    11th Street Family Health Services of Drexel University: A University–Community Partnership

    Chapter

    This chapter describes the Drexel University College of Nursing and Health Professions (CNHP) public health nursing faculty spearheaded the now 17-year-old partnership. The 11th Street Family Health Services center, with its large patient base, broad outreach, and innovative model is a primary component of the college’s mission. CNHP is committed to leading the way in improving health and reducing health disparities through innovative education, interdisciplinary research, and community-based practice initiatives. After the Future Search conference, the 11th Street Partnership for Community Based Care (PCBC) was established. CNHP-based program to improve the health status of residents in a public housing community has grown into a center that is now a nationally recognized transformative and integrated model of comprehensive care. The staff continues to refine programs and share best practices with others who are engaged in similar community efforts, and nurses will continue to lead the way in this university-community collaboration.

    The 1908 Italian Earthquake

    Chapter

    This chapter focuses on a disaster that resulted in international cooperation at a time of political conflict. The vastness of the destruction and the number of persons who remained under the rubble shook the world’s public opinion; for the first time, a natural disaster emergency became an event of political significance in the field of international relations. Local responses to the earthquake augmented external assistance. Because the tsunami rendered the Messina harbor unusable, Italian Royal Navy torpedo boats could not immediately be used for helping the population. After the initial rescue work, the priority became disease control and vaccination of the entire population of southern Italy. Many nurses volunteered to help the survivors. Despite the difficulties of transferring people to the disaster area, volunteer teams consisting of nurses, doctors, engineers, technicians, workers, priests, and teachers provided their assistance to survivors in the earthquake zone.

    The 1913 Flood in Ohio (USA)

    Chapter

    This chapter examines the American Red Cross response to the 1913 floods in the Ohio-Mississippi river basin through the events that occurred in the cities of Dayton, Hamilton, and Cincinnati. It describes these Red Cross innovations in disaster response, the professional and gender-based barriers the nurses faced, and the approaches the nurse-responders used to achieve their goals. In order to understand the nursing response to the 1913 Ohio flood, it is helpful to place the nurses’ innovation within the organizational context of the American Red Cross in relation to changes in leadership, national status, and programs. The Red Cross nurses worked parallel to the military, their major interface being the use of martial law passes so that they could travel when and where they were needed, given the nighttime curfews. The overwhelming suddenness of disaster has led modern societies to plan a sufficient response before the disaster event occurs.

    The 19130 Zip Code Project: A Journey to Our Neighborhood

    Chapter

    The 19130 Zip Code Project at the Community College of Philadelphia (CCP) started as a curriculum innovation: the CCP Department of Nursing’s response to the national shift toward community-based health care. The project resulted in the refocusing of the nursing curriculum and the development of partnerships with CCP’s neighbors in the 19130 zip code. It also is an excellent example of a nurse-managed wellness center without walls. The Zip Code Project has put down deep roots in the neighborhood and in the nursing curriculum. It has produced a community-based model for educating local health professionals and a service-learning model for enhancing health service delivery by local agencies. The faculty arranged community-based clinical experiences for nursing students in the neighborhood surrounding CCP. Although CCP sits in the middle of the zip code, faculty knew little about community-based health care services in the community.

    Abnormalities Found on Radiographs of the Chest

    Chapter

    There are many abnormalities that can be identified on a chest radiograph. This chapter introduces some of the more common findings seen on a chest radiograph including atelectasis, pulmonary edema, pleural effusion, consolidation, pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum, hyperaeration, masses, and COVID-19. The more radiographs one reviews and evaluates, the more findings of normal variants and abnormalities one will be able to identify. Comparing one’s interpretation with a radiologist’s final reading is an excellent way to improve one’s skills. If there is something identified or not identified by the radiologist, examine the films again. One may be able to visualize the area noted in the report, which will help one to identify subtle findings on other images. Establishing a working relationship with radiology colleagues will also enhance one’s knowledge and proficiency.

    Abnormal Uterine Bleeding

    Chapter

    Any uterine bleeding that occurs outside of the normal menstrual parameters for duration of bleeding, amount of flow, cycle length, and timing is considered abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB). Many different terms have been used historically to describe symptoms or diagnoses of AUB. This chapter lists the terms used to describe AUB. Due to this lack of consistency in nomenclature used for AUB, a new classification system was adopted by the Fédération Internationale de Gynécologie et d’Obstétrique (FIGO) in November 2010 and updated in 2018. FIGO classification system guides clinical evaluation for AUB and recognizes that a woman may have one or more entities causing AUB and/or have entities that are symptomatic and do not contribute to the bleeding. The chapter presents a tabulation of the differential diagnoses for AUB categorized by age. It also discusses the clinical management of AUB.

    About the Examination

    Chapter

    The progressive care certified nurse (PCCN®) examination is written and administered by the AACN and accredited by the NCCA. This exam is designed for RNs and APRNs who practice in progressive care units or provide direct care for acutely ill patients. The PCCN examination is a 2.5-hr exam with 125 multiple choice questions. Of the 125 multiple choice questions, 100 are scored, and 25 are sample test questions to be used on future exams. Test covers two main topics: Clinical Judgment and Professional Caring/Ethical Practice. Clinical Judgment accounts for 80% of the questions and covers each body system, and its related diagnostic tests and nursing interventions. The examination cost for AACN members is $195, and the cost for nonmembers is $300. After successfully passing the PCCN examination, certification is active for 3 years. Online renewal is available to active PCCN certifications 4 months before the scheduled renewal date.

  • Abreactions, Blocked Processing, and Cognitive InterweavesGo to chapter: Abreactions, Blocked Processing, and Cognitive Interweaves

    Abreactions, Blocked Processing, and Cognitive Interweaves

    Chapter

    Many Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) clients process in a straightforward manner with few direct therapeutic interventions on the part of the clinician. For others, however, processing to completion without any additional interventions is unlikely. The reasons for blocked processing are varied and multifaceted. This chapter explores guidelines for facilitating abreactions, strategies for blocked processing, and applying more proactive interventions for achieving full treatment effect. These interventions are intended to mimic a natural progression toward resolution. Clinicians who are trained in EMDR therapy are already familiar with many of the strategies particularly the strategies for clients who present with affect regulation difficulties or with complex trauma. Clinical supervision and/or consultation in these cases are always recommended. This chapter explores, three types of client responses—normal, overaccessing, and underaccessing—and strategies the clinician can apply when the client displays either low or high levels of emotions and/or blocked processing.

    Access to Clean Water and the Impact on Global Health: An Interview With Gary White, CEO and Cofounder, Water.org

    Chapter

    This chapter presents an interview between Gary White, chief executive officer and founder of Water.org related to water access and sanitation. It describes the issues around water and sanitation, and discusses successful strategies for increasing access to clean water. Water Partners International was very much about working directly with local partners on the ground to implement infrastructure through water projects and sanitation. The challenge is the cost of access to water. Everyone supports the idea of access to safe water and sanitation; everybody’s in favor of it. The dangers of contaminated water, especially in an immunocompromised individual, are overwhelming. The more that nurses, particularly in developing countries, view water as a medical intervention and sanitation as a medical intervention the more proactive nurses will be in addressing some of waterborne diseases. Access to clean water and sanitation is necessary to ensure freedom from preventable disease.
