Hoivan kertomuksia. Tarinamallit ikääntyneestä äidistään huolehtivien tytärten narratiiveissa
2015
Hyvinvointipolitiikassa puhutaan yhä enemmän ikääntyneen oikeudesta jäädä asumaan nykyiseen kotiinsa ja saada sinne tarvitsemansa palvelut. Tämä artikkeli tarkastelee narratiivisen analyysin keinoin, miten huolenpidon kokemus jäsentyy äidistään huolehtivien tytärten hoivakertomuksissa yhä vahvemmin kodissa annettavaan epäviralliseen hoivaan tukeutuvassa yhteiskunnassa.

Kulttuurisista malleista vahvin on hyvän tyttären tarinamalli, joka jäsentää tyttären omaa osallisuut…
Private health insurance in the universal public healthcare system: The role of healthcare provision in Finland
2023

We found that the sociodemographic characteristics explained the VPHI take-up more than public or private healthcare provision. The VPHI take-up was negatively associated with distance to the nearest private clinic, while the associations with distance to public health stations were stat…

There are 11 million family caregivers in France and some estimates indicate that there will be 17 million in 2020.Caregiving is a source of chronic stress that requires adaptation and coping strategies.Caregiving may benefit the health of a caregiver with a positive coping style and altruistic goals.However, the caregiver's burden is frequently associated with negative effects in terms of biopsychosocial imbalance and medical conditions, with frequent anxiety and depression.The management of the caregiving burden starts with the recognition of health professionals – caregivers may benefit from consultation-liaison psychiatry and multidisciplinary medico-social strategies, in addition to co…
