Abstract (sommario):
The “Unified National Health System” of Nicaragua was established in 1979, in an attempt to transform some of Latin America's worst health indices. This system, based on the stated principles of planning, regionalization, public participation, and primary care, has prioritized the development of health professions training programs appropriate to its special needs and principles. Public Health and Epidemiology training was inaugurated in 1982. A new campus of the School of Medicine was opened in 1981, increasing the number of medical students by a factor of five. Formal residency training (never before available within the country) in primary care specialties has been established. Training for allied health personnel has been formalized in several fields, with the establishment of the Polytechnical Institute of Health. The rapid increase in number and size of training programs has created a tremendous need for educational resources both human and material. This article reviews the status of health personnel training in Nicaragua today, the integration of these programs into planning for the health system, and problems arising from their rapid appearance.

Abstract (sommario):
This study questions the validity of the assumption that the workplace culture andexperiences of health personnel are largely similar. The study compares nurses,occupational therapists, physiotherapists and speech therapists concerning theirperceptions of professional issues within their own profession, and their perceptionsof professional issues within the medical profession. Respondents completed aquestionnaire containing 55 items referring to their own profession, and 55 itemsreferring to the medical profession. Six scales were derived from the large surveyinstrument addressing issues regarding status/cohesiveness of the profession, professionalrelationships, and the role of the patient in health delivery in the respondent?sprofession, and in the medical profession. Nurses emerged as different to other healthpersonnel on most dimensions. Few differences emerged among allied healthprofessionals. Physiotherapists were more positive than occupational therapists aboutthe status/cohesiveness of their profession, and regarded the contribution of the patientto health delivery as less important. Speech therapists did not differ significantly fromoccupational therapists on any dimension.

Abstract (sommario):
ABSTRACT Objectives: To determine influenza vaccination rates and attitudes toward vaccination among emergency department health care workers at 4 Ontario teaching hospitals. Methods: During the influenza season of 1999–2000 a confidential 28-item survey was distributed to emergency physicians and residents, nurses, respiratory therapists, and other allied health care workers at the emergency departments of 4 London, Ontario teaching hospitals. Results: Of 426 surveys distributed, 343 were returned, for an overall response rate of 80.5%. The mean age of respondents was 38.5 years (standard deviation = 8.3), 74.3% were female, and 86.6% were non-smokers. The overall vaccination rate was 37.0% (95% confidence interval, 31.9%–42.4%). Vaccination rates were 45.9% for respiratory therapists, 35.3% for emergency physicians and residents, 34.5% for nurses and 27.1% for other allied health care workers (p = 0.083). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age ≥41 and a chronic medical condition were positively associated with influenza vaccination (p < 0.05). Close to one-third of respondents (28.3%) believed that adverse affects were common, 51.6% believed vaccination was effective, 52% would support a program to improve vaccination rates among emergency department staff, and 24.4% would support mandatory vaccination for this population. Only 26.8% believed that patients were at increased risk of contracting influenza from emergency department staff, but 58.3% perceived that emergency department staff were at increased risk of contracting influenza through exposure to patients. Conclusions: In this study, only 37% of emergency department health care workers were immunized against influenza, with chronic illness and older age being the only 2 significant correlates. Strategies to improve emergency department health care worker attitudes toward influenza vaccination for themselves and to increase vaccination rates for this population should be developed.

Abstract (sommario):
This research is a case study in the sociology of professions. It reports on the Australian allied health professions, a group that has rarely been the subject of sustained research. The central purpose of the research is to examine the impact of local workplace organisation in Australian general hospitals in the public sector on the position of the allied health professions and their autonomy. Further, the research seeks to unbundle the competing claims about the utility of alternative organisational approaches and to examine how the allied health professions negotiate inter-professional relationships as a consequence of particular organisational approaches. The research draws on Eliot Freidson's professional dominance theory (medical dominance theory) as the underpinning theoretical framework. Medical dominance theory portrays the allied health professions as inevitably subject to medical dominance and subordination, a proposition which is critically appraised through a contemporary analysis of local workplace arrangements. To address these issues three models of allied health profession organisation were identified; the classical medical model, division of allied health model and the unit dispersement model. The research method involved a comparative case study approach and included fifty-three interviews, document analysis, observation strategies and key informants over a two year period. Data collection was guided by seventeen themes of inquiry which were identified from a multiple methods approach as likely to be important in a comparative analysis of the organisation of the allied health professions.

Abstract (sommario):
Aim: To examine the adoption of CCDS by paramedics, including the impact of CCDS on paramedic role and practice. Methods: Systematic review of CCDS in emergency care followed by a cluster-randomised controlled trial (C-RCT) of CCDS with a qualitative component involving 42 paramedics at two study sites. Results: 19/20 studies identified for inclusion in the systematic review were from the Emergency Department setting, with no studies from prehospital care. The focus of the studies was on process of care (19/20) rather than patient outcomes (5/20). Positive impacts were reported in 15/19 (79%) process of care studies. Only two patient outcome studies were able to report findings (one positive, one negative). Results relating to CCDS implementation were reported as an ad hoc response to problems encountered. In this C-RCT paramedics used CCDS with 12% of eligible patients (site one: 2%; site two: 24%). Intervention paramedics were twice as likely to refer patients to a falls service as those in the control group (usual care) (relative risk = 2.0; 95% Cl 1.1 to 3.7) although conveyance rates were unaltered (relative risk = 1.1; 95% Cl 0.8 to 1.5) and episode of care was unchanged (-5.7 minutes; 95% Cl -38.5 to 27.2). When CCDS was used patient referral to falls services was three times as likely (relative risk = 3.1; 95% Cl 1.4 to 6.9), and non-conveyance was twice as likely (risk = 2.1; 95% Cl 1.1 to 3.9) and overall episode of care fell by 114 minutes (95% Cl from 77.2 to 150.3). Reasons given for not using CCDS included technical problems, lack of integration, it was not sophisticated enough to influence decision making. Paramedics adapted when and how they used CCDS to suit context and patient condition. Conclusion: There is little existing evidence in relation to CCDS use in the emergency care setting, and the prehospital emergency care setting in particular. Studies of CCDS undertaken in emergency departments have shown benefit, particularly in relation to process of care. The C-RCT found that CCDS use by paramedics was low, particularly at site one, but use was associated with higher rates of patient referral and non-conveyance, and shorter episodes of care. There were encouraging signs that CCDS can support a new decision making role for paramedics. The study provides useful lessons for policy makers, practitioners and researchers about the potential benefits of CCDS and the challenges to adoption of new technology in emergency prehospital care.

Abstract (sommario):
Demand for the emergency medical technician (EMT) is 2 times greater than that of all other occupations. Sustainability of ambulance services (AS) personnel is dependent upon the recruitment of EMTs into the industry. The purpose of this multiple case study was the exploration of the recruiting strategies that AS administrators used to increase the number of EMTs. Herzberg's 2-€factor theory of motivation was the conceptual framework for this study. The data collection instrument included semistructured interviews with 6 AS company executives in southeastern New Mexico and southwestern Texas. Secondary data and document from each state's emergency medical services personnel and websites related to EMTs were reviewed. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis alignment between the recruiting strategies and the conceptual framework. Two key themes emerged: AS administrators have minimal data-€driven recruitment tracking mechanisms and recruiting strategies for EMTs must align with the motivational aspects of growth, advancement, recognition, and responsibility in the AS business to entice people into the industry. The implications of this study for social change include the potential for AS executives to identify recruiting strategies they might use to increase the recruitment of EMTs to meet patient and community needs for medical transport while reducing the demand for EMTs nationwide.

Abstract (sommario):
The Healthcare Quality Strategy for NHS Scotland, relates its overall vision of healthcare quality to six dimensions of care as: Safe, Efficient, Effective, Equitable, Timely and Patient Centred. Patient Centred Care also underpins many subsequent policies such as the management of Long Term Conditions (Scottish Government, 2008) and the Chief Medical Officers Realistic Medicine report (Barlow, et al., 2015) Leadership styles and associated policies and procedures are often assumed to inhibit or encourage the delivery of quality Patient Centred Care and the NHS invests millions of pounds per year in Leadership training. At a clinical team and management level there are behaviours and initiatives that can arguably have positive and negative impacts on the ability of individual practitioners to provide quality Patient Centred Care. However there have been no attempts to empirically test the association between (good) Leadership and quality Patient Centred Care. Without any evidence of such a relationship, NHS investment of substantial resources may be misguided. Additionally, much of the focus of research in both Leadership and Patient Centred Care has focused on medical practitioners and nurses. There is little research that focuses on the impact of allied health professionals' (a term describing 12 differing health care professional groups representing over 130,000 clinicians throughout the United Kingdom) practice on the quality of person centred care and how this is affected by Leadership structures and styles. This study aimed to explore whether there is a direct or indirect link between (transformational) Leadership and achieving the delivery of high quality Patient Centred Care (PCC) in allied health professional (AHP) practice. Aim The aim of this thesis was to explore whether it was possible to empirically demonstrate a relationship between Leadership (good or bad) and Patient Centred Care, and to do this in relation to Allied Health Professional practice. Research questions I. Is there a relationship between Transformational Leadership and Patient Centred Care in AHP practice? II. How do AHP’s conceptualise Leadership and its impact on their ability to deliver PCC? III. Do local contexts influence the ability of leaders to support Patient Centred Care? Study one Study one was designed to answer research question one: exploring the relationship between transformational Leadership and Patient Centred Care using survey design. Two groups of Allied Health Professionals were selected to take part in the study: Podiatrists and Dieticians. Clinical team leaders from across 12 Podiatry teams and 12 Dietetic teams completed a survey composed of measures of transformational Leadership and self-monitoring. Clinicians from these teams were also be asked to complete questionnaires on their perception of their clinical leaders’ transformational Leadership skills. This allowed comparison of self-assessed Leadership and team assessed Leadership. Clinicians were also asked to collect patient experience measures from 30 of their patients. Study Two Study Two was designed to answer research questions 2 and 3: how do AHPs conceptualise Leadership and how do they view the link between Leadership and their ability to deliver Patient Centred Care; and how might local context impact on professional Leadership and therefore its potential to enable or inhibit Patient Centred Care. In depth interviews were conducted with clinicians and clinical team leaders to explore the barriers and facilitators to effective Leadership, teamwork and the provision of quality care. Interviews were conducted with 21 Podiatrists and 12 Dieticians and analysed using a framework analysis approach. Results I. Is there a relationship between Patient Centred Care and transformational Leadership in AHP practice? The theory that there is a link between transformational Leadership and Patient Centred Care was confirmed. A significant relationship was discovered for the dietetics group linking Transformational Leadership with patient centred quality of care measures. There was also a relationship in the podiatry group that was suggestive of a relationship. II. How do AHP’s conceptualise Leadership and its impact on their ability to deliver PCC? AHP’s in both groups had broadly similar conceptualisations of Leadership and both groups played down the role of Leadership in the delivery of Patient Centred Care. A far more salient factor in achieving the delivery of high quality Patient Centred Care for the AHP’s interviewed was professional autonomy. III. Do local contexts influence the ability of leaders to support Patient Centred Care? A number of contextual issues related to both Patient Centred Care and Leadership were identified from the qualitative analysis. These were centred on systemic factors, relating to management and bureaucracy, and individual factors, such as relationships within teams. In Podiatry a major shift in the context of care was ongoing during the study, namely a greater emphasis on encouraging patients to self-care. This affected the relationships between patients and Podiatrists, and Podiatrists and managers, in a way that Podiatrists felt it negatively impacted on their ability to provide quality Patient Centred Care. Conclusion A weak relationship was observed between Transformational Leadership styles and the delivery of Patient Centred Care in two Allied Health Professional groups. Professional autonomy was identified as being more likely to facilitate delivery of person centred care. Organisational issues and intervening policy directives can impact on the delivery of Patient Centred Care, regardless of Leadership. Recommendations Further work exploring the link between Leadership and Patient Centred Care is required. The concept of professional autonomy should be fostered within Leadership programs to enhance delivery of Patient Centred Care. The impact of individual policies, such as moves towards more self-care, on quality criteria need to be more fully considered. Whilst such policies may make care more efficient, there may be negative consequences for other quality care criteria, such as Patient Centred Care.

Abstract (sommario):
AbstractNorway is generally regarded as having good opportunities for biobank research because of Biobank Norway—its national infrastructure of biobanks—which represents one of the world’s largest existing resources within biobanking. It covers both consented population-based and disease-specific clinical biobanks. However, the regulatory framework in Norway for biobanking is fragmented, which makes navigating the legal landscape challenging.The Personal Data Act (PDA) implements the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and a few adjustments were made in the national health legislation in order to bring it into line with the GDPR. The Health Research Act (HRA) enables the use of biobanking and personal data in research with and without the consent of individuals. There are some disagreements about the changes brought about by the GDPR when it comes to research on biological material that includes personal data. When implementing GDPR Article 89, it was emphasised that the Data Protection Officer (DPO) has an important role even though the research ethics committee has allowed the use of data (the regional committee for medical and health research ethics (REC)). This has created conflicts. This article highlights key issues and ambiguities related to the GDPR and national legislation, and the relationship between the two.

Abstract (sommario):
ZusammenfassungDie globale Verbreitung sozial geteilter Bildinhalte und die konzernorientierte Ausrichtung von Online-Plattformen, Messenger-Diensten und Sozialen Medien haben den Stellenwert der Ernährungskultur weitreichend verändert. Der vorliegende Beitrag untersucht das Ernährungshandeln und das Ernährungsverhalten in online vernetzten Kommunikationsräumen unter anderem vor dem Hintergrund einer gesundheitssoziologischen Wissensintervention. Dabei liegt ein besonderes Augenmerk auf der Gegenüberstellung zweier Perspektiven der Bildkommunikation von Nahrungsmitteln. Aus einer medientheoretischen Perspektive bildet ein subjektorientierter Ansatz einen gängigen Ausgangspunkt, da er die Bildkommunikation von Nahrungsmitteln anhand neuer Medien, wie Instagram, untersuchen soll. Da sich in diesem Kontext allerdings zeigt, dass die situative Ausgestaltung der Bildkommunikation an Relevanz gewinnt, soll diesem Ansatz eine zweite Perspektive erweiternd gegenübergestellt werden, die beleuchtet, welche Bildkommunikation überhaupt für alle Beteiligten, warum an Relevanz gewinnen kann. Dazu soll der subjektzentrierten Perspektive die der EC gegenübergestellt werden, die von einem zugrunde liegenden Situationalismus ausgeht. Im ersten Ansatz, dem sich auch Pierre Bourdieus Habitustheorie zuordnen lässt, ist Wissen an Gruppen oder Personen gebunden. Im zweiten Ansatz der EC wird die Gültigkeit von Wissen und die Wertigkeit von Personen, Objekten und Kommunikation hingegen immer an die Situation gebunden. Ziel dieser spezifischen situations- und konventionenbezogenen Sichtweise soll es sein, die Perspektive der Medientheorie dahingehend zu erweitern, dass insbesondere auch die Pluralität der Anwendung von Medien und der Gültigkeit ihrer Inhalte situativ und bei der gleichen Person erklärt werden kann.Im Beitrag wird schließlich aufgezeigt, dass die technisch-medialen Dispositive der Online-Plattform Instagram auch dazu beitragen, dass sich Konventionen dauerhaft fixieren können. In diesem Sinne bildet das mediale Dispositiv soziale Konventionen aus, die auf situative Erfahrungen einwirken und diese prägen. Es sind nicht die situativen Erfahrungen der beteiligten Anwender, die das mediale Dispositiv individualisieren, sondern die technisch-medialen Dispositive generieren eine neue Erfahrbarkeit von situativen Erfahrungen, die als grundsätzlich medialisiert wahrgenommen werden.

Abstract (sommario):
AbstractThis chapter argues that the contemporary image of the tropics as a site of jeopardy and trial offered an effective framework to preach the Basel Mission’s pious code of conduct to a broader audience. The personal regimen recommended in the medical literature on tropical hygiene around 1900 focussed on asceticism, self-discipline and temperance. These measures were congruent with the proscriptions of Pietist purity, underlining the continued belief in a connection between morality and disease. This puritan dimension of tropical hygiene allowed the Basel medical missionaries to position themselves as experts on the matter and mould scientific and colonial debates with their religious logic. They enjoyed extensive moral authority among the colonial public, not only advising how the sick should be treated but also prescribing healthy diets, behaviours and lifestyles. Although many of the debates surrounding tropical hygiene were carried out in medical journals and other specialised publications, their influence ranged far beyond the disciplinary boundaries of tropical medicine, gaining currency in wider social and political contexts.

Abstract (sommario):
Cold has impact to every person as on allied forces as well on enemy forces. The topicality of the study is based on the analysis of the experience of military campaigns in cold environments in the history of war and the emphasis on the importance of preventive measures that reduce the influence of low temperature as a natural environmental factor on the tactical readiness of troops. The aim of the study was analyses of cold environment impact on outcome (personnel losses) of military campaign in historical aspect, characterized the main health problems of personnel. We provided theoretical analysis of military campaigns` from ancient time till nowadays. Results of our study showed that realisation of preventative measures as well as planning and providing troops` activities in low temperature environment is one of the greatest challenges for leaders and commanders of military operations; in case of failure environmental factors played crucial role to wars` outcomes, battles` results and could lead to great disaster for military units and armies. The most important conclusion is the temperature of surrounding condition is one of essential factor for combatant’s survival, for activity of the personnel in low temperature surrounding, for combat capacity of military personnel and military unit. Timely identification of low-air temperature environment hazard slop down personnel losses in warfare. The most important conclusion stressed that assessment of cold weather, prevent and manage cold injuries allow keep combat capacity and fulfil the mission. Results of our study shown significance the effective program of military force health protection that included adequate logistic as well with nutritional supply. Commander authority in management personnel readiness is essential, physical preparedness, practical skills, and training of personnel in cold environment were important in pre-mission phase of campaign. Research results shown that cold (low temperature) impact as environmental risk factor must be identified and carefully assessed before military action.

Abstract (sommario):
A cross sectional descriptive study was carried out to determine the level of stress and its associated factors among Allied Health Science undergraduates in University of Sri Jayewardenepura. A convenient sample of 150 Allied Health Science undergraduates who follow Bachelor of Science in Nursing (B.Sc.N), Bachelor of Pharmacy (B. Pharm) and Bachelor of Science in Medical Laboratory Science (B.Sc. MLS) degree programmes were selected as the study sample. A self-administered questionnaire with both open ended and closeended questions was used as the research tool. The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS) developed by Cohen et al. (1994) was used to evaluate students’ perceived level of stress(PLS) during the last month. Irrespective of the year of study, B.Sc. Nursing undergraduates have scored higher level of perceived level of stress which is statistically significant in a chi-square test when comparing with B. Pharm and B.Sc. MLS undergraduates. Perceived level of stress had no significant association with sociodemographic factors including sex. Increased academic work load and financial difficulties were the prioritized factors associated with stress. The lack of personal freedom, conflicts with colleagues, unsupportive staff at the clinical placement and lack of support services were also reported as the other factors associated with the level of perceived stress among undergraduates.

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract Like most business sectors, the oil and gas industry had to adapt to virtual meetings and working from home in the new reality of the global COVID-19 pandemic. This has introduced new complications to completing activities that traditionally require personnel to be on site and collaborate in teams. This paper reviews digital initiatives that allow workers to collaborate virtually on EHS (Environmental, Health, & Safety)-driven practices such as safety audits and engage remotely for improved morale. Specifically, the paper reviews the recent implementation of digital connectivity solutions for remote workers to join virtual ‘Safety Walk and Talks’ in processing facilities and offshore platforms. It also reviews programs to promote connectivity between workers, including virtual town halls and online coffee-hours conversations. While these digitally enabled remote engagement initiatives are still relatively new, they have quickly provided benefits to the safe operation of offshore assets and the morale and mental wellbeing of the workforce. The first virtual ‘Safety Walk and Talk,’ which was conducted in Indonesia, brought together a cross-functional team that was split between a few in-person attendees and a majority of people joining virtually from remote locations. While the digital connection was not seamless, this first-of-its-kind virtual meeting proved the concept. The process improves EHS metrics by minimizing travel of teams to and from the site. It also keeps more people out of potentially hazardous work environments and minimizes exposure to coronavirus or other health hazards. Other digital connectivity measures such as virtual town halls and worker-submitted videos have increased engagement between management, workers, and teams located around the globe. A virtual ‘Coffee Roulette’ program, in which workers spin a virtual wheel that connects them with other employees for informal chats, has allowed people to make new connections and feel less isolated.

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract For an upstream oil and gas company, avoiding an offshore COVID-19 outbreak while executing four different offshore projects poses a huge challenge, particularly in a country experiencing a daily COVID-19 test positivity rate over 20%. Even minor mismanagement of the quarantine process can lead to an offshore COVID-19 outbreak, with the risk of shutting down campaigns and severely impacting business objectives. The challenge is therefore to avoid an offshore COVID-19 outbreak, ensuring well-being of personnel during the quarantine period and managing quarantine related costs, including COVID-19 test costs. To ensure effective quarantine management, a new approach was created that applied a combination of medical assessments, Health & Safety (H&S) and security measures. Quarantine management was led by a special task force responsible for ensuring the readiness of transportations, rooms, PCR tests, as well as overall compliance to quarantine rules. In compliance with government regulations and WHO recommendations, another complimentary approach was applied that sequestered personnel who tested positive in an isolation room. Effective quarantine management was established with the assistance of the company Business Continuity Management Team (BCMT). The company was able to complete four different major offshore projects with no offshore COVID-19 outbreaks. During these operations, over 1,000 personnel were quarantined and tested with a 5.37% positivity rate at the pre-work quarantine site. Confirmed cases were managed in full compliance with government regulations. The result of this effective quarantine management system, has allowed the company to achieve scorecard performance goals while delivering all four of the major offshore work-scopes, as per the original business plan. This paper discusses quarantine management as part of business continuity management covering medical assessment, H&S and security measures amidst a national COVID-19 pandemic. These programs were applied in an adaptive method-based risk assessment, which based on evidence base approaches, during frequently changing government regulations.

Abstract (sommario):
Abstract. Introduction. When using personal protective equipment (PPE) against power-frequency electric fields (PFEF), there is a problem associated with the deterioration of the humans thermal state during a workshift when working in a hot environment. The shielding and shunting elements of the PPE increase the weight of the PPE and has an additional thermal load on a person working in a hot environment and so have a negative impact on his thermal state. The change in the indicators of the persons’ thermal state can be considered as a criteria for the impact of a complex of factors that determine the body heat exchange with the environment. Also, in addition to the impact of the PFEF and the hot environment, workers are exposed to physical exertion associated with moving around the area and lifting weights, which additionally burdens their functional state. Purpose. To study the thermal state of a person using PPE from the PFEF, when performing physical work at different thermal load levels of the environment. Materials and methods. Four practically healthy men were involved as volunteers. Before and after the experiment, the initial skin temperature indicators were recorded in 11 areas of the body surface as well as the tympanic membrane temperature and the heart rate (HR). During physical activity and rest, subjective heat and humidity sensations were also recorded every 5 minutes on the 11 areas of the body surface and the temperature of the inner surface of the clothing was determined. Before and after the experiment, the body weight of the naked volunteer and the weight of all the items included in the PPE kit were recorded. Results and discussion. During physical work at WBGT 28.0°C, ΔQts reached the permissible level (2.6 kJ/kg) after 10 minutes from the start of the work, and when working in WBGT 23.3°C – after 20 minutes, which indicated the highest rate of overheating of the human body at a higher level of the thermal load. The moisture sensitivity score at WBGT of 28.0°C by the end of the working period was 3.3. Stabilization of the HR was observed at a lower level of the thermal load, but at WBGT 28.0°C there was a HR continuous increase, which indicates a greater tension of the thermoregulation mechanisms. Conclusion. The obtained data allowed us to establish the fact of the negative impact of the use of EP-4(0) kits on the humans’ thermal state. When using the EP-4(0), it is necessary to regulate the time of continuous work in the open air: no more than 2 hours with a subsequent rest for at least 30 minutes in order to compensate heat loss as a result of using such PPE, which hinders heat and moisture exchange.

Abstract (sommario):
This paper addresses the experience, knowledge, and expertise that Duratek has acquired while performing environmental remediation at two large low-level radioactive waste (LLRW) disposal facilities in the United States. Environmental remediation and related waste disposal has been the company’s primary line of business line since it was founded in 1969. It has disposed of more than half of the low-level radioactive waste generated in the U.S. over the past thirty years, working with almost every radioactive waste generator in the country. That experience has allowed the company to develop a unique understanding of safe, efficient, and cost-effective LLRW disposal methods. The paper also tracks the history of waste disposal technology at the Barnwell Disposal Site in South Carolina and the U.S. Department of Energy Environmental Restoration Disposal Facility (ERDF) at Oak Ridge, Tennessee. In particular, it describes the evolution of trench design, operations, and disposal procedures for these facilities. It also discusses the licensing of one the most active waste disposal sites in the U.S., the success of which has been assured to customers and stake-holders because of: • Well trained personnel who are dedicated to the design, construction and operation of safe and efficient disposal facilities; • Commitment to strong community relations; • Comprehensive knowledge of proven disposal strategies, technologies, and management practices; • Capability and readiness to respond rapidly to routine and emergency situations; • Established record of comprehensive and responsive communications with regulatory authorities; • Commitment to quality, compliance and personnel health, and safety; and • Financial systems that ensure long-term facilities management.

Abstract This technical paper provides the result of utilizing MPD technology for drilling and cementing a 127 mm production liner withing the Zadonian horizon D3zd in an exploratory well of the Prohorovskoe field. The previous wells drilled with a conventional approach in the field had complicated issues such as circulation losses and well control. It was complexified with high hydrogen disulfide concentration in reservoir oil which was a health hazard to a site personnel. As a result, to eliminate all complications, resources and operational time were needed. To prevent and eliminate complications in a long wall, core drilling and well completion, managed pressure drilling (MPD) and cementing technology with semi-automatic control system was applied. The project is unique as such complicated jobs with the core drilling and cementing with MPD were executed for the first time in The Komi Republic. MPD approach allowed to figure out bottomhole safe conditions and maintain ECD within a required pressure window. It is necessary to notice that a part of the section was core drilled. Knowing the window between pore and fracture pressures safety limits, a run-in-the-hole design with further cementing job was optimized. The execution was done flawlessly without circulation losses and well control issues. In comparison to a previous well in the Prohorovskoe field, MPD allowed to shorten loss circulated mud volume from 2 2215 m3 to 0 m3 and avoid non-productive time. Through accomplished goals and lessons learned, new grounds to well owners and well services in a field development stage are broken.

Abstract (sommario):
Specialist nursing practice in mental health, addiction and intellectual disability (MHAID) comprises a growing sector of public health demand, and yet this field is one of the least popular career pathways for student nurses (Happell et al., 2019a; Owen, 2021). International studies and personal observations by members of the research team as nurse educators suggest two key factors at play. First, student willingness to work in MHAID specialist roles is impacted by entrenched stigma and discrimination against people who experience mental distress, addictions and intellectual disabilities. Second, students have voiced their perceptions of specialist mental-health nursing as less important than general nursing. Working in MHAID is commonly seen as carrying little prestige, variety, challenge or opportunity for skill development; worse, such findings from surveys of final-year student nurses’ employment preferences have remained relatively unchanged over the last 20 years, at least (Wilkinson et al., 2016). With employers desperate for specialist MHAID staff, and education providers charged with meeting industry needs, how can nursing programmes begin to combat this bias and bring about attitudinal change? This paper describes a pilot initiative with Year 3 undergraduate student nurses in one Te Pūkenga subsidiary, which we believe shows considerable promise for a wider roll-out across the tertiary healthcare-education sector. A hui supported by Whitireia’s Community of Practice for Mental Health and Addiction within the School of Health and Social Services allowed students to interact with multiple industry stakeholders: District Health Board (DHB) partners; graduates working in the mental health and addictions sector, experts by experience; and the postgraduate New Entry to Specialist Practice in Mental Health teaching team. A subsequent survey evaluation confirmed the positive impact of the initiative regarding altering negative stereotypes of nursing roles within MHAIDs and increasing the number of students who may consider specialising in these areas, post-graduation.

Abstract (sommario):
This paper documents how utilizing available source term information, integrated safety management, and associated engineering, administrative and personal protective equipment (PPE) controls are used in concert to perform work safely. Two field projects consisting of 1) a room containing both hazardous (e.g., hydrofluoric acid) and radioactive constituents and 2) a former reaction vessel containing approximately 568 liters (150 gallons) of lime sludge and technetium-99 (Tc-99) were organized using the Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Integrated Safety Management System (ISMS). This system allowed the project teams to control work-related decisions based on their knowledge, experience, expertise, and field observations. The information and experience gained from each project stage and rehearsals contributed to modifying subsequent entries, further emphasizing the importance of developing hold points and incorporating lessons learned. Furthermore, selecting the appropriate PPE is based on providing an adequate level of employee protection relative to the task-specific conditions and hazards. PPE is categorized into four ensembles based on the degree of protection afforded, e.g., Levels A (most restrictive), B, C, and D (least restrictive). What is often overlooked in preparing an ensemble is that the PPE itself can create significant worker hazards, i.e., the greater the level of PPE, the greater the associated risks. Furthermore, there is confusion as to whether a more “conservative approach” should always be taken since Level B provides the same level of respiratory protection as Level A but less skin protection. Additional information summarizes the Occupational Safety and Health Administration regulations addressing Level A versus Level B, and provides justification for selecting Level B over Level A without under-protecting the employee. The hazards and the chemical nature of hydrofluoric acid provide qualitative evidence to justify Level A. Once hydrofluoric acid is removed as a source term constituent, PPE performance is evaluated against the remaining chemical inventory. If chemical breakthrough from direct contact is not expected to occur and instrument readings confirm the absence of any hazardous vapors, additional skin protection afforded by wearing a vapor-tight, totally encapsulated suit is not required. Therefore, PPE performance and instrument data provide quantitative evidence to justify Level B. These projects exemplify that using guidance provided by DOE’s ISMS and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) demonstrates how a detailed and thorough planning process integrating safe work practices and commitment to teamwork can result in the safe and effective completion of very complex and highly hazardous projects.

Abstract (sommario):
Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) studies the air quality inside different types of environments and relates it to the health and comfort of occupants. Understanding and controlling common pollutants indoors can help in decreasing effects and the risks associated with these pollutants. Unhealthy indoor environment could lead to serious problems in people health and productivity. According to ASHRAE, 80–90% of personal time is spent indoors. As a result, indoor air pollution has gained a lot of interest and the number of studies on occupant health inside buildings grew very significantly in the last decades. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of indoor air quality inside an educational buildings on occupants’ comfort and performance. Various indoor pollutant such as, Carbon dioxide, Carbon monoxide, Volatile organic compounds, Particulates, and formaldehyde, are measured. The indoor air contaminants will be detected using IAQ measurement devices. The value of the pollutants is compared to maximum allowed values in ASHRAE standard 62.1. In addition, the occupant thermal comfort is reported using two indices which are Predicted Mean Vote (PMV) and Predicted Percentage of Dissatisfied (PPD). The relationship between the performance and the indoor air quality is also discussed. The results will discover the sources of the indoor air pollutants and accordingly suggestions will be given toward improving the indoor air quality. The final results showed that the IAQ is generally in a good condition for the majority of classrooms except for the TVOC which was always at high concentrations. Also, for some classrooms, the CO2 level and the relative humidity were exceeding the maximum limit. Regarding the thermal comfort, all the classrooms do not comply with ASHRAE Standard 55-2013. Therefore, they are not thermally comfortable.
