Abstract:

This article presents the results of a needs assessment of family physicians and residents concerning the provision of mental health care and an implementation evaluation of a multidisciplinary mental health service demonstration project, linking 2 family practices with mental health services of a general hospital. Family physicians and residents reported that collaborative mental health care provision would enhance but not replace their management of patients with mental health problems. The implementation evaluation found that collaborative care provided by a multidisciplinary mental health

Abstract:

All health services rely on efficient and accurate communication between health professionals to ensure safe and effective patient care. Our health service introduced a standardised technique, ISBAR (Identify, Situation, Background, Assessment, Request), for telephone communication. We describe and evaluate the implementation of this project; evaluation was undertaken using program logic mapping. Recommendations for other health services planning to introduce communication tools into routine clinical use are also provided.

Abstract Background In Australia, health services are seeking innovative ways to utilize data stored in health information systems to report on, and improve, health care quality and health system performance for Aboriginal Australians. However, there is little research about the use of health information systems in the context of Aboriginal health promotion. In 2008, the Northern Territory’s publicly funded healthcare system introduced the quality improvement program planning system (QIPPS) as the centralized online system for recording information about health promotion programs.

The present report from the Rhode Island Methods to Improve Diagnostic Assessment and Services (MIDAS) Project compares patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD) in an outpatient practice (n = 390) and a partial hospital setting (n = 358) on diagnostic comorbidities, symptoms experienced, suicidality, and occupational impairment. The patients in the partial program were diagnosed with significantly more psychiatric disorders and were more frequently diagnosed with dysthymia, generalized anxiety disorder, alcohol and substance use disorders, adjustment disorders, and posttraumatic str

Abstract:

Abstract Background Nearly half of all mental health disorders develop prior to the age of 15. Early assessments, diagnosis, and treatment are critical to shortening single episodes of care, reducing possible comorbidity and long-term disability. In Norway, approximately 20% of all children and adolescents are experiencing mental health problems. To address this, health officials in Norway have called for the integration of innovative approaches. A clinical decision support system (CDSS) is an innovative, computer-based program that provides health professionals with clinical decision support

Republic Act 11223, known as the Universal Health Care (UHC) Act, has a triple goal of providing quality healthcare services that are equitable, accessible and cost-effective for all Filipinos. At long last, no longer would health care reform have to be re-invented as new DOH Administrative Orders or Executive Orders, which changes not only with every new Presidency, but in fact with every new Secretary of Health (recall the “Integrated Public Health System of 1983”, “Health Sector Reform Agenda of 1999”, the “FOURmula ONE for Health of 2005”, the “FOURmula ONE Plus for Health of 2019” program

Abstract:

Discussions of the economic theory of planned obsolescence—the purposeful embedding of redundancy into the functionality or other aspect of a product—in the 1980s and 1990s often focused on the impact of such a design strategy on manufacturers, consumers, the market, and, ultimately, profits (see, for example, Bulow; Lee and Lee; Waldman). More recently, assessments of such shortened product life cycles have included calculations of the environmental and other costs of such waste (Claudio; Kondoh; Unruh). Commonly utilised examples are consumer products such as cars, whitegoods and small appli
