Det krevende spennet mellom arbeid, hjemmet og gamle hjelpetrengende foreldre En hermeneutisk studie om kvinners situasjon i skjæringspunktet mellom yrkesliv og dobbelt omsorgsansvar

The aim of this study is to describe how women experience the difficult balancing act of caring for old and frail parents, managing their professional careers and taking care of their own families. Life expectancy has increased in the western world since World War Two, leading to an increasing number of elderly, and elderly with health problems, in need of care and assistance. Additional, health care reforms reguire the elderly to continue to live in their own homes for as long as possible. Traditionally the daughters often end up with carrying the heaviest load of caring for their parents, with all emotional and physical strains entailed, these two facts creates an additional burden on top of t their regular responsibilities regarding family life and career. A qualitative approach was used which includes deep interweaves and hermeneutic analysis. Analyzing the present material we come up with seven sub-themes, and these seven sub-themes crystallized into three main themes: the moral obligations, the anguish and feelings and personal health.

The bodily presence of significant others: Intensive care patients' experiences in a situation of critical illness

This study is about intensive care patients and the bodily presence of significant others. The aim of the study is to inquire and understand the patients experience of the body in relation to their significant others during critical illness. Open, unstructured, in-depth interviews with six former intensive care patients provide the data for the study. The phenomenological–hermeneutical analysis points to a theme among ICU patients' experience of conflict between proximity and distance during the bodily presence of their relations. Patients experience different and conflicting forms of responses to the presence of their significant others. Patients experience significant positive confirmation but also negation through this presence. In the ICU situation, the reactions of significant others appear difficult to deal with, yet the physical presence is significant for establishing a sense of affinity. Patients seek to take some responsibility for themselves as well as for their relatives, and are met with a whole spectrum of reactions. Intensive care patients experience the need to be actively, physically present, which often creates sharp opposition between their personal needs and the needs of their significant others for active participation

Undervisning i kvalitative forskningsmetoder - utfordringer i videreutdanninger i helsefag

Hensikten med denne studien er å studere hvordan bruk av kvalitative forskningsmetoder kan skape faglig forståelse og innsikt hos studenter i helsefaglige videreutdanninger. Med utgangspunkt i en fenomenologiskhermeneutisk tilnærming og et sosiokulturelt perspektiv, blir det diskutert hvordan det kan etableres en læringssituasjon der undervisning i kvalitative forskningsmetoder kan knyttes til studentenes erfaringsverden. Det sentrale i diskusjonen er hvordan man kan skape forståelse og interesse for forskningsmetodenes betydning i kunnskapsutvikling og fagutøvelse. Diskusjonen omhandler læringsprosesser og sosiale konstruksjoner, taus kunnskap og verbalisering av minner, fra teoretisk innføring til praktisk anvendelse, samt reviewmetodikk som kommunikasjonsform. I diskusjonen benyttes empiriske funn fra et undervisningsprosjekt om kvalitative forskningsmetoder i en helsefaglig videreutdanning. De empiriske funnene benyttes som illustrasjoner i diskusjonen. Nøkkelord: Sosiokulturelt perspektiv, fenomenologisk-hermeneutikk, læring, forskningsmetoder, videreutdannin
