Question: What is the actual definition of a Prevention initiative? I need to know the formal definition of a prevention initiative and it would really help me if someone could answer these questions ...Discuss the impact of prevention initiatives such as MADD and DARE or others on society. Describe to me what a prevention initiative is, who uses prevention initiatives, and what prevention initiatives are suppose to do. Do they work? Describe the impact of these prevention initiatives? You should discus your own experiences with prevention initiatives (if you have them). Have you ever attended a MADD presentation or listened to a DARE educator?

Answer: - It's pretty self explanatory. Initiatives designed to prevent certain actions or decisions. Most common for alcohol, teen sex, drugs, and smoking. I had a MADD presentation at traffic school (No, I was there for speeding). The "instructor" did a good job spouting prepared information and statistics, but turned out to know little beyond the spiel she memorized. I'm not a big fan of alcohol + vehicles, but I'm a bigger fan of factual evidence. The presenter relied on the emotional and rhetorical arguments that in some cases were unsubstantiated.

Question: What is the best cancer prevention you can recommend? Cancer runs all over my family and I want to provide my family with the best chance of prevention.. as a mom and as a wife. What cancer prevention tips do you have? Look for Food, Herbs, General Health tips etc. Thanks!

Answer: If the cancer that's running all over your family is the exact same cancer, then you just have to be diligent in your check ups.

Question: How much do heartworm prevention meds cost and how often are they needed for my puppy? I have a 5 month puppy I want to get started on heartworm prevention. Just wondering on the cost and if it can be bought over the counter or must be through a vet. Also, what medications would you suggest?

Answer: My favorite is the spot-on monthly application, REVOLUTION..as it protects against most parasites, including heartworm. 'But, it is more expensive than some of the others. ($13 per month) You can get the first one from your vet, and sometimes it is free, as a promotional trial..but the office visit isn't free, unless you are taking him in for his shots, anyway. (My breed is like the collie, in that they don't tolerate the common meds). Then you can order them from petmeds online, or continue getting them at the counter in your vet's office. Added: (for those who say not to buy online) PetMeds gets a prescription from your vet. They don't sell heartworm prevention without a prescription. But, they take care of it for you.

Question: What kind of flea prevention should i use for my kitten? She is about 8 weeks old and I've read the flea collars arent good for kittens so young. She is indoors but she already has some fleas from before we got her because she came from a farm where she was outdoors some. I've had awful experiences with fleas and I'd like to stop them before they get bad, ASAP. What kind of prevention should I use?

Answer: I use Frontline Spot On treatment (it looks like this http://www.vetuk.co.uk/images/fronline%20cat.JPG). It is quite easy to apply (although easier if you have 2 people, 1 to hold the cat and 1 to apply the liquid) and has worked almost instantly every time I've used it. I think it's about £20 which sounds steep for 3 sachets but it's good stuff and stops you wasting money on flea sprays and things that i don't think work.

Question: What is the best prevention method during sex in your view? Do you think condom is the best? Do women feel satisfaction if a men use condom,I mean cause they wouldn't have direct touch. Or maybe natural prevention is better? What do you think?

Question: How can society raise prevention care demand to meet supply? Just as McDonald's scrapped the McLean burger because their customers didn't want lean meat, how can the industry of prevention care survive if the public is not used to/doesn't want prevention care? How can institutions raise the demand for prevention care?

Answer: I'm willing to bet that you, your friends, and your acquaintances don't do all that they should do all the time - not just in the way of preventative health care (good nutrition, exercise, plenty of sleep, etc.) but in all the other areas of life. So you tell us. What would make you, your friends, and your acquaintances do what you all know you should be doing but still aren't?

Question: What kind of questions do the loss prevention supervisor ask? i work part-time at a clothing retail store. I've been working here for almost 2 years now. I've met the loss prevention supervisor a few times, but never had a one-on-one interview. He's coming into the store tomorrow to have an interview with all the associates and the managers. I hear that our store is a target store, meaning people have been stealing. I for one, have never stole anything. I get nervous around new people and interviews because I am at first shy. What kind of questions will he ask??

Answer: Loss prevention people will ask if you are aware of any thefts, potential thefts, lapses in security practices, and ways to improve loss prevention. If you are truly innocent of any such stealing, then you have nothing to worry about. Most discussions are treated confidentially, so just relax, be honest and the interview will be over shortly.

Question: How do you start a Crisis Intervention/Prevention Center? How do you start a crisis intervention center? The region in which I live in does not have a crisis intervention center and one is desperately needed. How do you start a Crisis Center (Prevention & Intervention)? The Crisis Center should have a Hot-line for child abuse victims, domestic violence victims, rape victims, suicidal callers, etc. How do you start one in a region or go about starting one? Please help!

Answer: You should check with your local cities and communities to see what their input is first. Second check with your local Fire and Police Dept to see what their feedback on the subject is. Lastly check with area secular and non secular Social Service agencies in your area to see what major problems they not only face in the community but what additional needs are not being met. Make sure you catalog all information gathered. We have a crisis center here that was just started up with several cities contributing to the services provided. One of the main functions it to bring clients in immediately. Whether they come in on their own or are provided assistance through Police, Fire Dept or Social Services they are getting the intervention/prevention that is needed. The staff at the Crisis Center is made up of medical, legal, and behavioral personal. The director of the center is a Master Social Worker. Once you do an assessment of what is needed present this to the cities and communities in your area. You will need to seek funding source, building where it can be conveniently located for all to use, It usually is used 24/7, and apply for a non profit status unless you can find an agency to umbrella under. I will list some resource below that you can check into. These are becoming more and more accepted in our community unfortunately and believe that prevention it usually not thought of until it is time for intervention. The second link below is about the one in my area. Good Luck.
