The aim of this experience consisted of making an analysis on health inequalities, as well as of using it as a tool in decision-making participative processes in the local administration area. Thus, a replicable procedure for all ages and groups was designed. Besides this, assets have been widely classified, in accordance with the territorial distribution, p…

Design: A two-phase qualitative content analysis was perfor…
Order out of chaos
In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and the universal chaos created by it, this study explores the role of sense of coherence (Soc, Antonovsky, 1979) and how it enables coping with a stressful situation and staying well. SOC is a generalized orientation which allows one to perceive the world as comprehensible, manageable, and meaningful. In an attempt to understand 'how does the SOC work' we employed the salutogenic assumption that a strong SOC…

However, there is little evidence regarding the satisfaction of nurses with this model. The purpose of this study was to examine nurses' satisfaction with continuity of care and the case management model. A cross-sectional study was conducted. An ad hoc questionnaire…

Evolution of Job Satisfaction and Burnout Levels of Emergency Department Professionals during a Period of Economic Recession
Satisfaction at work has been found to be a predictive factor of permanency. On the other hand, burnout has been associated with financial loss. The purpose of this study was to analyse the levels of satisfaction and burnout of professionals in a hospital emergency department and make a comparison with results from the same service during the economic recession in 2012. An analytical, cross-sectional and descriptive study was undertaken during tw…
Health Literacy among Health and Social Care University Students
Health literacy has been defined by the World Health Organization as the cognitive and social skills which determine the motivation and ability of individuals to gain access to, understand and use information in ways which promote and maintain good health. Its importance in reducing inequalities makes health literacy a thematic area that should be addressed in the training of professionals in the fields of healthcare, Social Work and Education. T…
Dispositional Optimism, Burnout and Their Relationship with Self-Reported Health Status among Nurses Working in Long-Term Healthcare Centers
The mental health of nurses working in long-term healthcare centers is affected by the care they provide to older people with major chronic diseases and comorbidity and this in turn affects the quality of that care. The aim of the study was to investigate dispositional optimism, burnout and self-reported health among nurses working in long-term healthcare centers. A descriptive, cross-sectional survey design was used. Survey questionnaires were d…
Salutogenic health promotion program for migrant women at risk of social exclusion
The health promotion program reduced perceived stress, increased physical quality of life and showed a trend toward increased self-esteem, especially among migrant women with multiple vulnerability factors. The salutogenic model of health should be considered as a good practice to apply in health promotion programs and to be included in national policies to reduce health inequity in migrant populations
Determinants of health literacy in the general population
Catalonia has a high percentage of subjects with sufficient HL. Education level, socioeconomic status and physical limitations were the factors with the strongest contribution to inadequate or problematic health literacy. Although these results are likely to be country-specific, the factors identified will allow policymakers of areas with similar socioeconomic profiles to identify groups with high risk of problematic or inadequate HL, which is es…
Reducing health inequities affecting immigrant women
BACKGROUND: Immigrant women often experience health inequities, whether for reasons of gender, country of origin, or socioeconomic status. The view of immigrant women has always focussed on their needs, without taking into account their available assets. A salutogenic approach incorporating an assets analysis could provide a new perspective on the design of health promotion interventions to reduce health inequities. The study objective was to ide…
