Ambulanspersonal skall i sitt dagliga arbete lyfta och behandla patienter. I varje ambulans finns två ambulanssjukvårdare (kan även vara sjuksköterskor med eller utan specialistutbildningar) som har genomgått ett lyftprov som bekräftar att de på två man klarar att lyfta en patient som väger 90kg. Då en patient väger 150kg (gravt obes patient) eller mer blir det problematiskt, både ergonomiskt och medicintekniskt. Antalet överviktiga ökar, även de som räknas som gravt obesa. Syftet med denna uppsats vara att beskriva ambulanspersonalens erfarenheter då det gäller ambulanstransport av gravt obesa patienter.Enkäter besvarades anonymt av personal på en ambulansstation i södra Sverige.

Firewalls protect network traffic and decide witch traffic to send further and witch traffic will be blocked. All this depends on the rules in the firewall. The firewall is installed between the internal network and the Internet. It is difficult to find a firewall that can protect us against different threats. Firewalls have both advantages and disadvantages and all this make them vulnerable.

Studiens syfte var att undersöka hur olika trädgårdsrelaterade program inom kriminalvård kan vara utformade och hur dessa program påverkar de intagna. Studien är designad som en litteraturstudie kompletterad med intervjuer och erfarenhetsberättelser från intagna och personal på fängelser. I resultatet framkom att trädgårdsterapi och trädgårdsrelaterade aktiviteter inom kriminalvård kan vara utformade i rehabiliterande syfte, som yrkes- eller utbildningsinriktade program, arbete eller som alternativ till annan sysselsättning. Erfarenheter från personal och intagna samt forskning visar i denna studie att trädgårdsterapi och trädgårdsrelaterade aktiviteter inom kriminalvård kan gynna de intagna. Hälsoeffekter som framkom var bland annat bättre samarbetsförmåga, ökad socialisering och minskad stress.

While designing an intranet for people with mobile work there are things you have to consider. This thesis is aim to bring understanding to the difficulties involved in these kinds of situations. Our focus is to develop ideas that motivate the assistants to use the intranet. We have looked into the profession of personal assistants and wish to highlight their problems to access the intranet.

I vår uppsats skriver vi om anmälningsskyldigheten när det gäller barn som riskerar att fara illa, och den eventuella problematik som personal på förskolor kan känna när det gäller anmälningsförfarandet. Under utbildningens gång har vi både genom litteratur samt i möten med socialsekreterare, fått en uppfattning om att det från förskolor görs för få anmälningar när det gäller barn som riskerar att fara illa. Detta väckte hos oss ett intresse för att undersöka varför personal i förskolan inte anmäler så ofta men även att undersöka hur personalen hanterar skyldigheten att anmäla vid misstanke om att barn riskerar att fara illa. Vi är också nyfikna på att ta reda på vad utbildningen inom detta område tar upp när det gäller själva anmälningsskyldigheten vilket innebär att vi även undersöker hur det ser ut med kunskapen när det gäller lagen och annat relevant för anmälningsskyldigheten. Slutligen kommer vi även in på hur personalen i förskolan upplever samarbetet med socialtjänsten..

Agricultural drainage ditches are links between fields, lakes and oceans, having the potential to transport e.g. sediment and nutrients. When in a good condition, drainage ditches can act as sinks for e.g. phosphorus and sediments and prevent eutrophication downstream. The aim of this study was to determine the condition of one agricultural drainage ditch and to come up with suggestions for appropriate measures. The aim was also to determine which of the ditch?s properties that were possible to evaluate visually, which processes they represented as well as which properties required complementary physical analysis. This in order to contribute to the work of developing a method for determining the status/condition of agricultural drainage ditches.

The purpose of this thesis was to illustrate the use of internal marketing in the hotel industry. It was decided to conduct a case study on two hotels in the same region, Quality Hotell Statt and Pite Havsbad.

The study showed that the hotel industry work with internal marketing on daily basis to get low employee turnover rates, increased employee job satisfaction and high quality services.

The emphasize of this study is to evaluate security issues for home users having a personal computer connected to the Internet. It focus on the usage of advantages and disadvantages when using a firewall while connected to the Internet. The hypothesis is that it gives a better protection to install and use a firewall compared not to do so, due to security flaws in the operating system. The prediction was tested on a home user's personal computer. The testwork was divided into two major tests, each of them performed with, respectively without, a firewall. These major tests were divided into five smaller semi­ tests. The first semi­test without a firewall suffered from a virus or worm attack resulting in loss of data and log files.

Most people would agree that privacy is a civil right, and that we should not be deprived of this civil right for other than legitimate reasons. The difficulty lies instead in how to decide where the legislative boundary should be drawn for the right to privacy, in order to protect the individual from an undue intrusion of his privacy. There are a number of areas where the right to privacy comes in conflict with opposite interests. One of these areas is credit report. In this master thesis the author discusses questions as, what is the meaning of the word privacy, and whether the protection of privacy is sufficient in the legislation concerning credit report? Also a comparative study of the Swedish and the English regulation is performed.

In October 2010 it was discovered that leach water had been released from a waste deposit directly into a ditch during a period from March until October 2010. The river Dalhemsån runs close to the waste deposit, just about 10 meters from the ditch. By studying the benthic fauna it was discovered that the environmental status of Dalhemsån is bad in this part of the river, but the discharges of leachate from the waste deposit does not seem to have deteriorated the water further since May 2010..

The aim of this study is to gain an understanding of how dyslexic adults experience the library, their meeting with a librarian and how they feel they are being helped with finding literature. To answer the purpose of the study I have conducted six semi-structured interviews with dyslexic adults.. Two theoretical models were used as an analytical tool in this study. One was Michael Buckland's aspects of access to information. The other is four aspects that explains the significance of personal encounter at the library.

Under hela utbildningens gång har jag frågat mig varför studie- och yrkesvägledar programmet är så skolfokuserat och jag har förstått att så har det alltid varit. Men varför har det fortsatt att vara så när arbetsmarknaden kontinuerligt förändras. Genom åren har det öppnats andra möjligheter där vi kan utnyttja vår utbildning och det vi lärt oss på ett mycket bra sätt. Mitt syfte med detta examensarbete är att på ett så bra och realistiskt sätt som möjligt utreda hur arbetsmarknaden för studie- och yrkesvägledare ser ut inom bemanningsbranschen. Dessutom få fram på ett så tydligt sätt som möjligt hur personalen inom ett bemanningsföretag är profilerad.
