These issues can also impair coping during future health care visits. Parents, children, and clinicians can benefit from strategies designed to enhance coping. However, an important barrier to implementation of coping strategy interventions is lack of knowledge among both parents and staff. We produced two sets of tailored handouts designed to enhance education for primary care staff and parents using 41 clinical guidelines, reviews, and randomized controlled trials. Articles were selected from vaccine-specific literature by relevance and practicality for primary care. Handouts provide suggestions for parent and staff interventions before, during, and after vaccinations, focusing on techniques that are effective, cost-efficient, and adaptable. For children of all ages, tailored adult vocabulary and tone can also support coping.</p>","PeriodicalId":35613,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric nursing","volume":"42 6","pages":"267-74"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"35798195","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Pediatric Diabetes Telemedicine Program Improves Access to Care for Rural Families: Role of APRNs.","authors":"Nancy Marie Smith, Rosemarie DiMauro Satyshur","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>Type 1 diabetes mellitus has increased in children by 23% from 2001 to 2009. Rural communities additionally have increased disparities related to access barriers and a large minority population with poorer overall health. Research evidence supports telemedicine as an effective alternative to bring preventive diabetes care to remote areas. This article presents an overview of the leadership role of advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) with the implementation and evaluation of a pediatric diabetes telemedicine program at a rural pediatric outpatient specialty clinic in partnership with a tertiary center telemedicine network. The telemedicine program quality improvement (QI) project explored caregiver satisfaction with a convenience sample of caregivers (N = 14) using a nine-item Telemedicine Diabetes Caregiver Satisfaction Survey (TDCSS), with responses ranging from 1 = strongly disagree to 5 = strongly agree. Findings indicate caregivers were highly satisfied with communication/ privacy (M = 4.8), access to care (M = 4.1), and quality of services (M = 5.0). The multidisciplinary collaborative teamwork, continuous QI, and dependable technology were integral to the quality of the telemedicine clinical initiative. APRNs provided technology expertise, interdisciplinary collaboration leadership, care coordination, and advocacy for policy changes. Results demonstrate that telemedicine and APRN leadership can help implement innovative programs into rural communities to improve access to care, healthcare cost, and outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":35613,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric nursing","volume":"42 6","pages":"294-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"35798200","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Experiencing the loss of a family member or friend during this period of life can have a profound effect on a young person’s social functioning, physical and mental health, and development. Research demonstrates that the grief reactions of adolescents and young adults differ from those of adults, and that loss is an individual experience that varies widely throughout each developmental stage. Further, youth who struggle to cope with a significant loss without support and guidance are more likely to experience a greater intensity of grief and distress. When providing support to a grieving adolescent or young adult, it is important to understand normal development, appreciate common grief responses, and identify deviations. It is also important to know about available interventions and supportive strategies, specifically for this age group. With this knowledge, pediatric nurses and other helping professionals can tailor guidance, support, and referrals to suit the specific needs of individual bereaved youth.</p>","PeriodicalId":35613,"journal":{"name":"Pediatric nursing","volume":"42 6","pages":"275-81"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"35798193","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
