Abstract:
Pharmacy, particularly in the community setting, has been subject to significant changes over the last three decades. Running concurrently to these changes has been the development of the field of pharmacogenetics, or ‘personalised medicine’, which is likely to have significant impacts on hospital and community pharmacy practice. Despite this, little sociological research has been undertaken to map the contemporary pharmacy landscape into which pharmacogenetics may be integrated and the effects that pharmacogenetics may have on pharmacy. Through 38 semi-structured interviews with diverse pract

Abstract:
The thesis is about the social organisation of employment. This is analysed through an examination of women's professional careers, specifically in a single profession - that of pharmacy. Standard theories of women's employment place the social divisions of employment at the forefront of analysis, and this is particularly so in accounts of professional employment, where the highly structured nature of professional careers is the object of explanation. Nonetheless, such explanations are deficient in the way in which they locate gender in employment processes. It will be argued that the standard

This thesis uses the findings from a study of pharmacists and non-pharmacists to explore the concept of professional identity in pharmacy. Pharmacists are well-established as providers of healthcare in hospitals and community pharmacies and their position as dispensers of prescribed medicines, and advisors on medicines in general seem relatively secure, as does their clinical role in hospital and their extended role in community pharmacy. However, previous studies have suggested that there is still ambiguity over the identity of pharmacists. Government policy in particular can be oblique and t

The philosophy of pharmaceutical care, which defines a patient-centred approach to practice, has been embraced and upheld by national and international pharmaceutical organisations for two decades. However, pharmacists have been slow to change their practice and implement a pharmaceutical care approach.

Abstract:
The role of the community pharmacist has changed over the past two decades. The traditional specialist roles of pharmacists, such as compounding and preparation of medications, are now infrequent activities and the profession has moved to a more patient-centred focus. Furthermore, pharmaceutical care has been developed and adopted as a practice philosophy to add value and bring care for patients back into the profession. However, there is still much debate in academic and policy literature concerning the reluctance of community pharmacists to adopt and implement pharmaceutical care in practice

Abstract:
How are new scientific concepts of illnesses and disorder formed? The last fifty years have seen a dramatic increase in new diagnoses incorporated into medical manuals. The concept of the male menopause, or the andropause diagnosis, is suitable for studying how medical knowledge is produced, since it has alternated between being and not being part of the acknowledged medical knowledge since the beginning of the 19th century, when it was originally launched. After being rather unnoticed during the 20th century, the concept of the male menopause had a renaissance in the 1990s’. The andropause th

<p>Ongoing structural and financial changes in the health care sector have resulted in increased risks for ethical dilemmas and moral distress. It is purported that increased ethical competence will help staff manage ethical dilemmas and hence decrease moral distress. To enhance ethical competence several approaches may be used – theoretical education, and methods focusing on reflection and decision-making abilities.</p><p>Ethics rounds are a widespread systematic method hypothesized to improve ethical competence, nurture a reflective climate, and help in ethical decision-making.

Abstract:
This thesis investigates the emergence of a new specialisation within the profession of architecture, namely that of the architectural technologist. The main original contributions from the research concern a deep understanding of how that emergence has been realised, and a study of the implications for buildings in the longer term. Using the UK and Denmark as examples it finds that this profession has existed for a long time, but until recently without formal recognition. It also finds that the consequences of the lack of attention are potentially major, and it suggests why recognition came s

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Idag är det brist på operationssjuksjuksköterskor i Sverige, vilket har resulterat i att flera operationsavdelningar är förhindrade att bedriva full operationsverksamhet. Erfarna operationssjuksköterskor går i pension under de närmsta åren samtidigt som intresset att utbilda sig till operationssjuksköterska varit svagt. Bristen på behöriga operationssjuksköterskor kan förvärras om inte åtgärder görs, vilket kan få svåra konsekvenser som att antalet operationer måste reduceras ytterligare eller ställas in vilket skulle bidra till ett lidande för patienten samt en ökad arbetsbelastnin
