Resilience among health professions educators
Exploring interventions for fostering resilience among medical educators
INTRODUCTION: Resilience is essential for medical educators to fulfil their responsibilities. While research often focuses on individual well-being programs, less is known about how resilience is shaped by systemic and institutional interventions, particularly across diverse cultural contexts. This study explores interventions perceived by Hong Kong (HK) medical educators as fostering their resilience. METHODS: an online survey. Twenty medical ed…
Unpacking the perceptions and experiences of student facilitators in interprofessional education
Enhancing health professional students' effective learning and collaborative practice requires a deep understanding of strategies for facilitating interprofessional learning. While faculty members and clinical preceptors are recognized as facilitators in interprofessional education (IPE), there is limited knowledge about the impact of student facilitators' engagement in IPE. Accordingly, this study aims to explore the perceptions and experiences …
Validation of the World Health Organization Well-Being Index (WHO-5) among medical educators in Hong Kong
Our findings extend the validity evidence for the WHO-5 to HK medical educators examined in this study. This enables their well-being to be assessed when evaluating the impact of future well-being programmes
Preventing Obesity in the Military Community (Pomc)
Obesity impacts the U.S. military by affecting the health and readiness of active duty service members and their families. Preventing Obesity in Military Communities (POMC) is a comprehensive research program within Patient Centered Medical Homes (PCMHs) in three Military Training Facilities. This paper describes three pilot randomized controlled trials that target critical high risk periods for unhealthy weight gain from birth to young adulthood…
Timeline Mapping in Qualitative Interviews
Growing interest in visual timeline methods signals a need for critical engagement. Drawing on critical emancipatory epistemologies in our study exploring resilience among marginalized groups, we investigate how the creation of visual timelines informs verbal semistructured interviewing. We consider both how experiences of drawing timelines and how the role of the timeline in interviews varied for South Asian immigrant women who experienced domes…

The Effect of HIV/Aids Disease Progression on Spirituality and Self-Transcendence in a Multicultural Population
This study examined the relationship of sociodemographic and clinical factors with spirituality and self-transcendence in people with HIV/AIDS. It involved 420 HIV/AIDS patients from an HIV clinic who were predominantly Hispanic (79%) and male (82%), with a mean age of 39 years. Subjects completed spirituality, self-transcendence, health status, and depression scales. Medical charts were reviewed to obtain demographics, current therapies, depress…
Underutilization of Antihypertensive Drugs and Associated Hospitalization
The association of underutilization of drugs prescribed for the treatment of hypertension and acute-care hospital readmissions was evaluated. The data base consisted of computerized hospitalization records and computerized out-patient pharmacy records, checked by chart audit for validity. The number of days' supply of antihypertensive agents was estimated by dividing the quantity of drugs dispensed by the daily dose indicated by the prescription …
Impact of a regional infant dispatch center on neonatal mortality
In 1976, a regional Infant Medical Dispatch Center (IMDC) was implemented in Southern California to improve the lives and well-being of the critically ill newborn infants by expediting location of beds in neonatal intensive care units. Comparison of birth weight-specific neonatal mortality rates among 701-2000 grams neonates before and after the program showed a six-fold improvement in hospitals served by the Center over hospitals not served by t…
Mexican-American Folk Belief in a Pediatric Emergency Room
The pattern, extent and patient care implications of medical folk belief in the Mexican-American population utilizing a pediatric emergency room were assessed. The parents of caretakers of 85 randomly selected patients were interviewed in the emergency room waiting area. The extent of knowledge and family history of four traditional folk diseases (magical fright, evil eye, surfeit, and fallen fontanelle) were determined, as was the utitlization o…
