Voluntarism,defensive localism and spaces of resistance to health care restructuring     

《Geoforum》2016

This paper examines the evolving role of volunteers and the voluntary sector in shaping community responses to structural change in health care systems. It contributes to the emerging understanding of the different forms voluntarism can take within and among places, including as a space of resistance to contemporary restructuring initiatives such as regionalization. Within the geographies of voluntarism literature, however, little attention has been directed towards interrogating the local dynamics of such voluntarism, especially as it is reflected in public discourse. We address this deficiency through a media-based case study of public reaction to the recent implementation of Ontario’s Local Health Integration Networks (a type of regional health authority). Specifically, we examine a decade of newspaper coverage in a mid-size Canadian city region to document and characterize how the activities of volunteers and voluntary sector organizations in the community are portrayed in light of the structural imperatives to integrate health care services and regionalize health care governance. The media findings reveal a suite of public concerns and related activities, with the voluntary sector called upon in various ways to defend the autonomy of the community against the perceived threats to local services, employment and vulnerable populations. We interpret the evident complexity of voluntary sector resistance as a form of ‘defensive localism’ and discuss implications for developing informed policy on health care restructuring and for advancing knowledge on the local geographies of voluntarism.  相似文献

Ethics of care across professional and everyday positionalities: The (un)expected impacts of participatory video with young female carers in Slovakia     

《Geoforum》2015

The paper offers a critical intervention into the debates on research impact, theorising the potential of underpinning research agendas by ethics of care. We explore how a range of vectors of care, both intimate and distant, emerged in collaborative activities between researchers based in the UK and community youth workers and teenage female carers in Slovakia, leading to a series of (un)expected outcomes. We argue that while all research impacts cannot be planned in advance, an ethics of care embedded in relationships within and beyond research settings may form conditions in which outcomes exceeding the initial expectations can be anticipated. To achieve this, we argue for questioning the distinctions between academic and non-academic collaborators, legitimising diverse forms of knowledge, action and impact in institutional policies, and for conceiving research projects from the beginning as “more-than-research” avenues.  相似文献   

中医序贯疗法对PICU喘息性肺炎患儿的临床疗效及IgE的影响          下载免费PDF全文

彭南芝  曾才秀  杨晓利 《应用海洋学学报》2021,37(1):13

目的：观察中医序贯疗法治疗儿童重症监护室（PICU）喘息性肺炎的临床疗效及对IgE水平的影响。方法：将60 例PICU喘息性肺炎患儿随机分为治疗组和对照组,每组各30 例。对照组采用西医常规治疗,疗程为14d;治疗组在对照组基础上采用中医序贯疗法,第1～7天服用小青龙汤治疗,第8～14天服用六君子汤加味治疗。比较2组综合疗效、喘息消失时间、平均住院天数,治疗后第8天、15天及1个月血清IgE水平,随访6个月,比较2组复发率。结果：总有效率治疗组为93.3%（28/30）,对照组为76.7%（23/30）,2组比较,差异有统计学意义（P＜0.05）。2组IgE治疗后第8天、第15天、1个月组内比较,差异均有统计学意义（P＜0.01）,治疗后第15天、1个月组间比较,差异亦有统计学意义（P＜0.01）。2组喘息消失时间、平均住院天数、复发率比较,差异均有统计学意义（P＜0.01或P<0.05）。结论：中医序贯疗法能有效改善PICU喘息性肺炎患儿喘息症状,降低IgE水平,缩短住院时间,降低复发率,疗效显著。  相似文献   

气象保健、气象治疗与保健舱   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0

气象条件对人类的健康与疾病有着明显的影响。如流行性感冒、心脑血管疾病和风湿性关节炎等发病率与天气变化有密切的关系。这类疾病通常称为气象疾病。恶劣的气象条件会破坏人体的健康状况,带来疾病;适宜的气象条件能保持人体的健康状态,促进机体新陈代谢,增强免疫能力,达到治病、保健的效果。在人类生存环境日益恶化的今天,我们一方面要努力改善、保护大的生态环境,另一方面制作一套人造生活、疗养保健的小气候环境也是简易可行的。为此,设计了一个由计算机自动控制多种气象条件的保健舱方案,如制成产品,推入市场,定能造福于人类。  相似文献

基于公平最大化目标的2020年北京市养老设施布局优化   总被引：3，自引：1，他引：2

北京市正快速步入老龄化社会,机构养老作为一种重要的养老模式,对其布局公平性和合理性的研究具有重要的科学和现实意义。本文首先预测了自然增长状态下2020年北京市老龄人口的空间分布,然后建立设施布局优化模型,该模型以各需求点到养老设施的可达性差异最小化为目标;并采用粒子群优化算法求解,对北京市养老设施进行以公平最大化为目标的布局优化。研究结果表明,在公平最大化的目标下,首都功能核心区和城市功能拓展区(即中心城区)所提供的机构养老资源不能完全满足本地需求。城市发展新区在满足当地的机构养老需求之外,还将为中心城区提供大量机构养老服务,生态涵养发展区在满足本地需求的基础上还可为其他地区提供少量机构养老服务。该布局导向与《北京市养老设施专项规划》提出的布局建议相一致,且符合中心城区用地紧张、郊区自然环境较舒适的现实情况。研究结果能为养老政策的制定提供科学建议,所采用的方法也能为其他类型公共服务设施的布局优化提供借鉴。  相似文献
