Survey Safety01:28

Survey Safety

210
Surveying near highways, rough terrain, or power lines involves significant risks. Working along highways is particularly dangerous and requires the use of warning signs and flagmen. It is safest to avoid working directly on roads and use offsets whenever possible. When highway work is unavoidable, it must follow all safety guidelines. Surveyors should wear bright clothing, such as orange reflective vests, to ensure visibility to motorists, coworkers, and hunters. In construction zones, wearing...

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention I

2.3K
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...

Levels of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention

13.7K
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...

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention II

1.8K
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...

PPE Use in Healthcare Settings I: Donning

1.3K
Donning PPE must be completed before contact with the patient. This process protects from infectious agents. The sequence and action included in each donning are critical, and the steps must be systematic to avoid exposure to pathogens. The institutional policy also needs to be followed while donning PPE. The pre-donning preparations are gathering equipment, inspecting the PPE equipment for tears, holes, or damage, removing jewelry, removing any garments below the elbows, and tying the hair...

Personal Protective Equipment01:20

Personal Protective Equipment

1.9K
Personal protective equipment (PPE) is unique clothing or equipment worn by an employee to minimize or prevent exposure to infectious agents. PPE creates a barrier between the employee and the infectious materials. PPE must be readily available in the patient care area. PPE includes gloves, gowns and aprons, masks and respirators, goggles, face shields, shoes, and headcovers:

Area of Science:

  • Social Sciences
  • Public Health
  • Qualitative Research Methods

Background:

  • The photovoice method, introduced in 1997, is widely adopted across various fields like public health and social development.
  • Its application has expanded, necessitating a structured overview of its current designs and uses, particularly within the health and safety domain.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an overview of current photovoice designs and applications in the health and safety sector.
  • To develop a classification system for photovoice by identifying generic designs and objectives.
  • To explore the potential of photovoice in safety management.

Main Methods:

  • A scoping review was employed to examine existing literature on photovoice.
  • Analysis focused on identifying process steps, objectives, and application examples within the health and safety domain.
  • Photovoice designs were categorized based on their underlying objectives.

Main Results:

  • Photovoice designs are constructed from combinations of eleven distinct process steps.
  • Five generic objectives underpin the diverse applications of photovoice: communication, education, exploration, awareness, and empowerment.
  • Numerous safety-related applications demonstrate the method's relevance in safety management.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed five generic photovoice designs offer a framework for a classification system.
  • These generic designs can simplify the implementation and utilization of photovoice as a research tool.
