Abstract:
Human migration involves moving to a new permanent or semi-permanent location. Whether on an individual basis, in small groups or in large numbers, whether due to economic necessity (emigrants), sociocultural strife or the effects of war (refugees), it can contribute to stress in the mobile along with the settled population. Uncertainty then, increases the risk of psychosomatic disease in those relocating because of the changes in their personal/social support networks. The available healthcare for the displaced may not address their health needs adequately. Chapter 12 deliberates on this. Gender-related issues, with a female preponderance as victims come to the fore in displaced populations. These include the health effects of domestic and sexual violence or gender-based violence. International organisations, including the UN, the WHO, and FIGO, along with organisations from various countries that promote women's and children's health, have developed guidelines, and attempted to engender political will to endeavour to stop this preventable morbidity. Nevertheless, it persists with a biopsychosociocultural impact, and can be fatal. Unwanted pregnancies can result from gender-based violence or failed contraception with the pregnant woman seeking termination (abortion). Annually, about 42 million women resort to illegal methods of abortion, and risk grievous harm due to a lack of legalized services. Female genital mutilation, a form of gender-based violence with genitourinary sequelae that is carried out on girls, has global implications. It prevails due to cultural acceptance, despite major health consequences. It is illegal in the UK, and the RCOG has developed guidelines. Vignettes in this chapter illustrate these gender-related health issues.

Abstract:
In nursing homes, aggression is seen in almost 32% of residents. Often, there are medical causes associated with delirium to account for such aggressive behaviors. This chapter discusses the incidence of and issues related to resident-to-staff and resident-to-resident aggression involving patients with major neurocognitive disorders in long-term care settings. Often such aggression results in physical injuries to staff. Resident-to-staff aggression most commonly occurs during direct caregiving. Resident-to-resident assault is not uncommon and has been categorized into 13 major subtypes. Use of physical restraint and pharmacological interventions in response to agitation and aggression in nursing homes carries liability due to risk of injury. The chapter also addresses sexuality of elderly nursing home residents, federal regulations mandating the allowance of expression of sexual needs of residents, and barriers that can impede expression of sexuality by residents. The chapter concludes with a discussion of elder-to-caregiver aggression in the community, including violent behavior toward family and caregivers employed by home healthcare agencies.

Abstract:
This chapter provides an introduction to telemental health and its applicability in global resource-limited settings. The chapter presents two case studies of applicable technology-based provision of mental health services in the world. Using two examples from low income settings, one marked by poverty and lack of access and the other by war and violence, the projects highlight how telemental health is addressing the gap between knowledge and delivery of evidence-based healthcare in the field of mental health. The discussion serves to introduce the rest of the book with a highlight of the main concepts to be discussed in later chapters.

Abstract:
This chapter puts pragmatist egalitarianism to work, and shows how it reconciles many of the disputes that philosophical egalitarians are engaged in. It also considers inequality in the real world and provides an analysis of racial inequality in the United States. Racial inequality involves a complex imbroglio of (a) institutions like banks, the criminal justice system, media of various kinds, public schools, the healthcare system, zoning laws, electoral politics, public transportation, etc., (b) private individual feelings and biases about black work ethic, loan worthiness, personal responsibility, attitude, ambition, etc., (c) nebulous cultural meanings about black inferiority, violence, criminality, lesser intelligence, and, crucially, (d) the subtle ways in which (a), (b), and (c) mutually reinforce each other. The argument in this chapter is that all three variables are irreducible, triangulated, and mutually constituting and supporting.

Full text
Abstract:
Vulnerability is a fundamental aspect of existence, giving rise to the need for care in various forms. Yet we are not all vulnerable in the same way, and not all vulnerabilities are equally recognised or cared for. This transdisciplinary volume considers how vulnerability and care are shaped by relations of power within contemporary contexts of war, development, environmental degradation, sexual violence, aging populations and economic precarity. It proposes that care for vulnerable populations or individuals is inseparable from other political processes of recognition, welfare, healthcare and security, whilst also exploring vulnerability as a shared, generative condition that makes caring possible. Ethnographic and narrative accounts of vulnerable life and caring relations in various geographical regions – including Japan, Uganda, Micronesia, Iraq, Mexico, the UK and the US – are interspersed with perspectives from philosophy, International Relations, social and cultural theory, and more, resulting in a compelling series of intellectual exchanges, creative frictions and provocative insights.

Abstract:
Although telemental health (TMH) in Africa shares much with TMH in well-resourced nations, significant differences exist. These mainly result from relatively small funds available for all forms of healthcare, inadequate infrastructure, lack of mental healthcare personnel, and cross-cultural difficulties. The majority of individuals with severe mental illness receive no treatment in most African countries. This lack has been alleviated in part by some “North–South” and “South–South” TMH programs, in addition to other locally initiated programs. African TMH has emphasized provision of a wide variety of TMH—education, managing psychotrauma in regions of violent upheavals, and the provision of other TMH services. Novel African telecommunications techniques and means of providing TMH, for example using broadcast media and diasporic mental healthcare personnel, are outlined. So, future African TMH will surely grow because of decreasing equipment costs, but principally because of proven effectiveness and the power of such interventions.

Full text
Abstract:
Working as a psychiatrist in a jail or prison presents many ethical issues, many unique to the correctional setting. Obligations to the law, professional standards, the community, and public health require a complex appreciation of competing values. It remains an extraordinary commentary on the state of mental health that the largest mental health institutions in the United States are jails and prisons. In daily practice, acknowledging healthcare, individual, and professional values in a robust vision of professionalism means advocating for clinical values and opposing mistreatment. Making the limits of confidentiality clear is a time-honored element of the informed consent process and need not be diluted in the correctional system. Honoring clear boundaries between treatment and forensic evaluation are the crux of this issue: confidentiality warnings and access to counsel cannot be one-off affairs that do not account for the cognitive, educational, or mental health vulnerabilities of the patient in a correctional setting. Developing trust, offering transparency, and delivering clear descriptions of procedural requirements are the lessons of an empirical database that supports this approach and can lead to more collaboration and less violence. This chapter presents a discussion of the critical concerns, including informed consent and coercion, dual agency, appropriate access to care, and managing professional boundaries and standards.

Full text
Abstract:
The CDC Field Epidemiology Manual is the definitive resource for the most up-to-date guidance for epidemiologists and other experts conducting field investigations to address acute public health concerns that require prompt action. This latest edition (an update of the 3rd edition of the popular book Field Epidemiology, edited by Dr. Michael Gregg) offers practical advice to guide investigators through the core elements of field investigations, beginning with initiating operations and ending with developing interventions and communicating findings to the public. The manual also provides special considerations to address challenges that often arise during field investigations, such as addressing legal issues, working with multiple state and federal agencies, navigating a multinational outbreak investigation, and working within an incident management structure. The manual includes updated information on using new tools for field investigations, such as the latest technologies for data collection and management and incorporating data from geographic information systems (GIS). Finally, the manual includes tips for investigations in a wide variety of settings, including healthcare and community congregate settings, and different types of outbreaks, including acute enteric disease outbreaks, those suspected to be related to intentional use of biologic and toxic agents, and outbreaks of suicide, violence, and other forms of injury. The manual is written primarily for epidemiologists who will be conducting field investigations in local, state, federal, or international settings. However, others who contribute to field investigations (e.g., laboratory scientists, lawyers, experts in public policy and communications) will also find the book to be an excellent source of information. The manual is written in an easily readable format, including boxes and bulleted points, to provide greater utility for investigators in the field.

Abstract:
Since Muhammad Bouazizi set himself on fire in Tunisia on December 17, 2010, galvanizing the Arab uprisings that continue today, the entire Middle East landscape has changed in ways that were unimaginable years before. In spite of the early hype about a so-called "Arab Spring" and the prominence observers gave to calls for the downfall of regimes and an end to their abuses, most of the protests and uprisings born of Bouazizi's self-immolation have had disastrous results across the whole Middle East. While the old powers reasserted their control with violence in Egypt and Bahrain, Libya, Yemen, and Syria have virtually ceased to exist as states, torn apart by civil wars. In other states, namely Morocco and Algeria, the forces of reaction were able to maintain their hold on power, while in the "hybrid democracies" of Lebanon, Palestine, and Iraq, protests against government inefficiency, corruption, and arrogance have done little to bring about the sort of changes protesters have demanded. Simultaneously, ISIS, along with other jihadi groups (al-Qaeda, al-Qaeda affiliates, Ansar al-Shariahs, etc.) has thrived in an environment marked by state breakdown. This book explains these changes, outlining the social, political, and economic contours of what some have termed "the new Middle East." One of the leading scholars of modern Middle Eastern history, James L. Gelvin lucidly distills the political and economic reasons behind the dramatic news arriving each day from Syria and the rest of the Middle East. He shows how and why bad governance, stagnant economies, poor healthcare, climate change, population growth, refugee crises, food and water insecurity, and war increasingly threaten human security in the region.
