Redonner l’envie de manger aux personnes âgées en institution : impact de quatre facteurs environnementaux sur la prise alimentaire et le plaisir lié…
2012
Comme l’ont montré plusieurs travaux, l’entrée en Etablissement d’Hébergement pour Personnes Agées Dépendantes (EHPAD) s’accompagne d’une augmentation du risque de dénutrition (HAS, 2007 ; Sulmont-Rossé et al., 2012). Parmi les facteurs susceptibles d’affecter la prise alimentaire, il a été montré que l’environnement qui entoure le repas (de l’assiette à l’ambiance générale) contribuait fortement à l’appétit et à la prise alimentaire des résidents d’EHPAD (Nieuwenhuizen et al. 2009 ; Nijs et al. 2009). De fait, quatre études ont montré qu’une amélioration globale de l’environnement (changement de mobilier, décoration de la salle à manger, réorganisation du personnel…) pouvait entrainer une …

Family's role in long‐term care : A qualitative study of Finnish family members' experiences on supporting the functional ability of an older relative
2022
Family members are important providers of care for older people. In residential long-term care, however, their role is not always simple and straightforward: responsibility for care provision rests officially with staff members, but in practice family members often contribute to providing care. The main reason for admission to long-term care is functional decline. At the same time, the maintenance of functional ability is a central goal in long-term care. It is therefore reasonable to assume that functional ability is also an important factor in the relationship between family members and long-term care residents. This study aims to explore how family members experience their role in suppor…

"Lauletaan vaan yhdessä, pojat!" : musiikki ja identiteetti sotiemme veteraanien ryhmämusiikkiterapiassa - etnografis-narratiivinen tutkimus
2016
Studies concerning music and identity have shown that the music which an individual values as important tells stories about the subjective reality of the individual (Lehtonen & Niemelä 1997; Baker & Wigram 2004). Through the use of individualized meaningful music in music therapy, a possibility for raising and evaluating processes connected with identity can be created (Magee & Davidson 2004b). Even recent brain studies have shown these connections. When meaningful music is used activity is observed within deep parts of the brain, suggesting a connection between contextualized meaningful music and activity in the brain where the pleasure and the autobiographical memory centers exist (Buruna…
