Teaching-service integration: implications and roles in experiences of Undergraduate Courses in Nursing

The study aimed at understanding the implications of the teaching-service integration to nursing education from the perspective of teachers, students and professionals in Primary Healthcare as well as identifying the roles of teachers and professionals who follow practical experiences in education. This is a case study of qualitative approach carried out in five undergraduate courses in Nursing in the state of Santa Catarina. A total of 22 teachers and 14 professionals were interviewed and five focus groups were conducted with students. Results are presented in two categories: Implications of the teaching-service integration to education in Nursing: contributing factors and intervening factors and Relationships established in the experiences: a unison speech and a dissonant practice. The contributions of the teaching-service integration are undeniable. Despite this belief, there are intervening factors that need to be on the agenda for discussion. The role of facilitator in education emerged strongly despite conflicting perceptions remain.

Ecologies of Value in a Wall Street Trading Room

Our task in this paper is to analyze the organization of trading in the era of quantitative finance. To do so, we conduct an ethnography of arbitrage, the trading strategy that best exemplifies finance in the wake of the quantitative revolution. In contrast to value and momentum investing, we argue, arbitrage involves an art of association-the construction of equivalence (comparability) of properties across different assets. In place of essential or relational characteristics, the peculiar valuation that takes place in arbitrage is based on an operation that makes something the measure of something else-associating securities to each other. The process of recognizing opportunities and the practices of making novel associations are shaped by the specific socio-spatial and socio-technical configurations of the trading room. Calculation is distributed across persons and instruments as the trading room organizes interaction among diverse principles of valuation.

Qualitative and Hierarchical Analysis of Protective Factors against Illicit Use of Doping Substances in Athletes Calling a National Anti-Doping Phone-Help Service

Evidence of a sport-specific hierarchy of protective factors against doping would thus be a powerful aid in adapting information and prevention campaigns to target the characteristics of specific athlete groups, and especially those athletes most vulnerable for doping control. The contents of phone calls to a free and anonymous national anti-doping service called 'ecoute dopage' were analysed (192 bodybuilders, 124 cyclists and 44 footballers). The results showed that the protective factors that emerged from analysis could be categorised into two groups. The first comprised 'Health concerns', 'Respect for the law' and 'Doping controls from the environment' and the second comprised 'Doubts about the effectiveness of illicit products, 'Thinking skills' and 'Doubts about doctors'. The ranking of the factors for the cyclists differed from that of the other athletes. The ordering of factors was 1) respect for the law, 2) doping controls from the environment, 3) health concerns 4) doubts about doctors, and 5) doubts about the effectiveness illicit products. The results are analysed in terms of the ranking in each athlete group and the consequences on the athletes' experience and relationship to doping. Specific prevention campaigns are proposed to limit doping behaviour in general and for each sport.

Qualidade de Serviço numa unidade Hoteleira em São Vicente

A satisfação dos clientes é uma forma das empresas se manterem no mercado a partir da conquista dos seus parceiros comerciais, por isso o tema satisfação ganhou maior importância no contexto da administração de empresas. Dado o crescente fenómeno competitivo da indústria hoteleira, o objectivo deste estudo foi aumentar a compreensão das percepções sobre a qualidade do serviço de um hotel, da perspectiva dos seus consumidores. Além disso, este estudo também pretendeu explorar a relação entre a satisfação global e nove factores de qualidade num serviço sendo eles: “higiene e limpeza”, “decoração”, “conforto”, “funcionários”, “alimentação”, “animação”, “serviços de apoio”, “quarto”, e “relação qualidade/preço”. Esta pesquisa acedeu as percepções da qualidade do serviço no hotel através da aplicação de um questionário abrangendo uma amostra de 16 respondentes (hospedes que de livre vontade responderam ao questionário). Os dados recolhidos foram analisados em SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences). Verificamos os seguintes resultados: São o conforto (primeiro lugar), a higiene e limpeza (em segundo) e os serviços de apoio (em terceiro) que mais influenciam a satisfação global no hotel. Costumer’s satisfaction is one way for companies to keep in the market by the conquest of its trading partners; hence, the theme of satisfaction gained greater importance in the context of business administration lately. Given the increasing competitive phenomenon in the touristic industry, the aim of this study was to increase the comprehension of perceptions towards hotel service quality from the hotel customer’s perspective. Besides, this study also intended to explore the relationship between the overall satisfaction and nine service quality factors, namely: “cleanness”, “decoration”, “comfort”, “staff”, and “food/beverage”, “entertainment” “support services”, “rooms and “relation quality/price”. This research assessed the ‘perceptions of service quality’ by applying a questionnaire comprising a sample of 16 guests that responded it correctly. Data collected was analyzed using SPSS - (Statistical Package for Social Sciences). The results indicated the following: comfort (in the first place), cleanness (in the second) and support services (in the third) are the factors that most influence the overall satisfaction in a hotel.

La planification de sortie des personnes âgées hospitalisées dans un service de médecine

Contexte: la planification infirmière de sortie des personnes âgées est une composante importante des soins pour assurer une transition optimale entre l'hôpital et la maison. Beaucoup d'événements indésirables peuvent survenir après la sortie de l'hôpital. Dans une perspective de système de santé, les facteurs qui augmentent ce risque incluent un nombre croissant de patients âgés, l'augmentation de la complexité des soins nécessitant une meilleure coordination des soins après la sortie, ainsi qu'une augmentation de la pression financière. Objectif: évaluer si les interventions infirmières liées à la planification de sortie chez les personnes âgées et leurs proches aidants sont prédictives de leur perception d'être prêts pour le départ, du niveau d'anxiété du patient le jour de la sortie de l'hôpital et du nombre de recours non programmé aux services de santé durant les trente jours après la sortie. Méthode: le devis est prédictif corrélationnel avec un échantillon de convenance de 235 patients. Les patients âgés de 65 ans de quatre unités d'hôpitaux dans le canton de Vaud en Suisse ont été recrutés entre novembre 2011 et octobre 2012. Les types et les niveaux d'interventions infirmières ont été extraits des dossiers de soins et analysés selon les composantes du modèle de Naylor. La perception d'être prêt pour la sortie et l'anxiété ont été mesurées un jour avant la sortie en utilisant l'échelle de perception d'être prêt pour la sortie et l'échelle Hospital Anxiety and Depression. Un mois après la sortie, un entretien téléphonique a été mené pour évaluer le recours non programmé aux services de santé durant cette période. Des analyses descriptives et un modèle randomisé à deux niveaux ont été utilisés pour analyser les données. Résultats: peu de patients ont reçu une planification globale de sortie. L'intervention la plus fréquente était la coordination (M = 55,0/100). et la moins fréquente était la participation du patient à la planification de sortie (M = 16,1/100). Contrairement aux hypothèses formulées, les patients ayant bénéficié d'un plus grand nombre d'interventions infirmières de préparation à la sortie ont un niveau moins élevé de perception d'être prêt pour le départ (B = -0,3, p < 0,05, IC 95% [-0,57, -0,11]); le niveau d'anxiété n'est pas associé à la planification de sortie (r = -0,21, p <0,01) et la présence de troubles cognitifs est le seul facteur prédictif d'une réhospitalisation dans les 30 jours après la sortie de l'hôpital ( OR = 1,50, p = 0,04, IC 95% [1,02, 2,22]). Discussion: en se focalisant sur chaque intervention de la planification de sortie, cette étude permet une meilleure compréhension du processus de soins infirmiers actuellement en cours dans les hôpitaux vaudois. Elle met en lumière les lacunes entre les pratiques actuelles et celles de pratiques exemplaires donnant ainsi une orientation pour des changements dans la pratique clinique et des recherches ultérieures. - Background: Nursing discharge planning in elderly patients is an important component of care to ensure optimal transition from hospital to home. Many adverse events may occur after hospital discharge. From a health care system perspective, contributing factors that increase the risk of these adverse events include a growing number of elderly patients, increased complexity of care requiring better care coordination after discharge, as well as increased financial pressure. Aim: To investigate whether older medical inpatients who receive comprehensive discharge planning interventions a) feel more ready for hospital discharge, b) have reduced anxiety at the time of discharge, c) have lower health care utilization after discharge compared to those who receive less comprehensive interventions. Methods: Using a predictive correlational design, a convenience sample of 235 patients was recruited. Patients aged 65 and older from 4 units of hospitals in the canton of Vaud in Switzerland were enrolled between November 2011 and October 2012. Types and level of interventions were extracted from the medical charts and analyzed according to the components of Naylor's model. Discharge readiness and anxiety were measured one day before discharge using the Readiness for Hospital Discharge Scale and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression scale. A telephone interview was conducted one month after hospital discharge to asses unplanned health services utilization during this follow-up period. Descriptive analyses and a two- level random model were used for statistical analyses. Results: Few patients received comprehensive discharge planning interventions. The most frequent intervention was Coordination (M = 55,0/100) and the least common was Patient participation in the discharge planning (M = 16,1/100). Contrary to our hypotheses, patients who received more nursing discharge interventions were significantly less ready to go home (B = -0,3, p < 0,05, IC 95% [-0,57, -0,11]); their anxiety level was not associated with their readiness for hospital discharge (r = -0,21, p <0,01) and cognitive impairment was the only factor that predicted rehospitalization within 30 days after discharge ( OR = 1,50, p = 0,04, IC 95% [1,02, 2,22]). Discussion: By focusing on each component of the discharge planning, this study provides a greater and more detailed insight on the usual nursing process currently performed in medical inpatients units. Results identified several gaps between current and Best practices, providing guidance to changes in clinical practice and further research.

Pleasure-suffering indicators of nursing work in a hemodialysis nursing service

OBJECTIVE To measure the pleasure and suffering indicators at work and relate them to the socio-demographic and employment characteristics of the nursing staff in a hemodialysis center in southern Brazil. METHOD Quantitative research, with 46 workers. We used a self-completed form with demographic and labor data and the Pleasure and Suffering Indicators at Work Scale (PSIWS). We conducted a bivariate and correlation descriptive analysis with significance levels of 5% using the Epi-Info® and PredictiveAnalytics Software programs. RESULTS Freedom of Speech was considered critical; other factors were evaluated as satisfactory. The results revealed a possible association between sociodemographic characteristics and work, and pleasure and suffering indicators. There was a correlation between the factors evaluated. CONCLUSION Despite the satisfactory evaluation, suffering is present in the studied context, expressed mainly by a lack of Freedom of Speech, with the need for interventions to prevent injury to the health of workers.

La "guerre des talents" est-elle perdue d'avance? Attirer et fidéliser les salariés par les valeurs du service public

L'idée selon laquelle les organisations productives se trouvent en concurrence pour attirer à elles les meilleurs salariés est aujourd'hui très largement répandue, que ce soit parmi les dirigeants, dans la presse, ou même dans les manuels de management. Dès lors, la guerre des talents paraît inéluctable. C'est oublier toutefois que les salariés, qu'ils travaillent dans le secteur public ou privé par ailleurs, ne sont pas uniquement mus par des considérations utilitaristes, rationnelles et matérielles. Ils ne visent pas avant tout à vendre leurs talents, pour autant qu'ils soient conscients qu'ils en possèdent, mais plutôt à travailler dans un environnement organisationnel en accord avec les valeurs auxquelles ils croient et auxquelles ils sont attachés. Les aspects matériels du travail ont de l'importance, à n'en pas douter, mais les dimensions idéelles et valorielles ont souvent été sous-estimées dans la littérature scientifique contemporaine. Cet article a pour ambition de montrer que les valeurs doivent être réintroduites dans l'analyse des processus motivationnels des salariés. Grâce à la notion de « motivation à l'égard du service public » (MSP) nous montrons que les agents publics sont attachés à des missions, objectifs et valeurs qui définissent en partie leurs activités professionnelles. L'étude empirique se base sur un important échantillon d'agents publics municipaux et cantonaux suisses et analyse les antécédents et les résultats de la MSP. Les enseignements qui en découlent suggèrent que, si guerre des talents il doit y avoir, alors les valeurs compteront elles aussi.

Catholic Loyalism, Service and Careerism: Lewes Lewkenor's Quest for Favour

This article discusses one of Lewkenor's more obscure works, The Resolved Gentleman (1594 - STC 15139), in the context of Elizabethan court politics in the 1590s, with a particular emphasis on the author's own experience of dissent, exile to Catholic Spain in the 1580s and return to England in the early 1590s. A translation of Hernando de Acuña's El Caballero Determinado, itself a reworking of Olivier de la Marche's Chevalier Délibéré (1483), the Resolved Gentleman bends the conventions of medieval chivalric allegory to articulate Lewkenor's own experience of alienation and dissent in the specific context of the factionalism of the 1590s. Beneath Lewkenor's seemingly self-effacing, 'humanist' translation it is in fact possible to discern a complex set of criticisms of Elizabeth's court. The knight's 'wandering' and 'errance' thus becomes a complex, multivalent figure that reverberates with a number of autobiographical meanings: the knight's exile becomes in Lewkenor's hands a figure of his own forced exile to Catholic Spain, and the account of the knight's quest functions as an oblique allusion to his own efforts to make his way back to Elizabeth's court. More importantly, however, these 'personal' meanings acquire a wider, political valence in the context of the allegory, and the narrative as a whole thus becomes a subtle, perceptive but scathing criticism of the Elizabethan court in the 1590's and the 'contraction' of royal favour that resulted in particular in the exclusion of capable, experienced but Catholic counsellors like Lewkenor himself. Articulating the frustration of this younger generation of alienated but fundamentally loyalist Catholics, Lewkenor paints a picture of a failed quest for favour, where the questing knight is finally forced to retire from the active life and withdraw to a rustic hermitage that is not only incompatible with his own ideal of the vita activa, but also dangerously smacks of unregenerate, and potentially seditious Catholicism.
