Abstract:

How to improve service provision in the health care sector is a question of high economic and social relevance, as the health service industry represents a major part of developed nations’ economy and health care is a service virtually everyone is touched by in their life. The topic embraces different perspectives or levers, including the (re)organization of service provision, a stronger focus on the patient in the service delivery process, and the crucial role of employees in health service provision. We invited a group of well-renown scholars from different academic fields to share with us personal observations, empirical evidence, and interpretations of how to improve service provision in health care in the form of individual commentaries that cover the different perspectives. The resulting special research article includes motivations on why changes in the health care sector make service management research (smr) more relevant, it depicts implications (of smr) for health care organizations, and it outlines suggestions for future research. This article is designed to offer avenues for further service research on different perspectives for the improvement and professionalization of health care – a discipline in which joint efforts of service and health care researchers can have great societal impact.

Abstract:

This paper discusses the role of social enterprise (SE) – the use of business practice to achieve a social goal – in UK health services delivery. Such SE activity has increased in recent years along with the rise in public sector commissioning of health and care services. SE has been identified as an organizational model with the potential to deliver socially and economically sustainable health and social care services. This paper presents evidence from workshops held with SE practitioners and public sector procurement professionals, during which they discussed the current and potential role of SE in health services delivery. The paper reflects on the opportunities for, but also the potential pitfalls of, greater SE involvement in the health and social care sector from the point of view of both SE practitioners and public sector procurement professionals. It demonstrates that SE-type businesses are viewed by both SE practitioners and public sector professionals as suited to working in certain areas of health and social care provision, but as falling short of what is needed in others, particularly in terms of capacity and expertise.

Abstract:

Services that provide wheelchairs to permanently disabled people have undergone fundamental changes following the recommendations of the McColl report in 1986. The devolution of centralised wheelchair services to the National Health Service (NHS) health districts in 1991 coincided with the implementation of the government's proposals for NHS reforms and community care initiatives. This paper describes a four-part research study, undertaken to identify and investigate key factors which propose effectiveness in the post-devolution wheelchair service. The sample comprised 125 wheelchair therapists as service providers and a total of 130 service users. The user sample consisted of 84 people issued with NHS manual wheelchairs, 27 indoor powered wheelchair users and 19 special seating users. An integrated methodology was employed, including questionnaires, interviews, participant observation and case studies. The research identified the development of client-centred referral and assessment procedures for wheelchairs and seating, and highlighted the need for increased therapist training. Close links between wheelchair services and local therapists were found, providing greater access to assessment for wheelchair users. An increased demand for wheelchairs outside the NHS range and a rising number of referrals for elderly people were recorded, although the management of finite resources resulted in eligibility criteria designed to control supply and provision variations between districts.

Abstract:

BackgroundThe aim of this study was to provide information on patients' current service use which could inform future decisions on service planning and resource allocation.MethodIndividuals with a diagnosis of schizophrenia, who had received in-patient care in the previous five years, were identified from the Lothian Case Register. Information was obtained from 193 subjects. Patients' service use over a six-month period was examined. The costs incurred in service provision were determined.ResultsPatients differed markedly in their use of services. This was not found to be related to their mental state. Average care costs were high. In-patient care accounted for most of the overall expenditure.ConclusionsThere is considerable variation in the services used by patients with schizophrenia and in the costs incurred in service provision. When planning services it is therefore important that detailed information on the patient population is available if resources are to be allocated cost-effectively.

Abstract:

The approach of health service can be divided into a medical term and psychosocial term that are applied by the mental health professional. The mental heath services help their clients with mental illness by giving a specific treatments particularly from psychological view. The information in this essay were collected from two databases that are CINAHL and Health Science. It also included the University of Wollongong e-journal database for nursing program. Based on the internet research, it is imperative that the intervention can be delivered in the form of case management. This paper therefore will discuss the psychosocial care for mentally ill clients in terms of concept, components, interventions and benefit in the practical area. The strategies to develop the treatment more effective are also discussed in depth. Keywords. psychosocial care, medical care, mental health.

Abstract:

Inequalities in health and wellbeing within low socioeconomic (SES) environments are well documented. Factors inherent to the health care system itself, such as inaccessible, inflexible or inappropriate service provision, contribute to the poorer health status of residents of low SES areas. This paper explores the issues of service provision in low SES areas, documenting the perceptions of service providers about the service needs of residents, in order to understand the systemic factors that negatively impact on health and wellbeing. A total of 54 health and welfare service providers from two adjacent low SES suburbs within regional Victoria were interviewed using qualitative research methods. Key findings indicate that successful navigation of health care services by residents within these low SES environments is being impeded by issues of access, a lack of appropriate early intervention options or measures, and general resident disempowerment. Central to the improvement of service provision is the need for services to become economically, geographically and culturally accessible. In particular, the importance of community involvement in health planning and health promoting services must be reflected in the ethos of service provision.

Abstract:

Child maltreatment, and recurrent maltreatment in particular, occurs at an alarmingly high rate. Frequency of reports to Child Protective Services (CPS) is associated with negative psychological outcomes, and children whose reports are unsubstantiated experience similar risk of behavioral, emotional, and substance use disorders as those whose reports are substantiated. Prior research has demonstrated that children with no CPS reports and children with one CPS report showed no significant differences in rates of maltreatment perpetration or substance use in adulthood, suggesting that prevention efforts after one report may have strong merit in reducing negative outcomes in adulthood. However, patterns and risk factors of unsubstantiated reports have been only minimally explored thus far, despite having been found to predict subsequent maltreatment. The current study extends upon previous research by (a) examining both substantiated and unsubstantiated reports to identify longitudinal patterns of timing and recurrence and (b) assessing the extent to which service provision mediates long-term recurrence after each type of report. Analyses were conducted using subsamples of a longitudinal national dataset from 2011-2015 containing data from CPS reports for 3,655,951 children. Measures included child, caregiver, and CPS case characteristics obtained at the time of first report in 2011. Latent class analysis of referral patterns indicated four classes of recurrence patterns: (1) 2011 unsubstantiation followed by moderate recurrence, (2) 2011 unsubstantiation followed by low recurrence, (3) 2011 substantiation followed by moderate recurrence, and (4) 2011 substantiation followed by low recurrence. Multinomial logistic regression with most likely class membership as the outcome variable indicated that domestic violence, caregiver substance abuse, and poverty were better predictors of initial substantiation status than of long-term recurrence. Prior victimization was predictive of initial substantiation status as well as long-term recurrence. Asian American race predicted low rates of recurrence. Latent class analysis of service provision revealed only two classes: a class of children who received services and a class of children who did not. Service provision partially mediated associations between initial substantiation status and five-year maltreatment recurrence, as measured by number of subsequent reports, number of subsequent substantiated reports, and number of subsequent years in foster care. Limitations are considered and implications of using predictive modeling to drive service prioritization are discussed.

Abstract:

The current study used a grounded theory approach to better understand the experiences of foster carers with regards to how they understood and coped with the emotional and behavioural problems of children in their care and what types of support they required from Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS). Background: In recent years, there has been an increasing research interest in the qualitative experiences of foster carers, given the demands they face in the current context of child-care policy. Previous studies have focused on narrative accounts and specific aspects of experience, such as dealing with difficulties and support. There is, however, a lack of research using grounded theory to explore their experiences in detail. Over the last two years, following the government's "Quality Protects" initiative, new specialist mental health services for looked after children and their carers have been set up around the country. Given these recent service developments and limited research into their role with foster carers as yet, foster carers' views and experiences of CAMHS are valuable in informing future service provision for this client group. Method: In-depth, subjective accounts of eight foster carers from six foster families employed in one local authority were obtained through interviews. Results: Four major and inter-linking categories emerged from the interviews relating to ambivalent relationships with the children in their care, the children's parents and wider services, including CAMHS. However, one core category subsumed all of these categories and was referred to as the inherent contradiction in the foster carers' role - that of being a parent, but at the same time being a professional. Discussion: The themes that emerged from the interviews with the foster carers related to previous literature on their experiences and issues of support. The findings had implications in terms of specialist psychological support and consultation to foster carers.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Health statistics on adolescents in Namibia indaicate high incidences of teenage unwanted pregnancies, unsafe abortions, baby dumping, maternal ill health, early marriages and STIs including HIV. These are indicators of underutilisation of adolescent friendly health services (AFHS) by adolescents as education on these problems are covered in it. Although Government has made some strides to esure implementation starts, there is a recognisable lack of its adoption by health workers. The aim of this study was to establish the reasons for the slow adoption of AFHS practices by health workers at Katutura Health Centre. A quantitative non-experimental cross-sectional descriprive research approach was used in this study. Evidence using both primary data collected in the field through self-administered semi-structured questionnaires (with both open and closed questions) and secondary data collected in the literature review was employed . A census of the entire population of health workers was prefered over sampling. A total of 56 health workers accepted to participate in the study and the questionnaire, 46 of which returned it within a stipulated three weeks data collection period. Descriptive statistics was utilised together with frequencies, mean and basic collection. Eighty two percent of the sample participated in the study of which 67% respondents were female and 33% were male. The majority of the respondents (78.3%) had tertiary education. The results indicated: AFHS were not known to the majority of health workers; there is slow adoption of AFHS; and the programme introduction could have been done better. Factors significantly associated with adoption of AFHS are knowledge of such services, sex, level of education, job position, work experience and effective implementation of the programme. A probability value of p<0.05 was adopted. The programme is well appreciated despite concerns of lack of training and proper implementation. Key recommendations were on staff recruitment, retention and training of health workers; creation of space for implementing AFHS and marketing the programme. The system is in place, what is left is to tighten some loose ends and programme is up and running.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Gesondheid statistieke oor die jeug in Namibië verwys na hoë voorkoms van ongewenste tiener swangerskappe en onveilige aborsies, weg gooi van babas, swak moederlike gesondheid, vroeë huwelike en seksueel oordraagbare siektes, insluitend MIV. Dit is aanwysers van die onderbenutting van jeug vriendelike gesondheidsdienste (AFHS) deur die jeug, as die onderwys op hierdie probleme gedek word. Hoewel die regering 'n paar implementerings begin het, is daar 'n beduidende gebrek van aanneming deur gesondheidswerkers. Die doel van hierdie studie was om die redes vas te stel vir die stadige aanvaarding van AFHS praktyke deur gesondheidswerkers by Katutura Gesondheids Sentrum. 'n Kwantitatiewe, nie-eksperimentele navorsingsbenadering is gebruik in hierdie studie. Bewyse uit beide primêre data wat ingesamel is in die veld deur middel van self-geadministreerde semi-gestruktureerde vraelyste (met beide oop en geslote vrae) en sekondêre data wat ingesamel is in die literatuuroorsig was gebruik. 'n Sensus van die hele bevolking van gesondheidswerkers is verkies in plaas van steekproefneming. 'n Totaal van 56 gesondheidswerkers het aanvaar om deel te neem aan die studie en die vraelys, waarvan 46 teruggedien is binne die vasgestelde tydperk van drie weke se data-invorderingstermyn. Beskrywende statistiek is gebruik saam met frekwensies, gemiddelde en basiese versameling. Tagtig en twee persent van die steekproef het deelgeneem aan die studie, waarvan 67% respondente vroulik en 33% manlik was. Die meerderheid van die respondente (78,3%) het tersiêre opleiding. Die resultate het aangedui: AFHS is nie bekend aan die meeste van gesondheidswerkers nie, en daar is stadige aanneming van AFHS; en die program inleiding kon beter gedoen gewees het. Faktore wat beduidend verband hou met die aanneming van AFHS is kennis van sodanige dienste, geslag, vlak van onderwys, werk posisie, werkervaring en doeltreffende implementering van die program. 'n Waarskynlikheid waarde van p <0,05 is aangeneem. Die program is goed waardeer ten spyte van kommer aan 'n gebrek van opleiding en behoorlike implementering. Belangrikste aanbevelings was op die personeel werwing, behoud en die opleiding van gesondheidswerkers; skepping van ruimte vir die implementering van AFHS en bemarking van die program. Die stelsel is in plek, wat oorbly om gedoen te word, is om 'n paar los punte te versterk en die program is aan die gang.

Abstract:

Nepal achieved the Millennium Development Goal 5 by reducing its maternal mortality by more than two thirds. This achievement has been credited to Female Community Health Volunteers (FCHVs) delivering basic Maternal Health Service (MHS) to pregnant women and mothers in their communities. This thesis explores the role of FCHVs in MHS provision in two regions (the hill and Terai ), from the perspectives of health workers, service users, and FCHVs themselves. Data were collected between May 2014 and September 2014 using qualitative methods. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 FCHVs, 11 health workers and 26 women in villages. In addition, four focus group discussions were held with 19 FCHVs and field notes were taken throughout the data collection. Data were analysed using thematic analysis. The study found that most participants viewed FCHVs as a valuable resource in improving MHSs. In both regions, the FCHVs raised health awareness among pregnant women or mothers and referred them for check-ups. They shared health messages through mothers' group meetings and the meetings were also used for discussions around budgeting and finance, which sometimes left little time for discussion on health topics. Such activities, combined with the FCHVs’ lack of education, often proved to be counterproductive to their service provision. The roles of FCHVs were crucial in the hill region where there was limited access to professional healthcare. An important area of FCHVs’ work involved accompanying and assisting women during delivery. In addition, they distributed medicines, administered pregnancy tests and informed women about emergency contraception and availability of abortion services. The FCHVs used novel methods to share maternal health information: for example, they sang folk songs which contained health messages or visited new mothers with food hampers. Such services were invaluable for women in the remote hill villages, who otherwise would not have received any healthcare. In terms of their motivations to volunteer, this study found that FCHVs viewed their work as a form of basic human and social responsibility. In addition, they reported feeling empowered as a result of training and socio-economic opportunities. However, a lack of financial and non-financial incentives was the key hindrance for them in delivering their services, followed by their perception of community misunderstanding about their services. In addition, health system factors such as lack of medical supplies and irregular supervision hindered them in carrying out their role effectively. In general, volunteers in the Terai received less support than those in the hill region. Furthermore, FCHVs perceived a lack of respect by some health workers towards them. A lack of coordination between government health centres and non-governmental organisations was also noted. The thesis concludes with several recommendations for policy makers, practitioners and researchers in order to improve the services by FCHVs. These include providing the FCHVs with context specific support - financial and non-financial incentives, access to supplies, educational training, and supportive supervision - to enable them to deliver services more productively. Recommendations are also made for ensuring that FCHVs are recognised and respected for their contribution to MHSs by local health workers and their communities, as well as coordinating activities among local organisations that mobilise FCHVs to ensure that their services flourish in the future.

Abstract:

This thesis focuses on the transformation of healthcare services for the blacks in the former Transvaal during the period from the 1930s to 1990s. The thesis argues that over this period the healthcare of rural blacks from Union to Republican governments had incipient features of primary health care – haphazardly driven by progressive-minded individuals within the state, by missionaries, as well as other stakeholders, motivated by concerns over the socio-economic conditions of the blacks. Although the concept of primary health care did not exist in popular public health parlance during the Union era, prototypical concepts such as ‘native health’, ‘preventative health’ or ‘community health’ were used interchangeably to describe and formulate a variety of initiatives meant to deal with health challenges caused by diseases such tuberculosis, malaria, syphilis, HIV/AIDS and other poverty-related diseases. A brand of ‘Community-Orientated Primary Care’ was popularised by Sidney Kark to refer to his initiatives at the Pholela Health Centre, a model primary health care project of the early 1940s. The model inspired the establishment of similar health centres in the rural areas of the Transvaal and other provinces, as part of the broad sweep of social medicine from the 1940s. This thesis also argues that the road to the full embrace and implementation of primary health care was characterised by many challenges emanating from the state’s reluctance to support its implementation, as that had the potential of upsetting the policy of racial discrimination. Opposition to the state’s reluctance to implement a national healthcare system based on the precepts of primary health care emerged and intensified from the time the National Party came into power in 1948. Aspects of the healthcare system of the former Transvaal were also uniquely influenced by some former medical students of the University of Natal Medical School who, from the late 1960s to the early 1970s started to use their newly acquired skills and experience to deliver community health care services in parts of the Transvaal. Although the historic Alma Ata Conference of 1978 added impetus to the popularity of the concept of primary health care, its full implementation in South Africa was wobbled by the reluctant apartheid state. As expected, primary health care became a battleground of political wrestling between the state and liberation movements and other stakeholders. It was only after the 1994 general elections that the concept was declared a national policy, to be prioritised by all government departments. Although several scholars have dealt with progressive healthcare initiatives during South Africa’s twentieth century, a focus on the rural Transvaal offers a new opportunity to revisit key developments in the country’s public health history, and to reflect on the layered and indeterminate nature of the emergence of primary health care, with particular emphasis on the contribution of educated African healthcare professionals and grassroots movements. Like the Pholela and the National Health Service Commission initiatives which have been covered extensively in the literature, a history of the development of the public health system in the Transvaal offers a vista to understand the colonial origins and changing fortunes of rural primary healthcare over the course of an eventful seven decades in South Africa.

Abstract:

The goal of this study was to review Maori oral health services utilising a kaupapa Maori framework. The aims of the study were to identify the issues in the development, implementation and operation of Maori dental health services within each of the three types of Maori health providers (mainstream, iwi-based, partnership). The three Maori oral health services are: (i) Te Whare Kaitiaki, University of Otago Dental School, Dunedin. (ii) Te atiawa Dental Service, New Plymouth. (iii) Tipu Ora Dental Service, in partnership with the School Dental Service, Lakeland Health, Rotorua. Method: A literature review of kaupapa Maori research was undertaken to provide the Maori framework under which this study was conducted. The kaupapa Maori methodology utilised the following criteria: (i) Rangatiratanga: The assertion of Maori leadership; (ii) Whakakotahitanga: A holistic approach incorporating Te Whare Tapa Wha; (iii) Whakapapa: The origins and development of oranga niho; (iv) Whakawhanuitanga: Recognising and catering for the diverse needs of Maori; (iv) Whanaungatanga: Culturally appropriate forms of relationship management; (v) Maramatanga: Raising Maori awareness, health promotion and education; and (vi) Whakapakiri: Recognising the need to the build capacity of Maori health providers. Ethical approval was granted by the Otago, Bay of Plenty and Taranaki Ethics Committees to undertake interviews and focus groups with Maori oral health providers in Dunedin, Rotorua and New Plymouth. Information was also sought from advisors and policy analysts within the Ministry of Health. A valuable source of information was hui korero (speeches and/or discussion at Maori conferences). An extensive literature was undertaken including an historical search of material from private archives and the now defunct Maori Health Commission. Results: An appropriate kaupapa Maori methodology was developed which provided a Maori framework to collate, describe, organise and present the information on Maori oral health. In te ao tawhito (the pre-European world of the Maori) there was very little if any dental decay. In te ao hou (the contemporary world of the Maori) Maori do not enjoy the same oral health status as non-Maori across all age groups. The reasons for this health disparity are multifactorial but include the social determinants of health, life style factors and the under-utilisation of health services. In order to address the disparities in Maori oral health, Maori providers have been very eager to establish kaupapa Maori oral health services. The barriers to the development, implementation, and operation of a kaupapa Maori oral health service are many and varied and include access to funding, and racism. Maori health providers have overcome the barriers through two strategies: firstly, the establishment of relationships within both the health sector and the Maori community; and secondly, through their passion and commitment to oranga niho mo te iwi Maori (oral health for all Maori). The outcome of this review will contribute to Maori health gain through the recognition of appropriate models and strategies which can be utilised for the future advancement of Maori oral health services, and hence to an improvement in Maori oral health status. Conclusion: This review of Maori oral health services has found that there are oral health disparities between Maori and non-Maori New Zealanders. In an effort to overcome these disparities Maori have sought to provide kaupapa Maori oral health services. Whilst there is a diversity in the provision of Maori oral health services, kaupapa Maori services have been developed that are appropriate, effective, accessible and affordable. They must have the opportunity to flourish.

Abstract:

We assessed the health care reform and its effects on household’s welfare such as access to health care and household economic burden. We used descriptive analysis on 2002-2011 Ministry of Health and OECD Health Statistics. The main result is about using health care. Access to health care increased after health care reform in Turkey. Number of applications to health care service server and its units rose. On the other hand, financial burden of health care on household’s budget decreased number of applications. The main result percentage of not consulting a specialist even needed to consult a specialist but did not during the past 12 months is %4.9 in 2003 and %19.9 in 2010. To improve health care access, policy makers should improve public sector provision of health care, increase social security benefit packages and protect poor and vulnerable.

Abstract:

Evidence-based practice is often encouraged in most service delivery settings, yet a substantial body of research indicates that service providers often show resistance or limited adherence to such practices. Resistance to the uptake of evidence-based treatments and programs is well-documented in several fields, including nursing, dentistry, counseling, and other mental health services. This research brief discusses the reasons behind provider resistance, with a contextual focus on mental health service provision in school settings. Recommendations are to attend to resistance in the preplanning proposal stage, during early implementation training stages, and in cases in which insufficient adherence or low fidelity related to resistance leads to implementation failure. Directions for future research include not only attending to resistance but also moving toward client-centered approaches grounded in the evidence base.

Abstract:

In this paper, we explore the use of a governance diaries methodology to investigate poor households’ interactions with authority in fragile, conflict and violence-affected settings in Mozambique. The research questioned the meanings of empowerment and accountability from the point of view of poor and marginalised people, with the aim of understanding what both mean for them, and how that changes over time, based on their experiences with governance. The study also sought to record how poor and marginalised households view the multiple institutions that govern their lives; providing basic public goods and services, including health and security; and, in return, raise revenues to fund these services. The findings show that, even if the perceptions and, with them, the concepts of empowerment and accountability that emerged do not differ significantly from those identified in the literature, in terms of action and mobilisation there are distinctions. In our research sites we found that people rarely mobilise, even faced with prevalent injustices and poor basic service provision. Many claim to be ‘unable’ to influence or force ‘authorities’ to respond to their concerns and demands.

Abstract:

Approximately 2.69 million tuberculosis (TB) cases—about a quarter of the global cases—were reported in India on The Global TB Report 2019. There are nearly half a million “missing” cases every year, either undiagnosed, unaccountable, or inadequately diagnosed and treated. This paper analyzes the magnitude of TB transmission and the quality of interventions in urban areas and migrant populations in India. It identifies key factors and areas that need to be further strengthened for the country to achieve its goal of eliminating TB by 2025. The study is aligned with the government’s objective to strengthen the provision of comprehensive primary health care services for the urban poor as part of India’s National Strategic Plan, 2017–2025.
