What are some possible examples of living in survival mode? How does living in survival mode contribute to health disparities?

DISCUSSION ESSAY

Poverty is the number one predictor of poor health status. To achieve health equity in our society, we need to truly understand what it means to be living in poverty. Throughout the semester we will be exploring poverty and how to best work with this population as you become a health professional.

The Introduction section of the book discusses how poverty forces families into survival mode. Answer the following questions in your discussion response.

  • What are some possible examples of living in survival mode (minimum of two examples)? For instance, people may resort to criminal activity to get what they need to survive or earn money.
  • How does living in survival mode contribute to health disparities?

Cite references used in your response. This is a DISCUSSION so please interact and post responses to your classmates’ reply. You will be graded on your response and your interaction with classmates as discussed in the discussion rubric.

Discuss the impact of empirical, theoretical, ethical, and legal issues relevant from the generation of knowledge in the specialist area for paramedic practice. Demonstrate intellectual flexibility by answering questions in relation to their journal article and through a critical discussion.

The presentation

Finding/using dissertation templates – what do I need to do?
Below is a list of the content that will be delivered, provided through Blackboard, and where you will need to actively, and independently source support:
1. Find several published systematic reviews to use – these are excellent examples/templates of exactly what is expected for component 1.
a. Choose 1 (or more) of the, roughly, 28,800 published paramedic systematic reviews to use as a template (search Google Scholar).

2. Look at the “Author Guidance” from the journal you have chosen – this outlines the specific structure for the systematic review.
a. Search and find a systematic review published in that journal you have chosen, to use a template.

3. Use the detailed, universal checklist template for all systematic review types (the PRISMA checklist).

4. Find one of the many published systematic review protocols (these are published plans how to complete a systematic review).

5. Through the taught sessions we will provide a ‘live’ breakdown of a published systematic review – take notes!

6. A general structure is provided in the Module Guide – this is a rough outline.

7. A key lecture and video introducing all the above, where questions are asked and answered will be provided at the end of the module.
But…what about the Research Methods?

There is no escaping the research methods-bits. It is important to remember when completing your dissertation that you will need to know why you have chosen the processes / methods that you have. You’ll notice that this information is not traditionally reported in a published journal article – but you must still know it – and, importantly, you will be questioned about these processes for the poster-viva (see component 2).

Assessment Strategy / Criteria

Component 1 (50%): Summative assessment will be a 4,000-word systematic review which is focused on an area of paramedic practice, and written in the format of a specific, chosen paramedic journal. (The exception to the journal formatting style is that your maximum word count is set at 4,000 words, where most journals are 3,000- so you have an additional 1,000 words to play with.) Students will identify an answerable focused question related to paramedic practice and critically appraise relevant literature. The literature will then be synthesised and the implications for practice discussed. Assesses all learning outcomes. Please note, there is no allowance of 10% over. Tables/graphs in the results section are not included in the word count. The references cited in text are included in the word count.

Component 2 (50%): A 30-minute pre-recorded poster-viva derived from the student’s systematic review. The poster presentation will focus on the: 1. Clinical topic of the systematic review; 2. The research methods processes of conducting a systematic review. I have created a PowerPoint template that you may use, and edit, to complete this component.

Assessment Criteria
Students will be required to adhere to a standardised structured format with regards to the presentation of their project – as indicated by the chosen journal submission author guidelines.

Component 1 – The assignment will be assessed according to the student’s ability to:
1. Generate an appropriate focused question relevant to paramedic practice.
2. Demonstrate a comprehensive detailed knowledge of the specialist area of paramedic practice and question orthodox practice using balanced, logical and supported arguments.
3. Conduct an appropriate search strategy and select relevant studies for inclusion in the review.
4. Evaluate the quality of the selected studies using appropriate frameworks.
5. Extract, synthesise, appraise and evaluate data/evidence from diverse sources and make independent judgements.
6. Apply, analyse, and evaluate the impact of empirical, theoretical, ethical and legal issues relevant to the generation of knowledge in the specialist area for paramedic practice.
7. Adhere to the chosen journals author guidelines for presentation and referencing.

Component 2 – The assignment will be assessed according to the student’s ability to:
1. Provide a comprehensive overview and critical justification for the process that was undertaken in component 1.
2. Discuss the impact of empirical, theoretical, ethical, and legal issues relevant from the generation of knowledge in the specialist area for paramedic practice.

3. Demonstrate intellectual flexibility by answering questions in relation to their journal article and through a critical discussion.
4. Adhere to the School of Health & Life Sciences guidelines for presentation and referencing.

What strategies could be suggested for this older adult couple to enhance their quality of life? What community resources can they utilize?

CASE STUDY: An Older Immigrant Couple: Mr. and Mrs. Arahan

Mr. and Mrs. Arahan, an older couple in their seventies, have been living with their oldest daughter, her husband of 15 years, and their two children, ages 12 and 14. They all live in a middle-income neighborhood in a suburb of a metropolitan city. Mr. and Mrs. Arahan are both college educated and worked full-time while they were in their native country. In addition, Mr. Arahan, the only offspring of wealthy parents, inherited a substantial amount of money and real estate. Their daughter came to the United States as a registered nurse and met her husband, a drug company representative. The older couple moved to the United States when their daughter became a U.S. citizen and petitioned them as immigrants. Since the couple was facing retirement, they welcomed the opportunity to come to the United States.

The Arahans found life in the United States different from that in their home country, but their adjustment was not as difficult because both were healthy and spoke English fluently. Most of their time was spent taking care of their two grandchildren and the house. As the grandchildren grew older, the older couple found that they had more spare time. The daughter and her husband advanced in their careers and spent a great deal more time at their jobs. There were few family dinners during the week. On weekends, the daughter, her husband, and their children socialized with their own friends. The couple began to feel isolated and longed for a more active life.

Mr. and Mrs. Arahan began to think that perhaps they should return to the home country, where they still had relatives and friends. However, political and economic issues would have made it difficult for them to live there. Besides, they had become accustomed to the way of life in the United States with all the modern conveniences and abundance of goods that were difficult to obtain in their country. However, they also became concerned that they might not be able to tolerate the winter months and that minor health problems might worsen as they aged. They wondered who would take care of them if they became very frail and where they would live, knowing that their daughter had only saved money for their grandchildren’s college education. They expressed their sentiments to their daughter, who became very concerned about how her parents were feeling.

This older couple had been attending church on a regular basis, but had never been active in other church-related activities. The church bulletin announced the establishment of parish nursing with two retired registered nurses as volunteers. The couple attended the first opening of the parish clinic. Here, they met one of the registered nurses, who had a short discussion with them about the services offered. The registered nurse had spent a great deal of her working years as a community health nurse. She informed Mr. and Mrs. Arahan of her availability to help them resolve any health-related issues.

Reflective Questions

  1. What strategies could be suggested for this older adult couple to enhance their quality of life?
  2. What community resources can they utilize?
  3. What can the daughter and her family do to address the feelings of isolation of the older couple? 4. What health promotion activities can ensure a healthy lifestyle for them?
