Abstract:

Under början av 1990-talet infördes reformer som än idag påverkar svensk äldreomsorg. Dessa reformer föranledde till stora förändringar i den offentliga sektorn, där privatiseringen av offentliga tjänster är en del av resultatet. I nästan tre decennier har resultatet av dessa reformer varit väl omdiskuterade i både politiska sammanhang och samhället, där äldreomsorgen är en av de stora reformerna som diskuteras. Föreliggande studie jämför och analyserar tillförlitlig kvalitet på given vård i äldreomsorgen mellan den offentliga och privata sektorn eftersom den privata sektorn ibland har ett vin

Abstract:

Antalet äldre blir idag allt fler och behovet av vård flyttas upp i åldrarna. Det kräver att insatser inom äldrevård och omsorg håller hög kvalité och placerar människan i centrum för att skapa förutsättningar för äldre att leva ett värdigt, meningsfullt liv och känna välbefinnande. Frågan om mat, trygghet, identitet, social interaktion, anpassning och KASAM är faktorer som påverkar äldres tillvaro på äldreboende. Syftet med studien var att få djupare kunskap och förståelse i äldres livsvärld på äldreboende, hur man som boende upplever sin vardag och vilken betydelse äldreboendet som instituti

Abstract:

This study explores explanations for Chinese elders’ willingness or lack of willingness to use institutional care. The data is drawn from a survey over intergenerational relationships and age models conducted in Zhenjiang, China, in 2007. Only the responses of interviewees aged 55 and above (310 males and 318 females) were used in this study. Using zero-order correlation and multi-nominal regression analyses, this study examined the factors associated with Chinese elders’ willingness to use institutional care. Study results reveal that Chinese elders’ confidence in availability of familial car

The following exploration represents a search for clarity and meaning in the formative work of a young architectural designer.

The deeper task was to become more literate with the materials and tools of the architect's trade and develop a confidence with the language and grammar of architecture.

Abstract:

This licentiate thesis is based on the growing interest in Swedish elderly care. The aim of this thesis is to investigate what generates satisfaction with elderly care among older persons. The dominant ideology in both privately and publically run elderly care is individualized care, also called person-centered care, which holds the older person’s satisfaction as one of the main quality indicators. The proportion of older people is increasing and to maintain high levels of satisfaction with elderly care will require more knowledge. Data from the National Board of Health and Welfare’s (2012) na

Abstract:

General acceptance of a pattern of activities of daily living (ADL) dependency has led to the use of an additive method of determining self-care dependency and need for long-term care. This traditional method of determining ADL levels is convenient, and it is practical to the extent that individuals in a long-term care population do fit a scaled pattern of dependency. This research was based on 3611 cases from the Preadmission Screening Program of the Virginia Medical Assistance Program.

Abstract:

The aging population is growing and as more elderly need nursing the demand on elderly care is increasing. There is a risk of not having enough staff in an industry that already lacks educated staff. Many of the employees also complain that they are stressed out. This has led to an increasing number of gadgets and tools used within elderly care but not without problems. The technologies have been criticized for being designed to fit the need of the people in control rather than the elderly and the caregivers.

Background: Since aging population keeps increasing, more and more private elderly care facility companies emerged in elderly care market, and this industry gradually became one of the pillar industries in Japan. However, a strange phenomenon is that private elderly care facilities in Japan fails to attract elderly customers while there are society demand to expand the number of facility. This leads to bankruptcies of private elderly care facilities. On the other hand, Sweden enjoys a high reputation of elderly care. Also Swedish elderly care industry is more mature than Japan, therefore this

We are living increasingly longer in a society that is struggling to define how to treat the very old, particularly those in care homes. The concept of dignity can guide how an older individual in care ought to be treated. In this dissertation I argue for an understanding of dignity that is built around the views of the persons cared for, and for the introduction of laws and policies aimed at creating conditions amenable to its realisation. Dignity must be viewed as rooted in our concrete autonomy, one that sees us embodied and embedded in the connections we make with others throughout our liv
