An evaluation of health promotion workshops for nursesEdwards, Joy January 1977 (has links)
The purpose of this research project was to investigate the effectiveness of the two-hour and the one-day Health Promotion Workshops offered to nurses in British Columbia as part of a four month pilot project. The Registered Nurses' Association of British Columbia (RNABC) employed a nurse as special project director to develop and present Health Promotion Workshops to nurses. The goals of the workshop were:
1. To sensitize nurses to their own needs to optimize their own health.
2. To sensitize nurses to their role of sensitizing other to their need to optimize their own health.
3. To motivate nurses to make changes in their personal health behaviours.
4. To motivate nurses to make changes in their role as health promoters.
The workshops were offered to all RNABC chapters throughout the province. Seventeen chapters chose the two-hour workshop and 5 chose the one-day workshop. Eight of the two-hour and three of the one-day workshop groups were used for the evaluation. The workshops were evaluated by observation, discussion with some participants, and with responses obtained through questionnaires. The questionnaires were designed to obtain information regarding knowledge, awareness, perceptions of the workshop, and behaviours of the nurses related to physical activity. Control groups were chosen by randomly selecting from the RNABC chapters, nurses who had not attended the workshop.
Using analysis of variance, the control groups were found to be equivalent to the workshop groups prior to each session when comparing the questionnaire responses.
Multivariate analysis of variance was done to determine differences between the workshop groups and their appropriate control groups six weeks following the workshops. The results indicated that:
1. There was a significant increase in reported exercise behaviours for both the two-hour and one-hour workshop groups.
2. There were no significant differences in reported habits relating to physical activity.
3. There were no significant differences in reported behaviours as a health promoter.
Analysis of variance was done to determine significant differences among means for the knowledge test scores of each group. The results indicated that both workshop groups had a significantly higher mean score when compared to their control groups.
Seventy-five percent of the participants reported that they identified changes they would like to make in their own fitness and forty-five percent indicated they were able to accomplish changes in this area. Seventy percent indicated they had an increased awareness of their role as health promoters in their work.
It was concluded that the Health Promotion Workshops were effective in 1) sensitizing nurses to their own needs to optimize their own health,
2) motivating nurses to make changes in their health behaviours, and
3) sensitizing nurses to their role as health promoters. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Nursing, School of / Graduate

Vaccines and the anti-vaccinationist rationaleHand, Cameron M. January 2012 (has links)
Thesis (M.A.)--Boston University / Vaccines have been one of the greatest modern achievements within the fields of medicine and public health. Since their development they have prevented millions. from becoming infected and saved countless lives. Over the years though there have been various instances of anti-vaccinationist movements, which will raise concerns about vaccine safety but then eventually fade away once the virtues of the vaccine are proven greater than the possible opposed reaction or side effect. These movements have create significant drops in vaccination rates regionally and have put many at unnecessary risk of infection. However, over the last decade there has been a general increasing public distrust of vaccinations, which has continued to propagate even after the initial concerns were addressed.
This paper aims to evaluate if there is significant justification for the current anti-vaccinationist movement within modernized societies by examining the proposed and eventually discredited link between autism and the measles-mumps-rubella vaccine that was initially suggested in the 1998 Wakefield et al. paper in The Lancet. This study will also evaluate opposing studies on the same to determine if any remaining concerns of a link between autism and the vaccine are justified while also evaluating the anti-vaccinationist rationale even though researchers have presented an overwhelming amount of scientific evidence showing the safety and efficiency of the vaccinations. Finally this study will look into how public health organizations can attempt to better efficiently deal with such movements in the future. The research for this paper is based on the analyzation of multiple recent research articles, as well as the evaluating trends obtained from public health records. [TRUNCATED]
