Behovet av högkvalitativ vård i relation med begränsade resurser har lett till en utveckling av disciplinen hälsoekonomi, vars syfte är att uppnå en effektiv resursfördelning inom sjukvården. Då sjuksköterskan utgör en av sjukvårdens största resurser finns det forskning som visar att sjuksköterskor kan göra påverkan inom hälsoekonomi och uppmuntras samtidigt till en större ekonomisk medvetenhet. Syftet var att beskriva faktorer som kan ge hälsoekonomisk påverkan utifrån sjuksköterskans omvårdnadsåtgärder. En litteraturöversikt gjordes genom en systematisk sammanställning och analys av vetenskapliga artiklar. Resultatet visade att faktorer som patientcentrerat omvårdnadsarbete, patientsäker omvårdnad, bra samordning, personalsäkerhet i samband med omvårdnadsåtgärder samt eftersträvan av bra kompetens och kritiskt förhållningssätt, kan ge en hälsoekonomisk påverkan utifrån sjuksköterskans omvårdnadsåtgärder.

The personnel policy program for the employees in studied municipality includes guidelines for the working environment, saying that health promoting activities is offered to all employees.                              Objective: To investigate how these activities were used and how the staff perceived the activities offered. The aim was also to find out how well the information about current health promotion efforts reached the staff.Method: A qualitative approach was used in the form of interviews. The sample consisted of municipal employees from seven different work sites.  A total of 12 women aged 32-52 years participated. The interviews were recorded and a hermeneutic theory was used to interpret the results.Results: The results showed that most informants used some form of fitness activity. In most cases health care-time was used for anything from walking to organized workouts. The great barrier was lack of information and lack of trained and dedicated health motivators. In several cases, informants had no knowledge about what a health motivator is supposed to do. The informants own suggestions for health promotion interventions included stress management and foot care.Conclusion: The survey showed that respondents were poorly informed about which wellness activities the municipality offered. The result could also be interpreted as a communication gap between the local authority, health motivators and the employees.

Syfte: Syftet med studien var att beskriva effekten av motiverande samtal (MI) på livsstilsförändringar och kliniska värden hos patienter diagnostiserade med eller i riskzonen för, utveckling av hypertoni, typ 2-diabetes och/eller fetma samt att granska artiklarnas undersökningsgrupp utifrån aspekterna könsfördelning, antal deltagare, poweranalys och bortfall. Metod: Studien hade en deskriptiv design och baserades på 15 vetenskapliga RCT-studier. Resultat: Resultatet visade varierad effekt av MI på de olika utfallsmåtten, och studier där inga signifikanta effekter kunde påvisas var överrepresenterade. Kostvanor och HbA1c visade sig svårt att förbättra med MI, däremot visade MI signifikanta effekter på ökad förståelse hos patienterna, förbättrad egenvård och den upplevda egenförmågan, nöjdhet och minskning av oro. MI påvisade någon effekt i tio av 15 studier.

 Prostitution has been intensely debated in Sweden for nearly four decades. Two major investigations have so far been initiated by the government and numerous propositions have been put forward in the Swedish parliament resulting in the sexköpslag from 1999 that criminalizes purchase of sexual services. The law aims at punishing the buyer and protecting the women in prostitution, thus making it possible for women to be helped by various social interventions rather than punished. Swedish society has undergone major changes in these decades. Globalization, the internet and the membership in the EU have changed the Swedish society and influenced the discourse on prostitution.This paper has a twofold aim, on the one hand investigating if and how these changes have had an impact on the prostitution discourse in texts produced by the government and analyze how female and male sexuality in connection to prostitution is constructed.

The aim of this study was to describe and understand parents? perspectives in aid assessment for children according to The Swedish Act (1993:387) concerning Support and Service for Persons with Certain Functional Impairments (Lag 1993:387 om stöd och service till vissa funktionshindrade, LSS).

Four interviews were made with parents? of children who has interventions according to LSS (1993:387) and five interviews were made with LSS case workers. In our study we saw that parents? perspectives often is the largest amount of information that case workers take into account when assessing aid and as a case worker you listen to the parents perspectives to capture the child?s and the family?s needs. It also came clear that the parents? perspective is not only about the child?s needs, but also includes the parent?s own needs and their family?s needs. The parents in the study felt that they made the decision about the choice of aid and considered themselves as the one who decides the family?s requirements. It turned out that treatment and understanding from the case workers was important for gaining access to the best help and making parents feel listened to. Parental responsibility was of great importance for the assessment, and it often led to disagreement between parents and case workers. During the study, we saw that power existed in the relationship between case workers and parents, but that it could be moved and changed during the time of aid assessment..
