Download or read book Ethnogeriatrics written by Lenise Cummings-Vaughn and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-10-05 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is divided into five parts and fifteen chapters that address these topics by examining ethnogeriatric foundations, research issues, clinical care in ethnogeriatrics, education and policy. Expertly written chapters, by practicing geriatricians, gerontologists, clinician researchers and clinician educators, present a systematic approach to recognizing, analyzing and addressing the challenges of meeting the healthcare needs of a diverse population and authors discuss ways in which to engage the community by increasing research participation and by investigating the most prevalent diseases found in ethnic minorities. Ethnogeriatrics discusses issues related to working with culturally diverse elders that tend not to be addressed in typical training curricula and is essential reading for geriatricians, hospitalists, advance practice nurses, social workers and others who are part of a multidisciplinary team that provides high quality care to older patients.

Download or read book Clinical Education in Geriatrics written by Judith L. Howe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-21 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights both recent innovations in professional health curricula and continuing education and interventions aimed at improving student attitudes towards geriatrics and aging. The contributors cover areas including simulation, online training, and standardized patients for evaluation, but also emphasize the important end-result of clinical training: to take care of real older adults outside the classroom. Importantly, this underscores the development of powerful learning experiences of students by sensitizing them to the frameworks of palliative care, cancer care, sexuality, and aging research, all of which serves as a powerful catalyst for creating a ‘pipeline’ of students who embrace aging as a central theme of their future work. As increased training in geriatrics is required to attune the health care workforce to the needs of older adults, this book will be of interest to those seeking to create a more age-friendly healthcare curriculum. This book was originally published as a special issue of the Gerontology & Geriatrics Education journal.

This book was released on 2011-03-04 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For many, caring for a chronically ill family member is “the right thing to do”, but it is also often a source of emotional hardship, physical stress, and social isolation. In response, skill-building, coping, and psychoeducational programs have emerged to help caregivers meet the changes and challenges in their – as well as the patients’ – lives. Education and Support Programs for Caregivers reveals the diversity of the caregiver population as well as their experiences and needs, and it introduces an empirically solid framework for planning, implementing, and evaluating caregiver programs. The book synthesizes current trends, exploring the effectiveness of different types of programs (e.g., clinic, community, home based) and groups (e.g., peer, professional, self-help), and how supportive programs lead to improved care. Coverage includes: Improving service delivery of education and support programs to underserved caregivers. Cultural, ethnic, and gender issues in conducting caregiver education and support groups. Utilization patterns (e.g., a key to understanding service needs). E-health, telehealth, and other technological developments in caregiver services. Evaluating the effectiveness and sustainability of programs. Recommendations for future practice, training, policy, and advocacy. Education and Support Programs for Caregivers offers a wealth of insights and ideas for researchers, practitioners, and graduate students across the caregiving fields, including psychology, social work, public health, geriatrics and gerontology, and medicine as well as public and education policy makers.

Download or read book Geragogics written by Celia M. Berdes and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this new book, a variety of European researchers and scholars present their most current and interesting research in the field of geragogics--the European term for gerontological education and educational gerontology. These professionals forward the concept of "geragogics" to open readers'minds and eyes to streams of geragogics research that have often been neglected in the U.S. Geragogics examines the history, scope, principles, and practice of geragogics, and defines some of the kinds of work that are being conducted in the field in Europe. It suggests new and exciting areas for research and promotes a new integration of gerontological education and educational gerontology, encouraging readers to move beyond the disciplinary and research conventions which have limited exploitation of the field. This state-of-the-art report on European research makes an exciting and informative volume. Along with a comprehensive overview of the field of geragogics, chapters in this book cover topics such as: the effects of participation in third age universities motivations for continuing education in old age measuring the working ability of aging workers driving education for the elderly educational approaches to serving elderly immigrants comparative life values of European and American elderly Academics and researchers in gerontological education and educational gerontology and professionals involved in international aging, European immigrant elderly, and programs of education and employment for the elderly will find this book a valuable addition to the literature. Geragogics is a thought-provoking journey through fields and perspectives often ignored in the United States.

This book was released on 2016-01-15 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interprofessional teamwork and collaborative practice are emerging as key elements of efficient and productive work in promoting health and treating patients. The vision for these collaborations is one where different health and/or social professionals share a team identity and work closely together to solve problems and improve delivery of care. Although the value of interprofessional education (IPE) has been embraced around the world - particularly for its impact on learning - many in leadership positions have questioned how IPE affects patent, population, and health system outcomes. This question cannot be fully answered without well-designed studies, and these studies cannot be conducted without an understanding of the methods and measurements needed to conduct such an analysis. This Institute of Medicine report examines ways to measure the impacts of IPE on collaborative practice and health and system outcomes. According to this report, it is possible to link the learning process with downstream person or population directed outcomes through thoughtful, well-designed studies of the association between IPE and collaborative behavior. Measuring the Impact of Interprofessional Education on Collaborative Practice and Patient Outcomes describes the research needed to strengthen the evidence base for IPE outcomes. Additionally, this report presents a conceptual model for evaluating IPE that could be adapted to particular settings in which it is applied. Measuring the Impact of Interprofessional Education on Collaborative Practice and Patient Outcomes addresses the current lack of broadly applicable measures of collaborative behavior and makes recommendations for resource commitments from interprofessional stakeholders, funders, and policy makers to advance the study of IPE.
