Bakgrund: Det r?der en global brist p? organ och trots att det utf?rs fler organdonationsoperationer, m?ter det inte antalet som ?r i behov av organ f?r sin ?verlevnad. F?r att en avliden m?nniska ska f? donera beh?ver individen avlida under s?rskilda omst?ndigheter, f?r att sedan genomg? en donationsprocess. En donationsoperation involverar m?nga professioner, inklusive perioperativa sjuksk?terskor. Tidigare forskning visar att medverkan kan ge uppkomst till existentiella fr?gor samt p?verka sjuksk?terskans attityd om donationsoperation.

Prisons are for many an unknown world, and few know about the prison culture which includes unwritten rules, power structures, interactions and relationships between inmates and correctional employees.While many think that Swedish prisons are too comfortable,inmates are facing extreme stress due to surveillance and detention, by depriving inmates their possibility to shape their own lives. When the inmates is deprived of control over their own life?s the penal system have great power to shape and to influence the inmates.The purpose of this paper is to investigate prisoners' experiences of treatment and exercise of power in prisons. Starting point is to examine what are the kinds of relationships between prison officers and inmates from a power perspective, if there is any difference between the closed and open prisons and how the inmates affected by the structures that exist.Based on my overall purpose, and with my informant´s stories which revealed a number of similar points, four main headings were developed; Mass media and society´s view, and unknown world, interaction between inmates and prison officers and consequences.Prison officers with the role as a contact persons as well and other staff which work close to the inmates play a significant role by supporting through motivational interviewing and can help the inmates to gain insight about their life situation and actions. My informant?s underlined that a good contact person can either help or discourage.Inmates who contributed with their experiences express that there is a big difference between open-and closed prisons.
