Det är uppmuntrande och glädjande att studerande vid konstvetenskapliga institutioner har börjat intressera sig för industrimiljöer. Genom deras forskningsinsatser skapas helt ny och viktig kunskap som är av stor betydelse för flera fackområden utanför universiteten: för alla som idag är engagerade i arbetet med tekniska och industriella kulturminnen

A training course on interpersonal relationships using role play in a Master of Mental Health Care programme–The students' experiences

Objectives To study how Master Students of Mental Health Care experienced role play as an educational method that strengthened their relational competence. Design The study was qualitative with an exploratory descriptive design. Settings Relational competence training course during the Master of Mental Health Care programme Informants Master students in a Mental Health Care programme Methods Data from open-ended questions were analysed using qualitative content analysis based on Graneheim and Lundman. Results The following three categories were identified: A deeper understanding of self and others, Different positions and situations provide comprehensive understanding and Engagement strengthens relational competence. Conclusions The study demonstrated that extensive use of role play, in which the students took on the roles of patient, healthcare professional and observer, combined with theoretical preparations and reflections seemed to elicit some of the humanistic values and attitudes central for strengthening relational competence.acceptedVersio

Tverrprofesjonelle legemiddelgjennomganger i hjemmebaserte tjenester; en utfordring?

Bakgrunn: Legemiddelgjennomgang (LMG) er en systematisk gjennomgang av pasientens legemidler for å sikre hensiktsmessig bruk og forebygge pasientskader. Den skal baseres på en samstemt legemiddelliste av de legemidlene personen faktisk bruker. Hensikt: Å undersøke hvordan hjemmesykepleiere og farmasøyter opplever tverrprofesjonelle LMG og hvordan pasienten har vært involverte. Metode: Det ble gjennomført fire fokusgruppeintervjuer som besto av åtte hjemmesykepleiere og to farmasøyter. Vi benyttet kvalitativ beskrivende tematisk analyse. Resultat: Farmasøyter og sykepleiere pekte på tre sentrale områder i erfaringen med LMG; kvalitet i medikamentbehandling, sårbare pasienters medbestemmelse og mangelfull kunnskap om de involverte profesjonene. Utbytte av tiltakene etter LMG erfares som gode for pasienten. Særlig de skrøpelig eldre er mindre delaktige i LMG. Kvalitetsbrist blir avdekket både i kjennskap til pasientens medisiner og brist på en organisatorisk struktur for videre oppfølging av legemiddelrelaterte problemer som ble identifisert. Konklusjon: Legemiddelgjennomgang er en ny måte å arbeide sammen på og innebærer endringer i arbeidsmåter både individuelt og organisatorisk. Dypere innsikt og kunnskap om hverandres fag og oppgaver er en nødvendighet for å få til nye samarbeidsmåter på en god og effektiv måte

Usability and acceptability of technology for community-dwelling older adults with mild cognitive impairment and dementia: A systematic literature review

Background: The objective of this review was to obtain an overview of the technologies that have been explored with older adults with mild cognitive impairment and dementia (MCI/D), current knowledge on the usability and acceptability of such technologies, and how people with MCI/D and their family carers (FCs) were involved in these studies. Materials and methods: Primary studies published between 2007 and 2017 that explored the use of technologies for community-dwelling people with MCI/D were identified through five databases: MEDLINE, PsycINFO, Embase, AMED, and CINAHL. Twenty-nine out of 359 papers met the criteria for eligibility. We used the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool for quality assessment. Results: A wide range of technologies was presented in the 29 studies, sorted into four domains: 1) safe walking indoors and outdoors; 2) safe living; 3) independent living; and 4) entertainment and social communication. The current state of knowledge regarding usability and acceptability reveals that even if researchers are aware of these concepts and intend to measure usability and acceptability, they seem difficult to assess. Terms such as “user friendliness” and “acceptance” were used frequently. User participation in the 29 studies was high. Persons with MCI/D, FCs, and staff/other older adults were involved in focus groups, workshops, and interviews as part of the preimplementation process. Conclusion: Research regarding technologies to support people with MCI/D seems optimistic, and a wide range of technologies has been evaluated in homes with people with MCI/D and their FCs. A major finding was the importance of including people with MCI/D and their FCs in research, in order to learn about required design features to enhance usability and acceptability. Surprisingly, very few studies reported on the consequences of technology use with regard to quality of life, occupational performance, or human dignity
