This book was released on 1982-02-01 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepared by the Panel on Outcome Measurement in Early Childhood Demonstration Programs, this report attempts (1) to characterize recent developments in programs and policies for children and families that challenge traditional approaches to evaluation, and (2) to trace the implications of these developments for outcome measurement and for the broader conduct of evaluation studies. The report is divided into two parts. Part I begins by tracing the historical evolution of demonstration programs and their evaluations from 1960 to the mid-1970s. Next, the policy issues and programs that have evolved in recent years and that appear to be salient for the 1980s are examined in detail. Some important implications of these programs and policy developments for outcome measurement and evaluation design are then identified. Finally, implications of the evaluation process for the dissemination and utilization of results, for the organization and conduct of applied research, and for the articulation between applied research and basic social science are pointed out. Part II includes six background papers which were prepared by the panel members together with outside consultants to facilitate the panel's discussion of the evaluation of children's programs. Each paper covers a specific type of program: health, day care, family service, preschool compensatory education programs, and programs for the handicapped. In addition, a paper on the communication and dissemination of the results of evaluations is included. (MP)

Book Handbook of Health  Health Care  and the Health Professions

Download or read book Handbook of Health Health Care and the Health Professions written by David Mechanic and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 840 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: A handbook of health issue essays examines the interdisciplinary requirements of health and health care (prevention and treatment of disease) and provides the reader with insight into the determinants of health and illness. Essay topics are interrelated by the idea that health, disease treatment and rehabilitation of populations occur at biological, psychological and sociocultural levels and involve complex adaptive patterns that epidemiological and clinical studies attempt to describe. Six sections examine: historical and sociocultural dimensions of health and health care; epidemiological studies; health-delivery; health occupations; the health care system from the patient's perspective; and issues and perspectives for approaching health care research. Each of the 34 chapters is written by an expert in his respective area. (kbc).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK • The dramatic story of the Flint water crisis, by a relentless physician who stood up to power. “Stirring . . . [a] blueprint for all those who believe . . . that ‘the world . . . should be full of people raising their voices.’”—The New York Times “Revealing, with the gripping intrigue of a Grisham thriller.” —O: The Oprah Magazine Here is the inspiring story of how Dr. Mona Hanna-Attisha, alongside a team of researchers, parents, friends, and community leaders, discovered that the children of Flint, Michigan, were being exposed to lead in their tap water—and then battled her own government and a brutal backlash to expose that truth to the world. Paced like a scientific thriller, What the Eyes Don’t See reveals how misguided austerity policies, broken democracy, and callous bureaucratic indifference placed an entire city at risk. And at the center of the story is Dr. Mona herself—an immigrant, doctor, scientist, and mother whose family’s activist roots inspired her pursuit of justice. What the Eyes Don’t See is a riveting account of a shameful disaster that became a tale of hope, the story of a city on the ropes that came together to fight for justice, self-determination, and the right to build a better world for their—and all of our—children. Praise for What the Eyes Don’t See “It is one thing to point out a problem. It is another thing altogether to step up and work to fix it. Mona Hanna-Attisha is a true American hero.”—Erin Brockovich “A clarion call to live a life of purpose.”—The Washington Post “Gripping . . . entertaining . . . Her book has power precisely because she takes the events she recounts so personally. . . . Moral outrage present on every page.”—The New York Times Book Review “Personal and emotional. . . She vividly describes the effects of lead poisoning on her young patients. . . . She is at her best when recounting the detective work she undertook after a tip-off about lead levels from a friend. . . . ‛Flint will not be defined by this crisis,’ vows Ms. Hanna-Attisha.”—The Economist “Flint is a public health disaster. But it was Dr. Mona, this caring, tough pediatrican turned detective, who cracked the case.”—Rachel Maddow

Download or read book Genesee Health Plan written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genesee Health Plan (GHP) is a community-based nonprofit that provides primary care and other basic health care services to 27,000 low-income, uninsured adults in Genesee County, Michigan -- one of the most economically challenged areas of the United States. Its annual budget of $24 million is funded through a dedicated local property tax and charitable support, supplemented by some state and federal financing. By increasing access to physician services and supporting patients to adopt healthy behaviors and manage chronic disease, the plan reduced its enrollees' use of emergency department services by 51 percent between 2004 and 2007 and hospital admissions by 15 percent between 2006 and 2007. GHP relies on independent physicians, clinics, and hospitals to provide services to its members and on collaboration among its community stakeholders -- including local government, hospitals, faith-based organizations, universities, and community groups -- to identify gaps in regional coverage and allocate resources accordingly.
