Abstract:

Bakgrund: Sexuell hälsa är en mänsklig rättighet, även för den äldre populationen trots fördomar och tabun som motsäger detta. Sexualitet och intimitet kan yttra sig på fler sätt än penetrativt sex, som handhållning och komplimanger. Vårdpersonal har som arbetsuppgift att hjälpa sina patienter att uppnå bästa möjliga hälsa och sexuell hälsa, samt att dokumentera detta, speciellt för sjuksköterskor. Syfte: Examensarbetets syfte var att belysa vårdpersonals erfarenheter vid samtal om sexualitet och intimitet med äldre som bor på särskilt boende. Metod: En litteraturstudie med kvalitativ ansats

Abstract:

The overall aim of the present thesis was to study factors related to transfers of older people between nursing homes, emergency department and hospital care. The thesis was based on four studies and used three methods: focus group discussions, structured review of electronic healthcare records, semi-structured interviews with registered nurses and general practitioners. Study I: nursing home nurses found it difficult to decide whether older residents should be referred to hospital from the nursing home. Hospital registered nurses reported often trying to stop premature discharges or having to

Abstract:

Background: Current palliative care recommendations stress the right to care according to palliative principles at the end of life for all people in need thereof, regardless of care place and including those who are old. The international literature indicates that residents in nursing homes often do not have access to palliative care competence. Accordingly, insufficient management and lack of communication about end-of-life issues have been reported. There is a scarcity of robust Swedish studies about the quality of care at the end of life in nursing homes. Aim: To explore the care being prov

Abstract:

This study aimed to investigate the inter-relationships between self-stigma, loneliness, and culture among older adults with mental illness residing in nursing homes. This study also explored how this population experiences self-stigma and loneliness within the context of their cultural backgrounds. A mixed-methods approach was utilised. The first phase involved a quantitative face-to-face questionnaire survey (n=16). More than half of the study participants reported low levels of self-stigma (56.3%), yet a substantial number of them scored high on the self-stigma scale (43.8%). The analysis i

Abstract:

Older people residing in nursing homes have complex needs requiring the input of nurses skilled in managing multi-morbidities and psychosocial issues. However, in England, nursing homes have proven to be unappealing work settings for potential staff, while nurses who do work in these settings are often afforded low status. Such contradictions pervade current understanding of the nature of work in nursing homes. To-date, few studies have investigated the views and experiences of nursing home nurses themselves regarding the contradictions that arise from role and status issues. This study explor

Abstract:

The aim of this report is to understand the actual needs of older people who live in a nursing home in Sweden. Qualitative method was applied in order to collect data from interviews of both older people and staffs of the nursing home. Data analysis was performed by using hermeneutical circle. The results revealed the basic needs, the psychological needs, the self-fulfillment and the ‘needs and wants’ of older people. The results showed that the needs of older people were varied as individuals are unique. In general, the basic needs are for survival, and the needs of families, communications,

Abstract:

The need for Registered Nurses (RNs) in the long-term care of older people is being questioned, particularly in the context of nursing shortages, while suggestions for 'professionalising' Care Assistant (CA) roles are emerging.

The study was also informed by interviews with two architects, who specialise in the design of nursing homes and aged care facilities.

Abstract:

Prescribing of psychoactive medications for older residents in nursing homes has been a cause for concern and such medications have been described as ‘chemical restraints’. One factor which may influence the prescribing of these medicines is treatment culture, defined as the way in which prescribing of psychoactive medication is undertaken. Nursing homes have been defined as resident-centred (least likely to use psychoactive medication), traditional (most likely to use psychoactive medication) or ambiguous (a combination of the two) in terms of treatment culture.

The hospitalized group (n = 100) were discharged to a hospital within 30 days of admission to the nursing home. The presence of HCFA irregularities increased the odds for hospitalization of an elderly nursing home resident by 1.67.
