Earth observation for public health: Biodiversity change and emerging disease surveillance.

is an emerging concept in the health sciences that approaches human, animal and environmental health from a single framework. This policy approach is grounded in the knowledge that approximately 70 percent of emerging diseases in humans originate from other species, and that this species crossover is precipitated by stresses to environmental systems such as habitat change and biodiversity loss. Remote sensing tools apply well to this approach due to the multitude of variables that can be measured across borders in real-time.

The experiences of inpatient nursing staff caring for young people with early psychosis.

Background: Early intervention services aim to improve outcomes for people with psychosis and, where possible, to prevent psychiatric hospital admission. When hospitalisation does occur, inpatient staff are required to support patients and families who may be less familiar with services, uncertain about possible outcomes, and may be experiencing a psychiatric hospital for the first time.

Aims: Our study aimed to understand the process of hospitalisation in early psychosis, from the perspective of inpatient nursing staff.
