Yet, “innovation” is probably not what most people first think of when they try to describe public health services. “Old fashioned” maybe, but certainly not “innovative.” A New Paradigm At Tri-County Health Department, we like to: Think outside the box. Push the envelope. Shatter some stereotypes. Break some rules. Raise the bar. And all of the other overused clichés depicting innovation and creativity. But, in the process, we make it all seem as Easy as pie. Since we do not sell a product, our incentive for innovation is not profit-driven or based on competition to increase market share. It’s driven by one thing—finding new ways to improve the health of the population. Still, however pioneering they are, each of our innovations still follow the basic blueprint of public health: assess the major causes of death and disability, identify risk factors, find and apply effective solutions, then constantly evaluate and improve our programs even more. Milestones and Masterpieces In this annual report, we highlight the accomplishments of Tri-County Health Department along with numerous historic public health innovations—things as diverse as vaccinations, chlorine bleach, paper cups and the birth control pill.

  • The Effect of Altruistic Motivation on Motor Skills Productivity
    Running head: ALTRUISITC MOTIVATION ON MOTOR SKILLS PRODUCTIVITY “Pieces of the Puzzle”: The Effect of Altruistic Motivation on Motor Skills Productivity Emma Skiba Psychology Major Dr. Patrick Smith Thesis for Completion of the Honors Program At Florida Southern College April 25, 2019 ALTRUSITIC MOTIVATION ON MOTOR SKILLS PRODUCTIVITY 2 Abstract Altruistic motivation is the driving force behind charities, volunteerism, and random acts of kindness; it is the motivation to give a resource (eg., time, money) without the anticipation of personal gain. The purpose of this study is to quantitatively show the effect of awareness and altruistic motivation on behavior through assigning philanthropic significance to a mundane task. The participants made bracelets that were presented as either increasing awareness for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or having no external purpose. In the altruistic motivation condition, the task was given a purpose by highlighting its goal to raise funds for a charity supporting autism awareness. Participants in the altruistic motivation condition made a slightly greater number of bracelets than those in the control condition. Additionally, a survey measured the participants’ compassion toward humanity. The participants with high levels of compassion in the altruism condition completed the greatest number of bracelets. Participants in the altruistic motivation condition best performed the task of making bracelets, showing the impact of altruism on a controlled activity. This research shows that inspiring empathy and giving an external purpose to a task can increase task performance.

Some of you have seen me before. Today I am directing more of my speech to candidates. I know a few of you have reached out to talk to me about resources and how to be more sustainable. I’ll be more direct with this. So bear with me. As some of you already know, sustainability & responsible land management practices are of the utmost importance to me, both as a student and a resident here in Wilmington. Some of you are running for executive positions in SGA right now and I would like to personally thank those of you that have decided to include sustainability on your platforms. I think there is no better time than now to focus on this topic, especially with all our new development on campus. With that said, we will hold you accountable to both your words and your actions. Saying that you are a business major and don’t know much about sustainable practices is entirely unacceptable when asked about your sustainable action plan. If you are naming this as an important topic on your platform, you need to be prepared to tell us how you will approach the issue. If there are specific organizations you plan on reaching out to for information and project ideas, please do so and clarify to your supporters which organizations those are.

  • Querying Everyday Scarcity: a Feminist Political Economy Analysis of Kidney Dialysis and Transplantation in Rural British Columbia
    Querying everyday scarcity: A feminist political economy analysis of kidney dialysis and transplantation in rural British Columbia Julia Brassolotto A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Health, York University, Toronto, Ontario October, 2014 ©Julia Brassolotto 2014 Abstract This thesis uses a feminist political economy perspective to analyze the findings from a case study regarding kidney dialysis and transplantation in rural and remote British Columbia. This case study was conducted in order to investigate the concept "scarcity," which is very common in organ transfer discourse. Critical ethnography and document analysis were used to examine the ways in which scarcity manifests in policy, practice, and everyday life. The main areas of focus include: the systemic context for the practices; the intersection of social location and geographic isolation; the intersection of gender, work and health; the implications of work in the local resource industry for renal health and renal replacement options; the role of unpaid care work provided by family members; and the implications of shifting care from institutions to families and individuals – particularly in a rural and remote context. Broadly, I argue that the scarcity of transplantable organs remains the dominant public discourse, that this discourse informs policies and practices, and that, despite these trends, lived experiences of scarcity at this site of study have more to do with the scarcity of human and health care resources, particular services, and health and life-sustaining resources for patients. ii Dedication For Phil. iii Acknowledgements There are many people who deserve acknowledgement for their roles in the completion of this dissertation.
