Primary Healthcare Services

1.9K
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...

Levels of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention01:26

Levels of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention

14.1K
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...

Principles of Disease Surveillance01:26

Principles of Disease Surveillance

439
Disease surveillance is the systematic collection, analysis, and interpretation of health data essential to the planning, implementation, and evaluation of public health practice. This process integrates data dissemination to entities responsible for preventing and controlling disease, injury, and disability. Surveillance systems provide crucial information for action, helping public health authorities make informed decisions to manage and prevent outbreaks, ensure public safety, optimize...

Methods Of Healthcare Delivery System

3.9K
At the different levels of the healthcare system, we see varying methods of healthcare used. These methods include managed care systems, case management, and primary healthcare.
Managed Care System:
The managed care system is designed to control the cost while maintaining the quality of care. The patient's care from admission to discharge is planned by the primary care provider or the case manager, also known as the gatekeeper. In a managed care system, the number of care providers is...

Area of Science:

  • Genomics research
  • Alzheimer's disease (AD) research
  • Population genetics

Background:

  • The DAWN study aims to create a substantial genomics resource for Alzheimer's disease (AD) research.
  • It focuses on recruiting individuals of African (Af) and Hispanic/Latino (H/L) ancestry from the US and Africa.
  • Clinical Research Coordinators (CRCs) are essential for achieving study goals and ensuring participant satisfaction and trust.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the critical role of CRCs in the DAWN study.
  • To identify challenges and successful strategies for participant recruitment and retention in diverse populations.
  • To emphasize the importance of investing in CRC development for research success.

Main Methods:

  • A team science approach was used for recruiting African American (AA) and Hispanic/Latino (H/L) participants across multiple US sites.
  • Outreach and Recruitment (OR) core teams and site managers led clinical training.
  • Regular virtual and in-person meetings facilitated bidirectional learning, professional development, and strategy sharing among CRCs.

Main Results:

  • Nineteen CRCs of AA and HI descent, representative of the study population, were involved.
  • DAWN CRCs successfully met enrollment goals for AA and HI participants within the first two years.
  • CRCs identified 26 impediments and 14 retention strategies, with community trust, CRC safety, and resources being key.

Conclusions:

  • Multi-site initiatives require ongoing identification of roles, impediments, and strategies for participant recruitment and retention.
  • Valuing and investing in the professional development of CRCs are crucial for recruitment success and employee retention in genomics research.
  • Listening to CRCs' experiences is vital for improving recruitment and retention efforts in diverse populations.
