Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Aufrechterhaltung eines gesunden Lebensstils:
Book SynopsisMit einer nachhaltigen Lebensstilveränderung, die auf ausreichend Bewegung und ausgewogener Ernährung basiert, können viele chronische Krankheiten (Übergewicht, Bluthochdruck, Diabetes, metabolisches Syndrom) gelindert, geheilt oder deren Ausbruch verhindert werden. Betroffenen fällt es schwer, den Lebensstil dauerhaft umzustellen.Häufig sind Interventionsprogramme nicht auf eine nachhaltige Verhaltensänderung ausgerichtet und berücksichtigen die motivationalen Faktoren der Individuen zu wenig. Betroffene fallen daher nach einiger Zeit in alte Muster zurück. Das angewandte Forschungsprojekt „Nachhaltiger Lifestyle Change“, das in diesem Buch behandelt wird, beschäftigt sich mit der Frage, wie das „Dranbleiben“ an einem gesunden Lebensstil aus Sicht der Motivationspsychologie und der Dienstleistungsorientierung unterstützt werden kann.Dieses Fachbuch richtet sich an Personen im Gesundheitswesen und der Gesundheitsversorgung (Gesundheitspsychologinnen und -psychologen, Ärztinnen und Ärzte, Ernährungsberaterinnen und -berater, u.a.) wie auch der angewandten Forschung und erklärt, wie betroffene Personen beim "Dranbleiben" an einem gesunden Lebensstil unterstützt werden können. Über diese sogenannte Aufrechterhaltungsphase eines gesunden Lebensstils gibt es in der Forschung und Praxis Erkenntnislücken, die das vorliegende Buch schliesst: Welche Massnahmen unterstützen Betroffene erfolgreich bei einer nachhaltigen Lebensstiländerung? Welche Rolle spielt die Motivation sowie die Motivationsorientierung bei der Aufrechterhaltung eines gesunden Lebensstils? Wie sieht die Phase der Aufrechterhaltung aus und welche Customer Journey durchlaufen Betroffene? Welche Rolle spielen die Betroffenen selbst und die anderen Player im Gesundheitsökosystem bei einer langfristigen Lebensstiländerung? Konkrete Handlungsempfehlungen, die sich aus den Erkenntnissen ableiten lassen, werden praxisnah in einer Toolbox zusammengefasst.Table of ContentsTeil I: Einführung und Grundlagen.- 1.

Springer Verlag, Singapore Health and Wellbeing in Late Life: Perspectives and Narratives from India
Book SynopsisThis open access book takes a multidisciplinary approach to provide a holistic understanding of late old age, and situates the aged person within the context of family, caregivers, clinical and other institutions. All through the book, the author discusses preparedness for an aging individual as well as the society in the Indian context. The book highlights inevitable but mostly neglected health issues like depression, dementia, fall, and frailty and provides detailed analyses of solutions that are practicable in low resource settings. It also brings up intergenerational differences and harmony in the context of holistic care of older Indians. Alongside clinical perspectives, the book uses narratives of elderly patients to dwell on the myriad of problems and issues that constitute old age healthcare. Demonstrating cases that range from the most influential to the most underprivileged elderly in India, the book enlightens multiple caregivers—doctors, nurses, and professional caregivers as well as family members—about the dynamic approach required in dealing with complex issues related to late old age. The narratives make the book relatable and interesting to non-academic readers, with important lessons for gerontological and geriatric caregiving. It is also of use to older adults in preparing for active aging. Table of Contents1. Understanding Frailty: The Science and Beyond.- 2. Living with Failing Memory: From a Caregiver’s Perspective.- 3. Panorama of Cancer.- 4. Meaningful Engagement: An Option or Not.- 5. Constipation: Much more than a Symptom.- 6. Fall: A Geriatric Syndrome with Endless Agony.- 7.

Taylor & Francis Illuminating The Dark Side of Occupation
Book SynopsisThis innovative volume introduces Twinleyâs concept of âThe Dark Side of Occupationâ. Focused on less explored and under-addressed occupations, it is an idea which challenges traditional assumptions around the positive, beneficial, health-promoting relationship between occupation and health. Emphasising that peopleâs individual experiences of occupations are not always addressed and may not always be legal, socially acceptable, or conducive to good health, the book investigates how these experiences can be explored theoretically, in practice and research, and in curriculum content for those learning about occupation. Beginning with a discussion of some assumptions and misunderstandings that have been made about the concept, the substantive chapters present and analyse tangible examples of the conceptâs applicability. This ground-breaking and practice-changing text provides ideas for future research and highlights contemporary, internationally relevant issues and concerns, sucTable of Contents1.The Dark Side of Occupation: An introduction to the Naming, Creation, Intent, and Development of the Concept Section I Theorising the Dark Side of Occupation 2.The Dark Side of Occupation: Accumulating Insights from Occupational Science 3.The Dark Side of Occupation: An Historical Review of Occupational Therapy 4.The Whole of the Moon: How Our Occupational Lens Helps or Hinders Our Exploration of the Dark Side of Occupation 5.Ontological and Epistemological Considerations in Understanding Occupations in Extreme and/or Oppressive Contexts: "Doing Non Violent Resistance" in Palestine Section II Researching the Dark Side of Occupation 6.Homelessness and Occupation 7.Occupational Transition from Smoker to Non-Smoker: The Perceived Consequences in Women’s Lives 8.Self-Defeating Behaviour in an Individual with Borderline Personality Disorder from An Occupational Perspective 9.Exploring the Impact of Childhood Sexual Abuse Trauma in the Context of the Occupation of Work Section III Occupational Therapy Practice 10.Challenges for Occupational Therapists Working with Clients who Choose Illicit, Immoral or Health-Compromising Occupations 11.Substance Use and Recovery as Part of Daily Life: A Zimbabwean Perspective of Substance Use as an Occupation among Young Adults Living with HIV 12.The Dark Side of Occupation in an Eating Disorder Intensive Day Service 13.Occupational Engagement in Forensic Settings: Exploring the Occupational Experiences of Men Living within a Forensic Mental Health Unit 14.The Development of an Assessment which Provides a Practical Application of the Concept of the Dark Side of Occupation for Practitioners and Students Section IV Occupational Therapy Education 15.Occupational Therapy Sounds Too Nice: Reflections from a Recently Trained Occupational Therapist 16.The Dark Side of Studying at University 17.How the Dark Side of Occupation can be Instructed in a Course: Learning from Occupational Therapy 18.Not Everything is Rosy and Not Everyone Wants to Fix their Garden: An Australian Example of Integrating the Dark Side of Occupation into Curriculum for Final Year Students 19.The Value of Exploring the Dark Side of Occupation in Pre-Registration Occupational Therapy Education, Using Homelessness as a Case Study 20.The Dark Side of Occupation: A Conversation of our Evolution and our Future
