What is TRUE?
T or F:
Uncontrolled diabetes can lead to weaker immune systems |
What are social determinants of health?
We can think of these in a framework: socioecological to organize determinants into individual, community, and global levels.
This is any factor that can influence health outcomes, e.g. education, income, neighborhood income, social support, access to care, health behaviors
|
What is FALSE?
While less severe, Omicron is more transmissible, so hospitalizations are rising esp since late November.
T or F:
Because Omicron does not seem as severe as Delta or other variants, hospitalizations in SF are lower than they were in November 2021. |
What is T?
Socioecologic models organize determinants of health into 3 levels: individual (e.g. age, gender, medical conditions, genetics, income), community (e.g. social support, neighborhood, work), and global (e.g. health systems, policies, toxins) determinants of health.
T or F
We can use a framework called the "socio-ecological model" to organize determinants of health |
What is T?
Parks with community-organized activities, asking folks what types of exercise they prefer/if they can find a way to do it, how often they think they can (MI) can improve health more than telling someone to exercise.
T or F
Being aware of safe places to exercise can improve health outcomes. |
What is E?
Control over work/essential workers, relying on mass transit, health plans with high costs, childcare/ill family/denial all impede; can work with advocacy, telehealth, informing policy to help reduce barriers.
Choose best answer:
Sometimes patients may have difficulty making appointments bc of a. work sched, b. lack of transportation, c. high copays, d. competing demands, e. all of the above |
What is population health?
Kindig & Stoddard 2003, aka everything that affects health outside the clinical encounter/hosp/clinic
This term refers to the health outcomes of a group of individuals, and the distribution of such health outcomes within that group.
|
What is FALSE?
Ethnicities differ, as do age groups, in participating in testing and vaccinating/boosting. This could be due to access to care, hesitancy, other factors.
T or F:
All ethnicities, age groups, genders in SF have similar uptake/participation with booster and vaccinations. |
What is T?
Education, employment, income, family/social support, safety are socioeconomic determinants that impact health.
T or F
Of the major types of determinants (socioeconomic, health behaviors, medical care, environmental) socioeconomic factors account for 40% of health outcomes according to some investigators. |
What is e?
Safer protesting can raise awareness, reduce risk of transmission by staying outdoors, avoiding chanting/shouting, using signs/clapping vs shouting, with good hand hygiene, avoiding crowding, avoid taking off mask when others are unmasked.
This method can help keep peaceful protests safer:
a. clapping/banging on signs to avoid shouting, b. not sharing signs/equipment, c. distancing, d. avoiding eating/drinking in crowds, e. all of the above |
What is (any 1 of the following)
telehealth/telephone appts, co-locating clinics where people live/work, expanding coverage, improving pay for essential workers, policies to cover sick leave, childcare,
This is one way to reduce barriers to health care (Multiple possible responses:)
|
What is the built environment?
This refers to man-made structures/landscapes that influence behaviors leading to health outcomes; examples include: food deserts, walkability
|
What is teach-back technique? EC: good examples?
Also acceptable: mult modes of communication (e.g. written, verbal, drawings) and use of ratios rather than %, advanced directives written at younger-grade level (vs 12th)
Individuals with lower health literacy i.e. ability to understand health info to make decisions may hav-e worse outcomes e.g. ED, re-admission, LOS. This intervention helps clarify communication without taking more time.
|
What is T?
Health outcomes across the world are tied to education levels (e.g. proportion of pop with hs degree or higher) and income of the neighborhood is a stronger predictor of health than individual income, per several studies of the US population.
T or F
"Your zip code may be more important than your genetic code." a. always, b. sometimes, c. never |
What are (any 2:) teaching back, working to improve a determinant of health, knowing local resources, writing op-eds, research to inform policy, town halls, voting
These are 2 of many ways that someone can improve health outcomes (many possible correct answers:)
