Self-Management and Relationships: Perspectives of Young Adults With Chronic Conditions and Their Peers
Because their disease is largely managed in the private environment, people with chronic conditions perform 'chronic homework.' The environment with which self-management is coordinated forms a kind of 'chronic care infrastructure' in dealing with the disease and, in the case of young adults with chronic conditions (YACCs), is essentially formed by peers. The article investigates how YACCs handle their illness in the context of their peer relatio…
Barriers to and enablers of the promotion of patient and family participation in primary healthcare nursing in Brazil, Germany and Spain: A qualitative study
BACKGROUND: Most health systems are insufficiently prepared to promote the participation of chronically ill patients in their care. Strong primary health care (PHC) strengthens patients' resources and thus promotes their participation. The tasks of providing continuous care to people with chronic diseases and promoting self-management are the responsibility of PHC nurses. Recent research assessing enablers of or barriers to nurses' efforts to sup…
Co‐production in coping with care dependency in Germany: How can integrated local care centres contribute
In Germany, most care dependent people are looked after by family members at home. Professional support can help ease the burden of caring relatives and stabilise home care. Ideally, care then is provided through the co-production of formal and informal caregivers. This article analyses how care dependent people and their family caregivers integrate professional support into their care arrangements. An analysis was conducted using data collected …

Migration, Unemployment, and Lifeworld: Challenges for a New Critical Qualitative Inquiry in Migration
Migration is an issue for many countries. It affects several areas of social problems, for example, work and unemployment. A relevant issue to study in the context of unemployment and social welfare is, "Which are experiences of migrants with different language backgrounds in finding work and support?" For a running study with episodic interviews and mobile methods with migrants from the former Soviet Union to Germany, several issues are discusse…
Migrating Diseases: Triangulating Approaches-Applying Qualitative Inquiry as a Global Endeavor
Understanding qualitative inquiry as a global endeavor and using it in a globalizing context leads to several challenges. Differences in concepts of what qualitative research is may become visible. Methods like interviews may have a different connotation in other cultures, where our interviewees come from. We may have to conduct and analyze interviews differently. These challenges are discussed here on the background of an ongoing project focused…

When They Sleep, They Sleep: Daytime Activities and Sleep Disorders in Nursing Homes
Are nurses aware that activities can reduce residents' daytime sleepiness and increase sleep quality at night in nursing homes? This question is studied in a project focusing on sleep disorders and multi-morbidity in long-term care. In Germany, episodic interviews with 32 nursing staff members (age 24-60 years) with different qualifications addressed their views on links between residents' daytime structure and activities and their sleep/disorder…
Sleep Disorders and Activities in Long Term Care Facilities -a Vicious Cycle
Sleep disorders are symptoms of many diseases. Persons suffering from multiple morbidities are affected most. We investigated the relationship between sleep and activities using assessment data of 2577 German nursing home residents. In total, 37.3 percent were affected by insomnia, 29.6 percent by non-restful sleep. We used SEM to analyze the relationship between sleep disorders and activities. Residents with sleep problems exhibited low levels o…
Idealization and Neglect: Health Concepts of Homeless Adolescents
How do homeless adolescents think of health and perceive their own health status? Episodic interviews with ( N = 24) homeless adolescents (age 14-20 years) in Germany addressed several aspects of the adolescents' representations of health: their definitions and experiences of health and links between both. Results show the meaning of health for participants in street life. Patterns of perceiving the relevance of health and of possible influences …
