K-S Turvamiehet oy:n järjestyksenvalvojien hätäensiapuosaaminen ja kehittämistarpeet
Get PDFNykyhetkinen järjestyksenvalvojakoulutus sisältää yhteensä vain neljä, 45-minuutin mittaista hätäensiavun oppituntia. Ensiaputaitojen ylläpitoon ja kertaamiseen järjestyksenvalvojana työskentelevällä henkilöllä ei ole velvoitetta. Tämän vuoksi on mahdollista, että järjestyksenvalvojan ammatissa työskentelevät henkilöt omaavat paikoittain puutteelliset ensiaputaidot. Järjestyksenvalvojat ammatissaan vastaavat kokonaisvaltaisesta turvallisuudesta. Kokonaisvaltaiseen turvallisuuteen vaikuttaa, sitä kohentavasti se, että järjestyksenvalvojilla on valmius toimia myös ensiapua vaativissa tilanteissa.
Tämä opinnäytetyö tehtiin yhteistyössä yksityisen turvallisuusalan yrityksen, K-S Turvamiehet Oy:n kanssa. Opinnäytetyön tutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli selvittää K-S Turvamiehet Oy:ssa työskentelevien järjestyksenvalvojien hätäensiapuosaamista. Tutkimus toteutettiin määrällistä tutkimusmenetelmää käyttäen. Tutkimuksen kohderyhmänä olivat K-S Turvamiehet Oy:ssa työskentelevät järjestyksenvalvojat. Tutkimusaineisto kerättiin sähköisellä kyselylomakkeella. Vastauksia kyselyyn tuli yhteensä 73.
Tutkimuksen ensiaputaitoja mittaavat kysymykset olivat monivalintakysymyksiä, joista vastaaja valitsi mielestään oikean vastausvaihtoedon omaan tietoonsa perustuen. Lisäksi tutkimme järjestyksenvalvojien halukkuutta, mielenkiintoa ja motivoituneisuutta ensiaputaitoja ja ensiapukoulutusta kohtaan, sekä lisäkoulutushalukkuutta.
Tutkimuksessa selvisi se, että järjestyksenvalvojat osasivat hätäensiaputaitoja pääsääntöisesti hyvin. Hengityksen ja verenkierron osalta järjestyksenvalvojat osasivat kiitettävästi eri toimintamalleja, sekä tärkeitä havainnoitavia asioita. Kyselyyn vastaajista suurin osa oli saanut muutakin ensiapukoulutusta, kuin järjestyksenvalvojan peruskurssin sisältämän hätäensiapukoulutuksen. Yli puolet vastaajista oli myös joutunut järjestyksenvalvojan ammatissa antamaan hätäensiapua. Ainoat selkeät puutteet vastaajien tiedoissa liittyivät elottomuuden tunnistamiseen ja paineluelvytyksen toteuttamiseen. Elottoman hätäensiapu oli myös toivotuin aihealue kysyttäessä lisäkoulutushalukkuutta.Current training for security guards includes only four 45-minute lessons of emergency first aid. There is no obligation for a person working as a security guard to maintain and review their first aid skills. As a result, it is possible that people working as security guards have deficient first aid skills. Security guards are responsible for overall security. Overall security is enhanced by the fact that security guards are prepared to act even in situations that require emergency first aid skills.
This thesis was conducted in collaboration with the private security company K-S Turvamiehet Ltd. The purpose of this thesis was to find out the level of emergency first aid skills of the security guards working for K-S Turvamiehet Ltd. The study was carried out using a quantitative research method. The research material was collected with an electronic questionnaire. A total of 73 responses were received to the survey.
The questions measuring first aid skills were multiplechoice questions from which the respondent chose the correct answer based on their knowledge. In addition, the authors examined the willingness, interest, and motivation of security guards towards first aid skills and first aid training, as well as their willingness to receive additional training.
The study revealed that security guards generally had good first aid skills. With regard to breathing and blood circulation security guards were admirably familiar with different operating models, as well as important observable things. Most of the respondents had received other first aid training than emergency first aid training included in the basic course of security guard training. More than half of the respondents had also performed emergency first aid in the profession of security guard. The only clear gaps in respondents’ knowledge were related to the identification of a lifeless person and performing CPR. Emergency first aid of a lifeless person and CPR were the most desired topics of additional training amongst the respondents
K S Maniam: Malaysian writer.
No full textK S Maniam is a prolific writer, with three novels, plays, and numerous short stories to his credit. An intense, reserved, yet courteous person, he lives with his wife and children in a modest, two-storeyed house in Subang, one of the dormitory suburbs of Kuala Lumpur, the capital of Malaysia. It was my privilege to visit him there, and to engage in the discussions on which this profile draws. Despite his critically-acclaimed literary achievements, Maniam is denied official recognition and public acclaim in his country of birth because he chooses to write in English, rather than the national language known as Bahasa Malaysia. Yet there are valid reasons for his choice of literary medium, reasons that are inherent in Malaysia's modern history as former British colony and now independent state to which immigrant communities have made a vital contribution. Nor does his use of English render him less authentic a Malaysian than his literary counterparts in that country. Indeed, his works are imbued with the vibrancy of the Malaysian landscape, both human and physical
Malaysian landscapes in the fiction of K S Maniam
No full text[Introduction]: In his prolific output of fiction, including two published novels and numerous stories, K S Maniam has explored and revealed a range of Malaysian landscapes for the people who live there. Whilst acknowledging that “landscape” is an elusive concept that is difficult readily to define, this analysis accepts Victor Savage’s broad approach to landscape as a “living process “ which involves “the total sensually perceptible features of a person’s experience at a particular place and time.” (1) For Maniam, the landscapes are variously natural and cultural, exterior and interior, childlike and adult, a rich panorama. Accordingly, the paper examines such dimensions of landscape as physical settings, memory, dream, and imagination, mind and personality, margins and shadows, as well as institutions from plantation to coffee shop. Through all these settings, Maniam has furnished a vital and authentic Malaysian mosaic. This paper considers the significance of this mosaic through a thematic study of Maniam’s fictional output to date, i.e. from 1976 to the present. The American author, Joyce Carol Oates, has observed that “all artists know either consciously or instinctively that the secret intention of their life’s work is to rescue from the plunge of time something of beauty, permanence, significance,”(2) and so it is with Maniam as literary artist, and with Malaysia as place and experience. This analysis also draws on the key basic assumptions set out by Altick and Fenstermaker in The Art of Literary Research (1993), firstly that to understand the meaning of a text, it is necessary to know as much as possible about its creator, the author, and secondly that authors and texts are products of particular social and historical contexts.(3

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
