Abstract:

After World War II, France’s rural Catholic youth associations (Jeunesse agricole catholique [JAC] and its sister organization, Jeunesse agricole catholique féminine [JACF]) organized a traveling home expo for agrarian families. The Rural Home Expo promoted a vision of rural modernization that drew on gendered models of postwar consumerism, economic development, and Catholic teaching on the family. The new rural home envisioned by JAC helped popularize and advance policies to industrialize French agriculture. By the mid-1950s, female activists resisted the gendered division of labor on which this vision was based. In 1957, JACF shifted its mission to promote women’s participation in the agricultural profession.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTContact with family and friends, in the form of visiting, is very important to the quality of the lives of rural nursing home residents. However, there has been little recent research that examines the frequency and determinants of visits to rural nursing homes and none in the rural Australian context. This study aimed to address this gap in the literature. A telephone survey with a close family member (N=257) of each participating resident in the rural New England area of New South Wales, Australia gathered data about 3,738 people who formed the potential social networks of these residents. This study found that the wider, potential, social networks of rural nursing home residents comprised approximately 17 people and involved a wide range of family and friends. However, their actual social networks consisted of approximately two females, daughters and friends, who had high-quality relationships with the resident and who visited at least once per month. In contrast to previous assertions that nursing home residents have robust support from their family and friends, the actual social networks of these residents have dwindled considerably over recent years, which may place them at risk of social isolation. This study has implications for nursing home policy and practice and recommendations for addressing the risk of social isolation that rural nursing home residents face are made.

Abstract:

Much has been written in recent years about 19th-century rural cemeteries. Beginning with the establishment of Boston's Mount Auburn Cemetery in 1831, these rural retreats rapidly replaced existing church burial grounds and by the 1850s had led to the development of urban parks and garden suburbs as well. Like urban parks and garden suburbs, rural cemeteries were meant to provide relief from the crowding, grid-iron regularity, and grittiness of the country's rapidly expanding industrial centers by embracing the openness, spontaneity, and verdant freshness of nature. Trees, shrubs, and flowering plants punctuated and enhanced the gentle contours of the land; lakes and roadways reflected and extended nature's beauties; manmade structures, too, nestled into the undulating rhythms of the land, exhibiting a oneness with the varied and carefully orchestrated richness of the natural setting. The garden suburb and the rural cemetery shared a further distinction of being located on the periphery of existing cities and were frequently entered through imposing gates that effectively announced their separateness from the surrounding terrain. Even more fundamental, however, but not fully understood, is the fact that at the core of the creation of both the rural cemetery and the garden suburb was a desire to emphasize and consolidate the American family by providing it with a new physical setting and a new set of symbols. By the Civil War, virtually every large American city had a rural cemetery, where its dead were buried in ample family lots that were adorned with imposing family monuments, and set off from other family lots by elaborate iron fences or stone copings similar to those that edged the family home.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTThe aim of this qualitative study was to explore rural family carers' experiences of the nursing home placement of an older relative. The study was undertaken in a large Health and Social Care Trust in Northern Ireland using a grounded theory approach. Purposive sampling was used to initiate data collection and thereafter theoretical sampling was employed. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 29 relatives of nursing home residents and the resultant data were recorded, transcribed and analysed using constant comparisons. The software package, QSR NVivo, was used to facilitate data management and retrieval. Older people had deep attachments to their homes and entry to care was a last resort. Rural family carers had close relationships with health- and social-care practitioners and felt supported in the decision-making process. The choice of home was a foregone conclusion for carers who had a strong sense of familiarity with the nursing homes in their area. This familiarity was influenced by the relatively rural communities in which respondents resided and by an efficient ‘grapevine’, which seemed to thrive in these small communities. This familiarity, in turn, influenced the choice of nursing home, timing of the placement and responses of family carers. The findings indicate that issues such as rurality and familiarity warrant a more detailed exploration in future research on entry to care.

Abstract:

AbstractDrawing on a survey of 406 British home owners in France, this study examines the origins, destinations and reasons for purchasing homes in rural France. In doing so it compares first home retired households with their pre-retirement counterparts and with second home owners who are retired. No notable differences are found in the geographical distribution or reasons for selecting home locations between these groups. However, patterns of retirement migration to France do appear to differ from intra-national long-distance migration within Britain and North America. Pointers to these differences are given and suggestions for future research are made. In addition, despite family visits and the friendship that people find in their recipient French communities, it is suggested that potential problems could arise for residents in relatively isolated rural communes. More research is needed to assess whether the positive attractions that are drawing retirement migrants from Britain to France will outweigh the negative consequences of their new home location.

Abstract:

Background. Family homes are a key setting for developing lifelong eating and physical activity habits, yet little is known about how family home nutrition and physical activity (FNPA) environments influence food insecurity (FI) and childhood obesity, particularly in rural settings. Aims. This study examined associations among FNPA, FI, and body mass index (BMI) in rural children. Method. Parents of 186 elementary school–age children completed FNPA and FI surveys. Child anthropometrics were directly measured. Logistic and linear regressions were used to examine associations. Results. Approximately 37% of children were overweight/obese; 43% of families were at risk for FI. Children whose families limited watching TV while eating were less likely to be obese (odds ratio [OR] = 0.56, p = .03) as were children whose families monitored intake of chips, cookies, and candy (OR = 0.54, p = .01). FI was higher in obese than normal weight children (OR = 11.00, p = .003) but only among families not eligible to receive free/reduced-cost school meals. Among eligible families, lower odds of FI were found for those who ate meals together often (OR = 0.31, p = .04) and for those with children frequently enrolled in organized sports/activities (OR = 0.65, p = .04). Findings were not significant after adjusting for multiple comparisons. Discussion. Results suggest that favorable FNPA factors were associated with healthier BMI and lower odds of FI. Conclusion. Opportunities for healthy eating at home may support rural children’s weight health. Additional resources may be necessary to promote food security among low-income families. Future research is warranted to better understand FNPA in relationship to the disproportionate rates of obesity and FI in rural populations.

Abstract:

Medical education is evolving from a heavily hierarchical and paternalistic approach to a more developmental and student-centred paradigm. In addition, there has been a greater focus on decentralised medical education, taking medical students closer to the lowest tiers of the healthcare system and allowing for a more immersive experience within the communities of their patients. This paper presents the experience of an enlightening rural experience, in which the benefits of such a model to medical education are explored. Furthermore, it presents the highly personal and developmental journey that decentralised and, in particular, rural medical training can offer. A new concept of a ‘home-stay’ model has now been introduced as part of the rural medicine experience, where students are hosted by a family within the community in which they work. This is a transformative project in which the most fundamental principles of medical training and the art of medical practice can be honed. The convergence of clinical training, public health enlightenment, and family practice are highlighted.

Abstract:

Operating within the framework of Erikson's developmental theory, this research examined the amount of time rural children spent in household activities and several demographic factors related to that use of time. Data were obtained from a 1977–79 multistate survey of family use of time in which home interviews were conducted with 1,050 families from rural areas of 10 states. There were 1,045 children aged 6 through 17 yr. Findings indicated that children averaged 65 min. per day in household tasks. Children spent the most time in shopping and maintenance of home, yard, car, and pets. Age and sex of the child, education and employment of the mother, state of residence, and season of the year significantly affected the time spent on the tasks. Education of the father and income of the family were not significant sources of variation in the time spent.

Abstract:

Abstract The purpose of this study was to examine qualitatively attachment to home and community in older rural African Americans in the Deep South. Sixty adults aged 52-79 (mean age 64.7, 24 males and 36 females) were interviewed using semi-structured interviews. Participants lived in two micropolitan counties in Mississippi, with most living in one of two mostly African American communities with fewer than 1000 residents. Interviewees were asked about their attachment to their house, the land the house is on, and the community in which they live. Interviews were recorded and transcribed, and transcriptions were analyzed for themes by two qualitative researchers using phenomenological analysis. The two researchers uncovered similar themes; discrepancies were discussed and integrated, and checked for consistency with the original text. The most prominent themes for attachment to home were sense of ownership/having built or made home their own, legacy/generational/historical attachment, sense of peace and safety, solitude and privacy, and attachment to specific features. Interviewees felt that their homes were a part of who they are and a part of their personal and family history; they also reported that their homes were safe and comfortable havens. When participants were asked about their attachment to their community, four themes emerged: socialization/friendly visiting, family and close ties, religious/spiritual, and solitude/quiet community. These results will be discussed in the context of Wahl’s 2012 model, which asserts that older adults’ attachment to place is a function of agency and belonging; belonging was a more prominent theme in this group.

Abstract:

Background. Dying at home represents a special challenge in rural areas. This representative study describes the palliative care for patients in a rural German region. Methods. In a cross-sectional, representative study all physicians of a large rural area were surveyed in terms of their palliative care for a biennial period. In prestructured interviews and chart reviews physicians, practices, and palliative care patients’ characteristics were obtained. The data were matched with regional mortality data. Results. According to public data 463 inhabitants died during the biennial period: 248 patients (53.6%) died outside the region’s borders including all in-hospital patients, while 215 died within this territory (46.4%). Of the latter, a total of 91 patients (42.3%) received care by the 14 physicians surveyed (on average: 6.6 patients per physician). 89% of families were actively involved in care, especially in multigenerational family scenarios. If family members were not involved, nursing services were active instead. Significant predictors for dying at home were the wish to die at home, a cancer diagnosis, and having family support. Conclusions. This study shows a physician-based, individually tailored, rural palliative care approach which allowed the majority of patients to die at home. Families were documented as an important social resource.

Abstract:

Objectives: This study explored US rural parents’ perceived facilitators, challenges and motivators to healthy eating. Methods: Qualitative and purposive sampling was used to recruit one hundred ( N = 100) parents of children enrolled in the fourth grade to participate in a series of focus group sessions. Eligibility criteria included being the head of the household and having a child enrolled in the fourth grade. Parents were questioned about factors impacting everyday lifestyle practices such as nutrition knowledge and eating habits. Data were analysed using grounded theory and constant comparative method. Results: Twelve focus groups sessions were conducted with parents who self-identified as African American (63%), Hispanic (25%) and Caucasian 2%. The majority (52%) of participants indicated they only had some high school education. Healthy eating among parents was highly dependent on socioeconomic status, time, availability and access to foods. Facilitators to healthy eating were school lunch programmes, nutrition education and family preferences. Findings demonstrate that parents tried to eat meals at home, but many factors (fear of genetically modified foods, money and time) prevented healthy eating and food preparation. Parents who consumed or prepared meals at home did so because of family influence and the fear of being unhealthy. Conclusion and implications: This study provides an in-depth understanding of rural parents’ efforts to promote healthy eating at home regardless of socioeconomic challenges.

Abstract:

Background: Advance care planning (ACP) often culminates in the completion of advance care directives (ACD), which is a written record of informed decisions specifying the type and extent of desired medical treatment. Documentation of ACD in nursing homes in the United States indicates a 60% to 70% completion rate. There are little data on the time at which ACD are completed in relation to when the resident was admitted to the nursing home facility. Objective: To explore the success of advanced care planning at a large, rural long-term care (LTC) facility. Methods: A descriptive approach, using a retrospective chart review, of 167 residents was used to examine resident completion of health-care system documents, legal documents, predisposing factors (resident demographics and psychosocial characteristics), and the actual process of ACP as defined by the rural LTC facility. Results: This nursing home utilizes a document entitled resident preference for life-sustaining treatment (RPLST). For residents who do not have formal prepared advance directive documents, the RPLST serves to define resident and family choices for resuscitation and implementation of fluids, nutrition, medications, and antibiotics. The most striking finding was the completion rate of the RPLST within 100 days of being admitted to the nursing home. Conclusion: Documentation of end-of-life preferences within 10 days of admission was achieved through the incorporation of RPLST during the resident admission process.

Abstract Objective To examine the rural–urban disparities of home-based care willingness among older adults and identify the influencing factors. Design A cross-sectional study. Setting The data used in this cross-sectional study were conducted in Shandong province. Study participants 7070 older adults (60 years and older) with complete data were included in this analysis from the 2017 Survey of the Shandong Elderly Family Health Service. Intervention N/A. Main outcome measure The data were analyzed using logistic regression models to examine whether socio-demographic characteristic, physical health, loneliness score and other factors were associated with home-based care willingness in rural and urban older adults. After exploring the factors, we compared the difference. Results Of 7070 participants, 66.9% were rural older adults and 33.1% were urban. The urban older adults less likely chose home-based care than the rural (OR = 0.667; P < 0.05). Binary logistic regression analysis showed that age (P < 0.05), income (P < 0.05), current employment (P < 0.05) and loneliness (P < 0.05) were significantly associated with the home-based care willingness both in rural and urban residence. Besides, the number of family members (P = 0.010), education years (P = 0.026) and financial support from children (P = 0.017) were associated factors of rural respondents’ home-based care willingness. The bad self-reported-health-status-urban-older adults (P = 0.026) were more willing for home-based care. Conclusions The research we have done suggests that there is a residence difference toward home-based care willingness among older adults. Targeted policies and an age-friendly environment should be made for different subgroups of older adults.

Abstract:

Abstract VA offers multiple programs and services to support caregivers of US military Veterans. However, access for rural Veterans and caregivers is challenging due to distance from VA medical facilities. VA Video Connect (VVC) is a remote healthcare platform that enables Veterans to connect directly with VA clinicians through a secure, encrypted video connection. Rural caregivers and Veterans can participate in caregiver services through their own computer or another device from their home, reducing the need for travel to distant VA facilities. In 2018, VA’s Caregiver Support Program and Office of Rural Health developed an implementation pilot to engage eighteen VA Caregiver Support Coordinators (CSCs) in using VVC to monitor and support 180 Veteran/caregiver dyads enrolled in VA’s Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers. The presentation will provide an overview of each phase of implementation, report usability and outcome data from CSCs and caregivers, and discuss implications for broader implementation.

Abstract:

Abstract Social isolation has been linked to negative health outcomes, especially among older adults. Although ability to maintain social contact and existing ties to one’s community is a primary benefit of receiving long-term supports and services in a community-based setting, few studies explored how geography might shape these residents’ access to family members and friends. The current study explores this question in the context of adult foster homes (AFH), a type of family-style residential care licensed for five or fewer unrelated adults. Using cross-sectional data collected annually from 1,500 AFHs between 2015 and 2020, the study examines whether older adults residing in rural and urban AFHs in Oregon differ in terms of levels of distinct types of contact with their existing social networks. AFHs were designated as rural/urban at the zip code level using the definitions provided by the state coordinating organization for rural health. Results from negative binomial regression models show that rural residents were significantly less likely to receive help from their family members and friends in getting to medical appointments or outside activities (e.g., meals, walks, shopping) or receive social visits or phone calls compared to their urban counterparts. Rural and urban residents had similar levels of help with personal care and taking medications. These results remained unchanged after accounting for a set of home (e.g., Medicaid contract) and resident characteristics (e.g., acuity). These findings suggest important public health implications for improving rural residents’ social connectedness and interventions aiming at improving social participation in long-term care residents.

Historic preservation has significant impact on communities. The purpose of this study was to involve students in a historically based, culturally diverse community project in a rural region of Arkansas in order to make a positive impact in that region. Interior Design Program students (n = 6) within the Department of Family and Consumer Sciences at the University of Central Arkansas adopted the boyhood home of Levon Helm in Marvell, Arkansas, as their capstone project. This site was chosen based on the criteria of the study and was need-based for the Marvell, AR, community. The capstone project charged students to develop a strategic plan using design skills from Family and Consumer Sciences Guidelines in the Housing and Interior Design Area of Study to improve tourism, economy, and civic pride of the rural Arkansas community. The project results: the structure was named to the Arkansas Register of Historic Places, funds were raised for restoration of the property, nationwide publicity was received, and a positive economic impact was realized.

Abstract:

Despite the historical centrality of Western cities as sites of queer cultural settlement, larger global economic and political forces have vociferously shaped, dispersed, and altered dreams of mobility for gay Taiwanese millennials in the age of globalization. While Taiwanese gay millennials follow a seemingly universal “rural-to-urban,” “East-to-West” movement trajectory, this study also explicates local nuanced ramifications running against the common trend. Drawn upon five-year ethnographic studies in Taiwan, this study examines how parents could to some extent conform to societal pressures by co-creating a life narrative to the society. Parents/family appear to contribute to how participants' decision on spatial movement but gay male millennials with supportive parents are eventually “going home.” However, the concept of home is configured by multiple economic and social forces involving (1) the optimal distance with the biological family and (2) the proper performances of consumption policed and imposed by the gay community in the neoliberal Taiwanese society.

Abstract:

Abstract In 2030, predictions indicate that dementia will affect 75 million people worldwide and increase to 132 million by 2050. Persons’ with dementia (PWD) associated behavioral changes are highly correlated with caregiver burden. Caregivers of PWD commonly report concerns regarding personal and home safety, meaningful activities, advance care planning, and evaluation and diagnosis of dementia of the PWD. Further, caregivers’ emotional response to PWD challenging behavior has greater influence than the actual behavior on decisions to place PWD in a nursing home. Caregiver intervention reduces behavioral and psychological symptoms in the PWD, the caregiver’s emotional distress from these symptoms, and cost to healthcare systems. Yet, one in four dementia caregivers are not receiving dementia support services. Difficulty attending in person clinic-based appointments may be one barrier to caregivers engaging in treatment. This symposium highlights telehealth approaches, by various disciplines (Geriatrician, Neurologist, Geriatric Psychiatric, Geropsychologist, and Occupational Therapist), across urban and rural settings to address caregiver needs and improved access to care. The first presentation will focus on education of rural caregivers of PWD and increased connection to services (Sussman et al).

Abstract:

African American preschoolers living in rural areas are potentially at greater risk for entering schools less well prepared than their white counterparts. This article examines the importance of family involvement and engagement and dimensions of cultural competence needed to work with African American rural families to develop culturally responsive strategies for both home and early education school environments. Recommendations for rural service providers to improve African American preschooler learning outcomes also are shared.

Abstract:

Background The Federal Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program is a national child abuse prevention strategy that serves families at risk for child maltreatment throughout the United States. Significant portions of the clients are young mothers who screen positive for clinically significant perinatal depressive symptoms and experience relational discord that worsens their symptoms. Although home visitors refer those who screen positive for depression to community-based treatment, they infrequently obtain treatment because of multiple barriers. These barriers are compounded for home visited families in rural areas. Objective This pilot study aimed to explore the feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of a video-delivered family therapy intervention on reducing maternal depressive symptoms and improving family functioning and emotion regulation. Methods A total of 13 home visited families received the video-delivered family therapy intervention. This study included a historical comparison group of mothers (N=13) who were previously enrolled in home visiting and screened positive for clinically significant perinatal depressive symptoms but refused treatment. A licensed marriage and family therapist delivered the family therapy intervention using Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act–compliant videoconferencing technology on a computer from an office. Families participated in sessions in their homes using cell phones, tablets, and computers equipped with microphones and video cameras. Outcomes were measured following the final therapy session (post intervention) and 2 months later (follow-up). Depressive symptom scores of mothers who received the video-delivered family therapy intervention were compared with those of mothers in the historical comparison group over a 6-month period. Univariate statistics and correlations were calculated to assess measures of feasibility. Percentages and qualitative thematic analysis were used to assess acceptability. Wilcoxon signed-rank tests were used to assess changes in maternal and family outcomes. Results No families dropped out of the study. All families reported that the technology was convenient and easy to use. All families reported high satisfaction with the video-delivered intervention. Nearly all families reported that they preferred video-delivered family therapy instead of clinic-based therapy. Therapeutic alliance was strong. Mothers demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in depressive symptoms (P=.001). When compared with mothers in the historical comparison group, those in the family therapy intervention showed a significant reduction in depressive symptoms (P=.001). Families demonstrated statistically significant improvements in family functioning (P=.02) and cognitive reappraisal (P=.004). Conclusions This pilot study yielded preliminary findings that support the feasibility, acceptability, and effectiveness of the video-delivered family therapy intervention for underserved home visited families in rural areas. Our findings are very promising, but more research is needed to ultimately influence mental health practices and policies that pertain to video-delivered mental health interventions in unsupervised settings (eg, homes).

Abstract:

South Dakota is one of the nation’s most rural and frontier states and has the highest proportion of rural dwellers in the Midwest. Many of the state’s counties suffer from provider shortages, with nurse practitioners increasingly being called upon to fill the role of the primary care provider in clinics and critical access hospitals. However, family nurse practitioner (FNP) education programs are not required to provide the training and skills necessary to meet the unique challenges of rural practice. An Upper Midwest land grant university prepares both masters and doctoral FNP students to fill primary care provider needs in South Dakota and the surrounding region. The purpose and scope of this two-year Advanced Nursing Education Workforce (ANEW) project was to enhance an existing academic/practice partnership to prepare primary care advanced practice registered nursing (APRN) students for practice in rural and/or underserved settings in the state and region. The ANEW project provided FNP students with a longitudinal primary care clinical traineeship experience in rural clinical settings. Trainees benefited from traineeship funds, learning advanced procedures and skill concepts through attendance at a series of educational workshops, and job placement efforts postgraduation. The ANEW project also provided for a comprehensive preceptor development collaborative designed to enhance competence and confidence for independent rural practice and facilitate job placement in rural communities after graduation. This project strengthened the quality of FNP education through an academic/practice partnership which resulted in a symbiotic, synergistic relationship to address rural work force supply and the identification of the knowledge and skills needed for current and future rural healthcare providers.

Abstract:

A study of 600 rural under-five mothers’ knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) in child care was performed in 4 southern provinces of Vietnam. The mothers were randomly selected and interviewed about sociodemographic factors, health seeking behaviour, and practice of home care of children and neonates. 93.2% of the mothers were literate and well-educated, which has been shown to be important for child health care. 98.5% were married suggesting a stable family, which is also of importance for child health. Only 17.3% had more than 2 children in their family. The mother was the main caretaker in 77.7% of the families. Only 1% would use quacks as their first health contact, but 25.2% would use a private clinic, which therefore eases the burden on the government system. Nearly 69% had given birth in a hospital, 27% in a commune health station, and only 2.7% at home without qualified assistance. 89% were giving exclusive breast feeding at 6 months, much more frequent than in the cities. The majority of the mothers could follow IMCI guideline for home care, although 25.2% did not deal correctly with cough and 38.7% did not deal correctly with diarrhoea. Standard information about Integrated Management of Childhood Illnesses (IMCI) based home care is still needed.

Abstract:

The story of the rural Chinese family household in the post-Mao period is generally told in one of three ways, which might be labelled modernization, tradition restored, and demographic determinism. Modernization parallels the family theories of classical sociology: economic development and education tend to undermine extended family living arrangements by instilling nuclear family preferences, while the relaxation of migration restrictions allows young men to seek their fortune away from home. “Tradition restored” sees collectivization as having undermined the foundation of the extended family household, the family economy. The return of family farming has, in this view, restored the conditions under which the extended family can flourish. The demographic determinisi view assumes that family preferences persist but that demographic structures change. Rising life expectancies and declining fertility should increase rates of family extension, since smaller families mean that there will be fewer brothers available to live with a surviving parent. Thus as the birth control cohorts come of age, the prevalence of extended households should increase.

Abstract:

Subsistence farming yields only a limited amount of farm products does not meet the needs of the family in rural Phewatal watershed. Because of this, remittance has become an important source of cash income to the agro-based communities of the watershed. To meet their basic needs, leaving their family back home, the young which is 391 from 292 sample households, have gone abroad for jobs, They send approximately Rs 58226000 annually to their family. On average, each household receives approximately Rs 199000 per year; however, the average amount differs widely from nation to nation and community to community. Only a small size of people have gone to affluent countries and 74 p.c. of the total have gone to the Gulf region. Such type of foreign employment has made the distribution of remittance fairly uniform among the households. In addition to this, except in some cases, increasing number of foreign employees brings small positive changes on remittance amount of the households in Phewatal watershed.Repositioning Vol.1(1) 2016: 81-90

Abstract:

Background. Obesity rates are disproportionately high among rural and American Indian (AI) children. Health behaviors contributing to child obesity are influenced by parents at home. Engaging parents remains a challenge, particularly among low-income and ethnic minority families. Aims. The aim of this study was to learn how AI parents living on a rural AI reservation support and engage with their children’s nutrition and physical activity behaviors at home. Methods. Parents with children ages 6 to 12 years living on one, rural AI reservation participated. Focus groups and interviews were conducted, using a 14-question moderator’s guide. A systematic, iterative content analysis was applied to the transcripts. Results. Twenty-five parents (52% AI or Alaska Native) participated in 3 focus groups (n = 17) and interviews (n = 8). Themes related to enhancers included role modeling and whole family and child-initiated activities. Barriers included resources, child safety concerns, driving distances, and competing family priorities. Themes related to strategies for change included opportunities for peer learning from other local families, creating fun, program support for all supplies and incentives, and incorporation of storytelling and multicultural activities. Discussion. This study advances knowledge to promote parental engagement with child health behavior in the home, including unique themes of inclusiveness, culture-focused, and intergenerational activities. Conclusion. Results may inform interventions seeking to engage parents living in rural and AI reservation communities in home-based child behavior change efforts.

Abstract:

This study is an exploration of the digital divide between urban and rural areas, and it was conducted to assess the impact of the minimum living guarantee system on online education in China. The results of the research showed that 83.38% of students in low-income families have been able to participate in online education at home during the pandemic, while 16.62% of students in low-income families have been unable to do so. The absence of computers, smartphones, and broadband Internet access in low-income households reduces the likelihood of children being able to participate in online education at home. In terms of accessing online education at home, students from urban areas have obvious advantages over those from rural ones, and students from minimum living guarantee families have obvious advantages over those from marginal minimum living guarantee ones. This study also showed that the presence of online education-related amenities, including computers, smartphones, and Internet access, mediates the relationship between the subsistence allowance system, Hukou, and accessibility of online education. To address this issue, this paper includes suggestions for bridging the digital divide in online education.

Abstract:

Objectives: This study aims to explore the rural residents’ preferences on various aspects of the patient-centered medical home (PCMH) model and the associated physical environment features. Background: The PCMH model has gained popularity as an innovative care model that intends to improve patient experience and outcomes while reducing costs. Yet few studies focused on patients’ perspective, even less considered the needs of the rural communities. Method: Using a convenience sample, an exploratory survey was completed by 362 rural residents in the Midwestern region. Survey items were designed to gather information on both rural residents’ preferences for five key PCMH attributes (comprehensive, patient-centered, coordinated, accessible, and quality) and of the physical environment that supports these attributes. Analyses were arranged along these key attributes. Results: Results indicated that residents’ demographics affect their preferences for spatial features for PCMH. The three most important environmental factors for PCMH for the rural residents are the privacy, extra chairs in the exam room for family, and space that supports information sharing and communication among patient, family, and healthcare staff. Through structural equation modeling analysis, residents’ preferences on comprehensive care, patient-centered care, coordinated care, quality, and safety have shown to affect their preference for the space features. The open-ended survey shows that rural residents are mostly satisfied with their current healthcare environment in terms of supporting patient-centered care, while other aspects still have room for future improvement. Conclusions: Overall, this exploratory study identified important attributes of the physical environment that can support PCMH from rural residents’ perspective.

Abstract:

For several years, demographic trends and changing ideas about responsibilities for elder care in Japan have contributed to the desire, or need, for families to seek out new care approaches. This article focuses on one alternative to traditional approaches to caring for elder family members—the home-helper program that is available through the Japanese long-term care insurance program. Using ethnographic data collected in northern Japan, it will be argued that the home-helper program forms a compensatory elder care system that is intended to augment family-provided care and social support, rather than to promote independent living. This compensatory approach to elder care is based upon an intergenerational social contract in which it is assumed that some degree of dependence on family members is both an expected and preferred outcome of growing old.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTThis study is an attempt to explore the dynamics in a group of family caregivers in a small rural setting in Sweden. Thirty-nine caregivers giving extensive help to elderly family members, who were all on the verge of institutionalisation, were interviewed. The results showed that the motives of caring were usually based on feelings of reciprocity and that the perceived burden of care was related to the proximity of the carer to the person cared for. Despite the existence of a rather well-developed system of formal care, these resources were poorly coordinated with the informal provision of care.

Abstract:

In this article we aim to study how Dutch children’s individual destinies result from the complex interplay of family setting and local conditions in a rural environment. We focus on their final move from the parental home, and we will analyse not only timing and incidence of leaving, but also the destinations. To do this, we propose a multi-level competing risk analysis of migration destinations. We focus on two groups: the children of farmers and those of rural workers. Dutch farmers and workers differ in the type of family economy in which children were integrated, and contrasting them will allow us to explain the speed, the directions, and the individual and family backgrounds of the process of leaving agriculture. We make use of the Historical Sample of the Netherlands to analyse last migrations of 8,338 children of farmers and rural workers. As we cover the entire country, we can study the full impact of regional differences on type of agriculture and inheritance, in combination with the family composition. Our results indicate significant effects of specialised versus traditional, mixed farming on the migration behaviour of farmers’ and rural workers’ children, as well as the importance of the number of siblings of the same sex and birth order. The variations in the effects of the sibship among regions with different agricultural systems demonstrate the importance of gender-specific divisions of labour on leaving home.

Abstract:

Abstract To date, nearly 40 U.S. states have passed the Caregiver Advise Record and Enable (CARE) Act to support family caregivers during transitions from hospital to home. These laws require hospitals to: 1) record designated family caregivers’ name in a patient medical records during a hospital stay; 2) inform the caregiver when the patient will be discharged; 3) provide education and instructions on care tasks needed for post-hospital discharge. Transitions from hospital to home are often fraught with adverse event risk and poor continuity of care, especially for rural patients with progressive life-limiting conditions. The CARE ACT has potential to address healthcare system factors that are sometimes attributable to poor transitions in care. Our presentation focuses on preliminary findings from an intervention that provides teaching, guidance, and counseling to caregivers caring for an individual receiving palliative care in the hospital and transitioning home to a rural setting. Findings suggest that the CARE ACT may be vital, but not fully sufficient, for successful transitions. Additional targets for caregiver interventions to improve transitions for this subset of very ill patients include: 1) attend to caregivers’ medical and non-medical needs which may impact their capacity to provide care; 2) advise clinical teams to communicate truthfully about prognosis and likely outcomes when creating post-hospital plans of care; 3) encourage caregivers to identify and engage services early in the transition; 4) urge caregivers to draw on multiple sources for social support. Findings can help optimize the CARE Act implementation, particularly in states with large rural populations.

ABSTRACTThis paper analyses the interactions amongst family, household and extended kin through an examination of two ‘circulations’ of children within rural Irish communities during the first half of the twentieth century: (1) the daily journey from home to school; (2) going to live with relatives other than parents. Drawing on life-history narratives, the article develops a new perspective on the stem-family system in Ireland by showing how ‘incomplete’ family households formed integral parts of local kinship circles and were deeply engaged in the everyday lives of ‘complete’ family households, including the promotion of extended family survival and social mobility.

Abstract:

Purpose: Nurse practitioners (NPs) are rendering health care services in rural areas in increasing numbers, yet little is known about clinical skills and patient care management activities performed by these advanced practice nurses in the rural environment. The purpose of this descriptive study of rural NPs was to identify skills and patient care management activities that they have performed and considered critical to Kansas rural practice. Sample: A convenience sample of 208 nurse practitioners (NP) in rural and frontier Kansas were emailed a survey that asked about skills and activities they perform in their rural practice. Sixty-three responded for a response rate of 30%. Findings: The analysis produced a list of 26 skills and 37 patient care management activities critical to Kansas rural NP practice. Most of the skills/procedures were learned after graduation. Almost all the respondents reported additional training/certifications in advanced life support and trauma. The majority of respondents were family nurse practitioners who practiced in a variety of rural settings. “I grew up in a rural setting” and “Autonomy of practice” were the two top factors that influenced their decision to practice in a rural setting. Conclusion: The analysis produced a list of skills and patient care management activities critical to rural NP practice. Schools of nursing may find these lists useful as they prepare NPs for the rural workforce.

El "turismo de vuelta a casa", el "turismo de retorno", es un tipo de "turismo rural" considerada por expertos, académicos y legisladores como importante en desarrollo rural, en especial, para las áreas rurales despobladas del sur de Europa. Se trata de un tipo de viajeros que vuelve a sus raíces, en muchos casos donde tienen una segunda vivienda o donde comparten casa con los familiares o amigos oriundos. Este turismo busca un hábitat imaginado, basado en experiencias personales donde la vida familiar es esencial para repetir la visita, y se caracteriza llevar a cabo prácticas que presenta matices diferenciales respecto al clásico turismo rural. En este artículo tratamos de identificar los patrones y motivaciones de este segmento del mercado turístico. “Back-home tourism”, "Tourism of return" or also typified as "Countryman tourism" is a category little considered by experts, academics and legislators in rural development, however in the last decades it is gaining prominence and special benefits are attributed to the unpopulated rural areas of the south of Europe. This tourism returns to their roots, in many cases where they have a second home or where they can share the home of relatives or friends. This tourism seeks an imagined habitat based on personal experience where family life is essential to repeat the visit and it is characterized by a consumption practice with nuances different from generic rural tourism. In this paper we try to identify the consumption patterns and motivations of this segment of the tourism market.
