This book was released on 1998-10-27 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: America's Children is a comprehensive, easy-to-read analysis of the relationship between health insurance and access to care. The book addresses three broad questions: How is children's health care currently financed? Does insurance equal access to care? How should the nation address the health needs of this vulnerable population? America's Children explores the changing role of Medicaid under managed care; state-initiated and private sector children's insurance programs; specific effects of insurance status on the care children receive; and the impact of chronic medical conditions and special health care needs. It also examines the status of "safety net" health providers, including community health centers, children's hospitals, school-based health centers, and others and reviews the changing patterns of coverage and tax policy options to increase coverage of private-sector, employer-based health insurance. In response to growing public concerns about uninsured children, last year Congress voted to provide $24 billion over five years for new state insurance initiatives. This volume will serve as a primer for concerned federal policymakers and regulators, state agency officials, health plan decisionmakers, health care providers, children's health advocates, and researchers.

Book excerpt: Most parents of hospitalized or soon to be hospitalized children are faced with the dilemma of not knowing how to prepare their children, communicate concerns, and not knowing what to expect from the child. Research has shown how a hospital experience can have lasting effects on children, and it must not be forgotten that the family is the primary support system. Educating the child and the family is very important. This book offers insight on how the hospital experience can affect a child, suggestions on how to communicate more effectively, and some tips on how to help the child cope with hospitalization before, during, and after. It is the intention of the information in this booklet to be a great help to parents of hospitalized children everywhere.

This book was released on 2016-11-21 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decades of research have demonstrated that the parent-child dyad and the environment of the familyâ€"which includes all primary caregiversâ€"are at the foundation of children's well- being and healthy development. From birth, children are learning and rely on parents and the other caregivers in their lives to protect and care for them. The impact of parents may never be greater than during the earliest years of life, when a child's brain is rapidly developing and when nearly all of her or his experiences are created and shaped by parents and the family environment. Parents help children build and refine their knowledge and skills, charting a trajectory for their health and well-being during childhood and beyond. The experience of parenting also impacts parents themselves. For instance, parenting can enrich and give focus to parents' lives; generate stress or calm; and create any number of emotions, including feelings of happiness, sadness, fulfillment, and anger. Parenting of young children today takes place in the context of significant ongoing developments. These include: a rapidly growing body of science on early childhood, increases in funding for programs and services for families, changing demographics of the U.S. population, and greater diversity of family structure. Additionally, parenting is increasingly being shaped by technology and increased access to information about parenting. Parenting Matters identifies parenting knowledge, attitudes, and practices associated with positive developmental outcomes in children ages 0-8; universal/preventive and targeted strategies used in a variety of settings that have been effective with parents of young children and that support the identified knowledge, attitudes, and practices; and barriers to and facilitators for parents' use of practices that lead to healthy child outcomes as well as their participation in effective programs and services. This report makes recommendations directed at an array of stakeholders, for promoting the wide-scale adoption of effective programs and services for parents and on areas that warrant further research to inform policy and practice. It is meant to serve as a roadmap for the future of parenting policy, research, and practice in the United States.

Download or read book Depression in Parents, Parenting, and Children written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-10-28 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depression is a widespread condition affecting approximately 7.5 million parents in the U.S. each year and may be putting at least 15 million children at risk for adverse health outcomes. Based on evidentiary studies, major depression in either parent can interfere with parenting quality and increase the risk of children developing mental, behavioral and social problems. Depression in Parents, Parenting, and Children highlights disparities in the prevalence, identification, treatment, and prevention of parental depression among different sociodemographic populations. It also outlines strategies for effective intervention and identifies the need for a more interdisciplinary approach that takes biological, psychological, behavioral, interpersonal, and social contexts into consideration. A major challenge to the effective management of parental depression is developing a treatment and prevention strategy that can be introduced within a two-generation framework, conducive for parents and their children. Thus far, both the federal and state response to the problem has been fragmented, poorly funded, and lacking proper oversight. This study examines options for widespread implementation of best practices as well as strategies that can be effective in diverse service settings for diverse populations of children and their families. The delivery of adequate screening and successful detection and treatment of a depressive illness and prevention of its effects on parenting and the health of children is a formidable challenge to modern health care systems. This study offers seven solid recommendations designed to increase awareness about and remove barriers to care for both the depressed adult and prevention of effects in the child. The report will be of particular interest to federal health officers, mental and behavioral health providers in diverse parts of health care delivery systems, health policy staff, state legislators, and the general public.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parents' participation in the care of their hospitalized children is recognized as a key component of effective child health care. The current study aimed to investigating the congruence between nurses' desired for parent' participation in the care of their hospitalized children, and the parents' actual participation in the care. A descriptive correlation cross-sectional design was used by utilizing a self-administered questionnaire. 227 nurses working at pediatric wards and 294 parents of hospitalized children aged 12 years and under were a convenience sample of this study. Two categories were derived from the study: activities related to physical care and psycho-social support. There were positive correlations between parents' participation in care and parents' experience to hospitalization to experts' females' nurses holding BSc. degree, children with chronic disease, less than six years aged, with prolonged staying at hospital. Recognizing the value of parents' participation, as an important issue and one that must not be ignored, health care managers and policy makers need to play a more visible and instrumental role in developing policies related to parents' participation.

This book was released on 2008-12-17 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The care of the critically ill or injured child begins with timely, prompt, and aggressive res- citation and stabilization. Ideally, stabilization should occur before the onset of organ failure in order to achieve the best possible outcomes. In the following pages, an international panel of experts provides an in-depth discussion of the early recognition, resuscitation, and stabilization of the critically ill or injured child. Once again, we would like to dedicate this textbook to our families and to the physicians and nurses who provide steadfast care every day in pediatric intensive care units across the globe. Derek S. Wheeler Hector R. Wong Thomas P. Shanley V Preface to Pediatric Critical Care Medicine: Basic Science and Clinical Evidence The ? eld of critical care medicine is growing at a tremendous pace, and tremendous advances in the understanding of critical illness have been realized in the last decade. My family has directly bene? ted from some of the technological and scienti? c advances made in the care of critically ill children. My son Ryan was born during my third year of medical school. By some peculiar happenstance, I was nearing completion of a 4-week rotation in the newborn intensive care unit (NICU). The head of the pediatrics clerkship was kind enough to let me have a few days off around the time of the delivery—my wife, Cathy, was 2 weeks past her due date and had been scheduled for elective induction.

This book was released on 2016 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Findings: The quantitative survey revealed that families were affected moderately by their children's hospitalization. Social functioning was affected the most, followed by the extra burden and psychological impact. In terms of family coping, one strategy, 'effort to maintain positive and active parental care', was regarded as the most helpful, followed by 'maximizing quality and quantity of child care'. The identified predictors of family impact were the total number of days of all admissions and the severity of a child's disease. The predictors of family coping effectiveness were the number of readmissions, family with a religious background, and age of the hospitalized child. To understand family issues in detail, some parents were interviewed. Four themes emerged from the nineteen sets of parents' interviews: family impact, family coping, family adaptation and unmet family needs. The findings have contributed to the in-depth understanding of family adaptation, while also provided important operational data for guiding the development and improvement of family-centered care in clinical settings in Mainland China. Conclusion: This study has generated insights into family adaptation by investigating how families were affected by and coped with their cancer children's hospitalization in Mainland China. The findings, which delineated the challenges the families had encountered, their coping strategies and the effectiveness of these, the characteristics of mal-adapted and bon-adapted families, and unmet family needs, have provided in-depth information for clinical nurses to support families to achieve bon-adaptation and improve the quality of clinical service. Success in fostering positive family adaptation requires a strengthening of family attributes and synergistic efforts by the healthcare providers, hospitals, the government and other communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hospitalized Child: Psychosocial Issues is a comprehensive, abstracted bibliography focusing on the behavioral and developmental consequences of short-term, long-term or recurrent hospitalization during childhood and adolescence. The emphasis of this volume is on the psychosocial issues related to the hospital experience/environ ment, rather than on adaptation to or coping with particular disease states or terminal illness. Publications are included which identify potential problems of hospitalization, coping mechanisms of patients, parents, and staff, and possible solutions. For example, the articles covered in this volume discuss the trauma which may result from the child's separation from mother/family/peers, anxiety over medical pro cedures, unfamiliarity of the hospital environment, absence from school, restrictions on physical activity, forced dependency and con cerns over body image. The search for solutions to adaptation diffi culties often results in the creation of new hospital programs. These too are reviewed in this bibliography. Examples include child-life programs, the care-by-parent units, foster grandparent/surrogate mother programs, and hospital or surgical orientation programs. New therapeutic approaches have been attempted in a hospital setting, in cluding bibliotherapy, puppet therapy, play therapy and mutual-story telling techniques. Each of these innovations is represented in the bibliography. Further, hospital redesign schemes are reviewed, in cluding the feasibility of separate adolescent wards. And finall~, modification of hospital policy has been examined, including estab lishment of liberal visiting privileges, parent rooming-in, day v vi PREFACE surgery, and improved communication between patient, parent, and hos pital staff.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Continuities and Discontinuities in Development" was the theme for the Second Biennial DPRG Retreat, a three-day meeting held at Estes Park, Colorado, in June 1982. The meeting was sponsored by the Devel opmental Psychobiology Research Group (DPRG) of the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Colorado School of Medicine. The DPRG is a group of individuals conducting research in many areas of develop ment who meet on a regular basis to present and discuss their work and receive feedback and encouragement. In 1974, this group was awarded an endowment fund by the Grant Foundation, the aims of which were to facilitate the research of young investigators, to encourage new re search, and to provide seed money for collaborative ventures. Much of the work reported in this volume and in the earlier volume from the First DPRG Retreat is the result of that support. In addition to the work of the members of the DPRG, a select group of guests was invited to participate in the meeting and contribute to this volume. The chapters by William Greenough, Jerome Kagan, and Michael Rutter result from the participation of these scholars at the retreat. We would like to acknowledge the support of a number of indi viduals who have been instrumental in supporting the DPRG as a whole, as well as those who contributed directly to the Second Biennial Retreat and to the volume.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Highlighting the interplay between basic research and intervention, this volume focuses on common stressful life experiences that present significant challenges to children's healthy development. Fifteen stressors are discussed with regard to both short-and long-term effects. The authors identify factors that explain variability in children's adjustment to these stressors and evaluate preventive interventions designed to facilitate coping. Notable chapters include a discussion of the many uncontrollable stressors to which inner-city youth are exposed and a thorough treatment of children's adaptation to divorce. Each chapter follows a common outline, allowing comparison among stressors.
