Contribute to student development and readiness for learning Health and safety promotion Actual and potential problem intervention Chronic healthcare management Collaborate with school professionals Help families to access, coordinate, and manage healthcare for their child

School Nurse Role

Health information is kept private unless explicit written permission for its disclosure is given

Enables parents to get access to child's educational and health records Enables dissemination of student health information with educational staff on a "need to know" basis

Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)

School nurse record containing demographic information, parent's contact information, anthropomorphic info, medication info

Cumulative Health Record

School nurse records of visits, medication, treatments, record of day-to-day visits

Notes

Same thing as a care plan but taking into consideration school environment, school schedule, and school professionals who may be working with the student at any time

Individualized Healthcare Plan

Simplified step-by-step plan built by school nurses for other staff to outline their role in an emergency; typically written for students with significant health problems (e.g. seizure disorders, or severe anaphylactic reactions)

Emergency Care Plan

Plan for educational success for students with disabilities or medical conditions/ Accommodates students' disabilities by changing the school environment

IEP/504 Accommodations

Created by the school nurse after significant injuries occur Purpose is to have a medical person write a full report about the incident Sent to insurance companies and the district office

Accident Reports

Concerned with the detection and intervention into the cause, risk factors, and precursors of disease 3 levels: primary, secondary, tertiary

Prevention

No one is sick, preventing disease from occurring Less costly that treating disease (secondary & tertiary prevention) Goal: to prevent disease from occurring Implemented while individuals are healthy and have not yet developed disease Aimed at susceptible individuals who have no discernible disease/pathology Ex: education, safe sex, IMMUNIZATIONS, etc.

Primary Prevention

Disease has occurred and we are trying to find it early, hopefully before symptoms appear Aim is to either reverse the process (cure) or reduce the severity of the disease Goal: detect disease in its early stages Ex: vision/hearing screenings, pap smears, BP screenings, etc.

Secondary Prevention

Trying to limit the amount of disease or disability a person experiences Symptom management/reduction Goal: to improve the course of disease, reduce disability, or rehabilitate Aimed at people with clinically apparent disease Expectation that these individuals will not return to their pre-illness level of functioning but can work toward highest level of functioning Ex: physical therapy, support groups, rehab/suboxone clinics

Tertiary Prevention

The use of electronic information and telecommunication technologies to support and promote long-distance clinical healthcare Can be real-time, two-way communication OR Asynchronous communication that is stored using technology, and then forwarded to provider at a later time

Telehealth

Medicare (federal) reimbursement for telehealth services has increased since the Affordable Care Act NYS has increased reimbursement for services through Medicaid (state) & commercial health insurance Real-time and asynchronous ARE included in coverage Telephone, electronic messaging, and facsimile transmissions ARE NOT reimbursed through Medicaid

Paying for Telehealth

Looks at individual, social, and physical environmental factors that influence a person's health promoting behaviors, or lack thereof Many levels of influence, or social environments that enhance/deter behavior How family, friends, & communities influence the food you eat, activities you engage in, and opportunity for health promoting behaviors Be aware of which influences are/are not within individual control Eliminates victim blaming bc poor health is not viewed as a personal failure

Ecological Model for Health Promotion

Changes in the social environment will produce changes in individuals Support of the individual in the population is essential for implementing environmental change

Assumption of Ecological Model

Ecological Model of Health Promotion Key Factors The first level includes characteristics of the individual; can work to change an individual to achieve health outcomes Nursing interventions aimed at changing the individual rather than modifying the social environment Attempt to change the individual through education, counseling, mass media campaigns, or incentives

Intrapersonal Factors

Ecological Model of Health Promotion Key Factors The factors include the social networks that provide emotional support, information, access to new social contracts, and social roles Goal: change the nature of the existing social relationships Targets of the Interventions: change norms of groups, increase accessibility to favorable groups, create alternative networks

Interpersonal Factors

Ecological Model of Health Promotion Key Factors Social institutions with organizational characteristics and formal/informal rules & regulations for operations (schools & worksites) Health behaviors are influenced by worksites, schools, places of worship, etc. (access to food, availability of exercise equipment, stress management policies) Beneficial bc access to large # of people & social support for behavioral change Challenging bc health of workers may not be part of mission statement & employers may not feel employee health is their responsibility Goal: change "corporate culture" & include health related norms/values as part of mission & philosophy

Organizational/Institutional Factors

Ecological Model of Health Promotion Key Factors Looks at relationships among organizations, institutions, and informal networks within defined boundaries; power structures in community, community health problems, and allocation of resources Target of intervention: increase coordination among community organizations and coalition building Include representation rom disadvantaged population on community boards; community organizing strategies

Community Factors

Ecological Model of Health Promotion Key Factors Local, state, and national laws and policies (policies that restrict behaviors; behavioral incentives) Allocation of programmatic resources and federal restrictions on how funds can be allocated Public advocacy; encourage citizen participation in political process (voting & lobbying) **REMEMBER: The MOST effective way to change someone's behavior is to regulate it**

Public Policy Factors

Drastic inequalities in health from impoverished to wealthy countries Health is very sensitive to social environment Goal: Improve social and physical environments to promote optimal health Economic stability Education Health/Healthcare Neighborhood & Built Environment Social/Community Context

Social Determinants of Health

Provides science-based, 10-year national objectives for improving the health of all Americans Encourage collaborations across communities Empower individuals toward making informed health decisions Measure the impact of prevention activities

Healthy People

Started with 1979 Surgeon General's Report Jurisdiction: USDHHS 1990: Promoting Health/Disease: Objectives for the Nation 2000: National Health Promotion & Disease Prevention Objectives 2010: Objectives for Improving Health 2020: New topic areas & progress reports

History of Healthy People

Vision: a society in which all people can achieve their full potential for health & wellbeing across the lifespan Mission: to promote, strengthen, and evaluate the nation's efforts to improve the health and wellbeing of all people

Healthy People 2030

Genes and biology (sex, age, family Hx, inherited disease) Health behaviors (diet, exercise, substance abuse, hygiene practices) Health services/Medical care (cost, access to quality healthcare, language barrier, insurance status) Social environment/characteristics (discrimination, socioeconomic status, pollution, quality of schools) Policy making (laws and regulations at local, state, and federal level)

Determinants of Health

Unless a person sees some value in making a behavior change, there will be no reason to consider the change Premise: in order for disease prevention & health promotion activities to be successful --> the client has to be willing to participate & health is highly values

Health Belief Model

Based on the understanding that a person will take health-related action if that person: Feels that a negative health condition can be avoided Has a positive expectation that by taking a recommended action, a negative health condition can be avoided Believes that a recommended health action can be successfully accomplished

HBM Core Assumptions

Main variable of HBM The degree to which a person believes he/she is at risk for a particular disease or health problem

Perceived susceptibility

Main variable of HBM The perceived consequences of getting the disease Modifying factors: Demographic variables Sociopsychological variables Structural variables

Perceived severity

Main variable of HBM Perceived problems to overcome in changing the behavior

Perceived barriers

Main variable of HBM Perception that there are benefits to be gained from changing the behavior

Perceived benefits

Mass media campaigns Advice from others Reminder cards from primary care providers Illness of family members or friends Newspaper or magazine articles

Cues to Action (HBM)

Consists of components of perceived benefits or preventive action minus perceived barriers to preventive action Likelihood = Benefits - Barriers *Think good - bad

Likelihood of Action (HBM)

Theory based on a person's expectation relative to a specific course of action Deals with belief that one can accomplish a specific action Involves strategies such as modeling, demonstration, and verbal reinforcement

Self-Efficacy (HBM)

Theory consisting of processes of change that predict successful behavior changes Stages: Precontemplation Contemplation Preparation Action Maintenance Termination *Relapse

Transtheoretical Model of Change

First stage of Transtheoretical model The subject has no intention of changing behavior in the foreseeable future People in this stage tend to be unaware that they have a problem and are resistant to efforts to modify a behavior

Precontemplation

Intervention to help transition from precontemplation to contemplation Finding and learning new facts, ideas, and tips that support healthy behavior change

Consciousness raising

Intervention to help transition from precontemplation to contemplation Experiencing the negative emotions (fear, anxiety, worry) that go along with unhealthy behavioral risks

Dramatic Relief

Intervention to help transition from precontemplation to contemplation Realizing negative impact of unhealthy behavior or positive impact of healthy behavior on one's proximal social and physical environment

Environmental-Reevaluation

Second stage of Transtheoretical model Subjects are aware that they have a problem and are seriously thinking about resolving it, but they have not yet made a commitment to take action in the near future

Contemplation

Intervention to help transition from contemplation to preparation Realizing that the behavioral change is an important part of one's identity as a person

Self-Reevaluation

Third stage of Transtheoretical model This is the stage of decision-making; the person has made the commitment to take action within the next 30 days and is already making small behavioral changes

Preparation

Intervention to help transition from preparation to action Making a firm commitment to change

Self-liberation

Fourth stage of Transtheoretical model Subjects make notable efforts to change Classified in this stage if the person has modified the target behavior to an acceptable criterion

Action

Intervention to help transition from action to maintenance Contingency management Increase the rewards for the positive behavioral change & decrease rewards of the unhealthy behavior

Reinforcement Management

Intervention to help transition from action to maintenance Seeking and using social support for the healthy behavioral change

Helping relationships

Intervention to help transition from action to maintenance Substituting healthy alternative behaviors and cognitions for the unhealthy behavior

Counterconditioning

Intervention to help transition from action to maintenance Removing reminders or cues to engage in the unhealthy behavior and adding cues or reminders to engage in the healthy behavior

Stimulus Control

Intervention to help transition from action to maintenance Realizing that the social norms are changing in the direction of supporting the healthy behavioral change

Social Liberation

Fifth stage of Transtheoretical model Subjects are working to stabilize their behavior change and avoid relapse In general, it's sustaining action for at least 6 months

Maintenance

Sixth stage of Transtheoretical model Applies only to some behaviors, especially the addictions Individual does not have any temptations May not be appropriate for some behaviors such as cancer screening & dietary fat reduction

Termination

Not a real stage of Transtheoretical model People must learn to treat this as a limited minor setback rather than a defeat; strategies need to be implemented to get the person to return to contemplation, preparation, or action stages

Relapse

Child development Economic stability Emergency preparedness Environmental health Overweight & obesity Vaccination

Healthy People 2030 Overarching Goals for Children

Cancer Adolescent development Family planning LGBTQ+ STIs Sleep

Healthy People 2030 Overarching Goals for Adolescents

Means completely accidental; the outcome was not anticipated Ex: riding bike w/o helmet and getting head injury Ex: driving drunk and getting into car accident Intent is NOT to get hurt

Unintentional Injury

Involves activity with intent to cause harm Ex: carrying a weapon (assumption is that you will use it)

Intentional Injury

The more assets a young person has, the fewer risky behaviors they are likely to engage in and the more positive outcomes they will experience Focuses on ALL children (not just those at risk for negative outcomes) Emphasizes a community approach to promoting adolescent health

Developmental Assets Framework

Adolescent perceptions of their parents knowledge of who they are spending their time with Less perceived monitoring has been associated with a higher degree of participation in risky behaviors

Parental Monitoring

Negative effects on physical & mental health Impacts home, school, neighborhoods, and communities Greater risk for poor academic achievement, school drop-out, abuse & neglect, behavioral and socio-emotional problems, physical health problems, and developmental delays All may contribute to lower life expectancy

Poverty in Children

Prevention of childhood injuries Substance abuse prevention education Disease prevention education Efforts to prevent suicide and other mental health problems **Required vaccinations**

Primary Prevention in Schools

Nursing care for emergencies in the school Emergency equipment in school nurse's office Giving medication in school Screening for lice Identification of child abuse/neglect Communicating with healthcare providers Addressing violence at school School crisis teams- responding to disasters

Secondary Prevention in Schools

Individual Education Plan Asthma assistance Diabetes mellitus care Autism assistance ADHD care Special needs in the school DNR orders Homebound children Pregnant teens and teen mothers

Tertiary Prevention in Schools

Young adults: 19-39 years Important life events are spousal and family relationships Success = strong relationships Failure = loneliness & isolation

Intimacy vs. Isolation

Middle adults: 40-64 years Important life events are work and parenting tasks Success = feelings of usefulness and accomplishment Failure = shallow involvement in the world

Generativity vs. Stagnation

Older adults: 65+ years Important life event is reflection on life Success = fulfillment and feelings of wisdom Failure = regret, bitterness, and despair

Ego Integrity vs. Despair

Intelligence is demonstrated through logical use of symbols related to abstract concepts; Only about 35% of high school graduates obtain this stage Many people don't think formally

Formal Operations (adulthood)

Individuals behave according to approval/disapproval from others as it reflects society's accordance with perceived role Trying to live up to expectations "Golden rule" Judge morality of actions based on its consequences in terms of a person's relationships, respect, and gratitude Desire to maintain rules and authority

Stage 3: Interpersonal Accord and Conformity Driven (conventional)

Important to obey laws and social conventions A central ideal or ideals often prescribe what is right/wrong Sense of obligation and duty to uphold laws and rules

Stage 4: Authority and Social Order Obedience Driven (conventional)

Individuals are viewed as holding different opinions and values Laws are regarded as social contracts rather than rigid dictum Laws that don't promote general welfare should be changed when necessary for the greater good

Stage 5: Social Contract Driven (post-conventional)

Moral reasoning is based on abstract reasoning using ethical principles Laws are valid only insofar as they are grounded in justice and that a commitment to justice carries with it an obligation to disobey unjust laws One acts bc it is right, not bc it's instrumental, expected, legal, or previously agreed upon

Stage 6: Universal Ethical Principles Driven

Eating disorders, reproductive health, gestational diabetes, menopause, breast cancer, osteoporosis

Women's Health Concerns

Prostate cancer, testicular cancer, erectile dysfunction

Men's Health Concerns

T= training in care techniques, safe medication use, recognition of abnormalities, and available resources L= Leaving care situation periodically for respite and reevaluation and to maintain normal living needs C= Care for themselves (the caregiver) through adequate sleep, rest, exercise, nutrition, socialization, solitude, support, financial aid, and health management
