Download or read book Community Based Programs and Policies written by Howard A. Palley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-02 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection is focused on the provision of community-based programs and activities in health and related long-term care services that have contributed, or may in the future contribute, to social policy development. Several of the articles in this collection deal with community-based health and long-term care program and policy initiatives that have been facilitated through federal programs such as Medicare, Medicaid and the Older Americans Act. The implementation of some of these community-based programs have significantly influenced social policy thinking regarding the beneficial effects of integrating medical and social aspects of health and long-term care services, as well as the health care team approach to the delivery of health and long-term care services. Another dimension addressed is the impact of interest groups, such as family caregivers, in advancing social policy that supports the efforts of community-based family care givers in providing services to patients in need. The underlying theme is how such local community programs have contributed in a variety of ways to the development of social policies at the community level that in many ways focus on the integration of health and related long-term care services and a health care team approach to the provision of such services. The book will be of interest to community development courses in Schools of Social Work and other health professions such as Nursing and Public Health. It will also be of interest to health policy programs in public administration and other social sciences. This book was published as a special issue of Social Work in Public Health.

Download or read book L organisation communautaire en CSSS written by Denis Bourque and published by PUQ. This book was released on 2011-03-14T00:00:00-04:00 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Destiné aux intervenants qui œuvrent en organisation communautaire, aux gestionnaires et aux planificateurs qui s’y intéressent, ainsi qu’aux étudiants et futurs praticiens en ce domaine, cet ouvrage relève et analyse le contexte sociopolitique et les transformations institutionnelles qui influencent la pratique d’organisation communautaire en CSSS. Il identifie des occasions réelles sur lesquelles capitaliser dans le cadre des pratiques réflexives des organisateurs communautaires (OC) et fournit des outils aussi bien en termes d’analyse des contraintes que d’exploration des avenues de relance d’une pratique professionnelle qui manifeste une expertise et une maturité certaines. Pratique professionnelle de soutien à l’action communautaire et d’interface entre les collectivités et les services publics pour en améliorer la pertinence, la reconnaissance de l’organisation communautaire représente un gain des mouvements sociaux. Elle est aujourd’hui placée devant le défi de renouveler cette lutte pour que les citoyens retrouvent leur place dans les CSSS et dans bon nombre d’organismes communautaires et d’instances de concertation et de développement local où la professionnalisation domine. Il n’y a pas de développement durable des communautés sans participation et appropriation citoyenne des enjeux.
Download or read book Pratiques d organisation communautaire en CSSS written by RQIIAC and published by PUQ. This book was released on 2011-06-20T00:00:00-04:00 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Avec la création des centres de santé et de services sociaux (CSSS) en 2004 et les transformations des communautés locales au cours de la dernière décennie, il était impératif pour le Regroupement québécois des intervenantes et intervenants en action communautaire en CSSS (RQIIAC) de réviser son cadre de référence publié en 2003. Adopté en mars 2010 à la suite d’une consultation menée dans diverses régions du Québec, le nouveau texte campe l’ensemble des dimensions essentielles de la pratique des organisatrices et organisateurs communautaires dans les CSSS. Il s’accompagne d’un cadre de pratique qui traite de l’organisation du travail, de son encadrement et de son soutien, ainsi que de quatorze récits de pratique qui illustrent concrètement les concepts qu’il avance. Destiné avant tout à celles et ceux qui exercent la profession, mais aussi à celles et ceux qui s’y préparent, de même qu’aux cadres des CSSS, l’ouvrage fait une mise à jour des acquis de près de quarante années d’exercice de l’organisation communautaire dans le réseau public québécois de la santé et des services sociaux. Il est aussi, à sa façon, un manifeste qui vise à consolider une pratique de changement social au sein du réseau public et à faire progresser les idéaux qui l’animent.
Download or read book Remaining Loyal written by David McGrane and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2014-10-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When social democratic politicians in the 1990s moderated their ideas and policies as part of a turn towards the "third way," they were assailed as traitors to the cause. Remaining Loyal demonstrates that while third way social democrats in Quebec and Saskatchewan supplemented certain social democratic ideas with more right-wing economic programs, their public policies remained true to the original spirit of social democracy. Drawing on a range of archival resources, David McGrane traces the evolution of social democracy in Quebec and Saskatchewan from their respective origins in social Catholic thought and agrarian protest movements at the turn of the twentieth century to the most recent Parti Québécois and New Democratic Party governments. In doing so, he reconstructs the public policies of traditional social democracy from the postwar era and the third way in the 1990s and early 2000s and finds both differences and continuities. McGrane contends that remaining loyal to core social democratic values is exactly what differentiates the third way from neo-liberalism in Saskatchewan and Quebec. The first historical comparison of social democracy in Saskatchewan and Quebec, Remaining Loyal challenges how we think about the recent ideological evolution of left-wing parties in Canada and the rest of the world.

This book was released on 2020-11-04T00:00:00-05:00 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Riche de son histoire, la pratique d’organisation communautaire dans le réseau de la santé et des services sociaux public québécois existe depuis maintenant près de 50 ans. En intervenant en amont des problèmes de santé, les organisateurs communautaires (OC) apportent une contribution singulière aux établissements de santé et de services sociaux. Enracinés dans un ou des territoires d’appartenance, ils sont à même de développer une lecture fine des communautés, ce qui permet d’intervenir de façon plus adaptée en réponse aux besoins constatés. Ce cadre de référence fait une mise à jour de plusieurs années de pratique d’organisation communautaire dans le réseau de la santé et des services sociaux. Destiné avant tout aux personnes qui exercent la profession, mais aussi à celles qui s’y préparent, cet ouvrage se veut un levier pour le développement professionnel et la valorisation de la pratique.
