Pflege kommt aus einer Tradition, in der sich hauptsächlich Frauen selbstlos um Pflegebedürftige kümmerten, ohne dass die üblichen Regelungen beruflicher Arbeit galten. Heute ist Pflegetätigkeit oft durch problematische Arbeitsbedingungen und fehlende Wertschätzung gekennzeichnet. Der Band weist auf, dass dieses Defizit an Anerkennung sich insbesondere auf die "unsichtbaren" Bestandteile der Pflege bezieht, die zum Kern einer menschenwürdigen fürsorglichen Praxis gehören. Die Autorinnen analysieren die dahinterstehenden gesellschaftlichen, institutionellen und rechtlichen Rahmenbedingungen in der Pflege. Es geht in der qualitativen Studie aber auch um die Erfahrungen weiblicher und männlicher Pflegekräfte und Pflegeexperten in diakonischen Einrichtungen und um die Zukunftsfähigkeit häuslicher Pflegearrangements. Die empirische Erhebung bezog sich auf die von Pflegekräften erlebte - und gewünschte - Situation in Akutkrankenhäusern, in der ambulanten Pflege und in Altenpflegeheimen diakonischer Einrichtungen in verschiedenen Orten - darunter Kassel, Hannover, Berlin. Bei der Endauswertung für die Studie wurden 65 Interviews und 10 Beobachtungsprotokolle berücksichtigt.
Der Reisemarkt ist komplex, diversifiziert und schnelllebig: Viele Deutsche planen ihren Urlaub heutzutage eher kurzfristig, und sie suchen Alternativen zur gewohnten Reise zu Sonne, Strand und Meer. Die Anzahl der Reiseveranstalter und Spezialanbieter ist kaum mehr zu beziffern. Ständig erscheinen neue Trends und innovative Produkte. Das Internet stellt das traditionelle Geschäftsmodell der Reiseveranstalter auf den Kopf. Doch wie können Unternehmen Transparenz in einen komplexen Markt bringen und dessen Potenziale für das Management schlussendlich greifbar machen?

Continuity of care is a concept that is defined as the uninterrupted and coordinated care provided to a patient and that includes an informational dimension which describes the information exchange between the parties involved. In nursing, the nursing summary is the main instrument to ensure informational continuity of care. The aim of this paper is to present an HL7 Clinical Document Architecture based document standard for the eNursing Summary and to discuss the need for harmonizing these results at international level. The eNursing Summary proposed in this paper was developed on the basis of several internationally accepted concepts, primarily the nursing process, the ISO 18104 Reference Terminology Model for Nursing and various data sets. The standardisation process embraced several phases of involving nursing experts for validating its structure and content. It was finally evaluated by a network of 100 healthcare organizations. We argue that the eNursing Summary is a good starting point for standardising nursing discharge and transfer documents on a global level. However, further work is needed to bring together the different national and international strands in standardisation.
During recent decades, many studies have shown that the successful restoration of species-rich grasslands is often seed-limited because of depleted seed banks and limited seed dispersal in modern fragmented landscapes. In Europe, commercial seed mixtures, which are widely used for restoration measures, mostly consist of species and varieties of non-local provenance. The regional biodiversity of a given landscape, however, can be preserved only when seeds or plants of local provenance are used in restoration projects. Furthermore, the transfer of suitable target species of local provenance can strongly enhance restoration success.
We review and evaluate the success of currently used near-natural methods for the introduction of target plant species (e.g. seeding of site-specific seed mixtures, transfer of fresh seed-containing hay, vacuum harvesting, transfer of turves or seed-containing soil) on restoration sites, ranging from dry and mesic meadows to floodplain grasslands and fens. Own data combined with literature findings show species establishment rates during the initial phase as well as the persistence of target species during long-term vegetation development on restoration sites.
In conclusion, our review indicates that seed limitation can be overcome successfully by most of the reviewed measures for species introduction. The establishment of species-rich grasslands is most successful when seeds, seed-containing plant material or soil are spread on bare soil of ex-arable fields after tilling or topsoil removal, or on raw soils, e.g. in mined areas. In species-poor grasslands without soil disturbance and on older ex-arable fields with dense weed vegetation, final transfer rates were the lowest. For future restoration projects, suitable measures have to be chosen carefully from case to case as they differ considerably in costs and logistic effort. Long-term prospects for restored grassland are especially good when management can be incorporated in agricultural systems.
Purpose
The purpose of this paper is to provide a deeper understanding of how transformational leadership relates to followers' innovation implementation behavior, the psychological mechanisms of this relationship, and the role of individual perceptions of climate for initiative.
Design/methodology/approach
Perceptual data were collected from 198 employees in lower and middle management positions of a multinational automotive corporation. Relationships were tested using hierarchical regression analysis.
Findings
Results demonstrate that transformational leadership was strongly related to followers' innovation implementation behavior and that the nature of this relationship was moderated by followers' levels of perceived climate for initiative. Additionally, commitment to change fully mediated the relationship between transformational leadership and followers' innovation implementation behavior.
Research limitations/implications
The paper is based on a cross‐sectional design. A causal interpretation requires studies with experimental or longitudinal designs.
Practical implications
Companies should invest in transformational leadership training and in the selection of supervisors with this leadership style before initiating the implementation of innovations. Enhancing contextual factors, such as a perceived climate for initiative, should be promoted by integrating them into organizations' reward systems.
Originality/value
The paper is one of the first to investigate the relationship between transformational leadership and followers' innovation implementation behavior. It specifies the organizational contexts under which transformational leadership is most likely related to innovation implementation behavior, and those in which such a relationship is unlikely to occur.
Das Thema Kinderschutz steht seit einigen Jahren im Mittelpunkt des sozial- und fachpolitischen Interesses. Ausgangspunkt der Diskussion um die Leistungsfähigkeit der fachlichen Unterstützungssysteme waren vor allem veröffentlichte Daten zu Fällen von Kindesmisshandlung und -vernachlässigung sowie gestiegene Inanspruchnahme- und Interventionsdaten der Jugendhilfe. Obwohl die Aussagekraft dieser Zahlen hinsichtlich der Ätiologie und Genese von Gewaltphänomenen sehr begrenzt ist, hat die begleitende Diskussion für einen bislang unvergleichlichen sozialpolitischen Handlungsdruck gesorgt. Beispielhaft seien hier die vielfältigen Aktivitäten rund um das Thema „Frühe Hilfen“ genannt.
