  • Contribution of the Leg Club Model of Care to the Well-Being of People Living with Chronic Wounds
    research Contribution of the Leg Club model of care to the well-being of people living with chronic wounds l Objective: Social support impacts well-being. Higher levels of social support encourage treatment adherence and aid healing in people living with chronic wounds. The Leg Club model of care harnesses social support mechanisms to improve patient outcomes. This study investigated whether social support mechanisms available through a Leg Club environment influenced well-being. l Method: Participants were community Leg Club members. Socio-demographic data was collected, and the Well-being in Wounds Inventory (WOWI) administered to assess ‘wound worries,’ ‘personal resources,’ and ‘well-being’. Participants’ perceived social situation, length of time attending a Leg Club, wound duration, and feelings about their physical appearance were also measured. l Results: The subjects recruited (n=49) were aged between 50 and 94 years (mean=75.34, standard deviation=10.31). Membership of a Leg Club did impact well-being factors. Time spent at a Leg Club improved ‘personal resources’ over time. ‘Perceived social situation’ predicted key aspects of well-being, as did ‘time spent attending a Leg Club’ and ‘feelings about physical appearance.’ Social support and relief from social isolation were important aspects of Leg Club membership for participants. l Conclusion: Attending a Leg Club enhances well-being in people living with a chronic wound; social support has an important role to play in this relationship. Future research should consider the specific interplay of social support mechanisms of Leg Club, and other relevant wound-related variables to optimise patient well-being and treatment outcomes.

The Goal IS to Connect. “The problem with communication ... is the ILLUSION that it has been —George Bernard Shaw accomplished.” 19 March 2013 *And a little bit more 1 Presentation Excellence “The problem with communication ... is the ILLUSION that it has been accomplished.”—George Bernard Shaw I’ve given a tankload of speeches—about 3,000. I suppose I’ve learned a little bit along the way. But what follows is both limited and idiosyncratic. The New York Times’ great reporter-editorialist Johnny Apple wrote a book titled Johnny Apple’s Europe. It was a tour guide that wasn’t a tour guide. That is, it was simply and solely about places he loved in Europe; hence, unabashedly idiosyncratic and not comprehensive in any way, shape or form. This essay is of the same character. It’s about how I give a speech, period. And, moreover, how I give a public speech. Though I think a fair share of it’s universal, the discussion is a long way from “How to give a pitch to a Board of Directors,” or some such. So, then, the message is: Take it for what it’s worth, please, no more and perhaps no less. I’ll begin by giving away my one-and-only “secret,” followed by my other one-and-only “secret,” then that idiosyncratic list of thoughts—139 to be exact.* The One Big Secret: Presentation As Intimate Conversation An effective speech to 5,000 people is an intimate, 1-on-1 conversation!

    2017 ANNUAL REPORT The Next Frontier Is Local ProPublica staff reacts to our receiving the Pulitzer gold medal for Public Service, April 10, 2017. (Demetrius Freeman for ProPublica) Highlights of the Year at ProPublica Impact 2017 was a dramatic year for real-world change spurred by our work. Pro- Publica’s journalism fueled reform across the U.S., including the halting of several Facebook practices that facilitated racial discrimination and hate speech; the full pardon of a wrongfully convicted man; steps to address government conflicts of interest, from resignations to congres- sional calls for oversight; the passage of the nation’s first law to tackle al- gorithmic discrimination; and legal protection of workers’ comp benefits for undocumented immigrants. Memorable Our work unmasked secretive deregulation teams with industry ties that President Donald Trump installed across the federal government, and stories told heartbreaking stories of the maternal mortality crisis in the U.S. We revealed abusive federal land seizures in the building of a fence along the U.S.-Mexico border and bankruptcy practices that have kept generations of African Americans in debt. Our reporting unearthed the tragic story of a drug cartel’s deadly assault on a Mexican town (and the failed DEA operation that triggered it) and spotlighted communities nationwide contaminated with toxic waste from military operations.
