Funeral Industry

The funeral industry has grown rapidly over the years.  It is very evident that in the Philippines, many funeral parlors are sprouting all over the country as well funeral insurance policy companies.  The funeral industry has taken more major roles in the burial rituals, funeral arrangements, body disposition procedures, last rites, and after care services to attend to the special needs. One of the richest customs in celebrating a funeral event was the Chinese society.  Chinese was well known for their custom of following a lot of superstitions.  Filipinos also believed in superstitions like the Chinese, but their way of celebrating the funeral rites was different.  These customs make managing a funeral event difficult. That is why seeking professional guidance and support is a good idea. The study looks into the comparative study of the availment of the funeral planning management service among Chinese and Filipino to observe the difference and similarities on the level of awareness, interest, the desire and actions of the two different cultures regarding the funeral planning management service. The researcher’s purpose was to make a basis for developing an event strategy that would facilitate the acceptability of the funeral planning management service in the Philippines.

Water Service

<p>The Operational Water Service of C3S (developed by the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI)) aims to help a broad range of water managers with water allocation, flood management, ecological status and industrial water use, to adapt their strategies in order to adapt to climate variability and change. The aim is to speed up the workflow in climate-change adaptation by using seasonal hydrological forecasts and climate-impact indicators. This is done by offering an interactive web application with refined data, guidance and practical showcases to water managers across Europe. Policy makers will find a comprehensive overview for Europe with key messages and consultants can use the service for developing climate impact assessments and adaptation strategies.</p><p>The development of the current operational climate service for water management is based on the experience from two previous proof-of-concepts and will also be aligned with the hydrological model system of the Copernicus Emergency Management Service (CEMS).  The service is uses data from the Climate Data Store and the operational hydrological seasonal forecasting system runs entirely in the European Centre for Medium range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) technical environment, although developed by SMHI.</p><p>The operational Water Service of C3S will be launched during the spring of 2021, and a series of activities and user interactions will be organised to ensure that the applications developed for the service fulfil the users’ needs. Here, we present the development process of the operational service and key outcomes from co-design interactions and resulting applications. The key issues identified by the user community were: i) clear visualisation and graphical representation of skill in seasonal forecasts and confidence in climate projections, ii) need of detailed documentation and process transparency in hydrological models and production of data, iii) user guidance and tutorials are needed for better understanding of the applications, and iv) workflows and scripts for indicator production in new applications for developers of information systems.</p>

Funding Opportunities

This study presents findings of an evaluation of a community-based crisis service that used systems enhancement funding to modify services. In addition to developing timelier crisis services and increasing mobile capacity, the service adaptations focused on broadening the scope of the crisis service and addressing the follow-up needs of individuals served. While service development was guided by the research and best practice literature, there was little guidance available on how to address the latter two goals. The development of a transitional case management model integrated with crisis services was an innovation in service delivery. The evaluation used existing databases to compare crisis service delivery between two distinct periods (i.e., “old model” vs. “new model”). Study findings suggest that the new model did lead to the expected changes in service utilization patterns, specifically to increased service capacity, greater access to mobile crisis services, improved access to a broader community population, and more appropriate patterns of service delivery with respect to fewer days of crisis service and exit dispositions more consistent with crisis resolution. Rankings of acceptance of the new crisis service by the local service network varied greatly across service sectors, suggesting the need for more strategic community outreach efforts. The findings indicate that policy and funding opportunities within the mental health system need to be flexible and sensitive enough to address emerging issues in the field and to facilitate service innovations.

The article is devoted to the definition of priority areas for improving the moral and ethical foundations of public service and substantiation of the algorithm of their formation. It is revealed that the important qualities that are necessary for a public servant in professional activity are the ability to self-organize, to have the skills of self-management, the ability to rationally set goals, bordering on high rates of intellectual development and education.The algorithm of formation of moral and ethical bases of public service which is offered to consider through a administrative cycle consisting in consistent and complex realization of functions of management, such as: planning (development of the Concept of formation of moral and ethical bases of public service and a complex of actions for its realization) is substantiated; organization and coordination (creation of a "strong" organizational culture; creation of coordinating bodies; organization of continuous professional and ethical education and self-education); motivation (application of moral and psychological methods of motivation; providing public servants with a decent level of remuneration, which will depend on the results of their work; encouragement of creative initiatives, etc.) and control and evaluation (internal and external control over ethical principles, norms, standards of behavior; use of tools for assessing the level of formation of moral and ethical competencies of a public servant).The priority directions of improvement of moral and ethical bases of public service by: legal regulation of the given question (development and acceptance of the Code of Ethics of the public servant at the central level and Rules of ethical behavior in each separate body of public power) are defined; creation of special structural units (Department of Public Service Ethics at the central level and separate departments or specialists in the field personnel management service); development of organizational culture; updating the content of programs of professional and ethical training of public servants and their self-education; improving the motivation of professional activity of public servants; implementation of systematic control and assessment of the level of formation of moral and ethical competencies of a public servant.

BACKGROUND Effective health management of people at high risk of stroke is challenging. OBJECTIVE To identify and explore the experiences of health management among people at high risk of stroke in order to inform ideas for health management service development for this population. METHODS Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 31stroke people at high risk of stroke. The interviews were collated and analyzed using Colaizzi’s 7-step method. RESULTS The experiences of health management in people at high risk of stroke were described as ‘Survival in the gap’. Themes identified limited knowledge of health management, lack of confidence in health management and poor adherence with health management. The value of health management experience was highlighted and included: becoming active learners, promoting social interaction and enhancing self-health management. Health management was seen to be sensitive to multiple influencing factors including: The severity and complexity of diseases, family income and social support. CONCLUSIONS Health management of people at high risk of stroke is challenging and they ‘survive in the gap’. They learn to manage their ongoing health based mainly on their own experiences. Government and healthcare providers should pay attention to the situation for this special population and be devoted to health system reform, financial support and social support to manage the condition in the longer term.
