Primary Healthcare Services

3.3K
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...

Strategies for Assessing and Addressing Confounding

606
Confounding is a critical issue in epidemiological studies, often leading to misleading conclusions about associations between exposures and outcomes. It occurs when the relationship between the exposure and the outcome is mixed with the effects of other factors that influence the outcome. Given that, addressing confounding is of high importance for drawing accurate inferences in research.
Confounding can be addressed at both the design phase of a study and through analytical methods after data...

Global Climate Change

24.4K
Throughout its ~4.5 billion year history, the Earth has experienced periods of warming and cooling. However, the current drastic increase in global temperatures is well outside of the Earth’s cyclic norms, and evidence for human-caused global climate change is compelling. Paleoclimatology, the study of ancient climate conditions, provides ample evidence for human-caused global climate change by comparing recent conditions with those in the past.

Microbes and Climate Change

100
Microorganisms are pivotal agents in Earth's biogeochemical cycles, significantly influencing climate dynamics through their metabolic activities. These microbes modulate the levels of key greenhouse gases by both contributing to and helping mitigate climate change.Microbial Contributions to Greenhouse Gas EmissionsRising global temperatures accelerate microbial metabolism, which, in turn, speeds up the decomposition of organic matter. This process releases carbon dioxide (CO₂) through...

Planning Nursing Care I

5.7K
The planning phase of the nursing process helps nurses set priorities, outline patient-centered goals and expected outcomes, and tailor nursing interventions to align with the aligned care plan. Through the planning phase, the nurse applies critical thinking skills to align and develop interventions according to the patient's needs. It provides continuity of care allowing patients to receive the maximum benefit from treatment. It serves as a pilot plan for allocating individual staff to a...

What is Climate?01:16

What is Climate?

17.5K
Climate refers to the prevailing weather conditions in a specific area over an extended period. As the saying goes, “Climate is what you expect. Weather is what you get.” Climate is influenced by geographic factors, such as latitude, terrain, and proximity to bodies of water.

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Environmental Health
  • Health Systems Science

Background:

  • Climate change presents a significant and escalating threat to global healthcare systems, revealing vulnerabilities in infrastructure, workforce, and governance.
  • Climate risk, a complex interplay of hazard, exposure, and vulnerability, shares similarities with but also differs from other systemic risks healthcare must address.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel risk-based framework for healthcare systems to manage climate change impacts.
  • To integrate disaster risk management principles with health systems thinking to develop effective adaptation strategies.
  • To link climate risk reduction efforts with the broader goals of achieving health equity.

Main Methods:

  • Developing a risk-based framework by synthesizing disaster risk management and health systems thinking.
  • Analyzing upstream determinants of climate risk, including intersectoral environments and socio-environmental vulnerabilities.
  • Examining how established health sector tools can be adapted for climate risk management.

Main Results:

  • The proposed framework facilitates a shift from reactive crisis management to proactive, risk-informed planning within healthcare.
  • Understanding upstream determinants and vulnerabilities is crucial for mitigating amplified health impacts of climate change.
  • Existing tools like strategic investment, workforce planning, and emergency preparedness are adaptable for climate risk management.

Conclusions:

  • Framing climate change as a systemic risk encourages its integration into routine policy and planning.
  • Proactive, risk-informed strategies strengthen healthcare system performance and resilience against climate change.
  • Addressing climate risk is integral to advancing health equity and ensuring robust healthcare delivery.
