Migration and Health

War, natural disasters and unemployment are important reasons why people flee their homelands. Getting a better understanding of what it is like to age at a place different at one’s own place of origin and how war and natural disasters can impact a person’s life course, will enable healthcare professionals to promote healthy ageing also for persons who have difficult or traumatic experiences. In this short video you will learn how migration impacts on individuals’ health and how to better understand migrant health. The course is suitable for educators, students, healthcare professionals and other stakeholders who want to learn more about migrant health.

Introduction:

The Information Revolution and the general digitalization of the society also impacts the domains of health care and social work. Professionals play an important role in the use of technology in these domains. The introduction and uptake of health care technologies, and more specifically the use of big data and artificial intelligence has a major impact on the way social workers and nurses work. Data-driven technologies have a particularly strong potential to support professionals in their work. However, their use also introduces potential risks such as decreased patient empowerment, lack of transparency and loss of human contact. In this megatrend several activities are included to help you to prepare you on working together with technology (and when not) in your work in health care and social work.

Validation:

The lecture content has been tested in previous years in person, validation on the use of the Actionbound parts needs to be carried out .

Learning objectives:

The lecture aims to give a foundation on the concept of AI and the different forms of artificial intelligence. Examples of possible uses in the health care context are given, what types of data can be collected, how they can be analyzed, and the ethical issues that arise with the use of AI .

Introduction:

The course is well structured in 3 selected episodes:

The five C’s of Psychogeriatrics
Cognitive Functions
Caregivers

Collaboration and teamwork are essential in the care and treatment of psychogeriatric older people for several reasons:

Comprehensive Care: Psychogeriatric patients often present with multiple and complex needs stemming from dementia and other mental health issues. Interprofessional collaboration allows for a more holistic approach, where various healthcare providers (e.g., psychiatrists, geriatricians, nurses, social workers, and occupational therapists) can share their expertise and create a cohesive treatment plan (see Module The five C’s of Psychogeriatrics)
Shared Decision-Making: Involving patients and their families in care discussions fosters shared decision-making. This not only respects the preferences and values of the individuals but also empowers them, leading to higher satisfaction and better adherence to treatment plans (see Module Caregivers)
Enhanced Communication: Effective teamwork improves communication among healthcare professionals. Regular meetings and discussions can ensure that everyone is aware of the patient's cognitive functions, treatment changes, and any concerns, minimizing the risk of misunderstandings and gaps in care (see Module Cognitive functions)
Integrated Services: Collaboration facilitates the integration of various services, allowing for coordinated interventions that can address both physical and psychological aspects of health. This is particularly important for older adults who may be managing multiple conditions simultaneously (see Module Caregivers)
Resource Optimization: Working in a multidisciplinary team helps maximize resources and expertise. This ensures that patients receive comprehensive assessments including cognitive functions and interventions that might not be possible when working in silos (see Module Cognitive Functions)
Education and Support: Team collaboration also benefits ongoing education and support for healthcare providers. Sharing knowledge and skills among team members leads to professional development and a better understanding of psychogeriatric care principles (see Modules The five C’s of Psychogeriatrics and Cognitive Functions)

Validation:

Validated with ECM credits at the provincial level.

Learning objectives:

The course is well structured in 3 selected episodes (of 30 min each) from an Introduction course to Psychogeriatrics; to epidemiology and the problem faced by the care-giver.
This course will guide you through collaboration and teamwork which are essential in the care and treatment of psychogeriatric older people for several reasons.
