Including students with autism in schools
In the last two decades there has been a rapid increase in the number of students with autism who are enrolled in mainstream schools. Since the publication of the Salamanca Statement in 1994, the right to inclusive education for all children, including those with disabilities, has been increasingly recognised. This has created tensions and challenges in schools as staff struggle to meet the unique needs of these students and their families. Previ…
Implementing the school-wide autism competency model to improve outcomes for students on the autism spectrum
The rising number of students in schools identified as being on the autism spectrum has placed pressure on school leaders and staff to gain knowledge and take on new practice. A school-wide autism competency (SAC) approach utilises the research on elements of effective practice to build the capacity of school leaders and staff to create inclusive school cultures, implement evidence-based strategies, and improve outcomes for students on the autism…
A review of research into stakeholder perspectives on inclusion of students with autism in mainstream schools
Increasing numbers of students with autism are being educated in mainstream schools. However, outcomes for students with autism are poor when compared to typical students and students with other developmental disabilities. In order to better understand facilitators and barriers to success at school for students with autism, research into the attitudes of key stakeholders, educators, parents, people with autism, to inclusion in mainstream schools …
Case management community care for people living with HIV/Aids (PLHAs)
A case management approach to support services was developed in a Toronto-based AIDS service organization (ASO) in Canada to support people living with HIV/AIDS (PLHAs) whose needs could not be addressed through usual self-directed access to services. It was therefore important to determine which PLHAs would benefit most from case management. New clients and those who had been receiving support services from an ASO were randomized to receive eith…
The cost of poor adjustment to chronic illness
This paper summarizes information about expenditures for people with chronic illness as a function of their psychosocial adjustment to illness. Three studies are discussed: two prospective baseline surveys and one historic cohort analytic study. Each was conducted between 1988 and 1993 in Southern Ontario, Canada in tertiary centres which were treating patients recently referred to a specialty medical clinic for one of 13 types of chronic physica…
Interactional styles of out-patients with poor adjustment to chronic illness receiving problem-solving counselling
A sample of subjects with poor to fair adjustment to chronic illness is described according to three interactional styles distinguished by patterns of beliefs about the self in relation to others along an axis of purpose, dependency and self-concept. Further, the question of whether differences in style are related to quantitative measures of adjustment, purpose in life, and health and social service consumption is addressed. A randomized control…
Community-Based, Culturally Sensitive HIV/Aids Education for Aboriginal Adolescents
Research is an essential component of effective, evidence-based nursing practice. Limited scientific data have been published on Canadian Aboriginals, and even less information is available on HIV prevention efforts aimed at Aboriginal youth. The need for more research on HIV and AIDS among Aboriginals, and especially Aboriginal youth, is highlighted throughout the article as a means to improving prevention interventions for this vulnerable popul…
Effective/efficient mental health programs for school-age children
Conceptualizing and validating the human services integration measure
We recommend the combined use of the proposed measure and the Weiss (2001) measure to more completely capture the scope and depth of integration efforts as well as the nature of the functioning of a service program or network
Quality of Life of Individuals With Heart Failure
BACKGROUND: The growing number of patients with congestive heart failure has increased both the pressure on hospital resources and the need for community management of the condition. Improving hospital-to-home transition for this population is a logical step in responding to current practice guidelines' recommendations for coordination and education. Positive outcomes have been reported from trials evaluating multiple interventions, enhanced hosp…

Pilot study of a visitor volunteer programme for community elderly people receiving home health care
There is a need to evaluate community support programmes for elderly people. In this randomized control trial (RCT), we determined the effectiveness of 'friendly visitors' in a volunteer programme of a visiting nurses organization in Southern Ontario, Canada. The Volunteer Friendly Visitor Programme was developed to support elderly people receiving homemaking and nursing care in the community. Volunteers are screened, trained, interviewed and mat…
The Efficacy and Effectiveness of Process Consultation in Improving Staff Morale and Absenteeism
OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this randomized controlled trial was to test the efficacy and effectiveness of process consultation consisting of a series of nurse manager-consultant problem-solving meetings for leadership development that would lead to their staff's improved morale, quality of care, and reduced absenteeism. METHODS: Thirteen consenting clinical inpatient units were stratified for four variables known to affect outcome and were then r…

The Effectiveness and Efficiency of Health Promotion in Specialty Clinic Care
Chronic illnesses make up the majority of health problems in North America. Many chronically ill persons adjust over time to their illnesses; however, there remains a small but important group of those less adjusted, who are concentrated in specialty clinics and are high users of health care resources. This randomized clinical trial investigated the impact of health promotion interventions in the form of problem-solving counseling or phone suppor…
