HEALTHCARE SHIELD IS FOR YOU Take the Survey Today!

JA Smith Consulting And Nursing Services has  been working on a product that will help us all to get the right answers to Health Care. Through my  14+ working experience and finding myself in a position that I lost my sister in our health care system, I realized that the issue is not accessibility to care, the issue is knowledge to navigate to the right resources when a health issue or  wellness management concerns arise. We are ALL guilty of looking up concerns via  Dr. internet. But how good does that make you feel? or how comfortable do you feel  that you are being given the right response to your concern?


The question is why do we need such a service , and I say WE because I know that as a Healthcare professional  with 14+ experience  I know something is missing through our health care system. For those who are not entitled to Excecutive Health care plans. This plan is for you. Our goal is to make Health and wellness knowledge  a service accessible to everybody. Customized care minus the executive prices is our Goal. We want to provide a service that is  truly accessible for  all ages with the preventative guarantee that starts with you being a part of your health management.

Are you Still thinking about Healthcare Shield ?


A physician can diagnose a patient as being diabetic (disease.) But if that diabetic patient does not monitor his glucose levels or make necessary changes in his diet, the nurse can diagnose him with risk for unstable glucose levels (illness.) Thus, nursing is concerned with illness, and it's prevention, management and teaching all aspects that will help change overall outcomes while medicine (or a physician) is concerned with disease.  Big difference. The act of nursing is a true comprehensive position that truly can teach all the aspects of client care. We encourage and include everything health to help change out comes of illness. Nursing was implemented before wellness and fitness courses and other alternative ways of helping the eagerly naive.

But we embrace all acts that work to complete the health process of an individual.   We call it client focused care not generic principles of wellness because no one human is GENERIC.



Would  You like   access to a healthcare advocate? A team that is able  to answer, and help you navigate through any medical or wellness Health issues that you  and your family may have?

  Would you like to change how you feel about your healthcare options?  We embrace alternative care but we Believe that you should get the total benefits of our Health care system.  Let's truly utilize all the systems in place to help you succeed in your overall health  goal. Our services will work with your wellness professionals and medical professionals   to help you reach and maximize the  knowledge needed for you to be at your best.

Multiple Sclerosis A story to Tell The 2nd Annual Dinner May 2 2015

 THE MS WALK WILL; BE HELD MAY 3 2015 join Us  IN BRAMPTON #TIONNA'S TROOPERS

Hey it's your Girl JA Nursing here, When asked to be a part of this event it was a no brainier.  Last year  May 4 2014  to be exact , I was invited to be a speaker  for   Life's Poetry Author Josephine Casey. 

I  received a phone call outlining that her young sister age 17  Tionna had been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis  (MS).  When Josephine expressed  the need to host a Fundraiser for her Sister Tionna,  I knew it had to be done.  

The Passion behind  Life's Poetry   and it's overall symbolic meaning. My hats go off to Josephine Casey for her dedication to share awareness about (MS) Multiple Sclerosis and share  Life's Poetry 

learn more about this event and about Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an 

unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system which is composed of the brain and spinal cord. The disease attacks the
myelin which is a protective covering wrapped around the nerves of the central nervous system. This disease can cause various symptoms or little symptoms but bear in mind that most serve would include balance and mobility issues that can cause a person to be wheelchair bound.

For years, I have assumed  that  those from a  African decent  are less likely to develop Multiple sclerosis (MS),   but a new study suggests the opposite may be true.

"This is a disease that affects all racial and ethnic groups," the researcher told Reuters Health.

Tionna

"If somebody comes in with symptoms that are suspicious for MS particularly blacks, we now know that theses symptoms should be taken seriously and proper work up should be done. 

This factor also goes to say that as individuals we also have to be aware  and not assume that it can't possibly be MS because your the wrong race or ethnicity.

Looking back, being in High school was a time of challenges stemming from acceptance, what's your next step and for myself it was teen pregnancy. 

Wow being pregnant in high school  at 17 felt like the  biggest challenge that I would face.  The strength of a warrior  my friend  who at 17  had a bigger challenge, a illness  with a incurable title.

THE STORY OF RUTH THE WARRIOR

West Humber Collegiate a school in Toronto's West End has brought forth some real fighters who today 20 years latter have made a way to show exceptional strength. High School full of struggles but none like what my schoolmate had to face. Back then in the 90's illness and disease were words unknown to us teenagers except for a dear friend named Ruth, who had to face the journey of being diagnosed in High School with MS at the age of 17. Guess the stats are correct ;Multiple sclerosis is a complex disease which is most often diagnosed in young adults, aged 15 to 40. MS is unpredictable SMH  or shake my head.  Back then all the challenges like teen pregnancy, drugs, partying, skipping school seemed quite minor compared to being duagnosed with MS.  I would clapp my hands right now, for the Strength that Ruth has Shown. Being able to join theses too to create  something positive brings me joy.  The union of a strong survivor of Ms and a new warrior of Ms would be the ideal situation of bonding strengths. The purpose of May 2 2015.

L-R Ruth-JA Nursing-Emma

Let's just take a quick look at MS

Did you know ...

✔️Canadians have one of the highest rates of multiple sclerosis in the world.

✔️MS is the most common neurological disease affecting young adults in Canada.

✔️Every day, three more people in Canada are diagnosed with MS.

✔️Women are more than three times as likely to develop MS as men.

✔️MS can cause loss of balance, impaired speech, extreme fatigue, double vision and paralysis.

✔️We don't know what causes MS but researchers are closer to finding the answer.

But given all the above facts about Multiple Sclerosis let's all continue to help create awareness about MS. 

Thankfully  now that we have the  MS Society of Canada  families and friends affected with MS will have a outlet that they can turn too. The ultimate goal is to find a cure.

The MS Society of Canada’s mission “enabling people affected by MS to enhance their quality of life”.

Coming soon.....

May 7-9, 2015 will mark the 39th annual MS Carnation Campaign. Communities across Ontario - and throughout Canada - will use the "power of the flower" to help end MS. The campaign's timing just before Mother's Day is particularly appropriate since multiple sclerosis is diagnosed in women three times as often as men. Many people living with MS are
mothers, and this unpredictable, often disabling disease affects entire families.

Who SHOULD talk about the BIRDS And The BEE's WITH YOUR CHILD?

Hi Its Your Girl JA Nursing Big week !!!!


I had to weight in on this topic.  I know many lesbian couples and gay couples  and at this point in my life especially as a health care provider It doesn't matter to me. Be Happy. That's what matters.

 On February 23rd Kathleen Wynne's Liberal government finally posted the supposedly "new" sex-ed curriculum online, after keeping it secret for months.  The sudden change in plans by the Wynne government, which had previously said the curriculum would not be made available online for several more weeks, saw it unveiled the day before a planned protest at Queen's Park. A primary motivation of Kathleen Wynne's with this timing was surely to get ahead of the story that a parental protest was likely to generate.
The question  will always be  how much do we need our children need to know?  or  and who do you think is responsible to start the conversation regarding any topic or subject?  This blog is a urban platform to address topics of the city.



This is your  Social Health Buzz with Michelle Smith

Until this curriculum Roles out, I will continue to find ways to help the community cope with this topic and help teach you ways to better communicate about the topic. Remember its every ones responsibly to Parent their own children, An example of this is  when they legalize marijuana the topic won't be why they did it but the issue will  be too  continue the conversation  with our  children about the pros and cons of Drug Use. Hope you get the picture Here.


The last update to Ontario's sex education curriculum was in 1998.
That's almost 20 years ago. Middle-school children didn't have smart
phones and social media back then. Snap chat, sexting and Tinder were
not part of the landscape. And puberty is starting earlier than ever now
-- at age 7 and 8 for some girls.



It's definitely time to update the curriculum. But what should be
included? What's appropriate? The curriculum development included input
from consultants, educators, parents and students. Some of the highlights are: As per a article by the The Star  it states that Ontario will be up to date like the rest of the Provinces.


1. Grade 3 students will learn about same sex couples and homosexuality;


2. Grade 6 classes will learn about puberty, masturbation and gender identity;


3. Grade 7 students will be taught sexually transmitted diseases (including oral and anal sex).



Our schools are expected to reflect our culture. Gay marriages are
legal. If a student has their two moms or two dads dropping them off at
school and attending the class concert, why not make sure the language
in the textbooks and curriculum reflect the experience of children in an
accurate way?

Bullying rates are higher for the LGBTQ students, and recommendations
from all anti-bullying programs is to have LGBTQ committees and clubs to
help educate others who have prejudice. We know prejudice is taught,
so, why not conquer ignorance proactively by discussing gender identity
in the early grades? If a school will take disciplinary actions against a
student for making personal attacks about a fellow student's sexual
identity, have the curriculum reflect understanding and acceptance of
difference, too.

A IS FOR AUTISM AWARENESS

One of the common  complaints that I hear from parents is their frustration with navigating  the healthcare system. As your advocate, it is very important to promote knowledge and awareness daily.  Early detection is the key  when handling   any health issue.  It is very important to help you identify ways in which you can navigate the healthcare and social system more effectively.  April is known as Autism awareness  month,  April 2, 2016, was celebrated as  World Autism Awareness Day. Thousands of landmarks, including the CN tower went Blue to raise global awareness about autism spectrum disorder.  With the May 2013 publication of the DSM-5 diagnostic manual, all autism disorders were merged into one umbrella diagnosis of ASD. Previously, they were recognised as distinct subtypes, including autistic disorder, childhood disintegrative disorder, pervasive developmental disorder-not otherwise specified (PDD-NOS), and Asperger syndrome.


 According to  Autism Canada  Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurobiological condition that can affect the normal function of the gastrointestinal, immune, hepatic, endocrine and nervous systems. It impacts normal brain development leaving most individuals with communication problems, difficulty with typical social interactions and a tendency to repeat specific patterns of behaviour.  Some persons with ASD excel in visual skills, music, math, and art. Studies also show that autism is four to five times more common among boys than girls. An estimated 1 out of 42 boys and 1 in 189 girls are diagnosed with autism.  There is no standard “type” or “typical” person with an Autism Spectrum Disorder but being able to recognize early signs is the key to early diagnosis.  Presently, we do not have a medical test that can diagnose autism. For this reason, parents should pay attention to their child’s social and language skills as well as their child’s play skills and body movements. -

Autism awareness has drawn attention in Jamaica as well, Autism and other disorders can be misunderstood if parents are not aware of what needs to be done to help their children strive. Taken from an article in the Jamaican Observer as a Mother of autistic child vents her frustration

 written BY DONNA HUSSEY-WHYTE Sunday Observer reporter husseyd @jamaicaobserver.com

 "Sometimes mi frustrated. Sometimes mi feel fi lef him and just make them kill him in a Bay (Montego Bay) because mi tired of it! To deal with this no easy you know, lady, and fi know seh you have to go deal with it for the rest of your life?!"

Davidson explained that her son was diagnosed with autism — a lifelong brain disorder that affects the way a person communicates and relates to people around them — after many tests which began soon after she discovered that at age two, he was still not speaking.

Her son Christopher Clarke was seven when he was diagnosed as autistic at the psychiatric ward at Cornwall Regional Hospital.

"But the doctor didn't tell me what is autism. Is somebody where mi used to live did have a 'doctor dictionary' and she look up the word autism and tell me say it mean the delay of everything," Davidson said. "But mi still never know nothing 'bout autism. But mi stay with him and try with him. It was at the age of 10 that I took him out of diapers after I read a book on autism. To show you that I am working with him," she said.

As a Nurse from a Jamaican background, this story can be the story for many regardless of your cultural background. The alliance between families and providers is the key to supporting your child’s progress, but  this can be difficult for parents who have limited English proficiency or lack the knowledge and skills to access systems of care successfully.  I have always stated that It is very important for care  providers to use cultural  competence  in identifying early signs of ASD and making appropriate referrals for diagnosis and treatment. According to The Mother Company,  the average age at which a child is diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder in the United States is around four years old, most parents who ultimately get a diagnosis report having  concerns about their child’s development or behavior by the time the child is just 18 months old.  

Kudos to   Chief Saunders  of the Toronto Police  who had his son  with him at his  May 28, 2015  swearing in ceremony.

Chief Saunders says he has learned a lot from his son, mostly about listening. When you’re dealing with autism, he discovered, you have to listen to what a person means, not what he says.

“When you come home from school and say, ‘This is the worst day in my life ever. I wish I were dead,’ that translates into ‘I had a bad day’ or ‘I had a bad encounter with so and so.’ 

The chief says he learned to do things like say that he himself had suffered through a bad day or an angry encounter and that he felt bad about it. That could help the talk along.

It is no secret that health literacy increases when families understand the care needed for themselves or their children. Every child develops differently, however  understanding healthy milestones in child development is  used to help Parents and Doctors see if children are developing accordingly. Remember not every delay calls for a trip to the Doctors. But be aware. One thing that I insist on, is being  persistent  when you require medical attention of any kind. Check to see if your child is achieving these typical milestones at each age level:

I am able to help you navigate the system as well as help you understand the signs that you should be reporting to your physician. Remember you are the most important part of your health care team.

G-98.7 RADIO INTERVIEW WITH CURT BARRY ELIJAH MARSH DAD

Hi its your girl JA Nursing  with your  Social Buzz for the week with the most anticipated Radio interview by our friends over at G98.7fm The Grapevine hosted by   Mr Fitzroy Gordon  sat  down With Mr Curt Barry.  The contents of this interview may evoke many emotions, however it is in public interest to have all sides of the story addressed.  As Social Advocate I work with many people who have ben given a unfare exchange by the justice system, and I feel that it is part of the title to advocate for all especially when I know how many children have been effected by this injustice with the system.

 

Lets just go back 

   Toronto Police         ✔ @TorontoPolice Follow

We regret to announce that 3yr old #Elijah has died. Our thoughts are with his family and all affected by this tragedy #PrayForElijah ^sm

2:04 PM - 19 Feb 2015 Toronto, Ontario, Canada

In my  first blog about the tragic passing of Elijah, I had some concerns about the circumstances behind the incident. It is not my place to judge however one thing I do know for certain is that as a Social Advocate/ Health care professional  I have worked with many Men like Mr Curt Barry that have been given a unfair chance in our justice system.  This factor becomes more scary when children are displaced from unfit homes and bit into Foster care rather than mending a family with A Father that is capable to care for a child in all ways needed.   

As well, I  have worked with many Mothers Like myself who cant seem to get the Justice system to work at all. Case in question. Once the father decides not to work then support can not  be enforced. But for today's topic we will speak About how Men can regain some rights.

I think its wrong to deprive a child of either one of their Parents especially when a Parent wants to see their children.

We all know that the ratio is more common  to have  Women  chasing the Father. However when you have a case where the Father is chasing the child it has proven to

 most often end up in a tragic scenario  as seen  with Little Elijah Marsh.

Few points to understand here, I always tell people that this Justice System is not even designed for women. I personally have a case outstanding with FRO otherwise known as The  Family Responsibility Office. 

 

I always say that it is quite offensive for Mother's like myself to call FRO repeatedly,  inorder to have some sort of action take place, While you have Fathers like Mr Barry who are paying the support with out gaining proper access.

.

Many may wonder why Should I go into this, Well  as   your Social Advocate issues like this pass through my day regularly. Social literacy effects Health literacy. The end results of both situations can lead to  tragic outcomes.

 

What can be done to equal the field?   leave   a  comment

 How do we Change the Justice System to treat individuals  in a manner that reflect their actions ?

  The long and short of this is that If both children had been given the exact access from the Family Justice system  this incident could have been avoided.

A life is a big price to pay when equality of rights is involved I hope this truly sets A precedent for future case brought before the courts.

 

RIP Elijah Marsh this Post is not to take away from the Pain that all Members of the family may feel. This post is to examine relationships, the system and the unfortunate casualties, The children

To the family of Elijah Marsh, we are mourning with you with everything we have. Our hearts are heavy. We ache for you.

Child Support Table Look-up

 http://www.justice.gc.ca/eng/fl-df/child-enfant/look-rech.asp

   I just used this look up to see how much Child support I should be getting and according to this look up they stated I get $0. Now isn't that the luck of the draw when Fathers decide not to work or  choose to work under the table no enforcement is applied.  That will be another blog when we tackle Social Advocacy a Mother's story.

Elijah Marsh R.I.P MY PRAYERS We Need Solutions

Elijah Marsh

renee Banton FROM  you tube

3 weeks ago

Thanks for sharing your story which actually seems to fill a lot of the gaps. The court system is really messed up when it pertains to this cases and in any event the child is not with one parent, he or she should be with the other. This country lives for double standard and there need to be a stop. You people out there talking about he should move on, how can you expect him to? If it was your child I am pretty sure you all would have pulled no stops to ensure justice will be serve. The man has all RIGHTS to say whether it makes his child's mom and family looks bad. I have three boys at home and if one of them gets up in the night to pee or for anything, you better believe that I hear them. So I believe him when he says that the grand mom was not watching him. Some mothers can really be spiteful but they need to realize that it's the child they are spiting. R.I.P. Elijah. One 💚💙💛💜

 Very emotional and difficult day. Wished my condolences and prayers for the Marsh family during this heart wrenching time.

My blessings be with them and any parent who has gone through the pain of saying goodbye to their child.

"Are you Protected from the Unexpected?"


 Hello  It's your Girl JA Nursing how is everyone  doing  today? with just over 72 hours  of seeing  such tragedy  in our city, lets really take a moment to  have some empathy, for Elijah's family.  At this time no one  knows any more to the story  then the facts that a  boy has lost his life. I'll have to weight  in on this situation.

 With many questions unanswered,  the hows, and whys  have grown in our city especially with another  child  found the next day in similar conditions.

Toronto police say a toddler was found wandering naked outside on Friday — just a day after three-year-old Elijah Marsh died after walking out of an apartment complex in the middle of the night.

A neighbor found the child, also three years old, around 1:30 p.m. Friday in the city’s west end, near Kipling Avenue and Lakeshore Boulevard, police said.

The toddler was taken to St. Joseph’s hospital as a precaution, but police spokesman Victor Kwong said the boy was believed to be unharmed.

Initially, police said they could not locate the parents. But Staff Sgt. Mary Price said around 2:30 p.m. that the mother had been identified and police were waiting to speak with her.

“We’re trying to determine how the child got outside,” she said.

Temperatures in Toronto were hovering around -15C on Friday  -22C with windchill, according to Environment Canada.

This  Mother was 23,  and she was arrested. when I was 23 I had 2 children, going to school with very little support. Being a young parent is a challenge.

Is that a cop-out answer or excuse? No it isn't,  but it will  open the doors to what  may be a  greater issue when it comes to the family unit.   (I'll leave that question open for now).

 Last year I facilitated a Grief counseling health and wellness day for a community that lost 2 youths to violence. This day was a true testimony to  the pain felt by not only the parents involved but the pain felt by an entire community when a youth is lost.  Just by reading all the twitter feeds we can see and feel the same sense of loss.

 I have couple question........


If this was another residential  area would this have happened? A condo,  or a well run apartment building? It's not to say that it is brain surgery to open a door by a toddler but, to open  2 lobby doors becomes questionable.

I can't help but to wonder   how  COULD a 2 feet tall child  open  those  lobby doors so easily?  Do you think that could happen in YOUR BUILDING ?  I know many TCH  buildings, and sometimes the doors are not even locked. Just the thought that a hard  breeze could  easily  blow open the doors to many Toronto Housing Complexes; is quite shocking and disturbing, but true.


My concern is that  one's environment  or living condition can  predispose them  to tragedy. If the building's door where  properly locked, could he have pushed open the door? Or if this was a well run building with a super or concierge, or security on duty like most housing complexes are supposed to have not just idle cameras, but someone actually watching them. Could this still have happened?

  I'm just saying,  I'm not trying to throw blame all over the place, but I am looking at all ways in-which this situation could have been prevented. 
I don't live in housing, but I strongly feel that the residents of Toronto Housing complexes all across the city become victims in some why or another.  Last week for example there was a building downtown that was out of power and heat for many days  when the city was under a extreme cold alert. (link below)

So in saying that we all have to take an account of our living conditions.  We are all responsible for the safety of our children.

This is my take on the situation,  I am  your Health and Social Advocate Michelle Smith this has been your Community Social Buzz
