How to deal with context? A context-mapping tool for quality and safety in nursing homes and homecare (SAFE-LEAD Context)
2019
Abstract Objective The objective of this paper is to develop a context-mapping tool (SAFE-LEAD Context) adapted to the nursing home and homecare setting. These two contexts represent a substantial variability, but studies focusing on the types and roles of contextual factors in quality and safety in these care settings are lacking. Results We conducted a step-wise collaborative design process consisting of mapping of key contextual factors as perceived by managers in Norwegian nursing homes and homecare, then created a draft tool discussed in a consortium workshop with co-researchers, and ran an international cross-country comparison. The SAFE-LEAD Context tool is inspired by the Consolidat…
Nutritional screening of older home-dwelling Norwegians: a comparison between two instruments.
2012
Ulrika Söderhamn, Bjørg Dale, Kari Sundsli, Olle SöderhamnCentre for Caring Research-Southern Norway, Faculty of Health and Sport Sciences, University of Agder, Grimstad, NorwayBackground: It is important to obtain knowledge about the prevalence of nutritional risk and associated factors among older home-dwelling people in order to be able to meet nutritional challenges in this group in the future and to plan appropriate interventions. The aim of this survey was to investigate the prevalence of home-dwelling older people at nutritional risk and to identify associated factors using two different nutritional screening instruments as self-report instruments.Methods…

Nutrition is a central aspect of se…
Tools to identify nutritional risk for older people in the home
2012
Author's version of an article in the journal: British Journal of Community Nursing. Community nurses are in an ideal position to identify older home-dwelling people at nutritional risk and thereby to prevent undernutrition. The aim of this paper is to present some nutritional screening instruments for older home-dwelling people and to discuss nutritional issues of importance for community nurses in order to assess nutritional risk and prevent undernutrition. The screening instruments Nutritional Form For the Elderly (NUFFE) and Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) are especially developed for screening older people. The Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST) is recommended for screening…
Psychometric testing of the Norwegian version of the Nutritional Form For the Elderly among older home-dwelling people
2012
Ulrika Söderhamn, Bjørg Dale, Kari Sundsli, Solveig T Tomstad, Olle SöderhamnCenter for Caring Research, Southern Norway, Faculty of Health and Sport Sciences, University of Agder, Grimstad, NorwayBackground: Nutritional screening instruments need to be evaluated in terms of reliability and validity and being able to demonstrate sensitivity and specificity for use in clinical practice and research. The aims of this study were to test the reliability and validity of the Norwegian version of the Nutritional Form For the Elderly (NUFFE-NO) in a sample of older home-dwelling people, and to use the short form of the Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA-SF) as a standard.…
Hva, hvem og hvordan? : håndbok i helse-, miljø- og sikkerhetsarbeid
2003
Alt som skjer innenfor en virksomhet skal tilfredsstille lovfestede og forskriftsmessige krav til tilsattes helse, miljø og sikkerhet (HMS). Dette er et viktig satsningsområde innenfor norsk arbeidsliv, og det er regulert av arbeidsmiljøloven med tilhørende forskrift om internkontroll. Imidlertid er det et langt stykke vei å gå fra bestemmelser i lov og forskrift til et funskjonelt og realistisk HMS-opplegg i den enkelte virksomhet. Denne boken er en slags "loggbok" for eget arbeid og egen bevisstgjøring gjennom de siste 6- 7 års arbeid innen HMS-sektoren ved Høgskolen i Agder.
SCADA Intrusion Detection System Test Framework
2017
Master's thesis Information- and communication technology IKT590 - University of Agder 2017 Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems play an important role in our critical infrastructure (CI). Several of the protocols used in SCADA communication are old and lack of security mechanisms. This master thesis presents a SCADA Intrusion Detection System Test Framework that can be used to simulate SCADA traffic and detect malicious network activity. The framework uses a signature-based approach and utilize two different IDS engines, Suricata and Snort. The IDS engines include rule-sets for the IEC 60870-5-104, DNP3 and Modbus protocols. The IDS engines ships detected events to a di…
SIP based IP-telephony network security analysis
2004
Masteroppgave i informasjons- og kommunikasjonsteknologi 2004 - Høgskolen i Agder, Grimstad This thesis evaluates the SIP Protocol implementation used in the Voice over IP (VoIP) solution at the fibre/DSL network of Èlla Kommunikasjon AS. The evaluation focuses on security in the telephony service, and is performed from the perspective of an attacker trying to find weaknesses in the network. For each type of attempt by the malicious attacker, we examined the security level and possible solutions to flaws in the system. The conclusion of this analysis is that the VoIP service is exploitable, and that serious improvements are needed to achieve a satisfying level of security for the system.
Security in GPRS
2001
Masteroppgave i informasjons- og kommunikasjonsteknologi 2001 - Høgskolen i Agder, Grimstad GPRS offers the user an “always on” connection to Internet and Intranet. Some of the services may require high level of security. This can be financial transaction over the Internet, or exchange of confidential documents from a company’s Intranet to an employee. It is important to have strong focus on the security, so companies and persons that demand high level of security can take advantage of the services GPRS offered. What normally happens is that the services wins against the security. This is in most cases adequate security for what a normal subscriber requires. This thesis covers which securit…
