    CHILDREN’S RIGHTS IN HOSPITAL: FROM STATEMENTS TO RESPECT

    No full text
    The recent celebration of the twentieth anniversary of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989) allows both a general consideration of children’s rights and self-criticism of social and professionals sectors, in order to better focus on the distance between official statements and effective respect in children’s life settings. These settings also include hospitals which are an occasional but also important life setting for children. Hospital is a fundamental institution in terms of the social role it plays and it also has a pivotal role also in relation to other social organizations and community services. Recently international research – conducted in 17 hospitals and pediatric departments in Europe and Australia – studied the respect for children’s rights in hospitals, arousing the attention of the hospital management, of the staff and of children’s representative associations on this issue. This also enabled us to underline the main problems and merits concerning children’s rights

    Six assertions about the salutogenic approach and health promotion

    No full text
    Background: The concept of health is a continuously changing issue, with ever richer and more comprehensive meanings and definitions. In recent decades, we have witnessed a strong evolution of the scientific paradigms and cultural frameworks that influence health patterns. In particular, in 1986 the Charter of Ottawa gave further dimensions to the concept of health and pushed the concept of health promotion to the forefront. In this context, the salutogenic approach, proposed by A. Antonovsky, represents a theoretical contribution which stimulates discussion about meanings and implications. Aim and Methods: The present paper aims to provide a conceptual framework for the interpretation of health patterns and to broaden the theoretical interpretation of the salutogenic approach. In order to do this, a literature review was carried out, taking into account several disciplines and perspectives, including sociology and anthropology. The data collection for this paper was undertaken through two parallel literature reviews and systematisation of the information gathered. Results: The following health patterns were identified: the disease treatment pattern, the health care pattern, the disease prevention pattern and the health promotion pattern. These approaches allow one to better analyse and understand the added values of the salutogenic approach. Conclusions: The present discussion contributes to the debate surrounding the salutogenesis theory and its applicability to the healthcare setting by proposing six assertions about the salutogenic approach to health promotion

    The Think and Action Tank (TAT) on Children’s Rights to Health was established in 2013 as an international network of child health advocates. The TAT’s mission is, “To develop, implement, evaluate, and disseminate rights and equity-based strategies, models, and tools to advance children’s health and well-being by fulfilling their rights.” Toward this end, the TAT has developed a conceptual and operational framework to support a human and child rights-based approach to health; and a Platform and Action Cycle (PAC) as a strategy and tool to translate the principles of human and child rights-based approaches to health into practice. The PAC consists of three action steps—contextualizing, assessing, and improving. Through a structured process of generating rights and equity-based statements, indicators, and reports, the PAC establishes a mechanism to engage multi-disciplinary professionals and children themselves in efforts to realize the vision of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child

    La contrazione erogativa dell’Assegno di Cura a favore di persone anziane nel territorio della AUSL di Bologna nel periodo 2010-2014

    Nel 2010, l’applicazione del regolamento relativo all’assegnazione degli Assegni di cura (ADC) ha determinato, negli anni successivi, una generale diminuzione degli ADC per anziani in tutto il territorio della Azienda USL di Bologna. A 3 anni dall’applicazione del regolamento è emersa da più parti (Comune, Sindacato etc) la necessità di conoscere meglio la popolazione a cui è stata sospesa l’erogazione dello strumento di supporto alla domiciliarità, sia da un punto di vista socio- demografico che dal punto di vista degli esiti del percorso assistenziale
