Yoksulluk, muhtaçlık, işsizlik, sığınmacı göçü, bölgeler arası iç göç, kentleşme süreci doğrudan veya dolaylı olarak toplumun tüm nüfus gruplarını etkilemektedir.

Bu durum, çocuğun sağlık düzeylerini biyolojik, fiziksel ve ruhsal olarak olumsuz etkilemekte, toplum kökenli hastalıklar riskleri ile karşı karşıya kalmasına neden olmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın hedefi, sağlık hizmetleri kapsamında sokakta çalışan çocuklarda sık görülen sağlık problemleri, hemşirelerin sokak çocuklarına yönelik tutumları ve sağlık hizmetleri sunumunda üstlendikleri rollerin belirlenmesidir.Publication Metadata only The relation between quality of life and future expectations for refugee adolescents(Wiley, 2021) Ekim, Ayfer; N/A; Özçevik Subaşı, Damla; Ocakçı, Ayşe Ferda; Beşer, Ayşe; Sümengen, Aylin Akça; PhD Student; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; PhD Student; Graduate School of Health Sciences; School of Nursing; School of Nursing; Graduate School of Health Sciences; N/A; 1729; 143490; 257066Problem: Refugee children and their families encounter various challenges in a new country.

Conclusions: The results showed that a positive significant relation was detected between quality-of-life scores and future expectations' scores. Understanding the factors affecting future expectations of refugee adolescents will help to plan interventions compatible with issues confronting adolescents.Publication Metadata only Evaluation of the effect of an education program using cartoons and comics on disease management in children with asthma: a randomized controlled study(Taylor & Francis) Sümengen, Aylin Akça; Ocakçı, Ayşe Ferda; PhD Student; Faculty Member; Graduate School of Health Sciences; School of Nursing; 257066; 1729Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of an education program, the Health Promotion Program for Children with Asthma (HPPCA), on disease control and quality of life in children aged between 7 and 11 and diagnosed with asthma. The program was developed using cartoons and color-in materials and was based on the health promotion model developed by Nola J. Pender and brain-based learning theories. Materials and Methods: The sample of the study consisted of 74 children between the ages of 7 and 11 who presented to the respiratory diseases' unit of a university hospital in Istanbul. All participants were given basic asthma education by their physicians, and were then randomly assigned to a group that received the HPPCA program or a control group that received no further education. After the HPPCA education was applied to the experimental group alone, both groups were administered two post-tests as a follow-up and retest at the end of the first and fourth month after the intervention. The standardized Sociodemographic Question Form, the Childhood Asthma Control Test (C-ACT) and the Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ) were used for the follow-up. Results: The asthma control and quality of life scores of the children included in the experimental group were found to be significantly higher compared to the control group at the first- and fourth-month follow-ups (p<.001). The rate of school absenteeism decreased significantly in children who received HPPCA education at the first follow-up compared to the children who did not receive the education (p<.05). Practice Implications: The present study found that the HPPCA education, whose design was based on the health promotion model, and which was supported by cartoons in order to attract the attention of the children, was effective. The HPPCA was proven to create a sense of control over asthma and to improve the quality of life in the children. It is recommended that there be an asthma nurse in pediatric allergy and immunology outpatient clinics who can specifically provide an HPPCA. Further studies should be conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of this program, which was examined in the present study for the first time with a randomized controlled method.Publication Open Access Healthcare workers' anxieties and coping strategies during the COVID-19 pandemic in Turkey(Wiley, 2021) Özçevik Subaşı, Damla; Sümengen, Aylin Akça; Şimşek, Enes; Ocakçı, Ayşe Ferda; PhD Student; Faculty Member; Graduate School of Health Sciences; School of Nursing; N/A; N/A; N/A; 1729Purpose: this study aimed to investigate the anxiety levels of healthcare workers and the coping strategies they used for stress during the COVID-19 pandemic.
