The concluding remarks of the case study analysis of community intervention strategies and resultant changes are presented in this chapter. The causal relationship between various variables under study and destination quality improvement and stakeholder opinions on community intervention strategies are included subsequently. The study contributions to theory, practice, and society, and the contemporary significance of the study is discussed. The significance and implications both theoretical as well as managerial are also explored and presented along with future research opportunities. The chapter ends with a few constructive suggestions and recommendations to strengthen institutional community intervention in ecotourism destinations.

Skilled nursing facilities are beginning to introduce Self-Medication Programs (SMP), in which patients meet with a staff member and learn how to manage their own medications throughout their rehabilitation stay. This program allows for patients to keep their medications in their room and take them on their own without direct nursing administration. In the process, it is the goal for patients to regain independence for their medical care prior to discharge from a skilled nursing facility with an outcome of increased adherence and medication knowledge. Herein we describe a veteran, 57 years of age, who participated in the Cincinnati VA SMP in order to regain his independence poststroke.

Abstract Functional immobility has demonstrated a higher risk of all-cause mortality in geriatric population. It is noted that musculoskeletal pain is one major factor involved with geriatric functional immobility. The fascial distortion model (FDM) utilizes pathognomonic physical gestures to diagnose and treat musculoskeletal pain. In this case study, a long-term nursing facility patient with significantly prolonged wheelchair-to-bed transfer presented with several upper and lower extremity fascial distortions. After FDM treatment, the patient demonstrated a moderate return of functional mobility. This case presents the utility of FDM treatment in cases of decreased functional mobility due to musculoskeletal pain as well as treatment for patients in skilled nursing facility settings.
