Abstract:
This paper focuses on the monitoring of indoor air quality parameters, namely: indoor temperature, humidity, velocity, particulate matter, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide in day care centres. This study selected 15 day care centres located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. These day care centres were categorized as follows: (1) day care centers near an industrial area, (2) day care centers near a main road, and (3) day care centers in a residential area. The obtained data showed that the values for the indoor air quality parameters in all day care centres were still well below the recommended value according to the Department of Safety and Health, Malaysia. The day care centers near an industrial area had the highest value of carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide as compared to the day care centers near a main road and the day care centers in a residential area. The average concentrations of carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide in the day care centers near an industrial area were 3.67 ppm and 801.56 ppm respectively. Meanwhile, the carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide in the day care centers near a main road area and the day care centers in a residential area were 3.13 ppm, 768.22 ppm, 2.92 ppm and 733.70 ppm, respectively.

Abstract:
Using methods derived from post occupancy evaluation and ethnography, the visual and physical environmental characteristics of eighteen daycare centres were studied and inventorized. The attitudes, perceptions and ideologies of the directors and staffs to these learning environments and arts activities were also ascertained. The centres were located in Edmonton, Alberta, and both private and public centres were studied. The children attending these centres came from diverse cultural and economic backgrounds. The characteristics were recorded in an informal manner, through field notes, photographs and a pre-coded checklist which rated the quality of the items. From this, three subcategories of quality were derived; standard, below standard and above standard. The descriptive data indicated that the majority of the components of the centres constitute a standard quality, that centres have hard, institutional like qualities and that adult standards predominate. Analysis of 38 questionnaires returned from the directors and staff of the centres and evidence from the data and descriptive material, revealed there was a significant lack of knowledge or concern for the child's intrinsic needs, and the role of the visual and physical environment in learning. Their concern within the the learning environment was primarily for the physical aspects and changes to those aspects and arts activities were made according to adult standards. Apparent in the data was an adult product oriented approach to arts activities. What is recommended in this study is the need for early childhood educators to recognize the importance of the visual and physical environment to learning, and the role arts activities play in the total development of a pre-school child. Further recommendations include the investigation of training programmes for day care personnel, and the development of, through co-operation with arts educators, artists and architects, environmental alternatives for learning.

Abstract:
As the need for community care increases, complete and up-to-date information about organizational structure is crucial to making appropriate decisions about the expansion of adult day services. The absence of uniform national policies results in states and communities being relegated to balancing limited funds with the demand for adult day services, and in many areas, the lack of adult day care centers altogether. This study provides an overview of the types of state reimbursement, the availability of different funding sources, and the utilization of the sources in various states.

Abstract:
The utilization of center-based child care services by working and student parents has increased dramatically over the last two decades, and has been accompanied by an equally strong interest, among the public and researchers alike, in the establishment and maintenance of quality caregiving in center-based care. This study addresses the leadership characteristics of administrators of quality child care centers. The intent of the study is to add to the existing knowledge concerning the role that the child care center administrator has in maintaining the delivery of high quality child care by the teaching-caregiving staff. Two factors were investigated: the leadership style of the administrator; and the organizational climate of the center, which is both directly and indirectly influenced by the administrator. Four child care centers were selected as the cases to be examined. The information about leadership style and organization climate was gathered through the use of semi-structured interviews with the administrators, the Leadership Style Assessment Tool, the Early Childhood Work Environment Survey, and SYMLOG Group Average Field Diagrams. From this study, the leadership characteristics that the administrators of high quality child care centers shared in common were that they employed a balanced leadership style that utilized different approaches depending on the situation. The administrators in this study chose a mostly female approach to their job which seemed to create very healthy, responsive, and supportive work environments for the teacher-caregivers. The work environments that these leaders have created tend to unify the staff members who work there in a positive direction. These high quality child care centers are, in one word, friendly. The leaders of these provide staff with strong supervisor support, opportunities for professional growth, and an appropriate physical setting in which to do their work. These factors are strongly related to findings about high quality early childhood education in the research, and this study has provided additional support for these findings.

Abstract:
In my research, I examined abandonment fears in persons with Alzheimer's disease at the Salem Veterans Affairs adult day care center. I observed fifty hours at the center, and conducted open-ended interviews with two of the participants and their respective caregivers. These two participants (Ellen and Opel) at the center expressed abandonment fears much more frequently than any of the other participants. I found that most of the time, these two women would express their abandonment fears in the form of repetitive questions about going home. Staff used two different methods to deal with the problem: 'reassurance by fact' and redirection. The staff was divided as to the efficacy of their methods and whether more frequent attendance would help Ellen and Opel to adjust to the center. Some participants were bothered by the their constant questions, while others were not. Using an existing attachment questionnaire, Ellen's daughter classified her mother as having an avoidant attachment style, but Opel's daughter classified her mother as having secure attachment. Although Ellen's behavior at the center fit with the description of a person with avoidant attachment (e.g., extreme self-reliance, activity disturbance), Opel's fearful nature did not suggest that she had a secure attachment style as her daughter believed.

Abstract:
Abstract: Alzheimer Disease International ranked Macao as the highest stage five to develop dementia-friendly community globally. Awareness of dementia care among older people was of great significance for the prevention and early detection of dementia. This study aimed to investigate the awareness of dementia care among community-dwelling older people in Macao. The validated questionnaires investigating the awareness of dementia care, in terms of knowledge, attitude and preventive practice domain, were distributed to older people from 14 randomly selected day centres and community rehabilitation wards in Macao and 408 public samples were collected. The score of the knowledge domain was 58.15+20.95, the attitude was 75.34+7.99, and the preventive practice was 76.10+12.48. Older people’s knowledge (58.15+20.95) was significantly less than the health professionals working in Health Centers (p<0.001) and the staff working in day-care centres and nursing homes in Macao (p<0.001). Older people’s preventive practice (76.10+12.48) was significantly less than the health professionals working in Health Centers in Macao (p<0.01). These findings demonstrated that community-dwelling older people in Macao had less knowledge and less preventive practice of dementia care. More public lectures and education for community-dwelling older people in Macao were recommended strongly to improve their knowledge and preventive practice of dementia care.

Abstract:
In Brazil, since 1996, the Law of Guidelines and Bases of Education (BRASIL, 1996) defines Early Childhood Education as the first stage of Basic Education, aiming at the integral development of children up to five years of age, in their physical, psychological, intellectual and social, complementing the action of the family and the community. In 1999, National Curriculum Guidelines for Early Childhood Education (DCNEIs) were established, revised by CNE/CEB Resolution No. 5/2009 (BRASIL, 2009). This Resolution characterizes day care centers and preschools as institutional spaces for the education and care of children from zero to five years old.

Abstract:
The United States’ Institute of Medicine established patient-centered care as an aim for the 21st-century health care system. Patient-centered care focuses on the patient, their family members and staff experience, while ensuring patient safety and high clinical quality. A medical center in the Veterans Affairs healthcare system approached the Veterans Affairs Center for Applied Systems Engineering to assist in the redesign of the facility that provides medical cancer care. Their goals were to design a patient-centered, state-of-the-art center. Discrete event simulation provided rough order of magnitude estimates for facility and resource planning. Primary metrics of concern were patient length of stay, patient wait time, and room and staff utilization. The simulation included an animated visualization of ‘a day in the life’ of a patient. It also collected metrics on patient experience and center efficiency. Watching the patient flow animation provided two primary insights to the stakeholders. First, it was evident that the patient care process was patient-centered in that it limited patient movement. Second, observations of traffic flow indicated that the design can accommodate the desired patient demand. The visualization showed that increasing the number of providers resulted in reductions in patient wait times and that reducing the number of exam rooms did not significantly affect patient wait time. This exercise demonstrated the value of simulation in the planning and analysis of facility configurations when considering patient-centered design.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The digital age and advances in technology are introducing a new attitude to medical care, bringing about significant technologies such as exergames, enhancing the promotion of active and healthy aging. This study aimed to investigate possible differences in perceived quality of life factors between older adults participating in traditional dance and physical training using new technologies, comparing them with sedentary people (control group). The study involved 84 women, with an average age of 67.6 years from Day Care Centers of the Municipality of Thessaloniki, Greece. The program duration was six months (24 weeks) with a frequency of twice a week and each session lasted 75 minutes. An evaluation was performed both before and after the end of the interventions with specialized tools that assess the physical status and functional capacity of the individuals, as well as questionnaires that assess the quality of life indicators. Regarding the usability of the systems, integrated the System Usability Scale (SUS). Statistical analysis was performed with the statistical package SPSS 26. According to the results, the intervention groups compared to the initial measurement showed a statistically significant improvement in variables that assess strength, balance, aerobic capacity, gait to avoid falls, stress, depression, and quality of life in general, in comparison with the control group (p ≤ .05). The SUS scores ranged around 80 for both systems, so it seems that the practical implementation of the programs has the potential to provide the expected results. In conclusion, these innovative technological solutions in collaboration with expert health professionals, can improve the quality of life of older adults, remain autonomous and independent, but at the same time active members of society for a long time.

Abstract:
This paper presents a comprehensive empirical analysis of the impact of attending a child day care center on early childhood development (ECD) in Chile, examining child development from a multi-dimensional perspective. The potential endogeneity associated with the parental decision of sending children to day care centers (or preschools) is addressed. Additionally, unobserved heterogeneity is interpreted as (latent) abilities. This approach provides a unifying framework combining parental decisions, children¿s endowments, and child care characteristics. The results of the study suggest that: (i) cognitive and socioemotional test scores from children younger than two are too noisy to be analyzed; (ii) analysis of enrollment in child care centers for children older than two reveals significant effects of family background, unobserved abilities, the local availability of centers, and local capacity; and (iii) enrollment in child care centers seems to boost cognitive development among children older than two.

Abstract:
Increased urbanization, population growth, and demand for time-sensitive deliveries means increased freight movement in cities, which contributes to emissions, noise, and safety concerns. One innovative mode gaining widespread attention for urban deliveries is cargo cycles—bicycles adapted for freight delivery. Despite the recognized potential and possible success of transporting at least 25% of freight via cycle, research remains limited. This research investigates the potential of cargo cycle delivery for last mile freight in Oakland, California, with a focus on the West Oakland neighborhood. The data collection included interviews, focus groups, vehicle field observation and counts, and traffic simulation modeling. The traffic simulation examined scenarios where businesses converted different percentages of current deliveries to cargo cycles using a transfer hub as the starting point for their cargo cycle delivery. The best-case scenario—where the maximum percentage of deliveries were made with cargo cycle instead of motorized vehicles—resulted in reductions of 2600 vehicle miles traveled (VMT) per day. In that case scenario, the vehicle miles traveled (VMT) reduction is equivalent to a reduction in emissions of PM2.5, PM10, NOx, and reactive organic gas (ROG) of taking about 1000 Class 4 box trucks off the roads of West Oakland per day. In the worst-case scenario, with a significantly smaller percentage of motorized package deliveries converted to cargo cycles, there is a reduction of 160 VMT, equivalent to the removal of approximately 80 Class 4 box trucks off the roads of West Oakland per day. This potential reduction in air pollution and traffic congestion, as well as job creation, would benefit West Oakland residents.

Abstract:
Background &objectives: Candida species are emerging as a signicant pathogen certain species of Candida like Candida krusei are inherently resistant to azoles. In vitro susceptibility testing is essential for guiding therapy. The present study aims todetermine the antifungal susceptibility pattern ofNon albicansCandida isolates by disc diffusion and micro broth dilution method. Methods:This was a prospective study, conducted among 200 patients complaining of Vulvovaginal dischargeSpeciation was done as per standard microbiological methods. Non albicans Candida species were identied. Antifungal resistance was determined by disc diffusion method for uconazole, Voriconazole and by microbrothdilution for uconazole. Results: A total of 200 samples were collected from patients complaining of vaginal discharge . Out of them 69 were identied as Candida species , 31[44%] were C.albicans and 38 [56%] were non albicans Candida among them C.glabrata 22 (57%) , C.tropicalis 12 (31%), and 4 (10%) C.krusei. In the Interpretation and conclusion: present study, all the isolates of C. krusei 4 [10% ] tested showed resistance to uconazole by both disc diffusion and microbroth dilution methods . All isolates of C.glabrata 22 [ 57%] and C. tropicalis 12[31%] , tested were sensitive to uconazole by both disc diffusion and microbroth dilution . For voriconazole there was no resistance among all isolates tested by disc diffusion method. It is essential to perform susceptibility testing for all the Candida isolates for providing crucial information about the resistance pattern and help in choosing the appropriate antifungal drug for therapy. Disc diffusion method which is easy to perform can be utilized for day to day practice

Abstract:
This report provides a summary of the results obtained in laboratory-scale testing of dry-decontamination technologies. The purpose of the experiment is to assess nonaqueous technologies to determine the viability of a solution to mitigate chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) defense, CBRN Response Enterprise, medical casualty care, and cold-weather operational gaps. The Cold Regions Research and Engineering Laboratory (CRREL) assessed the efficacy, via percentage reduction, of four nonaqueous technologies to decontaminate particulate contamination, at three operational temperatures, from three starting challenges. Testing was conducted by CRREL personnel according to protocols developed in conjunction with the Homeland Defense/Civil Support Office Maneuver Support Center of Excellence and the Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute (AFRRI) and approved by Joint Program Executive Office CBRN Protection. CRREL subsequently collected data and conducted statistical measures of significance and explored additional questions about the technology capabilities. CRREL personnel then deployed with AFRRI support to Arctic Eagle/Patriot 22 (AE/P-22) for field testing of the technologies and their evaluation from an operational perspective. AE/P-22 allowed for direct, full-scale testing of the technology in conditions approximating a use-case scenario. This report documents the culmination of analysis performed on CRREL- and AFRRI-collected test data results, operational factors, and user inputs.

Abstract:
This case study takes the reader through the journey of Dhaval Udani and danamojo, a social enterprise founded by Dhaval in 2016, that is looking to harness digital technology to expand the space of charitable giving between individuals and nonprofits in India. In so doing, it is also trying to strengthen its underlying idiom: that of trust, transparency and commitment. danamojo is representative of an emerging breed of organizations, and individuals behind them, that are trying to bring highly specialised expertise in a form relevant to civil society at large without affecting its core ethos. The case is unusually detailed for a seven-year-old organization. But in detailing the motivations of its founder, the digital platform that danamojo has built, the challenges of sustaining quality with thin resources, and the pressures of nurturing a culture centred on integrity, the case seeks to highlight that it takes much more than a sound idea, funds and expertise to sustain an enterprise that is relevant and delivers value day on day. In the case of danamojo, it is the likes of diligence and determination, integrity and intensity, creativity and commitment that have been the source of its real enterprise value.
