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. This thesis has mapped the situation within todays elderly care and provided a soluti

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
