Mental Health Experiences and Needs of Women With Congenital Heart Disease in Pregnancy and Postpartum: A Qualitative Participatory Study

Recent research has explored the meanings older people attribute to some of their daily occupations. However, limited inquiries have focused on computer use, an occupation less frequently associated with older age groups.

Two asynchronous online focus group…

Method: In‐depth semi‐structured interviews were conducted with six activists in aged care and human rights. Results: Findings are discussed in relation to three broad themes: barriers to change; who should do what?; and str…
Women and Ageing: Experience and Implications
A feminist analysis of the experiences of elderly Australian women is explored through sixteen biographical accounts. Through the employment of narrative material a classification of the powerful stereotyping imposed upon these women is produced. The components of the stereotype are gathered together under three headings - social, physical and mental
The Nursing Home as Total Institution: A Case Study and Suggestions for the Aged Care System
A symbolic interactionist perspective is used to examine the effects of institutionalization on residents of a Sydney nursing home. The analysis suggests that much of the ‘negative’ behaviour observed among inmates results from the institutional structuring of a dependence role. Implications for long term care of the aged in both community and institutional settings are discussed
