A Shift from Nursing Homes to Managed Care at Home
Faced with soaring health care costs and shrinking Medicare
and Medicaid financing, nursing home operators are closing some facilities and
embracing an emerging model of care that allows many elderly patients to remain
in their homes and still receive the medicai and social Services available in
institutions.
In the newer model, a team of doctors, social workers, physical and
occupational therapists and other specialists provide managed care for
individual patients at home, at adult day-care centers and in visits to
specialists. Studies suggest that it can be less expensive than traditional
nursing homes while providing better medicai outcomes.
The number of such programs has expanded rapidly, growing from 42
programs in 22 States in 2007 to 84 in 29 States today. In New York City, a
program run by a division of Center Light Health System, formerly known as the
Be th Abraham Family of Health Services, has over 2,500 participants at 12
sites in the metropolitan area.
"It used to be that if you needed some kind of long-term care, the
only way you could get that Service was in a nursing home, with 24-hour nursing
care," said Jason A. Helgerson, the Medicaid director for New York State.
"That meant we were institutionalizing Service for people, many of whom
didn't need 24-hour nursing care. If a person can get a Service like home
health care or Meais on Wheels, they can stay in an apartment and thrive in
that environment, and it's a lower cost to taxpayers."

Navy preps submarines for lst female officers
HARTFORD, Conn. — For Ensign Peggy LeGrand, the biggest concern about
serving on a submarine is not spending weeks at a time in tight quarters with
an entirely male crew. What worries her is the scrutiny that comes with
breaking one of the last gender barriers in the military.
"I have a feeling more people will be focused on us. Our mistakes
and successes will be magnified more than they deserve", said
LeGrand, a 25-year-old Naval Academy graduate from Amarillo, Texas.
LeGrand is among a small group of female officers who are training at
sites including Groton, Connecticut, to join the elite submarine force
beginning later this year. While the Navy says it is not treating them any
differently from their male counterparts, officials have been working to
prepare the submarine crews — and the sailors1 wives — for one of the most
dramatic changes in the 111-year history of the Navy’s "silent
Service."
The change is a source of anxiety for others, including the wives of
submariners, who worry the close contact at sea could lead to sailors'
cheating. The issue really has to do with the creation of a relationship that
becomes very close and then results in further relations ashore. That is, of
course, what bothers the wives. "They know the kind of relationships that
happens between the shipmates", said retired Navy Rear Adm. W. J. Holland
Jr., a former submarine commander.
The initial class of 24 women will be divided among four submarines,
where they will be outnumbered by men by a ratio of roughly 1 to 25. The
enlisted ranks, which make up about 90 percent of a sub's 160-sailor crew, are
not open to women although the Navy is exploring modifications to create
separate bunks for men and women.
The female officers, many of them engineering graduates from Annapolis,
are accustomed to being in the minority, and so far they say they hardly feel
like outsiders. The nuclear power school that is part of their training, for
example, has been open to women for years because the Navy in 1994 reversed a
ban on females serving on its surface ships, including nuclear-powered vesseis.

Genetically Modified Foods, Pros and Cons.
Genetically
modified foods (GMs)are becoming increasingly coirtmon in many countries.
However, before one opts for any of these foods, it is very important to know
about their pros and cons.
There
are a variety of reasons for developing GMs. For instance, some foods are
genetically modified to prevent the occurrence of allergies after consumption,
while some are developed to improve their shelf life.
Though
the seeds of GMs are quite expensive, their cost of production is said to be
lesser than that of the traditional crops for these foods do have
natural resistance towards damaging pests and insects. This reduces the
necessity of exposing crops to hazardous Chemicals. It is also said that GMs
grow faster. Due to this, productivity increases, providing the population with
more food. At times, GMs crops can be grown at places with unfavorable climatic
conditions whereas a normal crop can grow only in specific season or under some
favorable climatic conditions.
The
biggest threat caused by GMs is that they can have harmful effects on
the human body. It is believed that they can cause diseases which are immune to
antibiotics. Moreover, according to some experts, people who consume such foods
have high chances of developing câncer. Besides, not much is known about their
long-term effects on human beings.
In many
countries, manufacturers do not mention on the labei that foods are genetically
modified because they think that this would affect their business. However,
this is not a good practice as consumers do not get the chance to decide
whether they should really opt for these foods, Experts are of the opinion that
with the increase of genetically modified foods, developing countries would
start depending more on industrial countries because it is likely that the food
production would be controlled by them in the time to come.
