Home Nursing in Europe

Home Nursing in Europe

The increase in the number and life expectancy of elderly people is a general trend across Europe. Each country responds differently to the increased demands for elderly care, due to differences in their socio-cultural, political, and historical backgrounds. This book describes patterns of caregiving to frail, elderly people in Denmark, France, the Netherlands, and Germany. For each country, characteristic features of professional and informal elderly care are described, specifically focusing on home nursing. Differences in home nursing in these four countries are described from a broad sociological and cultural perspective. These are related to differences between health-care professions and health-care sectors, structures, and ways of financing of health-care systems, the role of the family in caregiving to elderly people, and norms and values regarding health and illness. This volume provides insight into country-specific patterns of provision of care for vulnerable elderly people.

De helpende hand

Op verhalende wijze vertelt Eva Vriend de geschiedenis van de gezinsverzorging in Nederland, waarin decennialang honderdduizend Nederlandse vrouwen werkzaam waren, ook haar eigen moeder. In ‘De helpende hand’ vertelt Eva Vriend voor het eerst de geschiedenis van de vrouwen in de gezinsverzorging in Nederland, en over en de gezinnen waarvoor zij werkten. Ze maakten je huis schoon, kookten je eten en voedden je kinderen op. Decennialang was de gezinsverzorging het grootste zorgberoep van Nederland. Even onmisbaar als onzichtbaar. Op het hoogtepunt in de jaren tachtig van de vorig eeuw waren honderdduizend vrouwen erin werkzaam. En toch kennen maar weinigen het beroep nog. Onder het motto ‘Volksherstel door Gezinsherstel’ kreeg de gezinsverzorging na de Tweede Wereldoorlog vorm. Het vak dreef mee op de golven van de verzorgingsstaat. Toen die afbrokkelde, verdween ook de gezinsverzorging stilaan als basisvoorziening. Ook de moeder van Eva Vriend werkte op jonge leeftijd als gezinsverzorgster. Toen ze op haar 35e ziek werd, moest ze een beroep doen op het vak waarvoor ze zelf was opgeleid.

Häusliche Pflege in der Ukraine - Solidarität der Gesellschaft?

Die Gesundheitsversorgung stützt sich in der Ukraine vorwiegend auf stationäre Versorgungsformen. Pflege und Betreuungsdienste sind nicht Teil der Versorgungsstruktur. Zum Teil Aufgrund der unsicheren Lage des Landes und der fehlenden sozialen Absicherung – unter anderem gibt es keine gesetzliche Kranken- und Pflegeversicherung, die Rente beträgt durchschnittlich 110 Euro im Monat – werden immer mehr alte und pflegebedürftige Menschen zurückgelassen. Um die Lage bedürftigen Menschen zu verbessern und ihnen Unterstützung und Pflege zu Hause zu ermöglichen setzt sich Caritas International (CI) mit der Caritas Ukraine (CU) seit 1999 für die Entwicklung von modellhaften Hauskrankenpflegediensten ein. In der Dissertation beschäftigte sich die Autorin mit den Fragen: Wie steht es um die häusliche Pflege in der Ukraine und welchen Beitrag wurde von Caritas International zur Entwicklung einer Häuslichen Pflege in der Ukraine geleistet? Das Ziel der Dissertation war eine Evaluation der Umsetzung der Ziele von Caritas International.
