“Nope. Don’T Like That.” In Search Of Justice And Commitment To Nonmaleficence In Dance/Movement Therapy, Johnee Border
“Nope. Don’T Like That.” In Search Of Justice And Commitment To Nonmaleficence In Dance/Movement Therapy, Johnee Border
Dance/Movement Therapy Theses
The American Dance Therapy Association (ADTA) and Dance/Movement Therapy Certification Board (DMTCB) have ensured those dance/movement therapists who have been educated, registered, and board-certified share a commitment to equity, justice, and nonmaleficence according to the ADTA and DMTCB’s Code of Ethics and Standards (The Code) (ADTA, 2015). “Nope. Don’t like that,” has been the actual, verbal, expression of the embodied experience of intersectional harm from a lack of assessed, decolonized dance/movement therapy practice and pedagogy. The ADTA, students, educators, and credentialed dance/movement therapists hold an established, ethical responsibility to justice and nonmaleficence, and as such, must demonstrate a commitment to …
Attitudes And Actions Of Genetic Counseling Program Directors Regarding Standards For Accreditation Of Genetic Counseling Training Programs, Ben Newsum
Human Genetics Theses
Academic accreditation is a common feature of higher education, with a moderate body of literature. Previous studies largely focus on factors that are crucial to the implementation or acceptance of standards. This study explored how education standards of genetic counseling are perceived and interacted with by program directors. We performed semi-structured interviews with current program directors, assistant directors, and associate directors to gain insight into their perspectives on current accreditation standards and the standards’ revision process. Interview transcripts were analyzed via thematic analysis to identify common themes related to program directors’ perceptions of the standards and accreditation as a whole. …
Genetic Counseling Around The Globe: Prenatal Screening Practices During The First Trimester, Anna Bauer, Dhart Adhia, Rachel K. Lanning, Jenny G. Zhang
Genetic Counseling Around The Globe: Prenatal Screening Practices During The First Trimester, Anna Bauer, Dhart Adhia, Rachel K. Lanning, Jenny G. Zhang
Human Genetics Theses
The global state of prenatal screening during the first trimester of pregnancy by genetics professionals has not yet been extensively studied. The current study explored whether carrier screening, biochemical marker screening, ultrasounds with nuchal translucency measurements, and non-invasive prenatal screening (NIPS) were offered as standard of care. It also examined whether the presence of established practice guidelines impacted their decision to offer testing as standard of care and screening reimbursement methods. Prenatal genetics providers, primarily genetic counselors, from 11 countries spanning 4 continents, were surveyed about the screening tests offered to the patients. Of the first trimester screening tests, NIPS …
The Impact Of A Lynch Syndrome Diagnosis By Population Genomic Screening On Family Communication, Medical Management, And Lifestyle Changes, Reem Ibrahim Bux, Brooke Nicole Delehoy
The Impact Of A Lynch Syndrome Diagnosis By Population Genomic Screening On Family Communication, Medical Management, And Lifestyle Changes, Reem Ibrahim Bux, Brooke Nicole Delehoy
Human Genetics Theses
The purpose of population genomic screening programs is to help in prevention and treatment of conditions that takes into account an individual’s unique genetics, environmental, and lifestyle factors. Through this “genome-first” approach, individuals at increased lifetime risk for certain conditions are identified, allowing them and their relatives to qualify for preventative medical care and surveillance (Schwartz et al., 2018). An example institution that utilizes this approach is Geisinger’s MyCode Community Initiative, where their goal is to “make healthcare better” through research and its application to patient care (MyCode Community Health Initiative, n.d.). MyCode reports back medically actionable results for conditions …
Utilization And Perceived Value Of Genetic Counselors Within U.S. Hemophilia Treatment Centers, Caylynn Carls
Utilization And Perceived Value Of Genetic Counselors Within U.S. Hemophilia Treatment Centers, Caylynn Carls
Human Genetics Theses
Rapid advancement of molecular genetics has transformed the diagnosis, treatment, and management of individuals with hereditary bleeding disorders. To provide effective, up-to-date genetic counseling, navigate the complexity of these conditions, and select appropriate molecular testing, genetics expertise is required. This study assessed the provision of genetic counseling services, the involvement of genetic counselors (GCs), and the perceived value of GCs within hemophilia treatment centers (HTCs) in the United States. A survey was emailed to 396 HTC providers. 115 responses were received, representing 68 of 149 U.S. HTCs (45.6% HTC participation rate). Responses were stratified by level of GC engagement. Although …
Dance/Movement Therapy And A Search For Wholeness Under Capitalism, Autumn Wright
Dance/Movement Therapy And A Search For Wholeness Under Capitalism, Autumn Wright
Dance/Movement Therapy Theses
Wellness, as it is currently defined in late capitalism, is a luxury good for the ruling class. Capitalism and the commodification of wellness go largely unaddressed in current dance/movement therapy research. In the United States, dance/movement therapists operate within the for-profit healthcare system. The United States is the only industrialized democracy in the world without a national health insurance program. Despite the access to state licensure for the past 20 years, dance/movement therapists still have no guarantee that health insurance companies will pay for their services. Concurrently, there has been a surgency of self-proclaimed wellness coaches. These …
