Rationale for the study. Experiencing physical or sexual abuse during childhood is a major stressor and a risk factor for psychosis; however, the reason why some individuals who are exposed to this abuse develop psychosis while others exposed to the same abuse do not is still unclear (Xxxxxx X Xxxxxxxx, 2015). Evidence from the general population shows that exposure to childhood abuse affects the functioning of the endocrine and central nervous systems with long-lasting consequences (Xxxxxxxx 2004; Xxxxxx et al. 2009). In particular, these experiences have been linked with alterations the HPA axis and its reactivity, and abnormalities of brain structure resulting in aberrant neuroendocrine and behavioural responses (Xxxxxxx et al. 2006; Xxxx et al. 2010). Furthermore, physical or sexual abuse has the most severe consequences in term of physical and mental health with its effects minimally influenced by the co-occurrence of other minor types of abuse and by the co-occurrence of other socio-economic factors (Xxxxxx et al., 2010). Nonetheless, the impact of trauma on HPA axis activity and brain structure mimics and sometimes overlaps with the biological abnormalities present in individuals with psychotic disorders, the pathway that leads from childhood abuse to the onset of psychosis has still not been defined.

Rationale for the study. Compassionate care is a national priority in the NHS and there are exhortations for this to be implemented in the clinical settings (DOH, 2008; DOH, 2012a, DOH, 2013, Xxxxxxx, 2013). However, most of the literature on compassionate care is anecdotal and the limited number of existing studies are mostly conducted in acute care settings (Xxxxxx and Xxxxxxx, 2004; Xxxxxxxx, 2006; Xxxxx and Xxxxxx, 2010; Xxxxx, 2009; Xxxx, 2011; Xxxx, 2011; xxx xxx Xxxxxx, 2011). There is a paucity of research on compassionate care in acute mental health care settings and existing studies in mental health care have explored compassionate care from the perspectives of staff and students and have not included service users and carers. Additionally, a number of the service users in acute mental health care settings are involuntary and have not consented to admission and treatment (Xxxxxxxxx et al, 2015; Xxxxx et al, 2015), therefore it was believed that the delivery of compassionate care within acute mental health care settings could be different from acute care settings. Furthermore, the level of challenges encountered by staff working in acute mental health care settings such as high levels of aggression due to the severe and enduring nature of service users’ mental health conditions are different to the challenges that staff experience in acute care settings and could impact on the delivery of compassionate care (Xxxxxxxxx et al, 2015; Xxxxx et al, 2015). Despite the severity of service users’ conditions and associated aggression towards staff, there is an expectation that staff have a duty of care to deliver compassionate care to service users, particularly if compassionate care is a national priority in the NHS and one of the fundamental values of the vision and strategy for nursing and midwifery underpinning the practice of nurses, midwives and care workers across the NHS, Public Health and Social Care (DOH, 2008; DOH, 2012a, DOH, 2013, Xxxxxxx, 2013). If service users in acute mental health care settings are to be shown compassion and nurses and healthcare assistants are to deliver compassionate care, then it is vital to examine what the concept means in acute mental health care settings to enable its delivery. It was against this backdrop that the study was conducted. The delivery of compassionate care includes both the recipient and provider of care. Therefore, in order to gain an understanding of the meaning of compassionate care in acute mental health care settings, it...

  • Program Purpose The purpose of this Program is to provide preventive and primary health care (PHC) for individuals who reside in the state of Texas with a gross family income at or below 200 percent of the federal poverty level (FPL). Grantee shall provide services regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, age, religion, disability, political beliefs, sexual orientation, and family income.

  • Diagnostic procedures to aid the Provider in determining required dental treatment.

  • Description of Program This Agreement is established to facilitate an exchange program at the partner institution with students, faculty and researchers from each institution (collectively, the “Exchange Program”). The student exchange program enables students from one university to take classes at the other university while working towards a degree at the university where he or she is formally enrolled (individually, the “Student Exchange”) and to encourage faculty members and researchers from each university to visit the other university and engage in certain activities (individually, the “Faculty/Researcher Exchange”). [Substitute the purpose of your program if different.] For purposes of this Agreement, with respect to the Student Exchange, the term “Home University” shall mean the institution in which a student is formally enrolled as a degree candidate, and “Host University” shall mean the institution that has agreed to receive students from the Home University for a period of study. With respect to the Faculty/Researcher Exchange, as used herein, “Home University” shall mean the university where the faculty member and/or researcher is normally employed, and “Host University” shall mean the university that the faculty member and/or researcher is visiting.

  • Clinical 2.1 Provides comprehensive evidence based nursing care to patients including assessment, intervention and evaluation.

  • Research Use The Requester agrees that if access is approved, (1) the PI named in the DAR and (2) those named in the “Senior/Key Person Profile” section of the DAR, including the Information Technology Director and any trainee, employee, or contractor1 working on the proposed research project under the direct oversight of these individuals, shall become Approved Users of the requested dataset(s). Research use will occur solely in connection with the approved research project described in the DAR, which includes a 1-2 paragraph description of the proposed research (i.e., a Research Use Statement). Investigators interested in using Cloud Computing for data storage and analysis must request permission to use Cloud Computing in the DAR and identify the Cloud Service Provider (CSP) or providers and/or Private Cloud System (PCS) that they propose to use. They must also submit a Cloud Computing Use Statement as part of the DAR that describes the type of service and how it will be used to carry out the proposed research as described in the Research Use Statement. If the Approved Users plan to collaborate with investigators outside the Requester, the investigators at each external site must submit an independent DAR using the same project title and Research Use Statement, and if using the cloud, Cloud Computing Use Statement. New uses of these data outside those described in the DAR will require submission of a new DAR; modifications to the research project will require submission of an amendment to this application (e.g., adding or deleting Requester Collaborators from the Requester, adding datasets to an approved project). Access to the requested dataset(s) is granted for a period of one (1) year, with the option to renew access or close-out a project at the end of that year. Submitting Investigator(s), or their collaborators, who provided the data or samples used to generate controlled-access datasets subject to the NIH GDS Policy and who have Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval and who meet any other study specific terms of access, are exempt from the limitation on the scope of the research use as defined in the DAR.

The PI also may include general comments regarding suggestions for improving the data access process in general. Information provided in the progress updates helps NIH evaluate program activities and may be considered by the NIH GDS governance committees as part of NIH’s effort to provide ongoing stewardship of data sharing activities subject to the NIH GDS Policy.
