摘要:

The Community Health Aide Program is the Indian Health Service's answer to the provision of care to 45,000 Alaska Native people living in remote areas of the state. Community health aides are local people who live and work in their villages. They offer health services from emergency to preventative care with the help of their referral physician, who may be up to 1,300 miles away. Nurse practitioners play an important role in the training and supervision of community health aides. This article gives an overview of the program, its successes and problems, with implications as a health care delivery model for care in other underserved areas of the United States.

摘要:

This study used an experimental design to test the question, “Does ice reduce the pain‐distress children experience with injections?” One half of the 38 preschool children had ice applied to the preimmunization site for 30 seconds. The remaining children received the injection without the extra intervention. Measures included the Global Mood Scale, pulse rate, Oucher scale, and Faces scale. The results failed to show that ice reduces children's pain‐distress with injections. Reasons for the failure are discussed, with comments on the various measures and suggestions for further study in this area of child nursi

The study was conducted by interviewing a Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, Old Order Amish family. The data focused on five areas of inquiry: (a) care of elderly family members, (b) health practices, (c) home births, (d) death, and (e) health insurance. This study revealed that the Old Order Amish have health beliefs and practices that are unique to their culture.
