Implementing federal food service guidelines in federal and private worksite cafeterias in the United States leads to improved health outcomes and is cost saving
AbstractPoor diet increases cardiometabolic disease risk, yet the impact of food service guidelines on employee health and its cost effectiveness is poorly understood. Federal food service guidelines (FFSG) aim to provide United States (U.S.) government employees with healthier food options. Using microsimulation modeling, we estimated changes in the incidence of cardiometabolic disease, related mortality, and the cost effectiveness of implementing FFSG in nationally representative model populations of government and private company employees across 5 years and lifetime. We based estimates on changes in workplace intake of...

Characteristics of family nurse practitioners and their preparation for practice in rural vs urban employment settings
Approximately 50 million people, 20% of the population of the United States, live in areas designated as rural (U.S.  Census Bureau, 2018). Rural Americans are more likely to die from heart disease, cancer, chronic lower respiratory disease, and stroke compared to their urban counterparts (Rural Health Information (RHI), 2019b). Deaths from unintentional injury are approximately 50% higher in rural areas (Cente rs for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), 2017). Increasing rates of substance abuse disorders, depression, and suicidality in rural settings continue to outpace rates in urban settings (Gale, Janis, Coburn,& Rochford, 2019).
