Kraven på hälso- och sjukvården ökar ständigt, inte minst på sjuksköterskorna där en evidensbaserad omvårdnad eftersträvas. För att evidensbaserad omvårdnad ska kunna bedrivas krävs att nya forskningsrön ständigt förs in och omsätts i sjuksköterskans vardagsarbete. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att beskriva vilka hinder och förutsättningar som finns för sjuksköterskor att införa och omsätta omvårdnadsforskning till praktiken. Relevant litteratur för studien söktes fram genom sökning i olika databaser. Litteraturstudien omfattar tolv artiklar som sammanställts och analyserats utifrån studiens syfte.

Arbetets struktur kan påverka individens hälsa i både positiv och negativ bemärkelse. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka den psykosociala arbetsmiljön på Ängdala Skolor. En kvantitativ metod har använts där 50 ut av 55 anställda som under våren 2009 arbetade på Ängdala Skolor har besvarat en validerad enkät. Resultatet analyserades utifrån Karaseks och Theorells krav-kontroll- stöd modell som teoretisk referensram tillsammans med teorier kring socialt stöd och stress på arbetsplatsen. Då populationen var liten har resultatet även till viss del jämförts med en tidigare studie inom samma område, utförd av Region Skåne.

Genom ett kvalitativt frågeformulär svarade 53 stycken anhöriga till soldater och officerare på hur deras behov av anhörigstöd såg ut under tiden för en internationell insats. Uppsatsens frågeställning handlar om det  anhörigstöd som Försvarsmakten och externa stödorganisationer har utarbetat och om detta går i linje med de behov som finns hos de anhöriga. Syftet med uppsatsen är att jämföra Försvarsmakten och stödorganisationernas utbud på anhörigstöd med den anhöriges faktiska behov och därmed svara på uppsatsens frågeställning. Syftet är vidare att utifrån resultatet även kunna ge förslag på eventuella förbättringar på dagens anhörigstöd. Genom att analysera rådata har ett resultat kunnat redovisas som visar en markant förbättring av anhörigstödet i förhållande till det missnöje som presenterades av Officersförbundet och Synovate år 2008.
