Yolyanko William’s new book «Graphikasana: The Hatha Yoga Sketches» is an enlightening read on the fundamentals of yoga that provide deeper meditation and self-composure

NEW YORK, June 5, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Yolyanko William, a painter, draftsman, audiovisual artist, and filmmaker who Graduated from Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes «San Alejandro» in Habana, Cuba, has completed his new book «Graphikasana: The Hatha Yoga Sketches»: an insightful tome that delves into the essence of yoga that serves as a guiding tool in perceiving the positive benefits of such practice in a holistic level.

<div…

Author William provides in-depth teachings about yoga to uplift the practitioner’s perception of the philosophy and practice of its foundation: «The generous amount of asanas that Yolyanko William has rendered in these series of drawings demonstrates that, symbolically speaking, the physical body can be lost in an immense sea of visual energy. This imagery of voluptuous lines and simplified figural sketches goes beyond the mere intention to give a didactic account of the practice of yoga. It only takes a few glimpses of these images to perceive the innumerable amount of physical and psychological benefits that these yoga postures offer. In the words of the ancient Yogi Pantajali, the word asana is defined as a firm posture of the body which shows relaxation at the same time. In this group of practical and mystical graphics, the serene quality that allows the body to be prepared for meditation is perceived in the confident and gestural line of the artist.»

Published by Page Publishing, Yolyanko William’s educational book also features visuals that effectively supplement the explanations for better navigation of the book and the internalizing of its intent and purpose.

Readers who wish to experience this efficacious work can purchase «Graphikasana: Hatha Yoga» at bookstores everywhere or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon, Google Play, or Barnes and Noble.

NIH to test one-dose antibiotic for the prevention of maternal and infant sepsis

BETHESDA, Maryland, June 3, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Researchers supported by the National Institutes of Health and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation will assess whether a single oral dose of the antibiotic azithromycin during labor reduces the risk of maternal and infant bacterial infection and death in seven low- and middle-income countries.

«We urgently need effective interventions to reduce the death toll of pregnancy-related infections worldwide,» said <span…

«We urgently need effective interventions to reduce the death toll of pregnancy-related infections worldwide,» said Diana W. Bianchi, M.D., NICHD Director. «This study allows us to test a low-cost intervention that has shown promise in a smaller study.»

The clinical trial is funded by NIH’s Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) and the Gates Foundation. The trial will be conducted by researchers in NICHD’s Global Network for Women’s and Children’s Health Research, or NICHD Global Network.

Maternal death from sepsis—a system-wide reaction to bacterial and other infections—is higher in many low- and middle-income countries, compared to wealthy countries. This higher death rate results from a combination of factors, including a longer time to diagnosis, lack of access to timely drug treatment and chronic malnourishment. Infection during pregnancy and in the weeks after birth account for roughly 10% of maternal deaths worldwide, according to the World Health Organization. Infection accounts for 16% of newborn deaths worldwide.

Azithromycin, an antibiotic effective against a broad range of bacteria, has been shown to protect against infection resulting from cesarean delivery. The drug is low-cost and can be kept at room temperature, which makes it suitable for parts of the world where refrigeration isn’t always available. An earlier study of more than 800 women in The Gambia found that administering azithromycin to pregnant women at the beginning of labor reduced maternal and infant infections, compared to a group that received a placebo. Azithromycin and other antibiotics are not effective against COVID-19 and other diseases caused by viruses.

The current study plans to enroll up to 34,000 women at NICHD Global Network sites in Bangladesh, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Guatemala, India, Kenya, Pakistan and Zambia. Half of the women will receive a single 2-gram dose of oral azithromycin, and the other half will receive a placebo. The women and their infants will be monitored for fever and other signs of infection during their hospital stay and again at one week and six weeks after giving birth. The study will also include records of unscheduled visits to health facilities outside of the network sites.

«The NICHD Global Network provides the expertise and infrastructure needed to carry out this essential clinical trial,» said lead investigator Waldemar Carlo, M.D., of the Neonatology Division of the University of Alabama at Birmingham. «We anticipate that this study will provide important data to help us improve the standard of maternal care in low- and middle-income countries.»

The Foundation for the National Institutes of Health, a not-for-profit organization that manages alliances with public and private institutions in support of the NIH mission, provided funding for the study with a grant from the Gates Foundation.

We are witness, and have empathy, to the nationwide anger that needs to be redirected to change our country’s institutional unequal application of justice and the law. We also believe injury to peaceful protestors should not be tolerated.

Bias, racism and violence have historically destroyed our African American, Latino, Native American and other disadvantaged minority communities causing emotional distress and vulnerability to more illness and diseases that has led to toxic stress, poor health and quality of life, and ultimately, the unacceptable health and wealth disparities in the United States.

We represent Latino physicians, dentists and oral health professionals, hospital executives, public health administrators and practitioners, nurses, psychologists, social workers, physician assistants, pharmacists, dietitians as well as medical societies and community organizations who are all committed to increasing health equity by health education, managing diseases and by motivating our patients in culturally competent communication. We are also committed to being change agents in our communities, especially in our healthcare system, with leadership development, mentoring and recruiting more Latinos to serve our communities through our organizations.

We stand together and call for the leadership of Federal, State, and local governments, and corporations and foundations as well as the health care private sector to work with us and other minority healthcare leaders to build social justice and health equity in our nation. Our nation, the United States of America, cannot wait one more day. NOW is the time.

Roy Maas Youth Alternatives (RMYA) Achieves National COA Accreditation

SAN ANTONIO, June 2, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Roy Maas Youth Alternatives (RMYA) has achieved national accreditation through the New York-based Council on Accreditation (COA). Since 1976, the San Antonio, TX based RMYA programs have served over 83,000 abused, neglected, and high-risk youth and families through residential and counseling services. Youth in RMYA programs receive expert therapeutic intervention and specialized educational instruction through a continuum of care from birth to age 24. RMYA programs include two specialized emergency shelters, a long-term residential campus, a transitional living program for youth who have aged out of foster care and homeless youth, a family counseling and resource center and RMYA Centro Seguro Drop-In Center for Sex Trafficked Youth, the first 24/7 specialized center in the nation to achieve national accreditation from COA. Centro Seguro was created in 2017 and established initially as a joint project of RMYA, Bexar County Juvenile Probation, the Kronkosky Charitable Foundation and the Texas Office of the Governor.

High School Graduation at RMYA Meadowland Charter District

RMYA achieved accreditation following eighteen months of rigorous self-examination and documentation of its agency-wide processes. Organizations pursue accreditation to demonstrate the implementation of best practice standards in the field of human services. COA evaluated all aspects of RMYA’s programs, services, management, and administration. In all, 899 individual standards were examined during the process. Based on their findings, COA’s Accreditation Commission voted that Roy Maas Youth Alternatives had successfully met the criteria for accreditation.

«The COA accreditation process provides a unique view of RMYA as seen through the eyes of highly experienced professionals,» said Jody Levison-Johnson, President and CEO of COA. «This achievement represents the fulfillment of countless hours of hard work and the dedication of many people–most notably RMYA staff and the members of its board and executive leadership team.

RMYA CEO Bill Wilkinson remarked, «COA accreditation validates who we are and what we value as an organization serving children and youth in crisis. We are proud to be counted among the fewer than 25% of child-serving residential providers in Texas that have received accreditation, which is a critical component of RMYA’s path to being certified as a Qualified Residential Treatment Provider under the federal Family First Prevention Services Act.»

COA accreditation is an objective, independent, and reliable validation of an agency’s performance. COA accreditation demonstrates accountability in the management of resources, sets standardized best practice thresholds for service and administration, and increases organizational capacity and accountability by creating a framework for ongoing quality improvement. An endorsement of COA and the value of its accreditation process is reflected in it being the only national accreditor designated by the U.S. Department of Defense to develop accreditation standards and processes for human service programs provided to military personnel and their families.

About Council on Accreditation
Founded in 1977, COA is an independent, not-for-profit accreditor of the full continuum of community-based behavioral health care and social service organizations in the United States and Canada. Over 2,000 organizations — voluntary, public, and proprietary; local and statewide; large and small — have either successfully achieved COA accreditation or are currently engaged in the process. Presently, COA has 47 service standards that are applicable to over 125 different types of programs. To learn more about COA, please visit www.coanet.org.

Atrium Health Increases Ongoing Commitment to Charlotte’s Hispanic Community Amid COVID-19

CHARLOTTE, N.C., June 2, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Throughout the greater Charlotte region, there has been an increase in positive coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) cases directly affecting the Hispanic population. The latest data indicates the pandemic is largely affecting young Hispanic people ages 20 to 40, including several clusters at construction sites in Charlotte. As part of its mission to improve health, elevate hope and advance healing – for all, Atrium Health is focusing its commitment by launching a new initiative, «Para Tu Salud» – simply translated to «For Your Health» – to further educate and inform Hispanic communities on how to stay safe and healthy.

«We are incredibly proud to be a national leader in how we’re improving access to coronavirus testing and have eliminated the testing disparity among African American and Hispanic patient populations in the communities we serve, but our commitment doesn’t stop there,» said Kinneil Coltman, DHA, senior vice president, chief community and external affairs officer at Atrium Health. «We’re opening our hearts in new, innovative and thoughtful ways to ensure all members of all our communities receive the care and support they need to stay safe and healthy during these uncertain times.»

Committed to caring for all, Atrium Health understands where one lives, works and plays can have a meaningful impact on health outcomes. Since the initial COVID-19 cases were confirmed in Mecklenburg County and surrounding areas, Atrium Health is protecting the health and well-being of all our minority and underserved communities through existing and new efforts:

Initiated a nationally-leading innovative mobile COVID-19 testing model designed to accommodate schedules for essential workers, ensure the ability to pay is not an inhibiting factor for those who need to be screened and tested, and eliminate barriers to care by not requiring an appointment or referral.
Started a grassroots communication outreach to trusted community leaders, organizations and clergy to help share critical COVID-19-related health information, care, and testing options.
Convened roundtable discussions with service providers to bridge services and resources to meet the needs of our Hispanic community.
Introduced virtual technology support to connect our patients with their families and loved ones as part of their care.
Continued language assistance in over 200 languages to communicate in a way our patients are most comfortable.
Established a dedicated Spanish-translated coronavirus webpage with information, resources and a free risk-assessment.
Continued protecting our patients’ information, including immigration status, to ensure nothing prevents our patients from getting the care they need to get better and stay safe.
Built a robust data infrastructure to track and monitor for health disparities among the underserved and communities of color.
Formed a Multicultural Communications Taskforce to provide culturally responsive communications and a Disparities Work Group comprised of teammates across the system to identify ways to further address disparities and access to testing.

«As representatives and supporters of the Latino business community in our region, we are incredibly thankful to have our partners at Atrium Health so deeply involved in the safety and health of our community,» said Rocio Gonzalez-Zornosa, executive director of the Latin American Chamber of Commerce of Charlotte. «We applaud that they are not waiting for individuals to come to them, but they are going out into the communities they serve and offering their services ‘for all.’ We appreciate having access to Atrium Health’s in-language information, their 24/7 hotline, website resources, and their constant involvement in the many community groups. It is clear that Atrium Health truly wants to ensure they are meeting the needs of our businesses, workforce and families.»

Experts believe there are several prominent reasons why the Hispanic community may be at greater risk for contracting COVID-19, including the fact that many are still working in essential jobs. Additionally, these communities face obstacles to care including socioeconomic challenges, language barriers, cultural differences and concerns seeking timely healthcare due to underlying fears based on their immigration status.

In the wake of even the most difficult times, quality care should never discriminate – and at Atrium Health, it doesn’t. No matter one’s age, race or socioeconomic status – regardless of where someone comes from or their personal history – Atrium Health is the leader throughout the region providing compassionate care now and always.

About Atrium Health
Atrium Health is a nationally recognized leader in shaping health outcomes through innovative research, education and compassionate patient care. Headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, Atrium Health is an integrated network not-for-profit healthcare system with over 70,000 teammates at nearly 40 hospitals and 900 care locations. With locations throughout the Carolinas as well as Georgia, Atrium Health is a leading-edge innovator in virtual care and mobile medicine. It provides top-ranked pediatric, cancer and heart care to patients, as well as specialized musculoskeletal programs and organ transplants. Ranked among U.S. News & World Report’s Best Hospitals in seven different specialties, it has also received the American Hospital Association’s Quest for Quality Prize.
