Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medically-related stress for family members of emergency room (ER) patients is an increasing concern for many Americans. In 1996, there were more than 90 million emergency department visits nationwide (Tintinalli, Ruiz, & Krome, 1996). Research findings support the assumptions that family members may be at risk for stress associated with exposure to traumatic incidents (Meichenbaum, 1994) and for stress associated with patients' conditions and the required medical procedures (Burish & Lyles, 1983; Dahlquist, Gil, Armstrong, Ginsberg, & Jones, 1985; Jay & Elliott, 1990; Lichtman, Taylor, Wood, Bluning, Dosik, & Leibowitz, 1984) Treating medically-related stressors for family members of critically ill or injured patients presents several important challenges for the ER social worker. The present study focused on social work in the emergency room in a U.S. Air Force medical center in Biloxi, MS. Generalizing from the Air Force medical system to the civilian health care sector must be done with caution as the populations served by military and civilian hospitals may be different. Eligibility for military medical services falls under specific guidelines that may influence the age groups of populations served by a military emergency department. Even within the Air Force medical system, emergency services and populations served may vary depending on the overseas, stateside, or remote stateside location of a base, or the size of a medical center, a hospital, or a clinic.

Nurses need know what proven techniques and interventions they can use to enhance patient outcomes. To address this need, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), with additional funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, has prepared this comprehensive, 1,400-page, handbook for nurses on patient safety and quality -- Patient Safety and Quality: An Evidence-Based Handbook for Nurses. (AHRQ Publication No. 08-0043)." - online AHRQ blurb, http://www.ahrq.gov/qual/nurseshdbk/

Book excerpt: Patient-centered, high-quality health care relies on the well-being, health, and safety of health care clinicians. However, alarmingly high rates of clinician burnout in the United States are detrimental to the quality of care being provided, harmful to individuals in the workforce, and costly. It is important to take a systemic approach to address burnout that focuses on the structure, organization, and culture of health care. Taking Action Against Clinician Burnout: A Systems Approach to Professional Well-Being builds upon two groundbreaking reports from the past twenty years, To Err Is Human: Building a Safer Health System and Crossing the Quality Chasm: A New Health System for the 21st Century, which both called attention to the issues around patient safety and quality of care. This report explores the extent, consequences, and contributing factors of clinician burnout and provides a framework for a systems approach to clinician burnout and professional well-being, a research agenda to advance clinician well-being, and recommendations for the field.

At least 17.7 million individuals in the United States are caregivers of an older adult with a health or functional limitation. The nation's family caregivers provide the lion's share of long-term care for our older adult population. They are also central to older adults' access to and receipt of health care and community-based social services. Yet the need to recognize and support caregivers is among the least appreciated challenges facing the aging U.S. population. Families Caring for an Aging America examines the prevalence and nature of family caregiving of older adults and the available evidence on the effectiveness of programs, supports, and other interventions designed to support family caregivers. This report also assesses and recommends policies to address the needs of family caregivers and to minimize the barriers that they encounter in trying to meet the needs of older adults.

Book excerpt: Psychological Crisis Intervention: The SAFER-R Model is designed to provide the reader with a simple set of guidelines for the provision of psychological first aid (PFA). The model of psychological first aid (PFA) for individuals presented in this volume is the SAFER-R model developed by the authors. Arguably it is the most widely used tactical model of crisis intervention in the world with roughly 1 million individuals trained in its operational and derivative guidelines. This model of PFA is not a therapy model nor a substitute for therapy. Rather it is designed to help crisis interventionists stabile and mitigate acute crisis reactions in individuals, as opposed to groups. Guidelines for triage and referrals are also provided. Before plunging into the step-by-step guidelines, a brief history and terminological framework is provided. Lastly, recommendations for addressing specific psychological challenges (suicidal ideation, resistance to seeking professional psychological support, and depression) are provided.

Your heart rate is elevated; you feel overwhelmed. The anxiety you're experiencing will likely increase in the coming hours, days, and months.Medical emergencies disrupt communications and relationships, even in the most stable of families.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " This is the first research-based book to confront workplace issues facing nurses who have disabilities. It not only examines in depth their experiences, roadblocks to successful employment, and misperceptions surrounding them, but also provides viable solutions for creating positive attitudes towards them and a welcoming work environment that fosters hiring and retention. From the perspectives and actual voices of nurses with disabilities, nurse leaders, nurse administrators, and patients, the book identifies nurses with disabilities (including sensory, musculoskeletal, emotional, and mental health issues), discusses why they choose to leave nursing or hide their disabilities, and analyzes how their disabilities may influence career choices.
