Pharmacist-led telehealth disease management in patients with diabetes and depression. Junior Investigator: Lisa B. Cohen Senior Investigator: Paul A. Pirragilia, M.D. Abstract Rationale: There is a high prevalence of major depression and significant depressive symptoms in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). Co-morbid depression in diabetes results in decreased adherence to diabetes self-care and attenuates the effects of medical interventions. A pharmacistled diabetes case management program at the Providence VA Medical Center has improved treatment adherence, glycemic control and cardiac risk reduction in patients with concomitant diabetes and mental illness.

support teaching and learning Unit 312 Support numeracy development Outcome 1: Understand current national and organisational frameworks for mathematics 1.1: Explain the aims and importance of learning provision for numeracy development The aims and importance of learning provision for numeracy development is to ensure that all pupils understand that maths is an important part of everyday life, and will continue to be used throughout their life. Maths is taught to children in many different ways, sometimes there can be too much emphasis on the recording of ‘sums’, if this is introduced to children too early it can slow down the pupil’s progress in thinking mathematically. Maths is now taught very differently to when I was in school, because there is more emphasis now in how you arrive at the answer and finding different methods of arriving at the correct answer particularly in the early primary phase. Showing the children different methods of arriving at the answer improves their investigation skills. The mathematics curriculum is intended to give the children a better understanding of numeracy.
In his age, even changing his diet is big thing. With this in mind, nurses should find the correct approach to Mr.’s P care. Nurses should choose holistic approach for this patient’s care, which will include his wife and all the circumstances of their life. In this case, not only the physical condition should be treated, but psychological and cognitive as well. Treatment plan “Approximately 28%–58% of individuals with heart failure (HF) suffer from cognitive impairment, commonly identified as difficulty with concentration and/or memory” (Bauer, Johnson, & Pozehl, 2011 p. 577).
SENCOs must also collaborate with curriculum co-ordinators at the school to make sure that the learning requirements of all children with SEN are given equal emphasis and priority. At both the School Action and the School Action Plus stages, a SENCO will work with the teacher to consider the child’s needs, and will take the lead role in getting further assessment of a child where necessary, by contacting the LEA. They normally will be responsible for making a request of the LEA for a Statutory Assessment which may result in there being a statement of SEN. Deputy Head teacher A deputy head teacher, deputy headmaster or deputy headmistress is the second most senior teacher in a school in the United Kingdom and elsewhere. A state
CARDIAC Catheterization * Insertion of a catheter into the heart and surrounding vessels * Determines the structure and performance of the heart valves and surrounding vessels * Used to diagnose CAD, assess coronary patency, and determine the extent of atherosclerosis. * Pretest: Ensure Consent, assess for allergy to seafood and iodine, NPO, document weight and height, baseline VS, blood tests and document the peripheral pulses * Fast for 8-12 hrs, health teaching, medications to allay anxiety. * Intra-test: inform patient of a fluttery feeling as the catheter passes through the heart; inform the patient that a feeling of warmth and metallic taste may occur when dye is administered * Post-test: Monitor VS and cardiac rhythm * Monitor peripheral pulses, color and warmth and sensation of the extremity distal to insertion
It is useful in deciding whether the child is reaching expected milestones of development in different areas. The assessment framework is how children are assessed in school, for example, in my setting when a child reads, we write it in their planners. Standard measurements: School tests or cognitive aptitude tests that demonstrate a snapshot of children's academic ability or skill at retaining taught information and that might then be used to compare outcomes between children of the same age. Health programmes that might measure head circumference, weight, height, visual and auditory functioning. Educational psychologists may use reasoning tests to assess an intellectual age in contrast to a chronological age.
Summarise the entitlement and provision for early years education. The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) is the statutory framework that sets the standards that all Early Years providers must meet to ensure that children learn and develop well and are kept healthy and safe. It promotes teaching and learning to ensure children are ready for school and gives children the broad range of knowledge and skills that provide the right foundation for good future progress through school and life. All schools and Ofsted-registered early years providers must follow the EYFS, including childminders, preschools, nurseries and school reception classes. There are assessments when a child is aged between 2 and 3 years and at the end of the academic year when they turn 5.
