Health Literacy01:21

Health Literacy

Health literacy is an individual's or a community's capacity to comprehend, receive, read, and use relevant healthcare information and services. The World Health Organization (WHO, 2018) defines health literacy as the cognitive and social skills that determine the ability of individuals to gain access to, understand, and use information in ways that promote and maintain good health. As a result, the WHO helps individuals manage long-term health concerns, participate in preventative programs,...

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention I01:25

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention I

A model is a theoretical way to understand a concept or an idea. Models can overcome barriers to health regardless of diverse economic and cultural backgrounds. In addition, models make the task easier by providing different ways to approach complex issues. There are two major health promotion models: the health belief model and the health promotion model.
The health belief model (HBM) attempts to predict health-related behavior in specific belief patterns. According to the HBM, a person's...

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention II

The person's health status fluctuates continually, varying from being in good health to becoming ill and returning to being healthy. To understand the concept of illness prevention, there are two models. First, the health-illness continuum model is a graphic representation of an individual's wellness. It states that a person is considered healthy in the absence of physical disease and the presence of good emotional health.
The agent-host-environment model states that disease results from...

Levels of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention

Health promotion allows a person to control the determinants of health, resulting in an improved health status. It enhances the quality of life and reduces premature deaths. Health promotion and illness prevention programs help people make beneficial choices to reduce the risk of disease and disabilities. There are three health promotion and illness prevention levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention.
In primary prevention, actions taken before disease onset prevent the disease from...
Integrated Healthcare System01:20

Integrated Healthcare System

An integrated healthcare system (IHS) is a set of organizations that provides for or arranges to provide coordinated and continuous service to a defined population. The IHS takes responsibility for that particular population's health status and outcome, both clinically and fiscally. An integrated healthcare system is a well-organized, well-coordinated, and collaborative network. The integrated delivery system is a network that connects different healthcare providers to deliver organized,...

Area of Science:

  • Health Informatics
  • Knowledge Translation
  • Community Health Systems

Background:

  • Effective knowledge translation is crucial for implementing positive change in healthcare.
  • Health information system (HIS) evaluations generate valuable data that requires dissemination.
  • Practitioners need accessible knowledge derived from HIS evaluations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish a virtual community for knowledge translation in eHealth.
  • To share knowledge from health information system evaluations with practitioners.
  • To outline the foundational elements and strategy of the virtual eHealth Benefits Evaluation Knowledge Translation (KT) Community.

Main Methods:

  • Application of the Knowledge-to-Action Framework.
  • Leveraging the concept of a virtual community.
  • Developing a comprehensive knowledge translation strategy.

Main Results:

  • Establishment of the virtual eHealth Benefits Evaluation Knowledge Translation (KT) Community.
  • Defined foundational elements for the community.
  • Outlined an overall knowledge translation strategy.

Conclusions:

  • A virtual community can facilitate knowledge translation from HIS evaluations.
  • The developed KT strategy supports the dissemination of HIS evaluation findings.
  • Bridging the gap between HIS evaluation knowledge and practice is achievable.
