ABSTRACT The persons whom the authorized nurse encounters in hospital wards and nursing homes are in great extent elderly persons. According to Wasserman (2000), about 30 to 40 percent among these, show signs of depression. To be aware of the signs of depression, and how an authorized nurse can support the patient is therefore of great value. The introduction to this study describes the symptoms of depression and how depression in elders is expressed. It also describes treatment possibilities and nursing aspects of concern.

Inledning: Allt fler utbildar sig inom restaurangbranschen samtidigt som branschen präglas av dålig lönsamhet. Flera tidigare studier visar dock att utbildad personal kan leda till ökad lönsamhet. Genom att anställa en utbildad sommelier och genom att utbilda personalen i matsalen i produktkunskap, serveringsteknik och försäljningsteknik bör vinförsäljningen öka på restaurangen.Syfte: Att kartlägga svenska restaurangers användande av sommelierer och utbildning av matsalspersonalen. Studien syftar också till att identifiera restauratörers attityd mot utbildning samt presentera praktiska riktlinjer för utbildning av personal.Metod: Strukturerade telefonintervjuer genomfördes med restauratörer som tilldelats God klass i White Guide. Trettiotvå restauranger valdes utifrån ett stratifierat slumpmässigt urval.Resultat: Svenska restauranger har i genomsnitt 50 procent utbildad personal i matsalen.

The physical environment is constructed of materials. The materiality of different places contributes to how places can be distinguished and the material can contribute to the construction of place identity. For architects with different orientations the material is one of the principal means by which they can express their idea. The material remains when the design process is finished and instead the material becomes a precondition for how people will perceive and deal with the place. The literature study of the essay examines how the concept of place and materiality is dealt with in different disciplines and how these descriptions are linked to the concept of place identity.

Ett bra introduktionsprogram är grundläggande för en lång framgångsrik karriär och gör det lättare för den nyexaminerade att lära sig, då övergången från studier till att börja arbeta som en legitimerad röntgensjuksköterska kan vara en stressig period.Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka nyexaminerade röntgensjuksköterskors upplevelse av introduktionen på en ny arbetsplats. Data samlades in till denna studie genom att intervjua nio röntgensjuksköterskor som tagit examen sommaren 2014. Dessa röntgensjuksköterskor arbetar på röntgenkliniker i mellan- och södra Sverige.All insamlad data analyserades med hjälp av innehållsanalys och det resulterade i tre kategorier: Introduktionsprogrammet, Handledarnas kunskap och egenskaper och Sociala relationers betydelse och påverkan.De nyexaminerade röntgensjuksköterskorna upplevde att introduktionen var tillräcklig och bra. Det fanns vissa delar som var mindre bra, till exempel att de blev räknade som en av den ordinarie personalen medan de hade introduktion. Alla informanter ansåg att det blir bäst ifall de har en specifik handledare i början av introduktionen, då det lätt kan bli förvirrande med flera handledare..

År 2006 levde globalt 18 miljoner människor med Alzheimers sjukdom och på grund av den ökade medellivslängden kommer den siffran om 15 år nästintill ha fördubblats. Trots att sjukdomen har varit känd i över 100 år, är Alzheimer än idag något av ett mysterium för forskare och vetenskapsmän och sjukdomen går fortfarande inte att bota. Såväl i Sverige som i övriga världen är det de anhöriga som utgör navet i omsorgen av dessa patienter och omvårdnaden sker ofta inom hemmets fyra väggar. Syftet med den här studien var att undersöka hur anhörigas dagliga liv påverkas av att vårda en person med Alzheimers sjukdom i hemmet. En litteraturstudie baserad på kvalitativa samt kvantitativa artiklar genomfördes.

The purpose of this study is to generate a greater understanding of the different ways in which music can be used to build an identity and create image within movies, and also to explain the different impacts this can have on the parties involved. Through the history of movies music has been used as a tool for enhancement and for expression of emotions. Through music the audience relates to personal memories or emotional states and the experience is given a deeper impact, helping to create memorable movie scenes. Certain directors have created a unique identity through the use of music in their movies, and also artists have been brought forward by starring in a soundtrack. What we find interesting, and what is also the discussion in this study, is in what ways this collaboration/artistic expression can be done and what impact it has on the parties involved.

Att arbeta som landskapsarkitekt innebär att möta många olika människor med olika önskemål och krav. Det innebär att arbeta problemlösningsbaserat, platsorienterat, och som detta arbete vill belysa, med en medveten kommunikativ inställning gentemot alla de olika aktörer som man samverkar med. Jag menar att det goda resultatet i stadsutvecklings- och stadsbyggnadsprocesser ligger i den dialog och det gemensamma lärande som uppstår vid en positiv samverkan mellan alla involverade aktörer. Fokus ligger på det gemensamma arbetet och en god samverkansprocess på väg fram till målet, snarare än på själva målet.Syftet med detta examensarbete är att belysa, undersöka, samt främja ett fortsatt arbete med och en ökad medvetenhet om, kommunikationens betydelse, tillämpning och resultatpåverkan inom landskapsarkitekturen. Den typ av kommunikation som främst behandlas i detta arbete är den som kan kategoriseras kring det fysiska mötet.

Abortion remains a contentious issue, which greatly raises ethical problems. This thesis examines the leading arguments in the Swedish abortion debate around the ? in terms of legislation ? critical years of 1938 and 1974. With Foucault's genealogical method, Butler's theories of gender as a social construction in relation to power and doxa, the study examines what the development of the argumentation says about the views on morality, the woman's body, life, individual and state? How has the arguments pro and against abortion changed over time and what does this say about the norms that guide and orientate the arguments? The most obvious change in argumentation is seen in the shift from an absolute moral and conservative position into an increasingly relativistic and liberal position, and this study will argue that this shift has its prerequisites in the changing status of the citizen and state.

The purpose of my study was to explore how preschool educators in Kenya look at children's influence on teaching. Researchers have argued that the formal educational system in Kenya today is a remnant of its days as a colony when people were expected to blindly follow rules without questioning them. I have used qualitative interviews as a method in order get the most concrete understanding of educators? views on the influence from children. The educators I interviewed were based at a school I visited in Kenya.

Background: Mental illness is a growing public health problem which can cause significant disabilities and lead to poor quality of life. As primary care nurses often are the first to encounter these patients they need knowledge to be able to respond appropriately to this group.Aim: The aim was to describe how the sufferer of mental illness experiences the introduction to primary care. Method: The literature review was based on the results of 11 scientific articles which were analyzed with the inspiration of a metasynthesis method.Results: Four categories emerged: the experience of being treated like a human being, the importance of a therapeutic space, the experience of time and availability as well as the importance of competent personnel and the importance of continuity. Patients described different aspects deemed important when encountering nursing staff. Conclusion: Patients experienced that they received good care when they felt listened to and seen as individuals with their own thoughts and feelings.
