Community Based Intervention

586
Community-based interventions in mental health represent a paradigm shift from institution-centered care to treatments embedded within the fabric of local communities. By prioritizing inclusion and leveraging existing societal structures, this approach fosters a supportive environment conducive to addressing mental health challenges while promoting individual dignity and agency.

Integrated Healthcare System

2.6K
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,...

Primary care promotes wellness and prevents disease. This care includes health promotion, education, protection (such as immunizations), early disease screening, and environmental considerations. Settings providing this type of healthcare include physician offices, public health clinics, school nursing, and community health nursing.
In 1978, international leaders convened in Alma-Ata, Kazakhstan, for what would be a pivotal event in global health. The Alma-Ata Declaration was the first to call...

Summary

Environmental change threatens human health, but research and policy lack integration. The ecosystem services (ES) approach can bridge this gap, though current frameworks often omit human health dimensions.

Area of Science:

  • Environmental science
  • Public health
  • Ecosystem services research

Background:

  • Environmental change poses significant risks to human health.
  • Poor integration exists between environmental research, policy, and public health practices.
  • The ecosystem services (ES) approach offers a framework for integrating environmental and societal considerations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the extent to which existing ecosystem services (ES) frameworks incorporate human health.
  • To assess the representation of key dimensions, including ecosystem and human health, within ES frameworks.
  • To identify gaps in current ES frameworks regarding environmental change and human health.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted a scoping review of 84 identified ecosystem services (ES) frameworks.
  • Assessed each framework's representation of seven key dimensions, focusing on ecosystem and human health.
  • Analyzed the inclusion of feedback mechanisms between ecosystems and human health.

Main Results:

  • A significant majority of ES frameworks (62%) did not explicitly include human health.
  • Most ES frameworks (75%) failed to represent feedback mechanisms between ecosystems and human health.
  • Some frameworks acknowledge ecosystem drivers of human health, but comprehensive integration is lacking.

Conclusions:

  • Existing ES frameworks are insufficient for fully integrating environmental change and human health.
  • More robust and comprehensive ES frameworks are needed to advance research and policy in this interdisciplinary area.
  • Enhanced integration is crucial for addressing the health impacts of global environmental change.
