Gerontological Nursing at afgnv@erols.com
-----------------------------------------
A Monthly Gerontological Nursing E-Zine to 
express news, views, systems, skills, and 
tools to assist any health care provider serving
the post-acute arena.

Typically the post-acute arena serves nursing homes, 
sub-acute facilities, assisted living, adult day 
care and any other service geared toward the
continuum of care in elder care.  Health care is 
constantly changing. Regulations and reimbursements 
can play havoc on any health professional/provider 
servicing this industry.

In attempts to provide both information and support,
JWGNV is creating a monthly ezine which will offer:

Health care news updates/summaries
Regulatory updates
Discussions on: PPS (Prospective Payment System)
                MDS (Minimum Data Set)
                HCFA Initiatives Compliance Issues
                Restorative Care
                Assessing Competencies
                Weight Management Programs
                Quality Improvement
                Managment and Leadership skills
                Nursing practice
                Assisted Living
                And other related topics

The first issue deals with tools/systems that will 
help those healthcare professionals confronted with 
the increased scrutiny of HCFA in regulatory compliance.

JWGNV is a Mid-Atlantic Consulting Group based
in Maryland and serving five states.

Heart Survival on www.HeartSurvivalGuide.com
--------------------------------------------
The Heart Survival Guide [TM] -- 
Helping You Create and Sustain a 
Heart-Healthy Lifestyle [TM]

For women and men who have, or are at-risk for, 
heart disease. If you know you need to make 
lifestyles changes and have had mixed success 
at best in achieving them, then this newsletter is
meant for you.
 
If you've ever:
- tried to cut out red meat, but couldn't do it,
- promised yourself you'd exercise 3 times a week, but 
  couldn't stick with it, or simply thought yourself 
  bad or weak because you seemed to lack the willpower 
  to take actions to improve your health,
  you'll benefit from reading this publication.

This guide is dedicated to the proposition that you 
can, by developing and following a "plan of attack" 
you  believe in, not only survive heart disease -- 
but thrive, living a full and vital life.

Each month, you'll receive a brief article which will 
tap thought-provoking research. Links in the newsletter 
will provide you with citations for the research and 
additional information.
 
This newsletter also periodically brings you:
 
1) announcements of upcoming live, interactive teleconferences
   with experts in the field as well as with people who have
   grappled with developing and sticking to their own plans,
2) reviews of relevant Web sites, and 
3) identification of other valuable resources you can use.

Whether you have been diagnosed with coronary artery disease,
angina, or elevated cholesterol, or simply think you may be
at-risk, this newsletter will provide you with valuable,
thought-provoking information to enhance your health and your life.
 
NOTE: This newsletter and the information it contains is not in
any way intended as medical advice and should not be considered a
substitute for consultation with qualified medical professionals.
It should also not be considered as a substitute for personal
consultation with a mental health professional.

2. CHANGES AND CORRECTIONS

C-PSYCH
-------
C-PSYCH: Cross-Cultural Psychology Discussion List

Change in Discussion Management

C-Psych (CP) has recently changed to an "edited mode" 
which means that each posting has to be approved by 
the listowner(s) before it reaches the members.
Screening criteria include, but are not limited to:
netiquette, commercialism, appropriateness of postings, 
excessive quoting.

The scholarly conference C-PSYCH (Cross-Cultural Psychology)
is a forum for the exchange of ideas, opinions, and 
information among all individuals  -- researchers,
practitioners, students, and the lay public -- interested
in cross-cultural psychology.

This list is particularly designed  to discuss generic issues
in cross-cultural psychology and its intertwining disciplines,
such as developmental, cognitive, personality, and social
psychology.

The discussion of topics of clinical relevance is  n o t
encouraged, but tolerated, because this is explicitly _not_
a major topic of CP.

A main focus of CP lies in the discussion of both quantitative
and  qualitative  methodology,  research as such, and  generic
issues in the study of cultures.
