Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG Pflege-Report 2023: Versorgungsqualität von
Book SynopsisFragen der Versorgungsqualität gewinnen zunehmend an Bedeutung. Das gilt auch für die pflegerische Versorgung. Der Pflege-Report, der jährlich in Buchform und als Open-Access-Publikation erscheint, beleuchtet im Schwerpunkt 2023 die Versorgungsqualität von Langzeitgepflegten. Bereits im Jahr 2018 stand das Thema „Qualität in der Langzeitpflege“ im Fokus des Pflege-Reports. Viel ist seither geschehen: Die gesetzliche Qualitätssicherung in der Pflege wurde grundlegend reformiert, die Pandemie hat als „Brennglas“ insbesondere im Pflegeheim erhebliche Defizite aufgezeigt. Die Wirkungen unzureichender Personalausstattung, Qualifikation und interprofessioneller Zusammenarbeit treten immer deutlicher zutage. Diese Entwicklungen sind Anlass genug, die Themen Versorgungsqualität und Qualitätssicherung bei Langzeitgepflegten im Pflege-Report aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven zu beleuchten und aktuelle Entwicklungen einer kritischen Würdigung zu unterziehen.Zudem präsentiert der Pflege-Report empirische Analysen zur Pflegebedürftigkeit in Deutschland sowie zur Inanspruchnahme verschiedener Pflegeformen. Ein besonderer Fokus gilt der gesundheitlichen Versorgung in der ambulanten Pflege und im Pflegeheim.Table of ContentsUnter- und Fehlversorgung im Kontext Langzeitpflege.- Instrumente und Maßnahmen der Qualitätssicherung und -entwicklung.- Qualitätsentwicklung in informellen Pflegesettings.- Personal und Qualität in der Langzeitpflege.- Daten und Analysen.

NIAS Press Caring for Strangers: Filipino Medical Workers in Asia
Book SynopsisToday, the Philippines has become one of the largest exporters of medical workers in the world, with nursing in particular offering many the hope of a lucrative and stable career abroad. This timely volume narrates their stories in a multi-sited ethnography that follows aspiring migrants from Manila’s vibrant nursing schools to a different reality in Singapore’s multicultural hospitals and nursing homes, and back home to a Filipino village. In so doing, the book offers anthropological insights on the lives and expectations of Filipino medical workers who care for strangers in another Asian city and the everyday encounters, anxieties and boundaries they face. It locates their stories within wider debates on migration, labour, care, gender and citizenship, while contributing a new and distinctive perspective to the scholarship on labour migration in Asia.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Welcoming LGBT Residents
Book SynopsisWelcoming LGBT Residents is the first comprehensive guide to working with LGBT older adults in senior living settings. The LGBT older adult population represents one of the fastest-growing subpopulations within our aging society. Despite the increasing demand for LGBT-affirming services there is an absence of training books for care providers. This dual-purpose text is appropriate for training and as a guide to answer questions that may come up during daily tasks. It is based on the most recent research and includes stories and testimonials from LGBT older adults and providers in the field. Chapters include: LGBT-inclusive intake and conversations; Gender identity and expression; Memory care and LGBT people; Navigating family dynamics; Addressing conflict between residents; Staff opinTrade Review"Tim Johnston's book is a timely, grounded, and most importantly useful guide for how to make our services more open to LGBT seniors. It can serve as a reference text for leadership staff and also an accessible educational tool for students and staff. I would encourage anyone working with older adults, not only those working in senior living, to take a look and see what they can learn." — Paula Basta, Director of the Illinois Department of Aging and Former Chair of the LGBT Aging Issues Network of the American Society on Aging. "For far too long, LGBT older people have encountered bias, stigma, and discrimination across the senior living environment. In response to this profound problem, Tim Johnston has written a comprehensive and accessible resource for the entire eldercare workforce—one that acknowledges that many LGBT older people live at the intersection of multiple identities, and they, as much as anyone, deserve to have a place they can call ‘home.’" — Robert Espinoza, Vice President of Policy, PHI "Combining current research, best practices, and his own experiences training providers across the country, Dr. Johnston has created a road map for providers of services and supports to create safe and affirming environments where LGBTQ older adults can thrive. This comprehensive text is a valuable guide and resource for any provider looking to make their organization a place where older adults, their families and staff can be who they are, regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity." — Kevin Bradley, Associate Director of Online Learning, LeadingAge "With an extensive background in advocacy and training, the author has significant experience and working knowledge of the needs of older LGBT adults. The history of LGBT people includes discrimination, criminality, being considered deviant or mentally ill and subjected to inappropriate medical "therapies". This coupled with the dearth of research into the needs of older LGBT adults makes this publication most welcome. Raising awareness of the uniqueness of each person and alerting care providers to the fact that LGBT people are not a homogenous group can only be a positive contributor to the provision of ‘safer and more inclusive spaces." — Patricia MacGabhann BNS (Hons) HDip Gerontology MSc Science MHSc Specialist Nursing (National University of Ireland, Galway) Clinical and Operational Director, Nightingale Nursing Home. "This book presents significant insights into creating inclusive environments for older LGBT people. It will also enable professionals to respond appropriately to challenging situations in residential care homes." — Dr Ralf Lottmann, Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow at the University of Surrey, UK (Research Project: ‘Ageing & Diversity: LGBT* Housing and Long-term Care’).
