En outre, s’y ajoute la question de la mobilite des patients, particulierement dans le contexte europeen. Les zones frontalieres concentrent les problematiques liees a l’acces aux soins : a seulement quelques kilom…

Questioning and advising in health counselling: results from a study of Finnish nurse counsellors

2000

The purpose of this study is to describe the main ways in which nurse coun sellors' questions and advice are initiated, received, accepted or refused during health counselling.

Photovoice—Towards Engaging and Empowering People with Intellectual Disabilities in Innovation

2020

E-health and welfare technology offer new ways to support health and social care delivery. While initiatives are made to engage disadvantaged user groups in innovation, people with intellectual disabilities tend to be excluded from design activities. This is a concern as this group can benefit from the use of assistive technology. However, it can be time-consuming and challenging to involve end-users in the design of technology. This calls for processes that are creative, empowering and that facilitate user involvement. In this study, we report and reflect on the process of using photovoice to understand user needs and to empower participants with intellectual disability in an innovation pr…
