An Intergenerational Functional Hand Training Program for Older Adults
We recently demonstrated the feasibility of delivering functional hand training using an intergenerational model. The purpose of this study was to describe the updated methodology for Hands and Health at Home. Pre-health students were trained to deliver 8 weeks of functional hand training to local Meals on Wheels clients. Clients completed standardized measures of hand function before and after the program and both groups completed surveys which …
We are left alone”
The aging population in the South Asian region is rapidly growing, prompting a rising need to understand the subjective mental wellbeing of older adults. Aging and life satisfaction are complex processes that are experienced differently in various sociocultural contexts. However, few studies have investigated mechanisms of life satisfaction in rural environments in low- and middle-income countries that face challenges that cannot be measured by e…
Use of a Novel Theory-Based Pragmatic Tool to Evaluate the Quality of Instructor-Led Exercise Videos to Promote Youth Physical Activity at Home
Understanding the use of a pragmatic tool is a first step in the evaluation of InPACT at Home exercise videos. Our preliminary findings suggest that the InPACT at Home videos had low cognitive load. If future research confirms our findings, using a more rigorous study design, then developing a collection of instructor-led exercise videos that induce low cognitive load may help to enhance youth physical activity participation in the home environme…
A Novel Policy Alignment and Enhancement Process to Improve Sustainment of School-Based Physical Activity Programming
The purpose of the current study was twofold: (1) to evaluate the strength and comprehensiveness of district wellness policies in one central Michigan intermediate school district (ISD; 16 districts), and (2) to pilot a novel policy alignment and enhancement process in one district within the ISD to improve sustainment of district-wide physical activity (PA) programming. Policy evaluation and alignment were determined using WellSAT 3.0. The Explo…

Physical Activity among Navajo Cancer Survivors
Physical activity (PA) may improve quality of life and survival among cancer survivors; however, little is known about Navajo cancer survivor PA. We evaluated Navajo cancer survivor PA habits, barriers, and preferences through focus groups and interviews (n = 32). Transcripts were coded in NVivo and major themes summarized by consensus. Survivor exercise guidelines were largely unknown, but movement, resilience and life balance were valued. Most …
The United States Does Cair About Cultural Safety
Purpose: This article examines the concept and use of the term cultural safety in Canada and the United States. Design: To examine the uptake of cultural awareness, cultural sensitivity, cultural competence, and cultural safety between health organizations in Canada and the United States, we reviewed position statements/policies of health care associations. Findings: The majority of selected health associations in Canada include cultural safety w…

Cancer Symptom Control
This study evaluated the feasibility of an innovative computerized symptom assessment tool, SymptomReport, and a computerized, tailored education tool, SymptomConsult, in a sample of 41 outpatients with cancer. After patients completed the computerized programs, an audiotaped telephone interview was conducted to assess patients' impressions. The study found that patients required less than 40 minutes on average to complete SymptomReport. The mean…
