Staff Education To Increase Awareness And Readiness Of Clinicians To Use The Clinical Decision Support For Immunization (Cdsi) Tool, Lemlem Erketa Ejo
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Accurate evaluation and forecasting of immunization and ensuring the right vaccines are administered at the right time are essential for the success of immunization programs. Interpreting the clinically written Advisory Committee on Immunization Practice (ACIP) recommendations by individual clinicians is time-consuming and complex, increasing the risk of misinterpretation, inconsistent practice, and inaccurate immunization evaluation and forecasting. Thus, the purpose of this project is to introduce clinicians at the selected project site to an evidence based clinical decision support tool and evaluate participants readiness to utilize the tool. Staff education on the clinical decision support for immunization (CDSi) tool was conducted …
Body Dysmorphia In Post-Weight Loss Surgery Patients, Theresa M. Niles
Body Dysmorphia In Post-Weight Loss Surgery Patients, Theresa M. Niles
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Although there is a known link between weight loss surgery and body dysmorphic disorder, research has not been conducted on the experiences of individuals experiencing these two phenomena. Using a phenomenological approach, this study examined the research question: What are the lived experiences of post-weight loss surgical patients with diagnosed body dysmorphia? Self-discrepancy theory was used as the overarching theoretical framework. Interviews were conducted with ten participants, and the data were analyzed using Quirkos software and inductive coding, examining clusters of themes within the narrative transcripts. Themes emerging included focusing on physical rather than mental health in the post operative …
The Experience Of Help Seeking For African American Pastors In Personal Crises, Jason Leon Hanna
The Experience Of Help Seeking For African American Pastors In Personal Crises, Jason Leon Hanna
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
The U.S. population faces enormous challenges coping with disease, financial stress, failure, and general mental health concerns. Rather than seeking care from psychotherapists, increasing numbers of people in religious communities seek help from clergy, who must then balance the needs of their constituents while navigating their own personal crises and need for support. The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore the meaning of help-seeking for African American clergy during personal crises, guided by Ajzen’s theory of planned behavior. Semistructured interviews were conducted with 20 African American senior pastors of congregations in the United States. Study participants defined help-seeking …
Religious Identity, Sexual Identity, And Internalized Homophobia In Adults Who Have Deidentified From Christianity, Kevin Roum
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Over the past three decades, the percentage of the United States population that identifies as Christian has dropped significantly. At the same time, the level of acceptance of gay, lesbian, and bisexual identities has increased. However, this overall acceptance does not necessarily lead to an acceptance of these identities within specific Christian communities, leading to gay, lesbian, and bisexual individuals having contradictory experiences between their Christian upbringing and secular society. Individuals who no longer identify as Christian after being so raised may experience additional dissonance as their sexuality identity conflicts with the teachings they were raised to believe yet no …

Southern Californian Clinicians’ Perspectives Of Online Treatment For Adolescents With Eating Disorders, Sandra Mcintyre
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Treatment for eating disorders in adolescents is constantly changing and improving. With the recent COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a major transition to telehealth treatment. Studies on the efficacy and experience of telehealth have mainly focused on clients and families, leaving out clinician perspectives. Little research has also been done on how telehealth can be improved on now that it is more commonly used. Lewin’s field theory formed the framework for this qualitative study to explore clinicians’ suggestions to improve telehealth treatment for eating disorders. Ten specialized mental health clinicians provided data collected using two sequenced questionnaires. Analysis of the …
Central Line Associated Bloodstream Infection Prevention In Medical Intensive Care Unit, Linet Angir
Central Line Associated Bloodstream Infection Prevention In Medical Intensive Care Unit, Linet Angir
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
. The doctoral project was a collaborative endeavor focused on central line dressing sites at a state university hospital in the northeastern United States. The aim was to reduce the current central line-associated infections (CLABSIs) rate. Through audits, it was discovered that most central line dressings needed to be completely sealed, some required insertion site clipping to ensure a complete seal, and some dressings were saturated. To uphold a commitment to quality care, clinical excellence, patient care, and superior outcomes, the Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) project recognized the importance of implementing the recommendations to reduce CLABSIs by maintaining central …

Female Runners’ Perspectives Of Coping With Relative Energy Deficiency In Sports (Red-S) Symptoms Through Instructor-Led Yoga, April Rae Gunnoe
Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
Relative energy deficiency in sports (RED-S) impacts the physical, emotional, and psychological health of adult female runners. Previous RED-S inquiry has focused on identification and evaluation of symptoms, and although researchers have investigated ways in which yoga affects adult female runner’s physical and mental health, understanding about the potential impact of instructor-led yoga practice in the treatment and management of RED-S symptoms is limited. The purpose of this basic qualitative inquiry was to investigate the lived experiences of adult female runners practicing instructor-led yoga to cope with RED-S symptoms, using the health belief model as a framework.

Experiences Of Law Enforcement In Workplace Violence Threat Investigations, Heather Folkestad
Experiences Of Law Enforcement In Workplace Violence Threat Investigations, Heather Folkestad

Areas of focus were the collective perspectives of participants regarding the use of threat assessments, inclusion of law enforcement, and the barriers to an effective investigation within the workplace and by community law enforcement. This study utilized …

The purpose of this general qualitative study was to explore what impact harsh penalties involving incarceration had on juvenile justice recidivism in Montgomery County, Maryland. The theoretical framework was the narrative policy framework. Virtual interviews were conducted with 15 participants currently or formerly employed in the Montgomery County, …

Walden Dissertations and Doctoral Studies
This project was a clinical practice guideline (CPG) for nurse practitioners regarding evidence-based guidelines for type 2 diabetes (T2DM) self-care management at a primary care practice in Ohio.
