Bakgrund: Forskning visar att det i Sverige blir allt fler äldre människor; samtidigt är dagens sjukvård inte organiserad för att möta deras behov. Äldre har ofta ett stort behov av omvårdnad och det är viktigt att sjuksköterskan arbetar personfokuserat relaterat till detta. Det sker idag en åldersdiskriminering av äldre och sjuksköterskans personliga egenskaper, såsom hennes attityd och bemötande, kan påverka vårdens kvalitet och hur den äldre upplever sin hälsa. Där av tydliggörs vikten av en god vårdrelation, med respekt för individens autonomi, integritet och värdighet.Syfte: Syftet är att beskriva vilka faktorer som kan ha betydelse för sjuksköterskans bemötande av äldre.Metod: Litteraturstudie baserad på tio vetenskapliga artiklar. Litteratursökningen genomfördes under mars och april månad, år 2011, i de elektroniska databaserna CINAHL, Medline och Pubmed.

Death can be seen as a sensitive subject and can by that be difficult for many people to talk about. Working as a nurse can imply caring for severe ill and dying patients, which can be regarded as a task that makes great demands. The aim of the present literature review is to illustrate nurses' experiences of problems in association with the care of dying patients to be aware of these. Nine scientific articles were analysed and the result showed that the problems the nurses experienced could be related to four different categories: problems related to organisa-tion/resources, to the nurse herself, to the patient and to family members. The literature review also illustrates consequences of these problems for nurses, and which components that could simplify the nursing care of dying patients..

Bakgrund: Få studier har gjorts inom psykiatrisk omvårdnad med fokus på patientperspektivet. Detta perspektiv är dock viktigt då det ger en inblick i hur patienterna upplever den vård de erhåller. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva hur patienter på en psykiatrisk vårdavdelning upplever det bemötande de får av avdelningens sjuksköterskor. Metod: Semistrukturerade intervjuer som sedan analyserades med hjälp av kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat: Vid analys av materialet framkom fyra huvudkategorier som samlade de aspekter på bra och mindre bra bemötande som respondenterna beskrivit: Betydelsen av att bli sedd och bekräftad av personalen, Personalens agerande och attityder gentemot patienterna, Önskemål och förväntningar på personalen samt Hur icke-verbal kommunikation påverkar hur bemötandet upplevs.

Bröstcancer kan vara en omvälvande upplevelse samtidigt som det kan medföra obehagliga sjukhusbesök och läkarvård, som i ett ögonblick kan vända upp och ner på tillvaron. Under året 2007 fick 45 män en bröstcancerdiagnos i Sverige. Att möta en man som har fått diagnosen bröstcancer kan vara en väldigt speciell och ovanlig situation för vårdpersonalen eftersom diagnosen är relativt ovanlig. Detta kan resultera i att vårdpersonalen inte vet hur dem ska bemöta mannen i den aktuella vårdsituationen. För att förstå mannen som får bröstcancer måste hans upplevelser bejakas.
