ABSTRACT Objectives: to understand care for the spiritual dimension provided by caregivers in a Nursing Home. Methods: this is a qualitative research, carried out in a geriatric center of a philanthropic hospital in the city of Salvador, Bahia. Eighteen formal caregivers participated, through a semi-structured interview, between January and February 2019. The data were analyzed in the light of Jean Watson’s Theory of Transpersonal Caring. Results: formal caregivers discuss the spiritual dimension based on older adults’ religious beliefs, encourage religious practices and exercise spiritual care according to older adults’ physical, emotional and spiritual demands. Final Considerations: formal caregivers understand that older adults’ religious or spiritual experiences should be included in their work routine. Care for the spiritual dimension occurs by stimulating faith in God, encouraging religious practices and embracing their beliefs in the face of physical, emotional and spiritual demands.

Hygroscopic effects in ionic liquids and salts in general, and how to suppress said hygroscopy, often needs to be considered during the everyday work routine. Chemicals that decompose, undergo hydrolysis or in any way change their composition when exposed to air are generally not considered to be bench-stable. In this study, we synthesized a low-hygroscopic, bench-stable carbohydrate-based hydroxide salt. This new product was synthesized in an optimized three-step procedure with 91% overall yield. Its worth as a building block was proven through the reaction with different natural acids, leading to new carbohydrate-based ionic liquids (CHILs) in the process.

Abstract This article examines the representation of mental health issues in the computer role-playing game Disco Elysium by using Albert Camus’ theory of the absurd as a basis. Through his daily work routine as a detective, the protagonist Harry DuBois’ trauma unfolds through the course of the game while simultaneously revealing the psychosocial aspects of trauma. Interpreting Harry’s existential struggles as those of an absurd hero supports the idea that finding (greater) meaning is not a necessity when coping with trauma.

Objective: The outbreak of COVID-19 lead to an uptake of telework worldwide. We evaluated the prevalence of psychiatric symptoms, potential risks, and protective factors, across a sample of Italian workers that converted to teleworking.Methods: 804 participants completed an online survey, including sociodemographic information (current work routine, home environment and clinical history) and the psychometric scales “Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale – 21 items” and “Insomnia Severity Index.”Results: 30% of participants presented pathological levels of depression, 20.8% of anxiety, 30.7% of stress, and 5% appeared to suffer from insomnia. Prevalence was higher in respondents with psychological and physical frailties, greater social isolation or inadequate working spaces. However, telework itself was broadly appreciated and did not seem to be directly associated with increased psychiatric symptoms, which were exacerbated instead by COVID-19-related stress or by constitutional and social determinants of health.Conclusions: Authorities should promote adequate measures to guarantee a healthy approach to teleworking.

Aim: The surge of COVID 19 infection across the globe has put tremendous pressure on Healthcare Professionals worldwide. Emergency Medical Professionals are first responders and hence bear the brunt of exposure to the virus as well as dealing with critically ill patients. The aim of the study is to assess psychological resilience towards COVID 19 amongst Emergency Medical Professionals. Study Design: Descriptive Study. Place and Duration of Study: Symbiosis Centre for Health Skills, Pune in April 2021. Methodology: The study was conducted amongst 120 Emergency Medical Professionals in Pune, India. The data was collected during the month of April 2021. Professionals who have completed Post Graduate Diploma in Emergency Medical Services and working in COVID centres for at least one year were included in the study. A 38-item questionnaire was developed for frontline Emergency Medical Professionals and included questions adapted from the tools which are available in public domain. Results and Discussion: Working in a stressful environment along with continuous fear of self-exposure and risk of transmission to family members affects the efficacy and productivity of Emergency Medical Services Professionals. Debriefing, training for effective ‘breaking bad news’ stress management workshops and counselling sessions should be integrated into their work routine to enhance their psychological capacity. Conclusion: The findings indicate that even after a year of serving COVID 19 patients, Emergency Medical Professionals demonstrate a high degree of resilience. Yet there are areas requiring improvement which need to be focussed upon immediately in the interest of the mental well-being of Emergency Medical Professionals.

This study aims to determine the convergence process between social media and television in Indonesian television broadcasting companies, by taking a case study at a television broadcasting company called Indosiar. Convergence is carried out as a result of the large number of social media users in Indonesia. The number of internet users in Indonesia is 175.4 million people or 64% of the total population of Indonesia. Meanwhile, the number of social media users reaches 160 million people or 59% of Indonesia's total population. Many television broadcasting companies are converging with social media, one of them is Indosiar. The research using the observation method was carried out mid to late 2019. The research was stopped due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The research continued with in-depth interviews in early 2021. To find out the form of convergence that occurs in Indosiar, this study uses the concept of Pavlik (2001) regarding journalistic convergence: newsroom, newsgathering and content. Meanwhile, to determine the degree of convergence, this study uses the convergence continuum from Dailey, Demo and Spillman (2005). This research uses qualitative case study methods and data collection techniques through in-depth interviews with eight senior journalists and managers managing convergence, field observations and documentation. The results of the study conclude that the newsroom convergence that occurs in Indosiar is a type of Co-ordination of isolated platforms as formulated by Aviles et al (2009). The newsgathering convergence model at Indosiar is partial because it only occurs on special projects and does not become a daily work routine (Khadzig, 2016). The content convergence model that occurs in Indosiar is not yet capable of multiplatform (Tomic, 2015). Meanwhile, based on the convergence continuum, Indosiar has carried out the cross-promotion and cloning stages well, but has not fully carried out the coopetition and content sharing stages, and has not done full convergence at all.

Purpose Team coaching is a promising way to advance a shift from the classical leader to a coach who leads his/her interprofessional colleagues. It is acknowledged as an effective instrument to reinforce leaders’ roles but is rarely used in the health-care sector. This paper aims to present the team leader coaching programme (TLCP), designed to strengthen team leaders by implementing coaching tools into their work routine. Design/methodology/approach The TLCP was designed based on the evaluated intervention on patient-centred team development, an expert workshop and a literature search. It addresses leadership styles, self-reflection, role clarity, attitude, moderation techniques and coaching tools with a focus on systemic questions. It was implemented as a train-the-trainer concept, in two training groups including 27 participants from 12 clinics (“multi-clinic” group) and another in-house training group (“single-clinic” group) including 15 participants from one clinic. Findings There were differences in the evaluation of the training between the group that received an inhouse training (“single-clinic” group) and the group that received a workshop in a group of professions from different clinics (“multi-clinic” group) with a tendency for a more positive evaluation by the “multi-clinic” group. Originality/value The TLCP is a promising programme to potentially improve teamwork in rehabilitation clinics, as it provides team leaders with coaching tools they can use in their work routine without being dependent on external coaches. It is characterized by a reflective stance, which seems to be highly necessary to optimally fulfil the role of a team leader.
