Hofstede constructed a culture dimension called Power Distance, measuring the inequality of Power. Germany and Sweden have relatively similar values according to his world-renowned research. But a series of interviews of Swedish entrepreneurs in Germany shows that these perceive a large difference in inequality of power in the two countries. This essay seeks to explain the difference between these subjective-qualitative experiences and the objective-quantitative data of Hofstedes Power Distance Index. We propose that a combination of differences in communication, exercise and visibility of power and formality influence the way Power Distance is perceived.

Bakgrund: Att få kunna vårdas och dö hemma i en familjär och välkänd miljö innebär för de allra flesta en känsla av trygghet. För många anhöriga är det självklart att leva nära den döende och ta ansvar för omvårdnaden. Ur ett systemteoretiskt perspektiv kan familjen liknas vid en mobil, vid obalans påverkas alla familjemedlemmar. Syftet med studien var att belysa patientens, anhörigas och sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av palliativ vård i hemmet för att få en ökad förståelse för sjuksköterskors roll i detta sammanhang. Metod: Litteraturstudie där tidigare forskning i ämnet undersökts och sammanställts.

SammanfattningBakgrund:  Det är vanligt förekommande att personer med psykisk ohälsa vårdas på somatiska avdelningar. I studier har det framkommit att de inte blir behandlade med respekt, att de känner sig ignorerade och att de får vänta längre än andra patienter på att få vård. Omvårdnadspersonal tror också ofta att de somatiska symtomen hos patienter med psykisk ohälsa bara är fantasier, eller att dessa symtom beror på den psykiska ohälsan. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att belysa vilka faktorer som påverkar hur omvårdnadspersonalen bemöter personer med psykisk ohälsa som vårdas inom somatisk vård.Metod: Metoden bestod av en litteraturstudie baserad på åtta artiklar vilka analyserades med textanalys.Resultat: Resultatet visar att det negativa bemötandet av patienter som vårdas inom somatisk vård kan beskrivas utifrån fyra olika teman; omvårdnadspersonalens självuppfattning, patientuppfattning, känslor hos omvårdnadspersonalen samt uppfattning av vårdmiljön                     Diskussion: Huvudfynden som diskuterades med utgångpunkt i begreppet värdighet var negativa attityder, utbildning och kommunikation. Omvårdnadspersonal har ofta negativa attityder gentemot patienter med psykisk ohälsa, och kommunikationen mellan omvårdnadspersonal och patienter är ofta bristfällig. Omvårdnadspersonal som arbetar inom somatisk vård behöver mer utbildning och träning för att kunna ge personer med psykisk ohälsa ett gott bemötande.
