Prenatal/Postnatal Health Care for Immigrant Women in Canada: Consideration of the Population Health Promotion Model (15 Pages, 179.25 USD)

This is a 15 page paper discussing the prenatal and postnatal health care considerations for immigrant women in Canada. Discussion also includes the population health promotion models. The World Health Organization has designated several high risk populations in regards to health care issues. Among these vulnerable populations are immigrants and women during the prenatal and postnatal stages of child delivery. Immigrant women in Canada make up 30% of the current immigrant population and in addition to cultural and language barriers, these women are also isolated in their community because their movements may be restricted due to child or household responsibilities. Within the last decade, Canada has established many health care centers and programs across the country to meet the health care needs of women immigrants based on population health promotion models which establish communication and interaction within the community in order to determine community needs before activation of an action plan. Nurses within Canada are involved in health promotion from the start of the process to the finish. Nurses are necessary in regards to their medical knowledge in the health care centers but have also expanded their roles to communicators and educators within the community. In addition to medical based opportunities, the increasing number of immigrant health care centers in Canada also provides social education opportunities for the nursing profession as well.

Cost Effective Measures in Maintenance of Mental Health Treatments and Possible Alternative Therapies (7 Pages, 83.65 USD)

This is a 7 page paper discussing cost effective measures in mental health treatment. The Surgeon General in the United States has issued a report which estimates that “one out of every five Americans suffers from some form of mental disorder with direct and indirect costs to society totaling nearly $200 billion a year”. In addition to the number of those considered affected by a mental health illness within the country, the range and diagnoses of mental health illnesses vary a great deal. While those with severe mental health conditions may be able to be “reliably” diagnosed and treated in the medical community, there are those who cannot afford medical mental health treatment as they may be uninsured and there are also those who may be less easily diagnosed or may be associated with mental disorders which relate to alcoholism and/or substance abuse therefore creating a large and diverse population in need of mental health care. The mental health community has also come to the realization that mental health care treatment costs are escalating while funding is not, resulting in mental health professionals seeking other more cost-effective treatments for their patients but treatments which must also maintain the effectiveness of traditional treatment as well. Since alternate treatments have been studied in the past decade, it has been found that while many alternative treatments are cost-effective, many are also as effective as traditional treatments and some have proven more-effective than traditional therapies.

Benefits and Costs of a Taxpayer Focused (Public) Healthcare System (Canadian Based) (5 Pages, 59.75 USD)

This is a 5 page paper discussing benefits, costs and possible modernization of the public health care system in Canada. Canadians currently appreciate the public healthcare system in their country mainly because the Canada Health Act guarantees free health care to anyone in the country. Despite this advantage over other countries in which patients have to pay for health care and may be turned away if they are unable to, the Canadian taxpayers also realize that health care costs are increasing and this will eventually become a burden on the average taxpayer. Rather than give up the public system for a private system or a two-tiered system which would create an inequality in health care services for the public, the Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) has offered a report outlining certain areas in the current system which could be modernized including the Canada Health Act. While keeping universal health care as a priority, the CTF believes that the new principles of the system should be public governance, quality, accountability, choice and sustainability in addition to structural changes that would allow for individual accountability measures, intergenerational fairness and a commitment to innovative technologies. The taxpayer would still be the central focus of the health care system while increasing the efficiency of the current system. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Privatization of Health Care Issues in Canada and Albertans Current Battle (5 Pages, 59.75 USD)

This is a 5 page paper discussing the current issues involved with the privatization of health care in Canada. Canadians have been slowly absorbing more of personal medical costs within the last decade indicating a slow trend toward a private health care system in Canada. As federal funding decreases toward medicare, the provinces have had to pay for more and more of their medical costs especially in the provinces of Ontario and Alberta which currently have the highest costs per capita in medical care. Provincial governments, especially in Alberta, are slowly leaning toward the idea of privatization in order to decrease the burden placed on their government. Citizens and health organizations however, supported by the Canada Health Act are not interested in abandoning the current public system for fear of increased personal costs, decreased public health care and the possibility of a two-tier system resulting. Instead, they would like to see improvements to the current Canadian public health care systems in areas which currently cost Canadian citizens the most in personal health costs such as medications, home care, long-term care, dental care, physiotherapy in addition to more regimented reporting systems from health care centres and the Canadian government.

Women’s Health Issues – Racism, Sexism, and Cultural Issues (10 Pages, 119.5 USD)

This 10 page report discusses women’s health issues and the impact of racism, sexism and socio-economic status. Numerous health areas – whether in quality of care, delivery of service, accurate diagnosis - have proven to be equally discriminatory for women in terms of treatment options or actually, lack of options. Minority women, in general, face a greater number of health risks, experience higher rates of chronic diseases, and have shorter life expectancies than white women. The health of minority women may be further compromised by high poverty rates, lack of education, and limited access to health care. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

Health Care, The Elderly And AARP (5 Pages, 59.75 USD)

5 pages in length. The primary objective of a health care delivery system is "to enable all citizens to access health care services that are cost-effective and that meet certain preestablished standards of quality" (Shi et al, 1998, p. PG); however, the system has failed the elderly populace time and time again, rendering it necessary for political action committees (PACs) like the American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) to take charge of reform. The reason why some United States citizens are without any coverage in spite of the existence of public and private health insurance programs is because it is far too expensive if the individual is not being subsidized by an employer or is retired and unable to afford private insurance. Indeed, the United States health care market is referred to as "imperfect" because it does not allow for all people to take advantage of medical services - only those who are either covered through employers or can afford their own private policies. The major players in the United States health services system - which include physicians, health service institution administrators, insurance companies, large employers and the government - are often at odds with one another and wholly unable to provide the necessary health care the elderly require.

The Future of Healthcare in Canada: The Influence and Role of Nurses and Their Professional Groups in the Recommendations in the Romanow Report (21 Pages, 250.95 USD)

This is a 21 page paper discussing how nursing as a professional group may influence the changes and recommendations in the Romanow report for the future of health care in Canada. On November 28, 2002, Roy Romanow and the Commission on the Future of Health Care in Canada released its final report. This report highlights recommendations in key areas in health care including Medicare; issues in primary health care; prevention and promotion; key measurement tools through the development of the Health Council of Canada; innovation and delivery through information technology; access for rural and remote communities; homecare; prescription drugs; and, Aboriginal health among many other factors and includes funding commitments for these recommendations. The nursing associations across Canada including representatives from the Registered Nurses Association of Ontario (RNAO) and the Canadian Federation of Nurses’ Unions (CFNU) have supported the Romanow Report as a “remarkable blueprint for building Medicare’s second generation and strengthening the public’s access to nurses” as well as the reforms which “will shorten waiting time and improve care” overall. The professional nursing groups have an active interest in all aspects of the Romanow report which not only broadens the roles and responsibilities of the nurses in Canada but increases the number of programs which will be affiliated with nursing. Most important in regards to nurses’ roles in the recommendations of the report are those which relate to measurement outcomes from an administrative and informative approach; those which relate to various commitments to innovations within the industry and primary care access; homecare access; and the new legislation proposed in regards to the entire health human resources. Bibliography lists 17 sources.
