Abstract:
In 1993, then OSU President John Byrne declared that: “All Extension Service faculty, county agents as well as specialists, will be assigned academic colleges, and will have an academic appointment in the appropriate college.” The selection of the academic home would involve a mutual agreement between the individual and the department and would take into consideration the faculty member's academic training, experience, and work assignment. The implementation of this decision was completed by July 1995. In the College of Agricultural Sciences, this assignment of faculty to academic homes was accommodated by adding county agents to the faculty of existing departments. The Dept. of Horticulture faculty numbers nearly doubled, with an increase from 34 to 58. The department head is now very involved in the annual review and salary administration of extension field faculty. Campus-based faculty are now involved in all of the hiring, promotion, and tenure decisions for extension field faculty and vice versa. Field faculty participate in departmental decision making. The change in the number and diversity of faculty in the department is a unique effort to unify programmatic focus for extension, research, and teaching at OSU. As a work in progress, many issues are being addressed including full faculty participation in the decision-making process, communication, evaluation of scholarship, and building departmental community. Successes, pitfalls, and challenges ahead will be discussed and illustrated.

Abstract:
This study examines associations among publication number, National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding rank, medical school research rank, and otolaryngology department ranks of otolaryngology applicants during the 2018-2019 match cycle. Information regarding 2018-2019 otolaryngology applicants was collected from Otomatch.com and verified via department websites. Information was also collected regarding 2018 NIH funding rank and 2020 US News & World Report research rank of medical schools and otolaryngology departments. T tests and chi-square analyses were performed. Top 40 NIH funding rank, top 40 medical school research rank, and home institution department rank were separately associated with more publications and higher rates of matching into highly reputed otolaryngology departments (all P < .01). Furthermore, applicants who matched into ranked otolaryngology departments averaged significantly more publications ( P < .01). Prospective otolaryngology applicants should take into account NIH funding rank, medical school research rank, and otolaryngology department rank, as they are associated with matching into high-ranking institutions.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTThis paper examines approaches to public investment appraisal as theyare currently recommended in the British Treasury and implemented byevaluation units within the Department of Health, Department of Transport and the Home Office. The evidence suggests that spending departments have reacted to the pressure for increased selectivity in their expenditures by adopting a heterogeneous blend of appraisal techniques, including financial analysis, cost-effectiveness and option appraisal, withcost-benefit analysis eventually playing a minor role. The imposition of cash limits rations capital expenditures. When these constraints bite departments differently, either a unique social discount rate for projectappraisal is inappropriate or the rations themselves are giving wrong signals to the departments The departments do not have an incentive todevote time and effort to cost benefit analysis and other techniques of a more limited scope are implemented.

Abstract:
Objectives – To ascertain the annual number of users who were discharged home after visits to the emergency department, grouped by age, gender and number of visits during the calendar year, and to assess whether an increasing number of visits to the department predicted a higher mortality. Methods – This is a retrospective cohort study, at the emergency department of Landspitali University Hospital, Reykjavik capital city area, Iceland. During the years of 1995 to 2001 19259 users visited the emergency department, and were discharged home and they were follow-up for cause specific mortality through a national registry. Standardised mortality ratio, with expected number based on national mortality rates was calculated and hazard ratios according to number of visits per calendar year using time dependent multivariate regression analysis were computed. Results – The annual increase of visits to the emergency department among the patients discharged home was seven to 14 per cent per age group during the period 1995 to 2001, with a highest increase among older men. The most common discharge diagnosis was the category Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings not elsewhere classified. When emergency department users were compared with the general population, the standardised mortality ratio was 1.81 for men and 1.93 for women. Among those attending the emergency department two times, and three or more times in a calendar year, the mortality rate was higher than among those coming only once in a year. The causes of death which led to the highest mortality among frequent users of the emergency department were neoplasm, ischemic heart diseases, and the category external causes, particularly drug intoxication, suicides and probable suicides. Conclusions – The mortality of users of the emergency department who had been discharged home turned out to be higher than that of the general population. Frequent users of the emergency department had a higher mortality than those visiting the department no more than once in a year. Since the emergency department serves general medicine and surgery patients, not injuries, the high mortality due to drug intoxication, suicide and probable suicide is notable. Further studies are needed into the diagnosis at discharge of those frequently using emergency departments, in an attempt to understand and possibly prevent this mortality

Abstract:
The South African public sector is important for the sustainable growth and development of the country. One of its major responsibilities is to ensure that all citizens have access to and receive services. Achieving a high degree of productivity is an important objective of public service organisations across the world, given the pressure to deliver quality public goods and services within the limits of ever-increasing resource constraints. The South African public service is no exception to this global phenomenon. The challenge of the public service is therefore to continuously improve performance in order to meet citizens’ needs. The focus of this study is the challenges facing service delivery in the Department of Home Affairs. The aim of this study is to explore and describe the challenges that hinder full transformation and maximum customer/client satisfaction in regards to service delivery offered by the Department of Home Affairs. The objectives are: to identify the challenges experienced by staff offering services to clients at the Department of Home Affairs and to identify the problems experienced by clients who receive services at Home Affairs. The study employs a qualitative research methodology and uses observation and individual interviews as data collections tools. The findings from both sources indicate that the clients were not happy with the quality of service they receive at the ID section. Amongst other things, they complained about lack of information, lack of guidance, unprofessional staff, and technical problems that they had experienced. However, the staff also encountered a number of challenges, including being short staffed, lack of resources, and system problems as the system is new to them and they have not received enough training before it was implemented.

Abstract:
The framework of this study is based on the reforms of human resource leave management in the field of public administration for the South African public sector. The researcher’s interest lies in the increasing complexity of leave management development pertaining to policy-making, administrative processes and efficiency in the South African public sector. This study aimed to assess leave management at the Department of Correctional Services (DCS) and the Department of Home Affairs (DHA). The DCS and DHA form part of the seven departments in the Justice, Crime Prevention and Security Cluster. The study aimed to assess the coping strategies of the two departments especially with the services rendered in a tight schedule and constraints. Furthermore, this study was also influenced by the findings of the investigations led by the Public Service Commission (PSC) which aimed to determine effectiveness of leave management in the South African Public Service. The objectives of this study were realised by means of a literature review and research instruments. The literature review was consulted to understand the context of leave management. This study applied the qualitative technique for reporting data. The interviews were used to ascertain the processes of managing leave whereby two sets of questionnaires were developed. The interviews posed the questions to the management of the DCS and DHA and the employees of the two departments. The management of annual leave entitlements is important to maintain the wellbeing of the employees, an organisation’s productivity and to help minimise associated financial implications incurred. The study found that the accrual of leave by public servants is a practice with significant financial implications for the state as employer. If leave is not managed and controlled effectively it can result in substantial losses in terms of unwarranted expenditure. The financial and other implications of leave prompted an investigation by the P S C aimed at determining how effective leave is managed in the Public Service. The study also found that reasonable measures were put in place for managing leave in the public sector. The office of the Health Risk Manager was developed to manage the process for approving the leave of absence as it relates to temporary incapacity leave, permanent incapacity leave and the occupational diseases. The empirical surveys conducted indicated that the two departments are well equipped for managing leave as they are required by labour law. The practices of planning, communication, control measures were also proven to be utilised in the two departments. The two departments render their services in a constrained manner, however the management has attempted to ensure that service delivery is not compromised when some of the members are on leave. Leave entitlements forms part of the accountability framework for the public sector especially when leave is attached to financial resources which are part of public money. In conclusion this study concludes that the public sector must consider the employee assisted systems for applying for leave. Such practices could also enhance the administrative backlogs encountered when recording leaves. Application of leave through such systems may also improve the productivity of the leave officers and reduce the cost of administrative resources.

Abstract:
The hospital emergency department (ED) is a critical source for health care amid a complex healthcare system in the United States. It is the gateway to care for a broad range of people, arriving from a variety of locations. With this wide reaching net and a decreasing trend in hospital beds, EDs throughout the United States are experiencing overcrowding. ED crowding has various tactical and strategic facility management impacts ranging from facility occupancy issues to adverse health outcomes. Among other factors, recent research has cited the sharp increase in ED visits over the years and ED patient boarding as key contributors to crowding. Home hospital care is a model in which health care is delivered at an individual’s home as a substitute for hospital-level inpatient short-term acute care. Clinical research has shown home hospital to be an effective care model for select illnesses presenting frequently to EDs, such as congestive heart failure, community acquired pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and cellulitis. While there exist distinct clinical and social criteria for which delineate eligible individuals, home hospital care models have been linked with the potential to free inpatient beds. The overarching objective of this study is to investigate the relationship between home hospital care and ED crowding. To achieve this objective, the study examined the relationship between home hospital care and ED crowding, specific to ED boarding performance at a large, urban, teaching hospital facility. A methodology for identification of potential home hospital patients was used through clinical and social criteria, and a scale for the range of clinical eligibility rates was established for the five suitable illnesses. The study modeled patient flow and bed demand, and utilized computer simulation modeling to assess the impact of home hospital care on ED boarding performance. Various models were simulated to represent different home hospital intervention types. The models incorporated home hospital through an ED Referral program, Inpatient-Transfer Referral program, Community Referral program, and a fully integrated home hospital program. Three scenarios were run for each model to assess practical possibilities for the utilization of the freed bed hours from a home hospital program. This research contributes insight and understanding of home hospital’s impacts on ED crowding. The insight from this study quantifies the effects of a home hospital program on ED boarding and inpatient bed demand. The modeling study is contributes an analytical understanding of the impacts that home hospital could potentially have on crowding, which could prove useful in the struggle against ED congestion. This understanding helps to provide a more thorough understanding of home hospital, and could aid in an organization’s decision-making process of whether to implement a program. The presented modeling methodology for analyzing home hospital and ED crowding can also be used as a model format for researchers and practitioners for analytical purposes in future studies.

Abstract:
Background: The overuse of the emergency department (ED) for non- critical patients has been associated with overcrowding and a rise in healthcare cost. Green Valley Fire Department (GVFD) has created a program, Fire-Based Urgent Medicals Service (FBUMS) with a nurse practitioner (NP). Patients can call 9-1-1 or the ""NP hotline"" and request to be seen by the NP instead of being immediately transported to the hospital via ambulance. Purpose: The purpose of this project is to evaluate the impact of the nurse practitioner led FBUMS, on ED visits and ambulance transports. Methods: A survey was mailed to all persons, age 18 and older, who were seen by the NP with FBUMS between February 2017 and March 2017. The survey asked about the reasons for contacting GVFD, the type of treatment received, and whether they went to ED after treatment. Data analysis: Descriptive statistics including frequencies, percentages, means and standard deviations were used to analyze each of the answered survey questions in Microsoft Excel©. Results: Surveys completed (n=42). The majority, 39 (92.9%) stated they did not receive care at the ED within 72 hours following their appointment with the NP, three (7.1%) stated they did. By dramatically decreasing transport to the hospital and associated ED treatment, it is estimated to have saved approximately $53,425 in ambulance costs and $54,210 in ED treatment for a total savings of $99,632.52. Conclusion: A Fire-Based Urgent Medical Service led by a nurse practitioner decreased emergency room visits and ambulance transports.

Abstract:
Aim. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship of advance care planning protocols with hospitalization, rehospitalization, and emergency department use rates in U. S. home health agencies (HHA). Background. Since 2003, CMS has required HHAs to report on quality outcomes such as hospitalization, rehospitalization, and emergency department use rates, made publicly available online. Advance care planning (ACP) is a conversation about beliefs, goals, values, future treatment choices, and designation of a surrogate decision-maker, that someone has in advance of a health crisis. Most existing studies on ACP have taken place outside of HHAs among populations with serious illnesses such as HIV/AIDS, cancer, dementia, and end stage renal disease. Meanwhile, the U.S. home health population is living longer with chronic conditions such as pulmonary and cardiovascular illnesses. Effective January 1, 2016, the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Innovation implemented the Home Health Value-Based Purchasing (HHVBP) Model among home health agencies (HHAs) in nine states representing each geographic region in the United States. Agencies in these states began competing on value in the HHVBP model, and reimbursement rates began to be tied to quality performance (innovation.cms.gov). As part of HHVBP, CMS implemented an additional process-level mandate requiring them to report on ACP, though this data is not publicly available. It is currently unknown how ACP protocols in HHAs may affect agencies’ overall rates of acute care services use. Methods. Electronic surveys about ACP protocols were distributed to HHAs. Existing data about demographics, diagnoses, hospitalization, rehospitalization, and ED use were accessed online via CMS websites. Descriptive and regression analyses were conducted using the electronic survey results and the existing data. Results. Associations between the variables were observed and compared to the hypotheses. Statistical significance was found in the relationship between ACP protocols and hospitalization, where one increased the other increased. Several trends were found: Agencies with increased total percentage of cardiac and pulmonary diagnoses tended to have increased hospitalization rates; agencies with increased average age of patients tended to have increased ACPP scores; and agencies with increased proportion of Black patients tended to have higher hospitalization rates.

Abstract:
This research was undertaken to investigate the challenges faced by employees at the Home Affairs Department, the transport Department and the Department of Education at King Williams Town in the Eastern Cape Province. A quantitative approach was used in this research. The sample consisted of 100 respondents of whom 98 returned completed questionnaires. The answers of the respondents were the data of this study and these were analyzed and interpreted in respect of the hypotheses of the research. The research involved the collection of detailed career, personal and structural perceptions of 98 employees. The data was used to establish the disparity among employees, from lower management to top management. It was found that even though there was a problem of discrimination in the olden days there has been a change in the sense that employment equity, affirmative action and diversity management have been introduced since 1994.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter examines the wider policy context and administrative systems for child migration to Australia in the period 1948-1954. With stronger concerns about child migration being expressed by some professional and voluntary organisations in Britain, in 1949 the Home Office began a process of drafting regulations for the emigration of children from the care of voluntary societies. The chapter examines how the process of developing these regulations was delayed through a complex bureaucratic process, with a final draft of the regulations not completed until 1954. Concerns about the legal limitations of these regulations and their effective power in safeguarding child migrants once overseas contributed to a subsequent decision in the Home Office not to introduce them. This decision was also informed by an independent review of child migration to Australia by John Moss, published in 1953, which offered a broadly positive view of this work. The chapter considers why Moss—a former member of the Curtis Committee—took this view, and how broad policy standards such as the Curtis report were, in practice, interpreted and implemented in different ways.

Abstract:
The paper presents how the play of preschool children and their families was supported in Serbia during the Covid-19 lockdown. Firstly, we outline the approach to play nurtured by the Department of Preschool Pedagogy in Serbia and how play, understood in this way, might be important for resilience on an individual and social level. Further, we will focus on the joint action of teachers from the Department of Preschool Pedagogy and students on the undergraduate course Children’s Play and Creativity in creating a resource, The Treasury for Common Play between Children and Adults, during the Covid-19 lockdown. The Treasury is an illustrated publication with suggestions for different playful situations and activities that children and parents can undertake at home while in isolation. It was promoted to the families in cooperation with policymakers and preschool teachers. Using interpretative phenomenological analysis on twenty-four written feedbacks of the families from the territory of Belgrade on using The Treasury, we tried to understand the nature and quality of the common play experiences of parents and children during home isolation. We interpreted the research findings focusing on openness towards the world, creative potential and relational nature. Based on the research findings, as well as our participation in working with students, educational policymakers and practitioners, we make two recommendations at the end of this paper for improving educational practice: cultivating play in a joint, systemic effort and establishing educational practice on creative potential.

DiGrande, Laura, Sue Pedrazzani, Elizabeth Kinyara, Melanie Hymes, Shawn Karns, Donna Rhodes, and Alanna Moshfegh. Field Interviewer– Administered Dietary Recalls in Participants’ Homes: A Feasibility Study Using the US Department of Agriculture’s Automated Multiple-Pass Method. RTI Press, May 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.3768/rtipress.2021.mr.0045.2105.

Abstract:
Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the feasibility of administering the Automated Multiple-Pass Method (AMPM), a widely used tool for collecting 24-hour dietary recalls, in participants’ homes by field interviewers. Design: The design included computer-assisted personal interviews led by either a nutritionist (standard) or field interviewer. Portion estimators tested were a set of three-dimensional food models (standard), a two-dimensional food model booklet, or a tablet with digital images rendered via augmented reality. Setting: Residences in central North Carolina. Participants: English-speaking adults. Pregnant women and individuals who were fasting were excluded. Results: Among 133 interviews, most took place in living rooms (52%) or kitchens (22%). Mean interview time was 40 minutes (range 13–90), with no difference by interviewer type or portion estimator, although timing for nutritionist-led interviews declined significantly over the study period. Forty-five percent of participants referenced items from their homes to facilitate recall and portion estimation. Data entry and post-interview coding was evaluated and determined to be consistent with requirements for the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. Values for the number of food items consumed, food groups, energy intake (average of 3,011 kcal for men and 2,105 kcal for women), and key nutrients were determined to be plausible and within reasonably expected ranges regardless of interviewer type or portion estimator used. Conclusions: AMPM dietary recall interviews conducted in the home are feasible and may be preferable to clinical administration because of comfort and the opportunity for participants to access home items for recall. AMPMs administered by field interviewers using the food model booklet produced credible nutrition data that was comparable to AMPMs administered by nutritionists. Training field interviewers in dietary recall and conducting home interviews may be sensible choices for nutrition studies when response rates and cost are concerns.

Keane, Claire, Sean Lyons, Mark Regan, and Brendan Walsh. HOME SUPPORT SERVICES IN IRELAND: EXCHEQUER AND DISTRIBUTIONAL IMPACTS OF FUNDING OPTIONS. ESRI, February 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.26504/sustat111.

Full text
Abstract:
A new statutory scheme for the provision of home support services is currently being developed by the Department of Health. Research has shown that access to home support services varies across the country. The new scheme aims to tackle this issue to ensure equitable access to home support services nationwide and is part of wider reform of Ireland’s health and social care systems as envisaged in the Sláintecare report and Department of Health action plans. Publicly funded home support services in Ireland are currently provided free of charge for recipients, unlike long-term residential or nursing home care, which involves a contribution from residents. In 2019, the HSE’s Older Persons’ Services provided care to 53,000 people at a cost of €440 million. It is anticipated that demand for home support services may increase under the new scheme, for example if unmet demand is met or if the new scheme results in more people being able to remain in their own home, substituting away from long-term residential care. Any increased demand would result in an increased cost, which may also rise as the population ages. This report examines the possible introduction of co-payments for home support services. We focus on the likely Exchequer impact of a range of different funding scenarios along with the distributional, poverty and inequality impacts of such charges. Due to data limitations, and the fact that the majority of home support services are provided to older age groups, we focus on those aged 65 years and over. Regarding co-payments we examine the impact of flat-rate charges for users, regardless of means, as well as co-payments for home support recipients above a variety of income levels. The tapering of payments is also examined to ensure that individuals just over a specific income threshold would see co-payments gradually increasing as their income rises. We also consider the capping of co-payments so that those needing a high number of home support hours would not potentially face very high costs.

Abstract:
This Rapid Evidence Scan examined the effectiveness of virtual hospital models of care. While no reviews evaluated a complete model, tele-healthcare only and tele-healthcare with remote telemonitoring interventions demonstrated similar or significantly better clinical or health system outcomes including reduced hospitalisations, readmissions, emergency department visits and length of stay, compared to usual care, including those delivered without home visits or face-to-face care. The use of the Internet showed mixed but promising results. The strongest evidence was for cardiac failure, coronary heart disease, diabetes and stroke rehabilitation. Nurses played a central role in home visiting, providing telephone support and education. However, the studies were heterogeneous and the results should be interpreted with caution.
