"Climate Change & Public Health: What is the role of primary health care?","Emily Stratford","Haliburton Kawartha Pine Ridge District Health Unit","Stephen Hill",TP_4872,2019,Online,"Haliburton County, City of Kawartha Lakes",,,"Climate change is rapidly altering the world and has a direct impact on human health. Health systems must, therefore, be equipped to handle these changing health needs and be able to adapt as the climate continues to change. Primary care providers are in a unique position to both administer and promote healthcare. When primary care providers and public health units work in collaboration, the health impacts of climate change may be managed with increased effectiveness and adaptability. A literature review was conducted to gather literature on paramedic, emergency department, and family physician adaptations to the health impacts on climate change, with special consideration given to vulnerable populations and public health unit collaborations. The primary care providers researched could all benefit from formalized climate change education and training as it relates to human health. They may also be able to facilitate better health adaptations to climate change, with public health units, by participating in data collection to assess the current health impacts of climate change within a given jurisdiction. Promotion of safe health practices regarding climate change is another way primary care providers and public health units can collaborate to adaptively manage climate change health impacts. There are a number of vulnerable populations to climate change health impacts, including those of low socioeconomic status, children and infants, and the elderly. Overall, a lack of Canadian literature on climate change health impacts demonstrates a need to conduct further research domestically, and to assist public health units in their research.",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"Care-givers,climate change,Emily Startford,Haliburton Kawartha Pine Ridge District Health Unit,health care,outreach,public health,social services,Stephen Hill",https://database.ulinks.ca/files/original/2a69312bfbdcb7890d0112c32cd392c3.pdf,,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0

Health/Medical Studies",,"The paper examines the development and preservation of Ontario's first Red Cross Outpost at Wilberforce. In outlining the history of the Outpost, it highlights the strength of the individuals in the region and their collective commitment to the Outpost that has become a symbol of their unity. For 30 years, the determination of the community and the skills and independence of the serving nurses kept the Outpost in operation. Covering the vast terrain between Bancroft to the east and Haliburton Village to the west, the Outpost nurse provided her services and, in turn, created a unique bioregion. The work of some of these individuals is reflected in personal reminiscences.
The paper concludes with a description of the work of the Wilberforce community and surrounding area in preserving the historical building as a museum once its days of operation were over.",U-Links,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"health care,local history",https://database.ulinks.ca/files/original/9dc57f48659d78254e46dae2a610dc47.pdf,,"Trent University Bioregionalism Program (1990-2000)",1,0

Continuing evaluation of HHHS and health care needs in the Haliburton Highlands. Expands on TP-393.","Life and health care are influenced by living in a rural community. The community is an important source of information about what services are needed and what existing services need improvement. The current study posed 12 questions, covering general demographic information, the availability of family physicians, the role of the nurse practitioner, the adequacy of present health services, and the importance of health care services in the next 5 to 10 years. 1013 telephone numbers were chosen at random from the Haliburton Highlands section of the 2004/2005 telephone book to take part in the telephone survey, resulting in 89 responses. All survey responses were translated into numeric data and the data were analyzed using SPSS software. The frequency counts and percentages were calculated and arranged from the most adequate or important health care needs to the least adequate or 3 important. In addition, Chi-Square analyses were used to determine the gender and age differences in health care needs.
The percentage of all participants who felt a particular health services was adequate ranged from a high of 80.4% for emergency services such as emergency room, 911, and EMS (ranked #1) to a low of 19.3% for family physician (ranked #16). The percentage of all participants who indicated a particular health services as an important health service ranged from a high of 96.6 % for emergency services such as emergency room, 911, and EMS (ranked #1) to a low of 21.6 % for services for substance abuse (ranked #16). The three most important services for the future in Haliburton County were identified as emergency services, family physicians, and dental care services. While both emergency services and dental care services were ranked high in adequacy and importance, family physicians were ranked high in importance and low in adequacy. This suggests that the recruitment and retention of family physicians and/or nurse practitioners should be a high priority.","Trent University",,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"health,health care,Social and Health Studies",https://database.ulinks.ca/files/original/89035fde4793222ab53249e77d4f7621.pdf,,"Trent University - Community Based Research",1,0

"Beyond the Physical: An evaluation of Cottage Dreams","Chreptyk, Erin; Fryer, Julia","Cottage Dreams

Department: International Development Studies",TP-562,2007,"U-Links Office and online",Ontario,"Evaluating a program for cancer survivors","This evaluation examined the effectiveness of the program, the benefits it offers to participants, and the role of the program within the complementary, integrated care approach to healing and recovery.","Cottage Dreams is a unique recovery initiative which offers cancer survivors and their supporters a week stay at a cottage in Ontario that have completed their cancer treatment in the past 9 months. The Cottage Dreams staff desired an evaluation that would provide them with information pertaining to how the program facilitated the healing and recovery process of past participants. Evaluators from Trent University designed an evaluation that would examine the effectiveness of the program, the benefits it offers to participants, and the role of the program within the complementary, integrated care approach to healing and recovery. The evaluation consisted of 32 in-depth, open-ended phone interviews with past program participants. The main findings from the research, which were positive in nature, pertained to aspects of healing and recovery that the week at the cottage afforded visitors. Those aspects of healing and recovery which were identified by participants were: a will to live which entails a change in outlook or perspective, being in an environment which is away from everyday life and cancer, being in a natural setting of wildlife and environment, and having time to make emotional connection with others. Each of these elements is a fundamental component within a complementary, integrated approach to healing and recovery and adheres to the Cottage Dreams objectives.
Included in the report are findings about the program itself, which were also positive. Past participants were appreciative of the non-discriminatory nature of the program, the organization’s professionalism, and many were touched by the generosity of cottage donors and the Cottage Dreams staff. The evaluators feel that Cottage Dreams plays an important role in the cancer healing and recovery process and has positively affected the lives of many cancer survivors and their supporters. Taking the comments of past participants into consideration, recommendations have been formulated for Cottage Dreams to consider for future program changes and direction.
