Among 104,231 limited liability firms in Sweden with at least two employees during 1997- 2010, almost 10% did not hire new employees in any given 3-year period despite having high profits. Nearly half of these firms continued to have high or medium profits in the next threeyear period, but still no growth. Regression analysis indicates that these firms were not randomly distributed; rather they were small and young, did not belong to an enterprise group, and operated in local markets with high profit-opportunities. We conclude that it might be more beneficial to focus policy towards these firms instead of towards a few high-growth firms that, having just grown exponentially, may not be best positioned to grow further.

It is often challenging to create a new enrichment program for any animal. This is especially true with the additional challenge that I wanted to use only naturalistic enrichment, and I’m working with animals some of which are nocturnal. Even with a many hurdles, a little bit of enrichment can do a big difference and make a big difference in activity levels of the animals. Eskilstuna parkens zoo have a house called the MUSeum housing four kinds of rodents. Rodents are generally much more active at night and spend much of the day sleeping out of sight of the public. One of the goals of starting an enrichment program was to increase the animal’s activity throughout the day to provide an improved guest experience. Many of the guests would stop briefly at the exhibit only seeing the empty exhibit, unaware of that there were animals there. Before starting an enrichment program, I wanted to determine how the rodent was spending their time. By observing the animals’ behaviour for 15 minutes a day at various times throughout the day, for a total of 15 observations, I was able to construct an activity budget for their behaviour. The results obtained were, as expected, that the rodents spent a lot of time resting. By enrichment both with food and the temperature we were able to take the activity to another level, and several new behaviours were observed.

Bakgrund: Kroniska sår innefattas av bensår, fotsår, trycksår, diabetessår, sårskada, tumörer, reumatiska sår och vårdskador vid komplikationer efter kirurgiska ingrepp, som inte har läkt inom 6 veckor. Forskning visar att trots att förebyggande strategier används, utvecklas det sår som kräver behandling. I mötet med vården är en god omvårdnad och en god vårdrelation viktig. Bristen på dessa leder ofta till ett lidande som individen måste kämpa emot med copingstrategier. Syfte: Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att belysa personers erfarenhet av att leva med kroniska sår. Metod: En litteraturöversikt gjordes i denna studie med 15 vetenskapliga artiklar, som bestod av både kvantitativ och kvalitativ metod. Resultat: 3 huvudkategorier identifierades: begränsningar, lidande samt coping. Deltagarna ansåg att en brist på information samt begränsningar i vardagen påverkade individens sociala umgänge och fysiska aktivitet. Smärta, skam och rädsla ledde till depression. För att hantera detta använde individerna sig av familjen och stöd av vårdpersonalen Slutsats: Det framkom att individernas dagliga liv påverkades av det kroniska såret. Den konstanta smärtan orsakade sömnsvårigheter hos individen, vilket ytterligare försvårade hanteringen av smärtan och vardagen. Kontinuitet hos vårdpersonal och i behandlingen gav personerna en trygghet och en ökad förståelse för sitt tillstånd. Det belystes att det var viktigt att vårdpersonalen ser individen bakom såret, och inte bara lägger sitt fokus på sårläkningen och behandlingen.
