学校具有独特的地位,通过健康和保健政策影响学生的健康和学术成果。本研究的目的是描述影响学校健康和保健政策实施的因素,特别是那些专注于体育活动和营养。深入,利益相关者进行了采访,在八个芝加哥公立学校(K-八年级)的关键线人。数据采用总结性内容分析法进行分析。确定了两个主题:促进因素和政策执行的挑战。促进者包括地区的支持和动机(内部和外部)。挑战包括学校护士有限,打破传统和预算。外部社区和健康团队的组成属于这两个主题。提出了具体战略,以利用政策执行促进者和克服挑战。虽然学校护士在学生的健康和福祉中发挥着不可或缺的作用,但需要进一步研究,以了解学校护士通过学校卫生政策对学生健康和学业成绩的影响。
Schools are uniquely positioned to impact student health and academic outcomes through health and wellness policies. The purpose of this study was to describe factors influencing implementation of school health and wellness policies, specifically those focused on physical activity and nutrition. In-depth, stakeholder interviews were conducted with key informants at eight Chicago Public Schools (K-eighth grade). Data were analyzed using summative content analysis. Two themes were identified, facilitators and challenges to policy implementation. Facilitators included district support and motivation (internal and external). Challenges included limited school nurse availability, breaking tradition and budget. The external community and wellness team composition fell within both themes. Specific strategies are suggested to build upon policy implementation facilitators and overcome challenges. While school nurses play an integral role in student health and wellness, further research is needed to understand school nurse impact on student health and academic outcomes through school health policy.
