“…The ecological model for health promotion (McLeroy et al, ) was used to guide this study. The model recognizes the influence of the social–ecological environment on health behaviors and was operationalized with the Omaha System using a process described in prior studies (Olsen, Horning, et al, ; Olsen et al, ; Olsen, Thorson, et al, ). In summary, the intrapersonal, interpersonal, and community levels of the model were aligned with the Physiological, Psychosocial, and Environmental domains and problems of the Omaha System Problem Classification Scheme, respectively.…”

Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate the physical activity (PA) and associated factors among insufficiently active adults attending Family Health Centers in Istanbul, Turkey using the Omaha System. Design and Sample This descriptive‐correlational study guided by the Ecological Model for Health Promotion used a convenience sample of 335 Turkish adults with insufficient PA behavior defined as an Omaha System PA Behavior rating <4. Measurements Measures included Omaha System problems; Knowledge, Behavior, and Status ratings; demographics; and ecological factors operationalized with the Omaha System Problem Classification Scheme. Data were analyzed using chi‐square, independent t tests, and logistic regression. Results Participants were females (76.7%) and males (23.3%) with a mean age of 38.5 years. Almost half (43.6%) engaged in no appropriate PA Behavior. The most common Physiological, Psychosocial, and Environmental domain problem were oral health (61.2%), mental health (21.5%), and neighborhood/workplace safety (41.2%), respectively. Logistic regression revealed marital status, age, sex, and physiological and environmental domain problems significantly predicted PA behavior. Conclusions Interventions tailored to insufficiently active Turkish adults should include assessing for physiological health problems; targeting older, married adults; and advocating for policy change that supports the provision of safe, affordable, accessible, and culturally appropriate places for physical activity.

“…Two well‐established frameworks were reported upon the Omaha system interventions: teaching, guidance and counselling; treatments and procedures; case management and surveillance (Olsen, Baisch, & Monsen, 2017) and the Public Health Intervention Wheel: policy development; social marketing; advocacy; community organising; coalition building; collaboration; consultation; screening and outreach (Schaffer, Anderson, & Rising, 2016). These frameworks were identified as robust guides for public health nursing practice, and the recording infrastructure behind these systems was considered a strength to the future measurement of outcomes from public health nursing interventions (Olsen et al, 2017; Schaffer et al, 2016).…”

“…They were especially important in initially engaging clients as it was recognised that many of the groups PHNs work with often do not access services and are variously described as “hard to reach” or “seldom heard” (Cotton, 2015; Noonan, Galvin, Doody, & Jomeen, 2017). Once engagement has been achieved, encouraging sustained contact and motivating clients to make lifestyle changes were also viewed as a relationship‐building skill needed by the public health nurse (Astbury, Shepherd, & Cheyne, 2017; Olsen et al, 2017; Riding, Glendening, & Heaslip, 2017).…”

Aims and objectives This scoping review commissioned by the Public Health England, WHO collaborating Centre, aimed to explore the models and frameworks which enable nurses to develop their public health practice and deliver public health interventions to individuals, families and communities. Background There is a plethora of literature regarding the role, activities and scope of practice undertaken by public health nurses across the world. However, only two reviews have explored the models and frameworks used for public health nursing practice. Design The study drew upon an established framework with a narrative review drawing upon five methodological steps. Methods A search of databases, Medline, PsycINFO, Embase, CINHAL and British Nursing Index, was undertaken. The search took place between April 2018 and June 2018 retrieving 9,513 peer‐reviewed articles published from 2008. Results Ninety‐five studies were retrieved and analysed thematically. From an initial review of literature, two themes were identified: public health models used in practice and models used in public health education. Within the first theme, three subthemes were emerged: Characteristics of the interventions; Characteristics of the public health nurse; and Lack of measurable health benefits. Within the second theme, three subthemes were identified: Faculty and Students Working Together; The Experiential Academic Approach, and What works in Educating Nurses for Public Health. Conclusion The review identified that many models and frameworks are used in practice. However, within public health practice there is a limited evidence base and it fails to demonstrate that the frameworks and models developed for practice result in measurable health benefits on an individual or population level. However, within education innovative models were apparent with collaborative partnerships enabling preregistration nursing students to develop public health nursing competencies. Relevance to clinical practice Innovative approaches to education of preregistration nursing students could point the way forward for the delivery of public health nursing practice.

A B S T R A C TObjectives: The goals of this study were to examine the feasibility of using ontologybased text mining with CaringBridge social media journal entries in order to understand journal content from a whole-person perspective. Specific aims were to describe Omaha System problem concept frequencies in the journal entries over a four-step process overall, and relative to Omaha System Domains; and to examine the four step method including the use of standardized terms and related words. Design: Ontology-based retrospective observational feasibility study using text mining methods. Sample: A corpus of social media text consisting of 13,757,900 CaringBridge journal entries from June 2006 to June 2016. Measures: The Omaha System terms, including problems and signs/symptoms, were used as the foundational lexicon for this study. Development of an extended lexicon with related words for each problem concept expanded the semantics-powered data analytics approach to reflect consumer word choices. Results: All Omaha System problem concepts were identified in the journal entries, with consistent representation across domains. The approach was most successful when common words were used to represent clinical terms. Preliminary validation of journal examples showed appropriate representation of the problem concepts. Conclusions: This is the first study to evaluate the feasibility of using an interface terminology and ontology (the Omaha System) as a text mining information model. Further research is needed to systematically validate these findings, refine the process as needed to advance the study of CaringBridge content, and extend the use of this method to other consumer-generated journal entries and terminologies.Please cite the article Monsen KA, Maganti S, Giaquinto RA, Mathiason MA, Bjarnadottir RI, Kreitzer MJ.
