Sukupolvet ylittävä yhteistoiminta yksinäisyyden ehkäisyn keinona : Yhteispelillä kohti arjen hyvinvointia -hanke
Opinnäytetyömme tavoitteena oli selvittää, millaisia kokemuksia sosiaali- ja terveysalan ammattilaisilla oli sukupolvet ylittävästä toiminnasta. Tarkoituksena on siirtää tätä saamaamme tietoa opinnäytetyöstä eteenpäin tulevaisuuden hankkeille sekä sosiaali- ja terveysalan ammattilaisille. Tutkimuksen toteutimme laadullisena tutkimuksena ja aineiston keräsimme teemahaastattelun keinoin. Haastattelimme yhteensä kuutta sosiaali- ja terveysalan ammattilaista Lahden sekä Hollolan alueella. Nämä ammattilaiset tekevät yhteistyötä toimeksiantajamme Päijät-Hämeen sosiaali- ja terveysturva ry:n kanssa ja erityisesti heidän Yhteispelillä kohti arjen hyvinvointia
-hankeen kanssa.
Opinnäytetyömme teoriapohja koostuu seuraavista teemoista: ikääntyneen yksinäisyys ja sukupolvet ylittävä toiminta.
Tutkimuksemme tulokset osoittavat, että ikääntyneiden ja lasten välisille ylisukupolvisille yhteistoimintahetkille olisi tarvetta ja ne toisivat ikääntyneille helpotusta yksinäisyyteen. Tärkeää on kuitenkin huomioida lasten valmius tällaisia hetkiä suunnitellessa.The purpose of our thesis was to find out what kind of experiences the professionals in the social and health care sector have about cross-generation interactivity. Our goal was to transfer the information that we acquire during doing this thesis, to future projects and social and health care sectors professionals. The research is done in qualitative research and we collected the material through interviews. We interviewed a total of six social and health care professionals in Lahti and Hollola region. These professionals co-operate with our commissioner Päijät-Hämes Social and Health Security Association, and especially with “Kohti arjen hyvinvointia” -project.
The theoretical base of our thesis consist of the following themes: loneliness of elderly people and cross generational activity.
Results of our thesis and research show that there is need for cross generation activities between the elderly and the children. These activities would lower the elderly peoples feeling of loneliness. However, it is important to take into account children’s preparedness when planning such moments and activities
Ethical aspects in tissue research: thematic analysis of ethical statements to the research ethics committee
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Many studies have been published about ethics committees and the clarifications requested about the submitted applications. In Finland, ethics committees require a separate statement on ethical aspects of the research in applications to the ethics committee. However, little is known about how researchers consider the ethical aspects of their own studies.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>The data were collected from all the applications received by the official regional ethics committee in the Hospital District of Northern Savo during 2004–2009 (n = 688). These included a total of 56 studies involving research on tissue other than blood. The statements by the researchers about the ethics about their own research in these applications were analyzed by thematic content analysis under the following themes: recruitment, informed consent, risks and benefits, confidentiality and societal meaning.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>The researchers tended to describe recruitment and informed consent process very briefly. Usually these descriptions simply stated who the recruiter was and that written consent would be required. There was little information provided on the recruitment situation and on how the study recruiters would be informed. Although most of the studies were clinical, the possibility was hardly ever discussed that patients could fail to distinguish between care and research.</p> <p>Conclusion</p> <p>The written guidelines, available on the webpages of the ethics committee, do not seem to be enough to help researchers achieve this goal. In addition to detailed guidelines for researchers, investigators need to be taught to appreciate the ethical aspects in their own studies.</p
