Addressing The Needs Of Direct Care Staff When Affected By Natural Disasters Globally, Lynn M. Hood, Marie O. Etienne, Patricia R. Messmer, Nahomie Mirville, Marjorie Lozama, Guerna Blot, Amina Dubuisson

International Nursing Research Congress (INRC)

Session presented on Friday, July 22, 2016:

Background: A competent workforce committed to providing patient-centered care is vital since retention and turnover rates of direct care staff in skilled nursing facilities are directly related to quality of patient care (Austrom et al, 2015). Turnover and retention rates can become extremely challenged when a workforce is in crisis. Following the 2010 devastating earthquake in Haiti, 31 skilled nursing facilities in Florida and Georgia actively engaged in providing support to Haitian employees and their families both in USA and Haiti. Administrators, leaders and line staff participated in the support and relief efforts …

Appropriate Gestational Weight Gain, Eugelyn Opalec Santos

Doctor of Nursing Practice Final Manuscripts

Abstract

Over the past 30 years, excessive weight gain during pregnancy among American women has been a significant concern, resulting in serious health consequences to mothers and their newborns. During 2011, 48% of U.S. women gained more than the ideal amount of weight during pregnancy. Several international studies have also documented that excessive weight gain during pregnancy is associated with adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes. As a result, one in ten babies were born prematurely in the United States in 2014. Based on the Institute of Medicine's (IOM) guidelines (2009), the purpose of this project was to implement the Healthy …

Cintya, Seher Chowhan

be Still

This is a painting of a girl names Cintya from Huancayo, Peru. I went to Peru on a medical mission trip with the Foundation for the International Medical Relief of Children in 2012. Cintya was in an orphanage called Rosario that houses victims of sexual abuse. Another girl at the orphanage had gone around the orphanage taking pictures and this painting depicts one on those pictures. I’m not sure what it is about the photo, but I just love the expression on her face and she has a natural, relaxed happiness that can only come from a close friend taking …

Female First year medical students celebrate Black History month on the osteopathic campus of NSU as the backdrop. Inspired by Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper, I wanted to give this picture a strong perspective that would provide a solid foundation to the African American female students who would one day be future doctors of this country. I tried to contrast the man-made pillars on the left that appear to be steady but are temporary while on the right there is nature, often considered a female form, highlighted by branches of the tree; uncertain yet permanent.

In the center, first year medical student, Rachel Salveson (pictured) is willing to accept these challenges with commitment reflected by her calm and steady posture.

This picture was taken in a local school in Gujarat, India. These happy girls, who shied away from the camera, walk miles every day to attend their school that does not have a roof. This picture represents their commitment to a better future and my commitment to the people of the country of my birth as I continue my training.

The Ebola Crisis: A Communicative Response From Samaritan's Purse, Bailie Porter

Masters Theses

Crisis does not discriminate. It can strike without warning, at any time or place. Managers, organizations, and leaders alike, must be ready at all times to respond to them, whether they are planned for or not. An efficient and quick response is especially necessary when health crises or natural disasters strike, because human life may be at stake. Crisis communication has become more and more important in a world that is daily filled with catastrophes. This study uses W. Timothy Coomb’s situational crisis communication theory as a lens to view the Ebola crisis. The purpose of the research is to …

Gospel Encounter With Subaltern India , Stanish Stanley

Doctor of Philosophy Dissertation

This work examines the role of religio-cultural resources in enabling the transformation of a broken community and people.

In the context of nineteenth and twentieth century British India, an oppressed community in India set out to explore the possibility of challenging and re-defining their own destiny. This oppressed section of Indians who lived in the margins of Indian caste defined society were considered socially and ritually polluting people and were subservient to various socio-economic and religio-cultural biases. The daily life routine of this oppressed community, called the Sambavars (Pariahs) of the Malayalam speaking princely State of Travancore in South India, …
