Issues surrounding professional portfolio development for nurses.

This article discusses issues that underpin professional portfolio development for registered nurses. The findings were informed by a review of the pertinent literature. The literature was obtained by undertaking searches of a number of electronic databases and hand searches of key journals. It was found that portfolio development has been a requirement for re-registration for a number of years. However, there appears to remain confusion and uncertainty among professionals regarding the meaning and implications of portfolio development for nurses. For example, in the review conducted, the terminology used was often found to be confusing and expectations of how a portfolio should look are unclear. Conclusions can be drawn that practitioners may be in a quandary of how to develop and present evidence in what is now a mandatory requirement for re-registration, the maintenance of a professional portfolio.

Coming of age in hard times.

Young people are facing very serious problems of unemployment and underemployment in the current job market. Disadvantaged youth are enduring the most difficult struggle. One plausible reason is that youth are undereducated and insufficiently skilled to meet job requirements. This article explores forty in-depth interviews with young people from three high-unemployment neighborhoods to closely examine experiences in high school and in the post-high school work entry phase. The purpose was to determine whether the youths were receiving the skill set components advanced by Comprehensive Collaborative Models. Policy implications are drawn from the lack of fit between model prescriptions and actual experiences.

Psychiatric disabilities and the Americans with Disabilities Act: implications for policy and practice.

People with psychiatric disabilities are often victims of job discrimination. The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 makes it very clear that job discrimination based on a psychiatric impairment is illegal. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) reports that psychiatric disability is one of the leading causes why persons file discrimination complaints. Given this situation, an analysis is offered of what constitutes a psychiatric disability under the ADA. An overview, an analysis, and examples of the kinds of accommodations employers can be expected to provide people with psychiatric disabilities are offered. The policy and practice implications of the employment provisions (Title I) in the area of psychiatric disabilities are presented.

Windows to work: exploring employment-seeking behaviors of persons with HIV/AIDS through Photovoice.

The advent of health-enhancing protease inhibitors and highly active antiretroviral therapy has enhanced the longevity for persons living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA), increasing the number of PLWHA returning to employment. Based on community-based participatory research, the Photovoice method was used to identify the influences upon the employment-seeking behavior of 11 PLWHA who were unemployed and had full-time employment histories after their initial HIV/AIDS diagnosis. Through group discussion and photograph presentations, participants identified 19 factors which they grouped into five categories: (a) advantages of employment, (b) disadvantages of employment, (c) referents influencing employment decisions, (d) facilitators for employment, and (e) impediments to employment. Participants utilized these findings to develop action plans to address the employment-seeking behavior of PLWHA. The findings also suggest the utility of Photovoice to enhance employment outcomes for PLWHA.

Update on the diagnostic radiologist shortage.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study is to present the latest information available on the shortage of diagnostic radiologists. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Four sources of information are available, and we present their data: first, the number of jobs for diagnostic radiologists advertised in Radiology and the American Journal of Roentgenology; second, vacancies in academic radiology departments as of July 1, 2003, ascertained by a survey of these departments; third, the ratio of job listings to job seekers at a major professional placement service, the Professional Bureau of the American College of Radiology (ACR); and fourth, diagnostic radiologists' self-reported workload burden, from the ACR's 2003 Survey of Diagnostic Radiologists. RESULTS: Jobs advertised in September-November 2003 (latest data available) were 28% fewer than in the same months of 2002. Vacancies per department averaged 3.9 in 2003, compared with 5.4 in 2001 and 5.1 in 2002. Listings per seeker were 1.4 in 2002 (latest data available) compared with 3.0 or more in 1999 and 2000. Responses to a question directly tying changes in workload to changes in income indicated that reported desires for workload reduction and workload increase were approximately equal. CONCLUSION: All four information sources have important limitations, but all indicate that the shortage has considerably eased. We plan to study the causes of this easing and continue to monitor the situation.
