regard to somo empirical categories, nevertheless, in general manner, there's evidence of comprehension of work as an instrument that enables them access to social rights. This can be observed by internal and external changes experimented and besides by a movement of overcoming the previous condition of user/worker (patient who works) to worker/user (patient able to work).

Full text
Abstract:
In this chapter we will consider the care of a person living in the community with complex needs. In the past, the majority of people who suffered from severe and enduring mental health problems would almost certainly have spent their lives living in institutionalized care. Today, the majority of people with such problems live in the community, and the issue of how well (or not) they are supported is a critical one for those working as part of a community mental health team. In this chapter we introduce ‘Anthony’, a service user who has a long history of mental health problems. Anthony lives alone, and apart from his brother David, he has little contact with other people. Anthony has been referred to mental health services following a long period in which he has been having a depot injection from the nurse at his GP’s surgery. He has a complex range of problems including harassment from local youths, possible physical ill health, and housing problems, as well as a deterioration in his mental health state. In the UK, the move from hospital-based care towards a more community-oriented model is a relatively recent one. Many of the care practices and attitudes you may encounter today have their roots in an institutionalized model. From the 1840s onwards a system of ‘lunatic asylums’ was developed, the intention being that these should provide a humane and morally disciplined environment for those identified as needing care for mental health problems. They were oft en linked to county asylums and workhouses and became associated in the public view with both poverty and ‘madness’. For ordinary people at this time of great industrial and social change, working conditions were harsh and the asylum policy was intended to provide a degree of social control (Rogers and Pilgrim 2001). A popular ditty of the time illustrates some of the prevailing attitudes:… Outside the lunatic asylum, I was there and I was breaking stones, When up popped a lunatic and said to me ‘Good morning Mr Jones, How much a week do you get for doing that?’ ‘Sixteen shillings’ I cried, ‘That’s not enough to keep a wife and six kids, Step inside you silly fella, step inside’.

The Australian Catholic University (ACU National at www.acu.edu.au) is a public university funded by the Australian Government. There are six campuses across the country, located in Brisbane, Queensland; North Sydney, New South Wales; Strathfield, New South Wales; Canberra, Australian Capital Territory (ACT); Ballarat, Victoria; and Melbourne, Victoria. The university serves a total of approximately 27,000 students, including both full- and part-time students, and those enrolled in undergraduate and postgraduate studies. Through fostering and advancing knowledge in education, health, commerce, the humanities, science and technology, and the creative arts, ACU National seeks to make specific and targeted contributions to its local, national, and international communities. The university explicitly engages the social, ethical, and religious dimensions of the questions it faces in teaching, research, and service. In its endeavors, it is guided by a fundamental concern for social justice, equity, and inclusivity. The university is open to all, irrespective of religious belief or background. ACU National opened its doors in 1991 following the amalgamation of four Catholic tertiary institutions in eastern Australia. The institutions that merged to form the university had their origins in the mid-17th century when religious orders and institutes became involved in the preparation of teachers for Catholic schools and, later, nurses for Catholic hospitals. As a result of a series of amalgamations, relocations, transfers of responsibilities, and diocesan initiatives, more than twenty historical entities have contributed to the creation of ACU National. Today, ACU National operates within a rapidly changing educational and industrial context. Student numbers are increasing, areas of teaching and learning have changed and expanded, e-learning plays an important role, and there is greater emphasis on research. In its 2005–2009 Strategic Plan, the university commits to the adoption of quality teaching, an internationalized curriculum, as well as the cultivation of generic skills in students, to meet the challenges of the dynamic university and information environment (ACU National, 2008). The Graduate Diploma of Education (Secondary) Program at ACU Canberra Situated in Australia’s capital city, the Canberra campus is one of the smallest campuses of ACU National, where there are approximately 800 undergraduate and 200 postgraduate students studying to be primary or secondary school teachers through the School of Education (ACT). Other programs offered at this campus include nursing, theology, social work, arts, and religious education. A new model of pre-service secondary teacher education commenced with the introduction of the Graduate Diploma of Education (Secondary) program at this campus in 2005. It marked an innovative collaboration between the university and a cohort of experienced secondary school teachers in the ACT and its surrounding region. This partnership was forged to allow student teachers undertaking the program to be inducted into the teaching profession with the cooperation of leading practitioners from schools in and around the ACT. In the preparation of novices for the teaching profession, an enduring challenge is to create learning experiences capable of transforming practice, and to instill in the novices an array of professional skills, attributes, and competencies (Putnam & Borko, 2000). Another dimension of the beginning teacher experience is the need to bridge theory and practice, and to apply pedagogical content knowledge in real-life classroom practice. During the one-year Graduate Diploma program, the student teachers undertake two four-week block practicum placements, during which they have the opportunity to observe exemplary lessons, as well as to commence teaching. The goals of the practicum include improving participants’ access to innovative pedagogy and educational theory, helping them situate their own prior knowledge regarding pedagogy, and assisting them in reflecting on and evaluating their own practice. Each student teacher is paired with a more experienced teacher based at the school where he/she is placed, who serves as a supervisor and mentor. In 2007, a new dimension to the teaching practicum was added to facilitate online peer mentoring among the pre-service teachers at the Canberra campus of ACU National, and provide them with opportunities to reflect on teaching prior to entering full-time employment at a school. The creation of an online community to facilitate this mentorship and professional development process forms the context for the present case study. While on their practicum, students used social software in the form of collaborative web logging (blogging) and threaded voice discussion tools that were integrated into the university’s course management system (CMS), to share and reflect on their experiences, identify critical incidents, and invite comment on their responses and reactions from peers.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Background: Geriatric depression is a mental and emotional disorder affecting older adults. Social support is an important factor known to moderate the deleterious effects of stress in elderly. This study aimed to determine factors affecting depression symptom in the elderly using PRECEDE PROCEED model. Subjects and Method: A cross sectional study was conducted in Surakarta, Central Java. A sample of 200 elderly was selected for this study by cluster random sampling. The dependent variable was depression. The independent variables were gender, marital status, residence, education, family support, and peer support. The data were collected by questionnaire and analyzed by a multiple linear regression run on Stata 13. Results: The risk of depression in elderly increased with female (b= 5.53; 95% CI= 3.38 to 7.70; p<0.001), unmarried (b= 4.15; 95% CI=1.36 to 6.95; p= 0.004), and living at nursing home (b= 8.16; 95% CI= 5.26 to 11.06; p<0.001). The risk of depression decreased with high education (b= -5.51; 95% CI= -7.49 to -3.51; p<0.001), strong peer support (b= -2.75; 95% CI= -4.92 to -0.58; p= 0.013), and strong family support (b= -5.02; 95% CI= -7.96 to -2.09; p<0.001). Conclusion: The risk of depression in elderly increases with female, unmarried, and living at nursing home. The risk of depression decreases with high education, strong peer support, and strong family support. Keywords: depression, elderly Correspondence: Zela Tunurrohmin.
