Texto completoEvery day, India sees the addition of 5,000 new cases of diabetes to its current diabetic population of 65 million people. This number is projected to cross the 100 million mark in 15 years. The emerging pandemic scale of diabetes growth is straining India's already-overburdened public healthcare resources. India is home to several well-established native and adapted foreign traditions of medicine that are widely practiced. These traditions include Ayurveda, yoga and naturopathy, unani, siddha, and homeopathy. The modern and traditional medicine approaches are extensively used as independent systems. The purpose of this qualitative research case study was to evaluate the use of an integrative approach to address the multiple challenges posed by diabetes in India. The research design for the case study was based on the theoretical framework of participatory action research. The research questions evaluated how the modern and traditional medicine systems can be jointly used to contain the spread, scale, and immensity of diabetes in India and examined the barriers and challenges in combining various systems of medicine. Data were collected from interviews with 30 modern and traditional medical practitioners and 6 policy makers identified through a stratified purposeful sampling process. The transcribed data were coded thematically and objectively analyzed. The trustworthiness of interpretations was bolstered with triangulation through records from notes and observations. In evaluating the feasibility of a synergistic and integrative approach, the study filled a gap in scholarly literature. The study contributes to social change by adding to the existing body of knowledge available to physicians and patients in preventing and containing the diabetes pandemic.

Texto completoBrown, Kathryn. "Workplace incivility in a large metropolitan healthcare organization". Thesis, Northern Kentucky University, 2014. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3622556.
Texto completoHealthcare today is constantly transforming as hospital systems are challenged to maximize productivity and value. Factors such as occupational stress, difficult working conditions, unresolved conflict, lack of leadership, and increased complexity of healthcare foster disruptive and uncivil behavior and directly impact work performance, patient safety, and the physical well-being of those providing or supporting the care given to patients. The objectives of this study were to: 1. assess the prevalence of incivility within a large metropolitan healthcare organization, 2. determine differences in the frequency of incivility within select occupational groups, and 3. examine the relation between incivility and productivity, organizational commitment, job satisfaction, and workplace stress. The study was a cross-sectional, correlation design, using survey methodology. Data were collected from employees working in one organization consisting of an acute care facility, outpatient centers, and ambulatory locations. The study population included direct and non-direct patient care job categories and physicians.

Texto completoWhite, Dawn Reid. "Workplace Bullying from a Nurse's Perspective". Thesis, Walden University, 2018. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10747797.
Texto completoBullying has long been associated with school children. In recent years, however, more attention has been paid to the bullying that has reached beyond the playground and into the workforce. One population facing this problem is staff nurses. To date, no one has found an effective way to address workplace bullying in the healthcare field, nor have effective methods been found for retaining trained nurses affected by this problem. The focus of this dissertation was on understanding nurses’ lived experiences and how nurses decided to remain in their current working position despite these problems. Taking a phenomenological approach and using the conceptual framework of resilience, the study included telephone interviews of 2 pilot study participants and 12 main study participants. Recorded and transcribed participant responses to interview questions were coded thematically and analyzed. Three main themes emerged: stories of working with workplace bullying, challenges of the lived experiences of being bullied, and special techniques of nurses being bullied. Three subthemes also emerged: despair, love of being a nurse, and resilience. This study gave a voice to nurses affected by this problem, revealing special challenges they encounter and coping strategies they employ. Hospital administrators can use the findings of this study to create social change within nurses’ working environment by implementing policies that will keep their nurses safe and happily employed. Future research should focus on workplace bullying in the nursing field and how it affects patient safety.

Texto completoMitchell, Cheryl L. "Blame is not a game| Healthcare leaders' perspectives on blame in the workplace". Thesis, Fielding Graduate University, 2014. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3639682.
Texto completoThis exploratory research increases knowledge and understanding of blame in the workplace. Attribution theory, moral philosophy, and social cognition provided a theoretical framework to understand individual blame determination as a precursor to understand systemic blame. Systemic blame is informed by complex systems theory and research on "no blame" cultures in a healthcare setting.
Interpretive description, supported by applied thematic analysis, provided the methodological framework for this qualitative study. The 17 senior leaders interviewed for this research study were selected through purposive sampling, and individually had an average 28 years of experience in healthcare. The semi-structured interviews were designed to gather experiences and stories that informed the participants' perspectives on blame in the workplace.
Constant comparative thematic analysis of the data resulted in four main findings. First, blame is prevalent in the workplace. Second, blame begets blame through a vicious cycle of blame. In this cycle there is often unwarranted blame. Blame feels bad, which results in fear of blame and avoidance of blame. One way to avoid blame is to blame someone else. This positive reinforcing feedback loop of blame creates a culture of blame. Third, a culture of blame includes characteristics of risk aversion and mistrust. Risk aversion decreases innovation, and mistrust decreases transparent communication. Fourth, blame has an inverse relationship to accountability, where less blame may result in more accountability. These findings both confirm and contradict the current literature. The resulting conclusion is blame is not a game.

Texto completoA Survey of Physical Therapists’ Perceptions of Workplace Ethics in the State of Georgia. Roberto Cantu, 2014: Applied Dissertation, Nova Southeastern University, Abraham S. Fischler School of Education. ERIC Descriptors: Physical Therapy, Ethics, Conflict of Interest, Ethical Instruction, Job Satisfaction.
This study examined how physical therapists in Georgia perceive ethical climates in their workplaces, based on the use of the Ethics Environment Questionnaire (EEQ), and how these perceptions may be different based on the type of workplace, financial status of their workplaces, their respective positions within their organizations, their age, gender, and years in the profession.
Questionnaires were sent to a random sample of 1200 physical therapists in Georgia; 340 surveys were completed and returned. The results suggested that, overall, physical therapists in Georgia are satisfied with the ethical environments of their workplaces. The average score was 3.8, higher than the 3.5 cutoff score that indicates an ethical environment. The only sub-group that scored below 3.5 on the EEQ were those who worked in skilled nursing/assisted living facilities (M = 3.35, SD = .67). There was a statistically significant difference in scores between therapists working in for-profit settings (M = 3.75, SD = .55) and therapists working in not-for-profit settings (M = 3.88, SD = .45; t (335) = -2.21, p = .027). Clinicians had the lowest perceptions of ethical climate (3.73), executives/owners the highest (4.29), with middle managers scoring in between the two groups. There were strong negative correlations between the perception of an ethical environment with burnout and intent to leave the place of employment (rs = -.66, p < .01; rs = -.524, p < .01).
Increased governmental/insurance regulation, increased paperwork, decreased reimbursement, and productivity issues were areas of most concern to therapists. Greater communication and dialogue between clinicians and managers was the dominant theme in the recommended solutions to these concerns.
Sanderson, LuAnn. "Improving civility in the mental health nursing workplace through assertiveness training with role-play". Thesis, Western University of Health Sciences, 2013. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3587674.
Texto completoIncivility is a low-level form of violence that has been found to threaten safety and has gained increasing attention from healthcare leaders. Incivility at work causes distractions and threatens the culture of safety. Locations providing mental health services are among such high-risk areas. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a nurse leader’s educational approach to improve civility in the mental health (MH) nursing workplace using assertiveness training with role-play.
The civility score in this study was measured by staffs’ perceptions of eight items: respect; conflict resolution; cooperation; anti-discrimination; value differences; diversity acceptance; personal interest; and reliability of team members. In this study, the principal investigator (PI), a MH nurse leader, prepared and implemented a six-month plan of evidence-based actions intended to improve civility and to strengthen the sense of community.
Role-play exercises were included in assertiveness training sessions. Personalized brochures that summarized information and future direction for improving civility were prepared and distributed.
Civility awareness and assertiveness were reinforced by sharing literature, facilitating discussions, and practicing occasional role-plays to problem-solve past and current incivilities as they surfaced. Follow-up measurements showed a rapid and sharp increase in civility, with improved scores for each of the eight items. These findings support continued use of assertiveness training with role-play as an effective approach for improving civility in a culturally diverse MH nursing staff. Limitations of this study are discussed.
Chikono, Nathan Nomore. "Leadership Practices that Improve the Workplace Safety Environment". Thesis, Walden University, 2017. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=10259015.
Texto completoInadequate leadership is the reason workplace accidents in the mining industry remain high, making the industry one of the most hazardous operational activities in the world. Unsafe leadership practices may result in death or injury to workers. A group of 30 mining company leaders from 3 gold mines in Zimbabwe revealed an exception to these hazardous practices, however, notable through their outstanding safety improvement records. To better understand what these practitioners were doing, this multicase study research design explored their strategies to improve the workplace safety environment in the mines. Data were collected using audio-recorded semistructured interviews and document analyses. Shewhart’s plan-do-check-act conceptual framework anchored the study. Data analysis followed the thematic data analytic approach involving classification, coding, and interpretation to identify common themes. The following themes emerged: planning and organizing, leading, and risk management. The findings indicate that the business leaders created a safe work environment by planning the work to be performed; how the task would be executed; and when, where, and who performed the task. The results of study also indicate that leaders designed the work environment, trained, empowered, and equipped employees with the relevant skills, and provided appropriate technology and personal protective equipment to improve workplace safety. Finally, the research findings indicate that leaders embedded risk management principles and practices in every process or activity, and continuously learned from each event to create a safe work environment. The findings promote social change by encouraging safe behavior and risk-based thinking and practices in the workforce and the community.

Texto completoIM (Integrativ Vård mer adekvat term på svenska) är ett vårdkoncept/vårdansats som mer fokuserar på patienters välmående och läkeprocesser än enbart deras sjukdom. IM överlämnar makten och utbildar individen till att själv bli aktiva i sin vård, den framhäver vikten av en god vårdande relation och använder alla tillämpliga evidensbaserade metoder. Den hälsofrämjande grunden i IM är i linje med ett nyligen utvecklat hälsobegrepp, som beskriver hälsa som ”en persons förmåga till att anpassa sig och hantera utmaningar”. Utifrån den liknande grunden och förutsättningarna hos IM och det nya hälsobegreppet så kan en integration av dem vara en understödjande faktor för utveckling och implementering av IM. Utifrån en praktisk synvinkel så innebär en integrativ vårdansats att den som vårdar måste inneha specifika kompetenser och förmågor relaterade till bland annat socio-kommunikativ och självreflektiv förmåga, såväl som en reflektiv öppenhet till ett holistiskt perspektiv på hälsa. Tidigare forskning har visat att en Mind-Body Medicine (MBM) kurs potentiellt kan understödja utveckling av dessa kompetenser bland framtida vårdare. Denna avhandling avsåg i första hand att uppnå ökad insikt i förutsättningar och verktyg för implementering av Integrativ Vård. Mer specifikt syftade den till att beskriva attityder till, och utövande av IM bland Nederländska sjuksköterskor, samt undersöka stödet för det nya dynamiska hälsobegreppet (”en persons förmåga till att anpassa sig och hantera utmaningar”) bland intressenter inom Nederländsk Hälso- och Sjukvård. Vidare i andra hand, avsåg avhandlingen också att utvärdera förutsättningarna för att använda en MBM kurs som ett verktyg till att understödja och fostra ett mer integrativt förhållningssätt bland läkar- och sjuksköterskestudenter. Metod Både kvantitativ såväl som kvalitativ forskningsdesign tillämpades. Attityder till, och utövande av IM undersöktes i en semistrukturerad enkätstudie bland 355 Nederländska sjuksköterskor (studie I). Stödet för det nya hälsobegreppet undersöktes i en studie som genomfördes med mixad design, där i det första steget data från individuella- och fokusgruppintervjuer bland 140 intressenter genomgick en manifest innehållsanalys, och i det andra steget genomfördes en tvärsnittsstudie bland 1938 intressenter för att validera fynden från det första steget (Studie II). MBM kursen utvärderades i en kontrollerad, kvasi-experimentell interventionsstudie (71 deltagare/61 kontroller bland läkarstudenter, och 47 deltagare/64 kontroller bland sjuksköterskestudenter) med validerade frågeformulär (Studie III). Vidare även i en Fenomenologisk-Hermeneutisk ansats via individuella intervjuer med 11 läkar- och 15 sjuksköterskestudenter för att uppnå en djupare förståelse över MBM kursens betydelse för deltagarna (Studie IV). Fynd I studie I framkom att sjuksköterskorna övergripande hade en positiv attityd till IM. Patientcentrering och fokus på individens resurser, samt deras egna ansvar för att arbeta hälsofrämjande var områden som hade mest stöd bland både sjuksköterskor och andra intressenter. Dessa element ansågs också av intressenterna vara den mest positiva aspekten av det nya dynamiska hälsobegreppet (Studie II). Användandet av evidensbaserade komplementärmedicinska metoder och hälsofrämjande miljöer stöddes till viss del av sjuksköterskorna men brist på kunskap och brist på evidens förefaller vara hinder för integration i nuvarande vårdpraxis (Study I). I studie II framkom att begreppet hälsa uppfattades som att bestå i sex olika dimensioner; ”kroppslig funktion”, ”mental funktion och perception”, ”spirituell/existentiell dimension”, ”livskvalitet”, ”social-samhällelig inklusion” samt ”daglig funktion”. I samklang med patienter, så hade sjuksköterskor en bredare syn på hälsa än andra hälsoprofessioner. I studie III framkom långsiktiga positiva effekter av att delta i MBM kursen avseende i två dimensioner av empatisk förmåga (Personal distress och Empatic concern) bland läkarstudenterna, samt avseende upplevd stressnivå (perceived stress) och empati (personal distress) bland sjuksköterskestudenterna. I studie IV framkom att MBM kursen kan ses som ”en väg till inre medvetenhet och stöd till att knyta an till andra och den omgivande världen” vidare identifierades temana: ”en förmåga till en mer medveten närvaro”, ”en ökad uppfattningsförmåga och inre medvetenhet” samt ”att knyta an till andra människor på en djupare nivå”. Slutsats Utifrån resultaten i avhandlingens explorativa (I, II) del är slutsatsen att de observerade positiva attityderna, och uppfattningarna bland vårdgivare avseende IM och det nyutvecklade hälsobegreppet kan ses som viktiga facilitatorer för ytterligare implementering av IM i det Nederländska hälso- och sjukvårdssystemet. Vidare, den ökade förmågan att hantera stress, utveckla empatisk förmåga och mer öppenhet för nya perspektiv på hälsa och behandlingsalternativ hos läkar- och sjuksköterskestudenter efter deltagande i en MBM kurs (implementeringsdelen i denna avhandling, III, IV), stöttar antagandet att kursen kan ses som ett användbart verktyg för att understödja en mer integrativ vårdansats bland framtida vårdpersonal.

Texto completoENGLISH ABSTRACT: The study investigated implementation of HIV/AIDS policy by senior management in Youngsfield military base. Some of the aspects evaluated included training concerning HIV, campaigns, allocation of budget to manage HIV and knowledge of policy by management. Self-administered questionnaires were used as a method of collecting data. The respondents included in the study ages ranged between 25-59 years. The majority of the respondents did not have any problem in completing questionnaires. Results revealed that involvement of headquarters in allocating funds to acquire training aids, distribution of pamphlets and other information educating personnel insufficient, poor implementation of workplace HIV/AIDS policy by management on all levels, lack of programs dealing with HIV/AIDS and lack of HIV/AIDS policy knowledge by management to lesser extent. Recommendations of this study includes aspects dealing with HIV/AIDS workplace programs, importance of occupational health and safety, addressing stigma and discrimination, absenteeism, HIV/AIDS training and most importantly campaigns throughout the year.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die doel van hierdie navorsing was om die implementering van die beleidsdokument wat handel oor MIV/Vigs in die werksplek deur die senior bestuur in Youngsfield militere basis te ondersoek. Van die aspekte wat die navorser ondersoek het is MIV/Vigs bewusmakingveldtogte, beskikbaarheid van fondse en kennis van die Suid Afrikaanse Nationale Weermag beleidsdocument wat handel oor MIV/Vigs in die werksplek. Studievraelyste is aan respondente uitgedeel. Respondente wat aan die studie deelgeneem het se ouderdome wissel tussen 25 en 59 jaar. Die grootste getal deelnemers het geen beswaar aangeteken om die vraelyste te voltooi nie. Die grootste getal van respondente het aangedui dat die fondse wat beskikbaar gestel word onvoldoende is om die boodskap oor die gevare van MIV/Vigs te versprei. Daar is verder bevind dat belangrike aspekte soos biljette, pamflette, video opnames en getikte material nie versprei kan as gevolg van tekort aan fondse. MIV/Vigs beleid is beskikbaar in militere basisse van die Suid Afrikaanse Nationale Weermag. Die enigste tekort is die implementering daarvan. Die aanbevelings wat bevind is deur die studie sluit in MIV/Vigs programme in die werkplek, die aanspreek van stigma en diskriminasie, afwesigheid weens kroniese siektes wat MIV/Vigs insluit en hantering van ongevalle in die werkplek.

Texto completoBackground: The 2006 employee survey from Anaesthesia Unit 2, at Oslo’s Rikshospital, revealedlow scores regarding anaesthesia nurses` opportunity to influence their own work situation. Purpose: This study aimed to examine work factors that anaesthesia nurses perceive health promoting and to analyze how hospital leadership could initiate a healthier work environment. The value of this assessment is that factors that promote a healthy work environment for anaesthesia nurses will become visible to department management. Method: A qualitative method was used, which included interviews with fourteen anaesthesianurses, working in six different departments. A modified Grounded Theory was applied as a methodfor analysis. Result: Analysis of the interviews yielded a core category: Cooperation for Better or Worse-Anaesthesia Nurses` “Ticket” in the Workplace, and three categories: Leadership, An Organizer of Conditions; Well-being in an Operations Environment and Clarity of Roles.The core category illustrates the coordinated entirety that anaesthesia nurses consider a safeguard inrelation to the patients and other professions. Nurses described great satisfaction in their work aswell as an inkling that differences can occur. Leadership was crystallized as an important factor infacilitating a healthy working environment that satisfies basic personal and professional needs. The respondents perceived production pressure and communication difficulties with close collaborators,as demotivators that sometimes caused lack of trust. Collegial support was a crucial factor in creatingthe perception of a good working environment. A model was developed, which illustrates the basic conditions of practicing the profession, obstacles and restrictions, how nurses experience optimal patient care and fundamental and potential influence of department leadership on both positive and negative factors. Conclusions: The study shows that several important factors contribute to a healthy working environment for the anaesthesia nurses. Leadership should work more actively toward developing ajustifiable framework of management and initiating health promoting efforts that motivate better cooperation between team members. Other important factors for well-being in the workplace included independent work and interdisciplinary collaboration around patient care.

Linger, Rita Anita. "A qualitative study of a mindfulness-based coaching intervention for perception shifts and emotional regulation around workplace stressors and quality of worklife". Thesis, Saybrook University, 2015. http://pqdtopen.proquest.com/#viewpdf?dispub=3683053.
Texto completoThis study examined the effects of a mindfulness-based coaching intervention on perception and emotional regulation shifts related to workplace stressors (internal and external), quality of worklife, interpersonal relationships, and general sense of well-being of high-level executives (HLE) who indicated a desire to improve these areas of their worklife.
Participants in this study were six HLEs, responsible for managing the direction and change strategies of the organization or department under their charge, who supervise, manage others, and work in dynamic environments. Participants identified negative stress response and emotional regulation as well as being focused on the past and the future to be a challenge in their daily work lives.
Kabat-Zinn (2012) posited that mindfulness practice can provide the practitioner with a true embracing of a deeper sense of self and others, which can permeate life and transform the relationship to how one thinks, feels and works. Marlatt and Kristeller (1999) described mindfulness as "bringing one's complete attention to the present experience on a moment to moment basis" (p. 9).
The study included an 8-week mindfulness coaching intervention, pre and post questionnaires, semi-structured interviews. Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), HeartMath Mindful-Hearth Intelligence workbook, tools, exercises and practice were used within a coaching frame work.
A multiple case study design was used and a thematic analysis of the coaching intervention was conducted. The analysis detailed themes and patterns in shifts and changes in perception, emotional regulation around stress response, relationships, and general sense of well-being.
The study elucidated the impact of these interventions on HLEs. Several themes emerged as assets for participants during the intervention, specifically, work stress management, heightened awareness, and acceptance. Suggestion for further research would be to explore the hardiness of the process of acceptance in deepening the impact of the other central themes. An unanticipated result which was explored was the extent to which participants came to understand with kindness and curiosity the negative aspects of nondisclosure within their work culture.

Monenlaiset vaatimukset vaikuttavat siihen, kuinka HSEQ-johtaminen on toteutettu muuttuvassa, monimutkaisessa ja epäyhtenäisessä työympäristössä. Tutkimuksessa kuvattiin HSEQ-johtamisen kehittymistä pohjoissuomalaisissa prosessiteollisuuden yrityksissä (N=6) ja niiden yritysverkostossa, yhteisellä työpaikalla, viimeisen 20 vuoden aikana. Lisäksi kuvattiin HS ja osittain myös EQ [HS(EQ)] -johtamisen menetelmien ja työkalujen nykytilaa kansainvälisessä terästeollisuuden yrityksessä, sekä kehitystarpeita tavoiteltaessa HS(EQ)-johtamisen huippuosaamista. Tutkimus toteutettiin monimenetelmällisenä tapaustutkimuksena: haastattelu, dokumenttien tutkimus, kysely, esikuva-analyysi, SWOT-analyysi. HSEQ-arviointi on kehitetty yhteisille työpaikoille toimittajayritysten HSEQ-suorituskyvyn arviointiin hyödyntäen integroidun johtamisjärjestelmän periaatetta, ja se valittiin yhdeksi päämenetelmäksi tutkimuksen kohteena olevalle yhteiselle työpaikalle. Tutkimuksen kohteena olevan terästeollisuuden alan yrityksen HS-johtaminen perustui OHSAS 18001-järjestelmään. Visio, periaatteet, toimintasuunnitelma, sisäiset standardit ja suorituskyvyn mittarit muodostivat konsernin HS-järjestelmän. Tapaturmataajuuden ja HSEQ-arvioinnin tulosten perustella kehitys on ollut positiivista. Konsernin HS-vaatimukset ja paikalliset HS(EQ)-käytännöt antoivat kohtuulliset työkalut turvallisuuskulttuurin ja HS(EQ)-suorituskyvyn kehittämiselle. Suositukset koskivat yhteisillä työpaikoilla ja kansainvälisessä työympäristössä toimivien organisaatioiden HS(EQ)-johtamisen työkaluja, käytäntöjä ja mittareita. Pitäisi keskittyä ennakointiin, kuten ennakoiviin turvallisuusmittareihin ja luomaan yhtenäinen kestävä turvallisuuskulttuuri yhteiselle työpaikalle. Jokaisen organisaatiotason tulisi sitoutua kehittämiseen hyödyntäen osallistuvaa kehittämistä. Sisäisillä hyvillä käytännöillä ja ulkoisella esikuva-analyysilla voidaan tukea kehittämistä. HSEQ-johtamista, muutoksenhallintaa, sisäistä ja ulkoista standardointia sekä tietoteknisiä järjestelmiä pitäisi hyödyntää

Texto completoBackground: Nursing profession has undergone major changes in recent decades. The nurse is expected to be a link between all parts in the care chain in an organization where reorganization takes place and working conditions are continuously changing. Stress is an internal phenomenon in care work and is just as the concept of health of highly individual and complex. The nurse needs to take care of her/his own health in order to the care of patients. While the nurse has a responsibility the prerequisite for being capable to provide good care is that the organization, management and workplace is designed to make it possible for the nurse to maintain health. Aim: The aim was to describe nurses' experiences of their work situation in order to understand how it affects their own health. Method: The thesis is a literature review. The result is based on nine pieces of scientific articles. The articels were read several times and the similarities and differences were identified. Results: The following main themes emerged; nurse's experience of the organization, the nurse's experience of management, the nurse's experience of stress and nurses' experience of meeting the patient. The second main theme has three sub-themes; not to be listened to, not to get support and to get support. The main theme of three has two sub-themes; negative stress and positive stress that develops. Discussions: The results were discussed using transition as a theoretical base. The nurses had rather similar views about their work situation as showed also in other studies. They experienced a high degree of stress and dissatisfaction with the management and organization in their workplace that highlights the deficiencies in management, and organization that have strong impact on health.

Texto completoThe society, in its multiple dimensions, has been in constant construction of a new reality. Values, ideas and paradigms alternate in \"des\" and \"reconstruction\" of what sustains and guides. The Sanitary Reform becomes a particul ar movement, but contextualized in a process of political democratization of Brazilian society. This movement represents a struggle for specific model of health care and is also part of a totality, since consolidated in health, democratic rights debated by various sectors of Brazilian society. The search for a new design of health care by society starts from the fundame ntal principles and guidelines of the Unified Health System, since these, in addition to ensure a new model of care, would allow the foundation for a more participatory management model which would enable the continuation of this movement. In this context, nursing lacks a process to update its concepts and arrangements and needs to allow social change to collaborate in building the profile that is needed to ensure the \"continuity\" in the natural process of changing public policies that require, among other things, \"fle xibility and creativity\" by wo rkers. This study aimed to analyze the participatory management in the cont ext of the Unified Health System, in light of the scientific evidence for the identification of relevant categories in the construction process of nursing work. To meet the objectives of this study, we performed an integrative review of existing literature that provided a deeper knowle dge of thematic and gave conditions for the development of a specific concept. The reading of the articles followed the proposal of thematic content analysis, by Minayo, and some themes emerged from the reading, so that they represent some important aspects of nursing work in the context of Participatory Management. Thus, we identified the following themes in the selected samples: Reorientation of Care Practice, Work Overload, Ethics Ma nagement, Participation, Leadership, Conflict Management, Professional Qualification, Political Education, and Flexibilization of the Relations. It is concluded that nursing requires a systematic reorientation of their work process, so that it can align itself with the public policy of participatory management and achieve the benefits of this management in the profile of their workers.

Texto completoHome care nurses (HCNs) have reported a high rate of exposure to work-related injuries (WRIs). Nurses are challenged by the multidimensional problems associated with home care safety. These contextual risk factors increase the physical and social health problems of health care workers and of community suffering as a whole. This quantitative, cross-sectional study was designed to examine the relationship between the organization-related factors (ORFs) and the environment-related factors (ERFs) and their influences on safety behaviors (SBs) and the WRIs of HCNs. The PRECEDE framework was used to guide the study. Self-reported data were obtained from 74 home health care (HHC) nurses using the Safety Home Care Nursing questionnaire. A linear regression model was applied to determine the nature of the association between the independent variables and dependents variables. Findings showed the ORFs demonstrate a stronger effect on the SBs than the impact of the ERFs. The management commitment and the home-based care significantly affected the SBs. The supervisory support and safety access to a client's home were decreasing the WRIs. Therefore, the integration of efforts: The management and leadership of the health organization, the health care providers, and the clients’ family would improve safety of HHC. This study is expected to help develop safety strategies for home care and thus attempt to minimize WRIs among HCNs. Nurses free of injuries are able to provide a quality of care and improve patients’ health outcomes that in turn have an effect on reducing community suffering and financial costs.

Texto completoSick leave and staff turnover is high in the healthcare system where its professionals work environment is very often demanding. Nonetheless, some organizations have succeeded in maintaining low absence due to sickness. What keeps the personnel in these organizations healthy? The aim of this study is to investigate which strategies employees in the public healthcare system apply to maintain their health and what they acknowledge to be a contributive factor for a healthier workplace and a more health promoting work environment. We have, with content analysis as a working tool, reviewed a total of nine health workers interviews. The result shows that the employees have developed both strategies and acquired a sort of inner drive that helps them to handle their working situation. What improves their happiness at work are the colleagues, that gives them a sense of security and creates comfort. The importance of the working group is central to the result. Through the creation of routines, by helping and having fun together the group succeeds in pushing through day-to-day challenges. Leadership on the other hand is considered to be relatively inexistent. A balance between recovery and stimulating activities contributes in replenishing energy that health workers consider to be key to guarantee a healthier work-life. The ambition with this study is to provide answers regarding the purpose but also serve as a basis for a discussion from a sustainability perspective. This in order to that organizations in the healthcare business continue developing whilst focusing on promoting health and sustainability as much as possible, both for the present and future generations.

Texto completoAsplund, L (2007). Systematiskt arbetsmiljöarbete. Nyckelpersonsintervjustudie om uppfattning kring arbetsmiljöarbete, lönsamhet och prioriteringar på en arbetsplats 15 högskolepoäng, Magisterprogrammet. Högskolan i Gävle, Institutionen för Pedagogik, didaktik och psykologi.
Bakgrund
Att arbeta systematiskt med arbetsmiljöarbete är ett krav för alla arbetsgivare enligt svensk arbetsmiljölag. Alla arbetsgivare förväntas göra riskbedömningar och ta fram lösningar för att förebygga olyckor. Det systematiska arbetsmiljöarbetet på arbetsplatsen ska hanteras som en naturlig del i den dagliga verksamheten och omfattar de fysiska, psykologiska och sociala förhållandena i arbetsmiljön.
Syfte:
Att undersöka nyckelpersoners uppfattningar om vad som påverkar prioriteringar av systematiskt arbetsmiljöarbete på ett företag samt studera deras uppfattningar om arbetsmiljöförändring i relation till ökad lönsamhet.
Urval
Inför nyckelpersonsintervjuerna kontaktades personalansvarig som i sin tur valde ut nyckelpersonerna. Chefer, områdesansvariga och skyddsombud intervjuades. Intervjupersonerna valdes ut då en speciell kompetens för området krävdes. Sex av intervjuerna utfördes under en veckas tid på de intervjuades arbetsplats. En kort intervju med skyddsombudet utfördes fyra veckor senare på företaget.
Design och metod
För att besvara frågeställningarna utfördes intervju på sex nyckelpersoner utifrån en intervjuguide. Intervjuerna tog cirka 30 minuter vardera. Halvstrukturerade intervjuer användes. Intervjuerna transkriberades och analyserades och ytterligare en intervju utfördes efteråt med ett skyddsombud. Intervju användes som metod för datainsamlingen som kom att stå för resultatet.
Resultat
Resultatet visar att informanterna anser att det som mest påverkar prioriteringar kring det systematiska arbetsmiljöarbetet på arbetsplatsen är ekonomin och chefer/ledningens inställning. Annat som påverkar är arbetsmiljölagen och koncernens riktlinjer och budget. Sjuk-frånvarouppföljningar görs i en del i sin strävan att uppnå ökad lönsamhet. Arbetsmiljöförändringar som utförts i strävan att nå ökad lönsamhet och bättre arbetsmiljö har mestadels varit av fysisk ergonomisk art.
Slutsatser
Informanterna gav olika information gällande det pågående arbetsmiljöarbetet. De sade att arbetsmiljöarbetet var fortgående och aktivt och de trodde att personalen ansåg att det inte arbetades särskilt mycket med arbetsmiljöarbete. Skyddsombudet ansåg att det gjordes mer än vad personalen trodde. Detta betyder att kommunikationen kan behövs bättras för att de anställda skall få mer insikt om vad som föregår gällande arbetsmiljöarbete och kan bli mer involverad i själva arbetet.

Asplund, L (2007). Systematic Work Environment Management: Key Informant Interviews about Apprehensions, Priorities and Profitability. Examination paper in Pedagogy, 15 hp. Master’s Programme. University College of Gävle. Department of Education, Curriculum Studies and Psychology.
Background
Every fourth Swedish employee has been found to suffer from some form of work-related ill-health. Legislation, termed Systematic Management of Workplace Environments (SAM), has been enacted to promote optimal physical and psychosocial workplace environments. Em-ployers are obliged to follow the regulations issued by the Swedish Work Environment Au-thority [Arbetetsmiljöverket] and are responsible for operating active workplace environ-ment management plans. Such plans can prevent ill-health and, in some cases, increase the company’s profitability.
Purpose
A medium-sized, retail trade company from in central Sweden was chosen in order to study and analyze how systematic workplace management environment practices were imple-mented in relation to other management priorities and company profitability.
Sample
The key informants were chosen out of the personal manager who was the first contact on the company. Seven key informants, selected on the basis of their knowledge of their com-pany's Systematic Work Environment Management, participated in the study. An additional key informant was later chosen to validate the results. The informant composition was: three informants from middle management, with 5 to 7 years experience of the company, one supervisor (1 year), and three other members of staff (2 and 3 years.) Six qualitative in-terviews were carried out, within the period of one week, in the interviewees' offices. The validating interview was undertaken 4 weeks later, also on the company’s premises.
Design and methods
The company specialized in retail furniture. Non-structured interviews, based on an inter-view guide with 11 open-ended questions, were used. The interviews, lasting about 30 mi-nutes each, were recorded and transcribed. Statements were analyzed for notable differ-ences, similarities, themes and patterns. The statements were then categorized and sub-jected to further analysis.
Results
All the informants felt that the company’s actual practice met the work environment stipula-tions and was on-going. They agreed that workplace environment in general is considered an important issue, but that the company could probably do more to meet the intentions of the work environment legislation. Two specific focal points appeared in the results: ergo-nomic improvement in the workplace and the informants’ aspiration to implement and de-velop a system of caring telephone calls to employees absent through illness.
Conclusions
Management was seen as giving contradictory signals. On the one hand they say that work environment is active and ongoing and on the other hand agree that not enough is being done. The expression of intent does not appear to be matched by actions. Improved educa-tion in systematic workplace environment management would give employees a better un-derstanding of work environment and how systematic workplace management is supposed to operate. The analysis of the informants' suggestions led to a series of proposals for im-provements in workplace environment management strategies. A new plan for employee participation would involve employees being more directly and actively involved with work environment and increase support for the work of the safety representatives.

Texto completoThe complex concept regarding harmful use of different nature, could be related to the use of alcohol, drugs or gambling. Such activities could affect the efficiency and productivity of an employee in a workplace environment in a negative way. At the request of the Public Health Agency of Sweden, a group of scientist was given the task to evaluate a project regarding education concerning problematic gambling. The purpose of the current study is to evaluate a project regarding education concerning gambling and gambling prevention, and was carried out by the organization Alna. Thematic analysis was used and collection of data was done with semi structured interviews, with ten HR-employees whose five organisations was included in the project Gambling and gambling preventive efforts directed towards the labour market. The results show that the methods and tools used by Alna is perceived as efficient and valuable by the participants. Some obstacles which works against efficient implementation of updated policies and guidelines were identified and these could consist of time constraints, under staffing or subordinated priority of the gambling issue per se. Furthermore it seems that the education project regarding gambling prevention performed by Alna has contributed to the development of policies and guidelines regarding harmful use of different kinds with focus on the gambling issue.
