However, information is unavailable on these associations, especially with the older generation of refugee populations. Authors examined the association and explored which disability and chronic diseases might be associated with depressive symptoms among 208 Vietnamese-origin older adults (≥65 years) from the Vietnamese Aging and Care Survey (VACS) in the United States. Study participants were 56.2 percent female on average 75.4 years old with low average education and socioeconomic status. Most (80 percent) rated their health as fair/poor. Regression analyses showed significant associations between functional disability (i.e., ADL and IADL) and chronic diseases (i.e., arthritis and liver disease) and higher depressive symptoms. Complications from chronic conditions and pain might limit daily activities and impact older Vietnamese psychologically. Social workers can connect older Vietnamese and their families with culturally and linguistically relevant adult daycare centers to provide them with social and exercise opportunities. Policymakers can also help these Vietnamese families to have easier access to the facilities by allocating more financial resources for their social service needs.","PeriodicalId":47424,"journal":{"name":"Health & Social Work","volume":" ","pages":"121-130"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12040069/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143626383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Twenty-five leaders from one southeastern state completed five open-ended survey questions regarding workforce wellness. Results indicate that these leaders defined workforce wellness in terms of creating a healthy workplace, encouraging employees to prioritize well-being, promoting work-life balance, implementing initiatives aimed at promoting wellness, and providing wellness trainings. Leaders were less clear about their role related to wellness. Almost half of participants reported implementing workforce wellness initiatives, with most reporting barriers to doing so and wanting to do more in the future. The findings of this study have implications for the preparation of healthcare leaders and the development of organizational interventions that build from the workforce wellness conceptualizations that leaders hold.","PeriodicalId":47424,"journal":{"name":"Health & Social Work","volume":" ","pages":"141-148"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143617599","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unfortunately, these tools are underutilized in the field of social work. To address this gap, a systematic review of 53 studies was conducted, revealing the use of GIS methodologies such as spatial analysis, data visualization, spatiotemporal analysis, and spatial proximity analysis. Using these GIS methodologies, studies aimed to address a wide range of issues including health risk factors, environmental impacts on mental health, health disparities, and access to services. Five key themes emerged: environmental impact on health, GIS and community-based participatory research, risk factors and determinants of health, health disparities, and access to health and social services. GIS applications can help map health disparities, identify underserved areas for targeted interventions, analyze the impact of environmental factors on health, and facilitate community engagement through visual data representation. Future research should focus on exploring advanced GIS methodologies, such as predictive modeling and machine learning, to enhance healthcare disparity analysis and optimize resource allocation. Integrating advanced methodologies will deepen understanding of health disparities and improve prediction accuracy for timely interventions in underserved areas.","PeriodicalId":47424,"journal":{"name":"Health & Social Work","volume":" ","pages":"7-17"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142855926","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recognized as a \"super social determinant of health,\" digital inclusion holds promise in addressing key health factors, such as social relationships, support systems, and information access. The study surveyed 131 foster parents and 152 kinship providers across varied U.S. regions about access and use of technology among the youth in their care. Findings reveal that most of the youth in our study possess personal technological devices, and their caregivers facilitate access. Although the majority have access to technology, the rate is significantly lower than the general population of youth. Despite constraints contributing to a digital divide, caregivers note positive impacts, underscoring technology's role in sustaining social connections and fostering relationships. Closing the digital gap assumes critical importance in advancing health equity for this vulnerable demographic, underscoring the imperative for comprehensive digital inclusion strategies within the child welfare system.","PeriodicalId":47424,"journal":{"name":"Health & Social Work","volume":" ","pages":"27-36"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142855923","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A tech-health training taxonomy was developed for a new social work course, aiming to equip students with macro-level skills to support equitable client access to telehealth. The training program was designed to illuminate and cultivate digital citizenship, an essential competency for advancing health equity and inclusivity among disadvantaged populations. To achieve this, the authors outline four pedagogical strategies to enhance students' understanding and application of digital citizenship, digital self-efficacy, and the empowerment of underserved communities in navigating telehealth. Additionally, the article proposes a research framework to assess the effectiveness of these strategies in supporting students' mastery of digital citizenship competencies and self-efficacy, including both reactive self-efficacy and generative self-efficacy. This novel approach seeks to prepare future social workers to address the digital divide in healthcare services and promote inclusivity.","PeriodicalId":47424,"journal":{"name":"Health & Social Work","volume":" ","pages":"18-26"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142855927","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The lack of screening in clinical practice may be compounded by the fact that clinicians are not often trained to effectively screen for access to lethal means. This article evaluates the effectiveness of the novel Engaging in Lethal Means Safety (ELMS) suicide prevention program. ELMS is a theoretically driven, empirically supported lethal means safety training program that trains mental health first responders in engaging clients in discussions of lethal means safety with a particular focus on firearm access and storage. Pretest, posttest, and one-month follow-up assessments measured knowledge of lethal means, confidence, and comfort in screening for access to lethal means, and future intent to counsel on means safety measures. All constructs increased significantly at posttest. Confidence was sustained at posttest. Comfort and intent to counsel levels decreased at follow-up but not to pretraining levels. Booster sessions are recommended for future iterations of the program to further sustain overall effects. Further, additional research using a treatment control is encouraged.","PeriodicalId":47424,"journal":{"name":"Health & Social Work","volume":" ","pages":"51-59"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142928123","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
