The Role of Occupational Therapy in the Prevention and Management of Chronic Conditions at a Free Primary Care Clinic
Get PDFThe prevalence of chronic conditions is a growing public health concern in the U.S. The physical, social, and emotional impacts of chronic conditions are exacerbated by social and physical determinants of health, resulting in occupational injustice. This study took place at a free primary care clinic, the Ithaca Free Clinic (IFC), and set out to determine the need for occupational therapy services for the prevention and management of chronic conditions, supports and barriers to clients participating in occupational therapy services, and supports and barriers to providers referring to occupational therapy services. Results of this study indicate that clients with chronic conditions could benefit from occupational therapy to address the everyday impacts of their condition(s). Clients without chronic conditions could also benefit from occupational therapy to prevent the development of chronic conditions. Both personal health beliefs and social and physical environmental barriers impeded clients’ participation in occupational therapy services at the IFC. Referrals to occupational therapy services can be better facilitated by attending to internal barriers specifically at the IFC and educating other health professionals on the scope of occupational therapy. Outcomes of this study add to literature supporting occupational therapy intervention for this population and aid in advocating for this emerging practice area
Disk-resolved photometric modeling and properties of asteroid (101955) Bennu
No full text© 2020 The Authors OSIRIS-REx (Origins, Spectral Interpretation, Resource Identification, and Security–Regolith Explorer) is a NASA mission to return a sample of asteroid (101955) Bennu. Photometric modeling of Bennu\u27s surface is a key element of both sample site characterization and our broader scientific understanding of the asteroid. Bennu\u27s heterogeneous surface presents substantial variation in reflectance and produces a scattered dataset that poses a challenge to photometric modeling. We show that the resolution of the shape model with which we calculate photometric angles strongly affects the accuracy of the analysis, as well as the efficacy of subsequent photometric corrections. We use global imaging data to fit empirical photometric models of the surface. These models represent the average behavior of Bennu\u27s surface and can be used beyond this work to photometrically correct panchromatic and color basemaps of Bennu and perform albedo analyses of individual features on Bennu\u27s surface. Bennu\u27s global photometry reveals a moderate opposition effect and detectable phase reddening, both of which suggest a macroscopically rough surface, which is confirmed by centimeter-scale images of the asteroid
