Abstract:
It has been recognised in current literature that, in general, Australia’s population is ageing and that older people are increasingly choosing to continue to live in the community in their own homes for as long as possible. Such factors of social change are expected to lead to larger numbers of older people requiring community care services for longer periods. Despite this, there is little information available in the literature on the perceptions and experiences of older people regarding community-based care and support. This study explores the lived experience of a small group of older

Bakgrund: Omorganisation inom vården ställer högre krav på anhöriga då fler vårdas i hemmet. Därför behövs mer kunskap om anhörigas situation för att stärka familjehälsan. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att belysa hur anhöriga upplever sin situation i flyttprocessen före, under och efter flytten av en vårdbehövande familjemedlem till ett särskilt boende för äldre, vilket framkom vid hälsostödjande familjesamtal. Metod: Åtta familjer deltog i en samtalsserie av tre samtal. Samtalen analyserades med kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat: Huvudresultatet visade på att före flytten upplevdes livssit

Abstract:
The study problem was that sane individuals found institutionalizing a family member stressful, and family members required assistance in coping. The purposes of the study were to examine threat appraisal, degree of threat, and coping responses in a sample of family members of newly institutionalized elderly. The study was a descriptive correlational investigation which utilized Lazarus' theory of stress and coping as the theoretical framework.There were 21 questionnaires received from a convenience sample obtained through four nursing hens in the vicinity of a small city in Indiana.

Abstract:
Online social networking sites continue to grow as a medium of consumption, acting as a changing force for interpersonal communication and media interaction. It is important to understand how and why each demographic segment is using these sites. Facebook is the most popular social networking site in the U.S., with older adults representing a substantial portion of the site’s growth. Previous studies have investigated the use of Facebook among college students and young adults; however, older age demographics are a fairly new segment to the online social networking landscape that has not yet b

Abstract:
When elderly people are cared for In Aged Care Facilities (ACFs) it is known that their family members frequently suffer negative effects. These effects may be alleviated by social support and, because they feel better, family members may then offer more support to residents. In this study, the researcher tested a model with a sample of 213 family members of ACF residents. Predictive relationships were hypothesised among incentives for family members to support residents, stress related factors, the perceived formal and Informal support of family members, their psychological wellbeing, and the

Contends that poor discharge planning for elderly patients in American hospitals is the result of reduced lengths of stay which do not give medical social workers adequate time to assess patients' needs. A survey methodology was used to assess social service and community resource needs of hospitalized elderly patients and their family members at Riverside Community Hospital in California. Argues that the results of the survey can be used to improve discharge planning and lead to a more client-centered practice in hospitals.

Äldre personer påverkas ofta av sina anhörigas välbefinnande. Studier visar på att avsaknad av trygghet kan orsaka lidande både för den äldre och dennes anhöriga. Anhöriga känner sig ofta otrygga då deras närstående flyttar in på äldreboende, men trots det finns det begränsat med forskning om hur vårdpersonalen kan hjälpa de anhöriga att känna sig trygga med den nya situationen. Studiens syfte var att beskriva anhörigas upplevelser av trygghetsbehov när deras närstående bor på äldreboende. Studien hade en kvalitativ design med en induktiv ansats.
