Steigende Anspruche der Kunden, zunehmende Konkurrenz und gesetzliche Anforderungen fordern Krankenhauser zu einem kontinuierlichen Streben nach bester Zufriedenheit der Kunden auf. Um die Qualitat der erbrachten Leistungen optimieren zu konnen, muss die Politik und Strategie von Krankenhausern auf die Erfullung der Kundenerwartungen und -anforderungen ausgerichtet sein. Dies betrifft in besonderer Weise Privatspitaler. Die hohe Anzahl unterschiedlicher medizinischer Fachgebiete und die daraus resultierende hohe Anzahl an Belegarzten mit individuellen Anspruchen und Erwartungen, stellen eine...

Human physiological and psychosocial behaviour essential to maintain life underpins Roper et al's activities of living model. Examples of these activities are breathing, eating, personal cleansing, learning, working, playing. Originating in Britain, the model stresses continual patient assessment, facilitation of the patient's normal activities of living and individualised care.

Das Ziel der vorliegenden Studie ist es, die Beweggrunde von pflegenden Angehorigen der Nichtinanspruchnahme von Tagespflegeeinrichtungen zu ergrunden und eventuell die bestehende Empirie inhaltlich anzureichern bzw. zu erganzen. Ausserdem sollen spezifische Unterstutzungsmoglichkeiten aufgezeigt werden, welche sich pflegende Angehorige wunschen, um das Angebot der Tagespflege zu verbessern und somit die Inanspruchnahme dieser Einrichtungen zu steigern."

The importance of recognising the knowledge and the needs of service users and engaging them more proactively within the care process is now widely acknowledged, but it is not always clear how this can come about.

This text begins by exploring the importance of engaging with the internal world of those living with various mental health problems and reflecting upon personal...

Im Zuge der Ausbildung zum diplomierten Gesundheits- und Krankenpfleger habe ich mich im Rahmen meiner Fachbereichsarbeit dem Thema Thromboseprophylaxe gewidmet. Hierbei sind die 6 Saulen - 5 davon pflegerischer und somit fur die gehobene Krankenpflegefachkraft eigenverantwortlicher Natur - ausschlaggebend. Die sechste Saule umfasst die arztlich verordnete medikamentose Therapie (meist Heparinisierung oder auch die so genannte "Thrombosespritze"). Zu Beginn wird auf die Faktoren zur Entstehung einer Thrombose naher eingegangen, anschlieend wird sich der Verhutung ebendieser gewidmet. Die...

In Mitteleuropa steigt die Lebenserwartung und damit die Zahl der alteren Menschen kontinuierlich. Bis zum Jahre 2030 werden voraussichtlich 23,6% der Gesamtbevolkerung Osterreichs alter als 65 Jahre sein. Die Zahl der alteren hilfe- und pflegebedurftigen Menschen wird demnach rapide zunehmen. Die Unterbringung dieser Personengruppe in stationaren Pflegeheimeinrichtungen wird die SozialhilfegeberInnen vor eine grosse Problematik stellen, denn die Pflegeheimkosten fur eine Unterbringung sind sehr hoch. Den betroffenen Personen muss eine Alternative zur Pflegeheimunterbringung geboten werden,...

La personne qui begaie a tendance a mettre a distance son vecu emotionnel (Ellis, 1992), il lui est difficile de gerer ses emotions. D'autres auteurs (Rustin et Kuhr, 1992) affirment que les troubles emotionnels de la personne qui begaie influencent les comportements de communication: ils sont un frein a l'acquisition des habiletes sociales. Notre etude s'est donc axee sur la prise en compte de l'aspect emotionnel du begaiement. Un travail sur cet aspect peut-il developper, d'une part, les competences emotionnelles (identification et expression), et d'autre part, les habiletes sociales ? Dans...

Deze uitgave is het resultaat van het driejarig onderzoeksproject 'Ontwikkeling van standaardverpleegplannen voor de praktijk van de psychiatrisch verpleegkundige'. Uit dit onderzoek, dat in het voorjaar van 1998 werd afgerond, blijkt onder meer dat er binnen het psychiatrisch werkveld behoefte bestaat aan een kennissysteem dat de verpleegkundige ondersteuning biedt bij het maken van verpleegplannen, in het kader van methodisch werken.
Dit boek is een leidraad bij het concreet vormgeven van het methodisch proces van verplegen. Het eerste deel beschrijft het ontwikkelingsproces, waarbij...

Today's nursing students spend little time on clinical placement in hospital wards, where previous generations learned most of their skills. This has led to concerns that newly qualified nurses are no longer being equipped with the necessary expertise to fulfil their professional role.

A number of different institutions in the UK have responded to this challenge. Bringing together some of their experiences, this book focuses on the central issues concerned with planning, implementing and evaluating clinical skills teaching and learning.

Analysis on the barriers to access services and retention in care demonstrated that the negative attitude of health care provider is one of the reasons explaining the poor service provided to sex workers at the partner health centre. Other motive for the high attrition rates is the existing weak referral system between the HAPP Drop-In-Centre and the partner health centre. A stronger referral system from the drop-in-centre to treatment services is needed. A strong bond should be developed between HAPP Drop-In-Centre and health centres that provide clinical treatment and ART. This is...

The health workforce must be able to cope with shifts in the pattern of causes of death and disease that are being seen worldwide--particularly with the rise in noncommunicable diseases (NCDs).

This report examines the status of the nurse workforce in the Eastern Caribbean, assessing how best to strengthen its capacity to respond to the growing burden of NCDs. The report is based on four Eastern Caribbean case studies conducted in Dominica,...
