Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women Veterans are the largest growing population Veterans, yet have a significant mental health disparity, greater than both civilian women and Veteran men. This disparity continues in the mental health outpatient treatment options for women Veterans. Veteran Administration (VA) healthcare services may not be suited to their needs as women, and civilian services are not well suited to manage their needs as Veterans. Therefore, this dissertation study used constructivist Grounded Theory methods to explore the experiences of women Veterans when accessing mental health outpatient services, their decision-making process when make the choice to enter mental health service, and aspects of the experience that are important or meaningful to them. Twelve women Veterans revealed meaningful, personal stories on their experiences of trauma and their use of mental health outpatient services. While addressing each of these factors, what emerged from the data was a broader Grounded Theory Process model of how women Veterans process trauma, and the categories of Trauma, Transitions, Identity and Structure. Women Veterans who participated in the study used mental health outpatient services to assist in reestablishing identity after trauma and to propel forward in their lives. This research provides key insight into how women Veterans make healthcare related choices and process traumatic events, like military sexual trauma (MST). This has implications for research, practice, and policy to improve the provision of care for women Veterans.

This book was released on 2017-04-27 with total page 583 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the United States, some populations suffer from far greater disparities in health than others. Those disparities are caused not only by fundamental differences in health status across segments of the population, but also because of inequities in factors that impact health status, so-called determinants of health. Only part of an individual's health status depends on his or her behavior and choice; community-wide problems like poverty, unemployment, poor education, inadequate housing, poor public transportation, interpersonal violence, and decaying neighborhoods also contribute to health inequities, as well as the historic and ongoing interplay of structures, policies, and norms that shape lives. When these factors are not optimal in a community, it does not mean they are intractable: such inequities can be mitigated by social policies that can shape health in powerful ways. Communities in Action: Pathways to Health Equity seeks to delineate the causes of and the solutions to health inequities in the United States. This report focuses on what communities can do to promote health equity, what actions are needed by the many and varied stakeholders that are part of communities or support them, as well as the root causes and structural barriers that need to be overcome.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There have always been homeless people in the United States, but their plight has only recently stirred widespread public reaction and concern. Part of this new recognition stems from the problem's prevalence: the number of homeless individuals, while hard to pin down exactly, is rising. In light of this, Congress asked the Institute of Medicine to find out whether existing health care programs were ignoring the homeless or delivering care to them inefficiently. This book is the report prepared by a committee of experts who examined these problems through visits to city slums and impoverished rural areas, and through an analysis of papers written by leading scholars in the field.
