Abstract:

Introduction:Events such as the Sydney Quakers Hill Nursing Home fire highlighted the great need for robust evacuation plans for Residential Aged Care Facilities (RACFs). However, plans alone are not sufficient and routine exercises are necessary to test the capability of a facility’s emergency plan. Current methods of exercising facility evacuations, such as live drills, are limited and only test isolated elements of the evacuation process, which fall drastically short of being able to simulate the real-time resources and procedures required to perform a large scale evacuation of a RACF.Aim:T

We used nationwide healthcare claims data collected by the National Health Insurance System database of South Korea.

The article analyzes attempts to "normalize” disabilities, particularly intellectual disabilities, in contemporary Russia. The NGOs that emerged in the 1990s put a lot of work into reforming the long-term state residential care system and changing the principles of care for people with disabilities. They offered so-called assisted living as an alternative - specially created conditions in which people who have no experience of living outside the state institutions can become familiar with a "normal” life.

Objective This study investigated the link between socioeconomic status and unplanned dental presentations at the Perth Children’s Hospital (PCH), as well as the link between the socioeconomic status of unplanned dental patients and any previous admissions to the PCH. Methods Records of 351 unplanned visits to the PCH were collected, including reason for attendance (infection, trauma, other), the patient’s residential location (suburb) and the history of any previous presentations at the PCH. The socioeconomic status of each patient was based on the Index of Relative Socio-Economic Disadvantag

Abstract Recent studies show that short-term exposure to ambient particulate matter is associated with more emergency department visits and hospitalizations for pneumonia as well as increased mortality and increased health care costs among older adults. Moreover, exposure to ambient particulate matter is shown to be connected with an increased rate of daily mortality and hospitalizations due to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). The association between short-term exposures to particulate matter with a diameter less than 2.5 µm (PM2.5) and ozone [at levels below the current daily National Ambient

Abstract:

Abstract The issue of institutional abuse (IA) in out-of-home care services is a difficult one, which we struggle to think about and which is slow to find attention and recognition: the victims are those children who, after experiencing maltreatment and abuse in the family, still suffer violence in the residential care services that should protect them. It represents the failure of the public system in protecting children, and it is often the result of institutions and professionals who allow, collude, cover, justify and minimise violence against children.

In addition, twelve pilot interviews with social workers were conducted.

Background Care institutions are recognised to be a high-risk setting for the emergence and spread of infections and antimicrobial-resistant organisms, which stresses the importance of infection prevention and control (IPC). Accurate implementation is crucial for optimal IPC practice. Despite the wide promotion of IPC and research thereof in the hospital and nursing home setting, similar efforts are lacking in disability care settings. Therefore, this study aimed to assess perceived barriers and facilitators to IPC among professionals working at residential care facilities (RCFs) for people wi

IntroductionDecisions to adopt health technologies rely, in part, on judgements about cost effectiveness. Cost effectiveness is commonly assessed against a willingness-to-pay threshold for health gains. Building an evidence base on the marginal productivity of health spending to inform the value of the threshold is increasingly of interest for resource allocation decision-making and technology implementation. We report on an in-progress analysis to inform a threshold for policy purposes in British Columbia, Canada.MethodsWe developed a ten-year panel-data model with instrumental variables, whi

Background: Acute vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) in sickle cell disease (SCD) frequently leads patients to seek emergency department (ED) care. Whether or not health inequities exist, and their exact nature, is poorly understood in ED visits for SCD VOC within a universal publicly funded healthcare system. In this study, we aimed to address this knowledge gap by characterizing the landscape of ED care burden and quality indicators for SCD VOC management in the province of Ontario, Canada.

For example, all residential aged care facilities applying for new federal government funded aged care places are required to demonstrate a plan for environmental disaster threats such as bushfires and floods. Another example is the adoption of new fire danger rating scale, with the inclusion of an extreme level called “catastrophic”-code red.

Maintaining favorable microclimatic conditions in a residential dwelling is directly related to the stable operation of the heating system. An emergency shutdown of the heating system, especially in the winter season, can lead to serious negative consequences: disruption of thermal comfort for people in the residential building, rupture of pipelines and heating devices, flooding of adjacent premises, etc. Thus, the issue of predicting the thermal regime of a residential dwelling after the termination of heat supply is of practical relevance.
