"Approaches by health care institutions to address [health] inequities often, and increasingly, focus on social needs screening without linked, robust responses. … Learning network methods hold promise when institutions are confronted with complex, multidimensional challenges. Equity-oriented learning networks may therefore accelerate action to address complex factors that contribute to inequitable pediatric health outcomes, enabling rapid learning along the way." https://lnkd.in/gzNzkuRj

We have 2 new resources about integration! Integrating Oral Health Care and Primary Care Learning Collaborative: A State and Local Partnership Final Report https://lnkd.in/emieMqsA This report describes programmatic efforts to integrate oral health care and prenatal care with both a state and a local component. Project teams consisted of members from state oral health programs and local community health centers. The project was implemented from 2022 through 2024. The report discusses project team selection, the state-level approach, the local-level approach, use of stipend funds and in-kind support, and integration of interprofessional oral health core clinical competencies into prenatal care at the participating clinic site. The report’s executive summary is also available separately. Integrating Oral Health Care into Primary Care: Five Successful, Long-Standing, Statewide Programs Providing Care for the Maternal and Child Health Population https://lnkd.in/eY42U92a This report spotlights five programs focused on integrating oral health care into primary care serving the maternal and child health population. Spotlights include a program overview; a description of the program’s inception and early years; information about funding, notable strengths, notable evaluation activities, and evaluation methodology; select evaluation findings; and resources to learn more about evaluation. The report also describes key elements for program success and challenges common across all programs that support or limit program success. Stand-alone spotlights of each program are also available: Cavity Free at Three (Colorado) Colorado Medical Dental Integration Project (Colorado) From the First Tooth (Maine) I-Smile and Cavity Free Iowa (Iowa) Into the Mouths of Babes (North Carolina) The Oral Health Learning Café (https://lnkd.in/eZqPrQZC) will be sharing an overview of the report and featuring each of these programs in a series of webinar presentations from August 13–January 2025.

Thanks to Patient Education and Counseling for publishing our new special issue (5 interactional studies!). We examine questioning practices, which illuminate possibilities and constraints on fully engaging children in their care and health decisions. [Editorial introduction: https://lnkd.in/ggkqCz3i] Michelle O’Reilly and Nikki Kiyimba examine the ‘fact-checking’ functions of declarative questions in child mental health assessments. https://lnkd.in/gmyWjg66 Aleksandr Shirokov reveals how pediatricians navigate challenges engaging children in reporting symptoms “Responsibility to report symptoms: Pursuing symptom reports from children in paediatric encounters.” https://lnkd.in/g6wTKpqP Laura Jenkins and co-authors’ article considers good reasons for a question that creates interactional problems– the question may enable a child’s participation on their terms. https://lnkd.in/gkPje32X Janet Watts and co-authors examine questions and acknowledged responses from children who communicate primarily through vocalizations and embodied conduct. https://lnkd.in/gJC7aNhz My co-authors and I analyze how pediatric oncologists use questions and coordinate efforts with children of color and caregivers to achieve child-centered care. https://lnkd.in/gYJsaZWh Collectively, the articles offer real-world examples and evidence to inform the theory and practice of child-centered care. These studies also contribute the growing work on pediatric interactions in primary and specialty care. See @LaalaaJenkins et al.’s recent review https://lnkd.in/gsMDkkJN Thank you to PEC editors, contributors, co-editors, the HEAL-R Collaborative, and everyone who made it possible for us to share this research.

The needs of older adults with complex health and social care needs are not optimally met within the community. Proud of the team for publishing results from an implementation of an Integrated Primary care using the principles of Patient-centeredness (PCMH) for complex care. Patient-centered care was able to enhance the overall healthcare experience for older adults while decreasing the frequency of medical services required. It underscores the potential in improving care while reducing the burden on healthcare resources. With rapid population ageing in Singapore, there would be increasing number of older adults with complex health and social care needs and the corresponding response to change paradigms and innovate, evaluate, scale and sustain health and social care integration models in the community.

Development of digital health technologies (DHT) in pediatrics: * 116 pediatric digital health grant projects or subprojects were funded by NIH in fiscal year (FY) 2018, totaling $65.12 million = 20% vs adults (looks also 20% in 2023) * most was focused on mental/behavioral health, diabetes, asthma * most focused on adolescent (adolescent is almost an adult- does this count?:)) - minimum on infants * challenges: #1-3 is lack of funding; developmental differences (size, ability to communicate, pathophysiology, movement interference), false positives Why is the DHT development critical? * kids cannot verbalize as well as adults when they do not feel well resulting in delay in diagnosis, poor monitoring/management of chronic conditions * an example of how suboptimal is observational reporting is seizures where almost 40% is underrecognized in adults (probably more in kids); other examples would be pain, etc. https://lnkd.in/gGDQ5fBy and https://lnkd.in/gq8934dN; https://lnkd.in/gmx4rm2F

"Only 15% of parents possess proficient levels of health literacy, indicating that most are at risk for health literacy related challenges. Limited health literacy has been associated with a 1.5- to 2.5-fold increased odds of liquid medication dosing errors. Health literacy-informed communication strategies – plain language, pictures or pictograms, teach back, and demonstration with show back – improve communication and comprehension and reduce medication errors and patient harm."

Ever had a preemie? Are you a father to a baby or child that was born prematurely? How involved were you when the baby was still in hospital? Were there any hindrances? Was it easy for you to be involved? What could you have desired? Our recent paper, led by Patani George Mhango , Master of Science in Global Health Implementation, Kamuzu University of Health Sciences , sheds more light on the subject. it highlights the structural, cultural and condition-of-the-baby impediments to the whole process. In the era of service delivery redesign, there is a need to include pathways that will allow fathers to be involved in the care of their babies. https://lnkd.in/ekuutMjy

A new #CalltoAction, launched on #UHCday by MOMENTUM Safe Surgery and many implementing partners, highlights five priority actions to support postpartum and post-abortion #FamilyPlanning (PPFP and PAFP) scale up in #UHC: 1️⃣ Integrate PPFP and PAFP across the six WHO health system building blocks, with an emphasis on stewardship, governance, and leadership to enable adequate health financing and workforce. 2️⃣ Engage communities to address stigma, bias, social and gender norms, and understand client motivation and needs for accessing PPFP/PAFP services, including via digital tools. 3️⃣ Engage and strengthen the private sector, expand what the private sector can provide, and assure quality. 4️⃣ Strengthen health information system coverage indicators for counseling and measurement of voluntary PPFP/PAFP uptake for more reliable data. 5️⃣ Reallocate financial resources for equitable access.
