  When comparing individuals in urban and any type of rural area, differences exist in their insurance status with the greatest number of uninsured individuals living in isolated areas (Lenardson, Ziller, Coburn & Anderson, 2009). Furthermore, individuals who live in rural areas are less likely to receive recommended cardiac treatment such as fibrinolytic or percutaneous coronary interventions (PCI), compared to individuals living in urban areas (Baldwin et al., 2004).

  Differences in Autonomy and Nurse-Physician Interaction Among Rural and Small Urban Acute Care Registered Nurses in Canada

summary:
  The few Canadian studies that included rural hospital RNs in their study (Laschinger et al., 2001; Shamian et al., 2002) were conducted at a provincial level and therefore do not provide a broad understanding of Canadian RNs who practice within rural and small urban hospital settings. It is evident in the literature that nurses in small rural hospitals must have a broad knowledge base and that they must practice as expert generalists (Bushy & Bushy, 2001; Rosenthal, 1996).

Some of the recommendations made included: • Safe, sustainable service models should be developed in partnership with rural and remote communities, the Commonwealth government and other service providers; • Education and training providers will be engaged to assist with increasing workforce supply in rural and remote areas and better develop ‘generalist’ roles including rural generalists doctors, advanced rural and remote nurses, nurse practitioners and paramedic primary care providers; •

  “Her World Gets Smaller and Smaller With Nothing To Look Forward To” Dimensions of Social Inclusion and Exclusion Among Rural Dementia Care Networks

summary:
  A critical gerontological perspective is used to examine ways in which place (rural), political, economic, and social issues contribute to social inclusion and exclusion at the micro level through the experiences of rural dementia care networks. This study contributes evidence that challenges the myth of the idyllic nature of rural places through a critique of rural dementia care networks using a social inclusion/exclusion lens within a human rights framework.

NLN also strongly advocates that careers in nursing education be promoted vigorously to talented neophytes and experienced nurses who have already demonstrated nurse educator skills, and that funding to support the preparation of nurse educators and the development of the science of nursing education be increased significantly.

  Since nursing cost is the single largest item in providing care for hospitalized clients, nurse managers must make nursing staffing decisions that control labor expenditures and yet allow for the provision of quality care. As part of these two studies, nurse managers were interviewed weekly for a three-month period to determine factors they considered in making personnel changes and the changes in personnel that they made to improve cost or quality of care.

  Confounding the complexities of rural health care are issues related to self-reliance, resisting help from “outsiders”, and seeking advice and treatment from neighbors and friends prior to accessing conventional medical care (Long & Weinert, 1989). Rural women may have different expectations about access to health care, as well as differing conceptions of health and personal responsibility toward health behaviors, when compared to urban or suburban women.

  On Breast Cancer Detection, Directors of Nursing and Female Residents: A Study in Rural Long-Term Care

summary:
  The survey began with an introduction and purpose, and proceeded with fixed- choices, Likert-scales, and qualitative open-ended questions considering (a) an estimate of how many elderly women in each LTC facility receive a regular clinical breast exam— by either the physician or nurse, and of how many women residents receive a mammogram per American Cancer Society guidelines; (b) items reflecting components of the Health Belief Model, which identifies variables that may affect a woman’s perception of breast cancer susceptibility and breast cancer seriousness, as well as the perception of the benefits of breast cancer screening and barriers to screening; (c) the responding DON’s perception of ability to influence care for the residents in his/her facility; (d) the personal value placed on practices for breast cancer screening by the female DONs themselves; and (e) demographic information. Focus on breast cancer screening.

  Many agencies are working short staffed; many healthcare providers are impelled to increase the number of patients seen daily; patients feel the impact with shorter physician visits or less attention by nurses, social workers, and other healthcare providers. In another editorial, I asked nurses to use the FICA tool for both personal assessment of one’s spiritual history as well as that of patients.

  “You have to rely on everyone and they on you”: Interdependence and the team-based rural nursing preceptorship

summary:
  These networks are welcoming places for students, not least because rural health care teams are eager to recruit new nurses in an era of critical staff shortages ( If our findings and those of others (Hegney et al., 2002; Kulig et al., 2009) are any indication, rural health care teams are the ideal crucible for the formation of such confidence and trust.

  Oregon's Economic Crisis and the National Nursing Shortage: A Transformational Opportunity for Rural Areas

summary:
  The role of rural human service and health care providers is challenging due to the diversity of hats worn and the responsibility attributed to the role. The multifaceted role of the rural nurse and the complex needs of rural human service and health care consumers (who often present in acute or critical need) were also intimidating and taxing (Tone, 1999).

summary:
  Consistent with the findings of previous studies that used TOFHLA to determine the level of health literacy (Gazmaraian, Williams, Peel, & Baker, 2003; Montalto & Spiegler, 2001; Yin, Dreyer, Fotlin, van Schaick, & Mendelsohn, 2007), the participants in this study who had completed a higher level of education and reported a higher income also had higher health literacy scores. Those with higher income also had higher health literacy (TOFHLA scores) (p=.008) and regression analysis revealed that smoking status was also directly associated with functional health literacy (p=.004 Conclusions: The findings confirm that rural health care providers need to be diligent in assuring that health education materials and verbal instructions are presented in the most simple and easy to read format in order to maximize understanding.

  Compared to urban hospitals rural hospitals are smaller (2/3 have less than 100 beds), have less technology, fewer nurses per patient, and nurses with less education (Bushy, 2013; Skillman, Plazzo, Keepnews, & Hart, 2006). A comparison of rural and urban patient safety indicator rates (PSIs) found, that observed rates were higher for small urban hospitals than for rural hospitals for nine PSIs, including death in low mortality DRGs, decubitus ulcer, failure to rescue, and selected infections due to medical care (Vartak, Ward, & Vaughn, 2010).

  Although this secondary analysis found that rural women have similar cardiovascular risk factors and demographic characteristics, this study highlights the need for clinicians to carefully consider the rural community characteristics for primary prevention. Rural women are more vulnerable compared to urban women because they have higher incidence of heart disease and diabetes, and their access to preventive health screening and services may be limited (Feresu, Zhang, Puumala, Ullrich, & Anderson, 2008; Hageman, Pullen, Walker, & Boeckner, 2010).

  Environmental Influences on Children’s Physical Activity and Diets in Rural Oregon: Results of a Youth Photovoice Project

summary:
  A recent national study found that rural children were 25% more likely to be overweight or obese than their urban counterparts (Lutfiyya, Lipsky, Wisdom- Behounek, & Inpanbutr-Martinkus, 2007). On the other hand, it is conceivable that the rural environment may be perceived as safer and that rural children may spend more time outdoors and have more access to fresh fruits and vegetables along with less access to fast food restaurants than their urban and suburban counterparts – factors that have been linked to increased physical activity and healthy eating behaviors (Baranowski, Thompson, DuRant, Baranowski, & Puhl, 1993; French, Story, Neumark-Sztainer, Fulkerson, & Hannan, 2001; Hearn et al., 1998; Klesges, Eck, Hanson, Haddock, & Klesges, 1990; Sallis et al., 1993; Timperio, Crawford, Telford, & Salmon, 2004).

  Live Health Assessment in a Virtual Class: Eliminating Educational Burdens for Rural Distance Learners

summary:
  As an incentive to return to school, and to help alleviate some of the burden that rural nursing students face returning to school, the grant allowed us to provide a laptop computer and cover the cost of internet for these students while they were enrolled in the nursing program. Lamb and Shea (2006) contended that even though emerging technologies are being used extensively in the health care setting, “few undergraduate programs expose nursing students to the full range of technologies available” (p. 7).

  The Prevalence of Cardiovascular Disease and Associated Risk Factors in the Old Order Amish in Northern Indiana: A Preliminary Study

summary:
  Additionally, lower than comparative rates of known myocardial infarctions (-7.5% males, -1.8% females) may have represented a lack of diagnosis with electrocardiograms or other diagnostic tests, but may have indicated the possibility that the Amish do not arrive at the hospital in time to be treated for myocardial infarctions. An additional finding was the high prevalence of depression in both Amish genders compared to rural Americans (19.0% and 22.1% vs. 6.1% both genders) and anxiety (11.4% and 14.7% vs.3.6% and 6.6%).

summary:
  Psychological distress was linked to the physical, geographic, and organizational environments in which rural nurses work, the emotional demands of working with patients (Terry et al., 2015), management of life- threatening conditions, and challenges of dual relationships (Kenny et al., 2007). Those identified were diverse in nature and included emotional toil (Kenny et al., 2007), emotional strain (Rose & Glass, 2009), psychological distress (Opie et al., 2010; Opie et al., 2011), emotional exhaustion (Opie et al., 2010; Opie et al., 2011; Singh et al., 2015), burnout (O'Neill, 2010; Opie et al., 2010; Singh et al., 2015; Terry et al., 2015; Hegney et al., 2015), compassion fatigue (O'Neill, 2010; Terry et al., 2015; Hegney et al., 2015), secondary trauma or secondary traumatic stress (STS) (O'Neill, 2010; Hegney et al., 2015), vicarious trauma (Lenthall et al., 2009), and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

summary:
  Barriers identified for rural women include being too tired to participate in planned PA (Olsen, 2013; Peterson et al., 2013), lack of time and motivation (Osuji et al., 2006; Peterson et al., 2013), family and caregiving commitments (Olsen, 2013; Paluck, Allerdins, Kealy & Dorgan, 2006, Peterson et al., 2013, Wilcox, Castro, King, Houseman, & Brownson, 2000), fear of injury (Deshpande, Baker, Lovegreen, & Brownson, 2005) fear of “overdoing it” (Wilcox, Oberrecht et al., 2005), and being “too old” (Olsen, 2013). The mean age of menopause for rural women (M = 48.2, SD = 5.9) and for urban women (M = 49.6, SD = 5.5) was similar.
