Filter by:Preconceptional care is a very important preventive health service that gives couples the opportunity to prepare for a healthy pregnancy in a physically and psychologically healthy way, aims to identify and minimize the risks that may be present to the mother and fetus. Although preconceptional care is recommended for all couples of reproductive age, it is not at the desired level both in the world and in our country. In the literature, it is seen that the existing knowledge of individuals is insufficient, care is not provided for this period, and research revealing the knowledge and attitudes of individuals is very insufficient. It is thought that if the individuals in the society are informed about this issue and awareness is raised, the rate of benefiting from preconceptional care and counseling services will increase. One of the important components of preconceptional counseling is health education. Health education aims to increase the knowledge of individuals, to create awareness and thus to gain positive health behavior. The Health Promotion Model enables individuals to make behavioral changes to create a healthy lifestyle. Based on this, this research has been planned in order to determine the effect of web-based pregnancy preparation education structured according to the health improvement model in the preconceptional period on women's knowledge, attitudes and health behaviors.
Background: With the trend of aging population and increasing demand for long-term care, Taiwan's long-term care 2.0 policy places special emphasis on home care services to achieve the goal of local aging. This study focused on the health-promoting behaviors home care attendants and applied Pender's health promotion model theory to investigate the impact of home care attendants' self-perceived health and health literacy on health-promoting behaviors. Objective: To investigate the current status of home care attendants' health-promoting behaviors and the correlation between self-perceived health and health literacy. Methodology: A structured questionnaire was used to collect data from 150 eligible home care attendants in the northern region using self-perceived health, health literacy, and health-promoting behaviors scales. Multiple regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the independent variables and the dependent variables. Expected contribution: The results of this study will help to understand the current status of health-promoting behaviors of home care attendants and the correlation with their self-perceived health and health literacy. It will also help to understand whether home care attendants have sufficient health literacy to maintain or improve their health status, and to understand the areas in which home care attendants' health-promoting behaviors are still inadequate, so as to suggest effective methods or strategies to improve health-promoting behaviors in the future.

The investigators aim to study whether education, in the form of three two-minute educational videos about COVID-19 vaccine development and dissemination, reduces vaccine hesitancy and increases intent to vaccinate. The investigators intend to use insights from this research study to develop a framework for video-based 'education prescriptions' that reduce vaccine hesitancy and increase intent to vaccinate across a number of infectious diseases. This may have wide-ranging impact: inform practice for health promotions and public health, as well as support infectious disease related work done by healthcare professionals (e.g. those working in travel medicine, where vaccination rates are also low).
