Phenomenological perspectives on self-care in aging.
2013
Olle SöderhamnCenter for Caring Research- Southern Norway, Faculty of Health and Sport Sciences, University of Agder, Grimstad, NorwayAbstract: Self-care is a central concept in health care and may be considered as a means to maintain, restore, and improve one's health and well-being. When performed effectively, self-care contributes not only to human functioning but also to human structural integrity and human development (ie, to a dynamic and holistic state of health). Self-care as a clinical concept is relevant for health care professionals, and it should be meaningful to investigate it at a philosophical level and to further elaborate upon this concept. The aim of this …
Effects of a brief pre‑admission telephone reminder on no‑show and dropout rates in substance use disorder treatment: a quasi‑experimental study
2022
Abstract Background Appointment no-show and early dropout from treatment represent major challenges in outpatient substance use disorder treatment, adversely affecting clinical outcomes and health care productivity. In this quasi-experimental study, we examined how a brief reminder intervention for new patients before their first appointment affected treatment participation and retention. No-shows (not attending any sessions) and dropouts (discontinuation of initiated treatment because of three consecutively missed appointments) were compared between a period with pre-admission telephone calls (intervention) and a period without such reminders (non-intervention). Methods Participants were a…
Bruk av dyr i vitenskapelige eksperimenter : en filosofisk undersøkelse
2004
I dette arbeidet behandles filosofiske og etiske spørsmål som oppstår i forbindelse med bruk av dyr i vitenskapelige eksperimenter. Med vitenskapelige eksperimenter menes eksperimenter innenfor all slags medisinsk og veterinærmessig forskning og innenfor arbeid som tar sikte på å utvikle og prøve medikamenter. Det tenkes altså både på anvendt forskning og på grunnforskning. Forfatteren kommer ikke inn på bruk av dyr i kosmetikkindustrien, i matvareproduksjonen eller i kontrollen av matvarer. Det gås heller ikke inn på bruk av dyr som kjæledyr eller som følgedyr.

Master's thesis in Public health science (ME516) Background: The recommended procedure for achieving health promotion in Norwegian municipalities is a "Healt-in-All-Policies" approach. This is because the factors that affect the population's health also include areas outside the health sector. The municipalities are recommended to employ a public health coordinator to bring together the various parties in cross-sectoral public health work. Collaborative processes with several stakeholders in different sectors depend on a unifying key person to achieve acceptable cross-sectoral involvement, understanding and continuity. This is according to the "boundary spanner" theory and Kingdon's theory …

Master's thesis in Public health science (ME516) Background There’s been an increasing focus on the public health coordinators role in the local public health promotion since the public health law was passed in 2012, despite the increased focus there’s a lack of national surveys on who’s filling these position or how the role is executed. In this paper I am going to investigate which factors affects the communication patterns of the public health workers. Intersectoral cooperation is often highlighted as an important approach within public administration. The communication pattern of the public health coordinators might reveal something about their approach and it would be interesting to id…

Master's thesis in Public health science (ME516) In the process of planning the master project, we were several students who were interested in mapping the working and organizational conditions of the public health coordinators in the municipality. Therefore, we created the project: «Public health work in Norwegian municipalitiesr-2019» (FLINK-2019). The project has a quantitative approach in the form of a cross-sectional study, and the survey was sent to the public health coordinators in the municipalities. The purpose of this study is to map which area of public health has the highest political priority and which factors influence the political prioritization of this area. The study will …

Master's thesis in Public health science (ME516) Background: In 2012, the Public Health Act was introduced, with one of the foremost objectives of equalizing social inequalities in health. For this work to be efficient, it must be systematic. The systematic public health work starts with a thorough preparation of municipal challenges in the so-called "overview document". Through previous parliamentary reports, it is recommended that a public health coordinator should lead such a municipal public health work and at the same time establish a cross-sectoral approach to public health work. However, research has shown that this work is insufficient, which is linked to the coordinators' working a…
Practice-based learning and innovation in nursing homes
2020
Purpose This paper aims to investigate the conditions under which learning and innovation occur within nursing homes by focusing on how the dynamics of the distribution and transformation of ideas and knowledge may be viewed as a prerequisite for innovation in both formal, planned learning situations and informal, everyday practices. Design/methodology/approach Data was produced via fieldwork, which included participant observations, conversations and research interviews with staff and managers at a Norwegian nursing home. The paper is inspired by situated learning theories and communities of practice, as the social context emerges as the site where learning and innovation are cultivated. …

Videre forskerspørsmål som blir forsøkt besvart inkluderer: Hvordan defineres rollen og funksjonen til kreftkoordinatoren i offentlige dokumenter, utredninger og planer? Hvordan erfarer kreftkoordinatorene, og deres samarbeidspartnere rollen og funksjonen til kreftkoordinatoren? Hva slags legitimitet har kreftkoordinatorene opparbeidet seg, og hva slags innflytelse har disse koordinatorene fått i helsetjenesten? Overordnede dokumenter, utredninger, planer og forskere tildeler kreftkoordinatore…
