Guest guest Posted February 7, 2009 Report Share Posted February 7, 2009 de... from another reply yesyerday... Kombucha microflora do not particularly like the cold and it could take a good long while for the yeasts and bacteria in the culture you have stored to regain enough balance to brew properly. It is always best to store a Kombucha culture in a glass container with finished KT at room temperature and covered with an air permeable, tightly woven cloth held on securely with something like a rubber band. Your options are to just let it go and see if your brew matures, or ask for a new SCOBY.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2009 Report Share Posted February 8, 2009 Hi, Alhough I have not tried refrigerating a scoby and then resurrecting it for brewing, I don't see why it would be a problem. I base this on the fact that I have used GT's Original KT for starting my KT cultures. I have taken his refrigerated, original unflavored KT as a starter, and now have been brewing excellent KT with beautiful, beefy scobys for several months. I don't see why if I now refrigerated one of these scobys it wouldn't spring back into action when asked. I'm basing this of course on the fact that I started with refrigerated KT with just a wisp of a scoby in the first place and had no problems.

Guest guest Posted March 28, 2009 Report Share Posted March 28, 2009 I have previously posted my role(specialist practitioner domestic violence) and the preventative approach I wish to take re DV and sharing information between health and police. Then coordinate proactive indicated prevention. Outcome measures may be school readiness re speech and language scores/ family well being measures etc. Clearly this is open to other variables I would like to roll out routine and selective enquiry between A & E staff and practice nurses. In brief , this would entail A & E suspecting abuse but being unable to respond or receiving a negative to enquiry (Using wales care pathway approach) A routine call for pill check, smear, or well woman, could use selective enquiry. Then refer if positive to womens aid. I am going to request funding for a masters degree , plan A - If this is funded can anyone suggest a course that will support the research of this ? Plan B If I get Knocked back , can anyone suggest a research route to apply for and how, DCSF , DH, etc, Thanks , Sharman Any ideas responses would be really very welcome From: Woody.Caan@...Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2009 17:10:42 +0000Subject: RE: FW: Special Mailing National Perinatal and Infant Mental Health network Good work, Sharman! A little bit of Health can go a long way.... The Leeds 'signpost' team did not share their FAF with the workshop yesterday. However, I just found a webpage http://www.renewleeds.co.uk/page.php?id=40 including a contact number and email address, if you want to follow them up. All the best to Senators for Mother's Day, Woody. From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of sharman burchellSent: 20 March 2009 09:36 Subject: RE: FW: Special Mailing National Perinatal and Infant Mental Health network Hi Woody , I visited our FIP leader, on wednesday and asked about joining up with health. I recently attended a FIP and ASBO information day locally . I was invited in my capacity as being seconded to a council safer community team, with the DV team. I was the only "health" worker there. They had not invited any universal services. When I asked whether they liaised with health , it was clear that this wasn't routine . So I asked to see her . All FIPS are developed differently , some based in housing , some councils etc. She told me that the national model did have health workers attached , but our local one never. When I discussed with her that the children enagaging in anti social will have a named school nurse , but also may have younger sibling who have a named HV . She aknowledged that they were having a multi -agency meeting re a child this week , and HV had not been included, I think schoolse may have . She was genuinley enthusiastic and very interested regarding neurological development and links with future anti-social behaviour and the role of universal services. We chatted further regarding 2 way referral , and she is going to see my manager. As I came away I reflected that refrrals are clearly made to "relevant" agencies and wondered why it seems so difficult to be aknowledged as KEY to these childrens lives and future. Do other areas have close links with FIPs ? This ties in well with my aim to share all dv incidents police attend with health and not wait till crisis and refer to Social services as child protection. Again the govt is banging on about joining up , sharing info , and the benefits of universal services ,etc , and yet..................... It seems that in the translation of policy to practice the relevance of universal services seems vague and to be honest peripheral. I think central govt (DH,DCSF,Home Office) have grasped it , I think locally it will take time to filter down. Have other areas got good examples of joined up working with health and police, FIP's etc. Did you get a look at the family assessment framework , Leeds were using ? Sharman From: Woody.Caananglia (DOT) ac.ukDate: Thu, 19 Mar 2009 21:31:05 +0000Subject: RE: FW: Special Mailing National Perinatal and Infant Mental Health network Dear , The event Statistics Are Either Dull of Wrong: Discuss began with excellent talks by Prof. Spiegelhalter and Dr. Ben Goldacre, using various health examples from the popular Press. I have hesitated to expand on the subsequent discussions in which I took part, because the language (derived from Sun headlines etc) was far from 'PC' and I do not want to offend any Senators e.g. with my specific example from 1990s Cambridgeshire when it was on special measures, about identifying potential 'baby killers'... the polite translation of the Professor of the Public Understanding of Risk's reply could be to contrast lay people (e.g. most parents) who do not want 'certainty' about Risk, with increasingly defensive (and blamed) professionals who want to tick enough Risk 'boxes' that they are certain that family X will kill infant Y, even if high specificity means that most infants who will die would not be detected because their families are too ordinary. The key message was the defensive use of screening instruments by professionals to produce simple and confident (but atypical) results. With much less discomfort, I can talk about a great roadshow with 250 participants today in Leeds for the Youth Task Force (except zero school nurses or CAMHS staff attended!). A key insight from the DCSF sponsors was there use of indicators of multiple disadvantage to 'target' families, based explicitly on Figure 4 onwards in the attached Social Exclusion document from 2004. Every speaker talked about Parenting, and Anne Weinstock the YTF director (formerly of national Connexions) emphasised that 'effective parenting' was the most important factor in preventing subsequent 'youth crime'. The 'most extreme families' or 2% of the population have 5+ Risk Factors for social exclusion: this is the essence of targeting practice e.g. for Family Intervention Projects. Regarding HV caseloads especially Family Nurse Partnerships, the NCH model of 'FIPs' adopted by the DCSF limit each keyworker to 3 - 6 'extreme' families - and keyworkers are still burning out! One DCSF civil servant replied to a query about teenage parents within these multiple risk households, that the most effective FIPs are in places where the teenage mum and dad also have a Family Nurse partnership pilot to start support antenatally!! We must get stories of this 'effective' parenting partnership from Health Visitors and Social Workers who are now involved with the same 'socially excluded families'.... Nobody had a good word for the CAF, but the social workers in Leeds had a Family Assessment Framework that they were promoting. School Nurses, are you involved in these developments? Woody.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Dear SharmanYou have given this a lot of thought, and well done for wanting to take this forward. We have several people researching DV at King's, so most of our MSc programmes would support research in this area; the MRes is particularly for anyone who is interested in research. You can download our prospectus from the end of the page at:  http://www.kcl.ac.uk/schools/nursing/reports/index.html Information about our DV research is mainly in the maternal health research section, on http://www.kcl.ac.uk/schools/nursing/research/aims/groups/maternal.htmlIt would be great if your organisation would fund you to complete a research masters, as getting funding for 'stand alone' research tends to be extremely difficult.  good luck with taking this forward.kind regardsOn 28 Mar 2009, at 20:40, sharman burchell wrote:I have previously posted my role(specialist practitioner domestic violence)  and the preventative approach I wish to take re DV and sharing information between health and police.

They had not invited any universal services. When I asked whether they liaised with health , it was clear that this wasn't routine . So I asked to see her .  All FIPS are developed differently , some based in housing , some councils etc. She told me that the national model did have health workers attached , but our local one never. When I discussed with her that the children enagaging in anti social will have a named school nurse , but also may have younger sibling who have a named HV . She aknowledged that they were having a multi -agency meeting re a child this week , and HV had not been included, I think schoolse may have . She was genuinley enthusiastic and very interested regarding neurological development and links with future anti-social behaviour and the role of universal services. We chatted further regarding 2 way referral , and she is going to see my manager.  As I came away I reflected that refrrals are clearly made to "relevant" agencies and wondered why it seems so difficult to be aknowledged as KEY to these childrens lives and future. Do other areas have close links with FIPs ?

It seems that in the translation of policy to practice the relevance of universal services seems vague and to be honest peripheral.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2009 Report Share Posted March 30, 2009 Thanks , I'll look at those. I have thought a lot about measuring outcomes because as pointed out proving benefit could have implications for others, Thanks again , sharman From: sarahcowley183@...Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2009 12:27:12 +0100Subject: Re: help needed Dear Sharman You have given this a lot of thought, and well done for wanting to take this forward. We have several people researching DV at King's, so most of our MSc programmes would support research in this area; the MRes is particularly for anyone who is interested in research. You can download our prospectus from the end of the page at: http://www.kcl.ac.uk/schools/nursing/reports/index.html Information about our DV research is mainly in the maternal health research section, on http://www.kcl.ac.uk/schools/nursing/research/aims/groups/maternal.html It would be great if your organisation would fund you to complete a research masters, as getting funding for 'stand alone' research tends to be extremely difficult. good luck with taking this forward. kind regards On 28 Mar 2009, at 20:40, sharman burchell wrote: I have previously posted my role(specialist practitioner domestic violence) and the preventative approach I wish to take re DV and sharing information between health and police.

Guest guest Posted August 15, 2009 Report Share Posted August 15, 2009 Hon,If I had symptoms like that, I wouldn't be waiting until Monday! Sounds like you have an impacted bowel (in my not-so-professional opinion). But whatever it is, you need to go in like yesterday! Tar stools means there is considerable blood in there (or your taking iron)...bright red blood means you're bleeding and unless you have hemmerhoids, its likely intestinal bleeding.Sent on the TELUS Mobility network with BlackBerryFrom: LMay Date: Sat, 15 Aug 2009 07:52:55 -0500< >Subject: Help Needed Hi If anybody is reading I am scared I have been hurting in my left side for months it felt like a big knot by my bellybutton and now I am passing tar stools and bright red blood out of both I know I should go to the doc's but my husband goes into the hospital monday.
