Book Manual de Trabajadores de Salud Comunitaria Caminando Juntos

Download or read book Manual de Trabajadores de Salud Comunitaria Caminando Juntos written by and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-03-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este manual está diseñado como un instrumento básico para desarrollar una presentación interactiva de 8 módulos, con una duración de 3 horas cada uno. Se recomienda llevar un curso cada semana o cada dos semanas, según donde se imparta. La presentación está diseñada para poder realizarse de manera virtual o presencial. Cabe mencionar, que cada módulo está diseñado para ser desarrollado por sí solo y la repetición de algunos conceptos que debemos tener claros al final de la clase, es intencional, por ejemplo, la definición de depresión perinatal. Todos los módulos fueron desarrollados minuciosamente por expertos en Pediatría, Ginecología, Salud Mental y los estudios basados en el trabajo comunitario. Asimismo, este manual fue elaborado con la finalidad de satisfacer una necesidad esencial en la comunidad, como es el abordaje integral de la depresión perinatal. Durante un año el CHWCMR investigó todos los estudios encaminados a apoyar a la depresión perinatal y se encontró que los abordajes se enfocaban solamente a la madre y no adaptado a la inclusión del padre y la comunidad LGTB. Aunque muchos proyectos en la nación brindan algunos de los recursos que proponemos, los modelos se enfocan en subvenciones y la mayoría termina por falta de soporte económico. Este manual incorpora todos los elementos necesarios para reconocer, referir y apoyar a las personas que viven la depresión perinatal en su viaje de vida, de tal manera que puedan recibir la atención de salud, física, mental y social que necesitan con personas que también ya tomaron ese viaje. Las CHW que sufrieron depresión perinatal, ahora están en las condiciones de ayudar a otros para que puedan tener un embarazo lo más normal o saludable que se pueda, usando un modelo de integración del equipo de salud y la comunidad, donde el factor esencial es la persona que vive con depresión perinatal. Caminado Juntos es un proyecto desarrollado por la Dra. Ponce-González, con el apoyo de 8 profesionales de la salud que poseen una gran experiencia en investigación basada en evidencia de neonatología, ginecología y salud mental y dos CHW, quienes son madres refugiadas que sufrieron depresión perinatal y viven en los EEUU. Este manual es único desde el momento de su desarrollo, porque cuenta con el conocimiento y experiencia de personas que vivieron o viven con depresión perinatal y del personal de atención médica. Muchos médicos y personal de salud, al igual que algunas organizaciones han mitificado que la tristeza durante el embarazo es normal. Sin embargo, eso es un mito, porque la depresión perinatal es una enfermedad del cerebro que afecta la relación de pareja en la crianza de los hijos, que puede tener resultados dañinos tanto para los padres, como para los hijos. Seamos culturalmente humildes, escuchemos y apoyemos a las personas que viven con depresión perinatal a encontrar la ayuda que necesitan, con los recursos que contamos y con un manual que no es rígido, sino flexible que puede adaptarse a tu realidad.

Download or read book Believing Is Seeing written by Michael Guillen, PhD and published by Tyndale House Publishers, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is your worldview enlightened enough to accommodate both science and God at the same time? Dr. Michael Guillen, a best-selling author, Emmy award–winning journalist and former physics instructor at Harvard, used to be an Atheist—until science changed his mind. Once of the opinion that people of faith are weak, small-minded folks who just don’t understand science, Dr. Guillen ultimately concluded that not only does science itself depend on faith, but faith is actually the mightiest power in the universe. In Believing Is Seeing, Dr. Guillen recounts the fascinating story of his journey from Atheism to Christianity, citing the latest discoveries in neuroscience, physics, astronomy, and mathematics to pull back the curtain on the mystery of faith as no one ever has. Is it true that “seeing is believing?” Or is it possible that reality can be perceived most clearly with the eyes of faith—and that truth is bigger than proof? Let Dr. Guillen be your guide as he brilliantly argues for a large and enlightened worldview consistent with both God and modern science.

Book The End of Life as We Know It

Download or read book The End of Life as We Know It written by Michael Guillen and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-10-16 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It's happening this second. Scientists are re-imagining and re-engineering the world forever. With brutal honesty and engaging story-telling, Michael Guillen gives us a clear-eyed look at a future that is already here. Consider this unsettling, brilliantly written, must-read book your official wake up call." -- ERIC METAXAS, #1 national bestselling author of Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy "Michael Guillen has tackled an important subject in The End of Life as We Know It... This book is a sobering look at where we could be headed. A fascinating read." -- DAVID LIMBAUGH, bestselling author of Jesus is Risen and The True Jesus In all aspects of life, humans are crossing lines of no return. Modern science is leading us into vast uncharted territory—far beyond the invention of nuclear weapons or taking us to the moon.Today, in labs all over the world, scientists are performing experiments that threaten to fundamentally alter the practical character and ethical color of our everyday lives. In The End of Life as We Know It: Ominous News from the Frontiers of Science, bestselling author and Emmy award winning science journalist Michael Guillen takes a penetrating look at how the scientific community is pushing the boundaries of morality, including: • Scientists who detached the head of a Russian man from his crippled, diseased body, and stitching it onto a healthy new donated body. • Fertility experiments aimed at allowing designer babies to be conceived with the DNA from three or more biological parents. • The unprecedented politicization of science – for example, in the global discussion about climate change that is pitting “deniers” against “alarmists” and inspiring Draconian legislation, censorship, and legal prosecutions. • The integration of Artificial Intelligence into communications and the economy. The End of Life as We Know Ittakes us into labratories and boardrooms where these troubling advances are taking place and asks the question no scientists seem to be asking: What does this mean for the future of humanity? PREVIOUS PRAISE FOR MICHAEL GUILLEN: “Guillen succeeds triumphantly…He writes with extraordinary grace and clarity.” — CHRISTOPHER LEHMANN-HAUPT, The New York Times “Guillen knows how to tell a story.” — Wall Street Journal “Michael Guillen is ‘Winsomely brilliant.’” — ERIC METAXAS, #1 national bestselling author of Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy “Michael Guillen bridges the seeming gap between science and faith better than anyone I know.” — CAL THOMAS, Syndicated and USA Today columnist/Fox News contributor

Book Can a Smart Person Believe in God

Download or read book Can a Smart Person Believe in God written by Michael Guillen and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2006-09-03 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As Christians, we are often urged to turn away from scientific discovery and rely solely on the Bible as the source of our faith. On the other hand, many people in areas such as science, law, and education insist that Christian faith is lowbrow or unintelligent. But is it possible to reconcile science with what you believe about God? As someone who has grappled with the issues of science and faith in the public eye for more than a decade as a television journalist, Dr. Michael Guillen believes it is possible. In fact, by embracing the discoveries of science we can see God, the universe, and humanity in full, multidimensional glory. Fortunately, you don't have to be a genius to enjoy this book. The bite-sized chapters are full of fascinating scientific tidbits in an easy-to-understand format. Captivating stories of the author's childhood in the Mexican barrio of East L.A. and his work in television and research are woven throughout. There is even an entertaining SQ (Spiritual Quotient) test for readers to take.

Download or read book Amazing Truths written by Michael Guillen and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2016-02-09 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Does science discredit the Bible, God, religious faith? Absolutely not, says Dr. Michael Guillen, former Harvard physics instructor and Emmy-winning ABC News Science Editor. In Amazing Truths, he uses his entertaining, down-to-earth storytelling skills to reveal ten astonishing truths affirmed by both ancient Scripture and modern science that answer some of our biggest questions: Can faith really move mountains? Does absolute truth exist? Are humans truly unique? Is it possible to communicate with God? How much about the universe do we actually know? How could Jesus have been fully man and fully God? In Amazing Truths, Dr. Guillen explains that faith is not some outdated way of thinking. Faith is a necessary part of science, Christianity, and any intelligent, comprehensive, coherent worldview--vastly more powerful than even logic. Amazing Truths will expand your mind and bolster your faith. You will see for yourself what Dr. Guillen, a theoretical physicist and devout Christian, has discovered in a lifetime of serious exploration--that science and faith are not at odds. In fact, they're the ultimate power couple.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Publishers Weekly best book of 1995! Dr. Michael Guillen, known to millions as the science editor of ABC's Good Morning America, tells the fascinating stories behind five mathematical equations. As a regular contributor to daytime's most popular morning news show and an instructor at Harvard University, Dr. Michael Guillen has earned the respect of millions as a clear and entertaining guide to the exhilarating world of science and mathematics. Now Dr. Guillen unravels the equations that have led to the inventions and events that characterize the modern world, one of which -- Albert Einstein's famous energy equation, E=mc2 -- enabled the creation of the nuclear bomb.

Book Overcoming Autism

Download or read book Overcoming Autism written by Lynn Kern Koegel, Ph.D. and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There have been huge advances in our ability to diagnose autism and in the development of effective interventions that can change children’s lives. In this extraordinary book, Lynn Kern Koegel, a leading clinician, researcher, and cofounder of the renowned Autism Research Center at the University of California at Santa Barbara, combines her cutting-edge expertise with the everyday perspectives of Claire LaZebnik, a writer whose experience with a son with autism provides a rare window into the disorder. Together, they draw on the highly effective “pivotal response” approach developed at the center to provide concrete ways of improving the symptoms of autism and the emotional struggles that surround it, while reminding readers never to lose sight of the humor that lurks in the disability’s quirkiness or the importance of enjoying your child. From the shock of diagnosis to the step-by-step work with verbal communication, social interaction, self-stimulation, meltdowns, fears, and more, the answers are here-in a book that is as warm and nurturing as it is authoritative.
