Eksistens er et tredje vigtigt tema, og her giver bogen forskellige billeder på både livet og døden. Det fjerde tema er omsorg, der belyses ud fra flere perspektiver.

What Resilience Is Resilience is a coping skill. It is the practical ability to recover quickly from difficulties. It's like having a mental and emotional toolkit that helps you bounce back from setbacks. For instance, if you lose your job, resilience helps you cope with the initial shock and stress and then motivates you to update your resume and start applying for new positions, rather than getting stuck in despair. It's about facing life's problems head-on, rather than avoiding them. Imagine you leak in your roof. Resilience is grabbing a bucket to catch the water, calling a repair service, and perhaps figuring out a temporary fix, instead of just hoping the leak will stop on its own.

A Surgeon General's Advisory is a public statement that calls the American people's attention to an urgent public health issue and provides recommendations for how it should be addressed. Advisories are reserved for significant public health challenges that require the nation's immediate awareness and action. This Advisory calls attention to the growing concerns about the effects of social media on youth mental health. It explores and describes the current evidence on the positive and negative impacts of social media on children and adolescents, some of the primary areas for mental health and well-being concerns, and opportunities for additional research to help understand the full scope and scale of social media's impact. This document is not an exhaustive review of the literature. Rather, it was developed through a substantial review of the available evidence, primarily found via electronic searches of research articles published in English and resources suggested by a wide range of subject matter experts, with priority given to, but not limited to, meta-analyses and systematic literature reviews. It also offers actionable recommendations for the institutions that can shape online environments-policymakers and technology companies-as well as for what parents and caregivers, young people, and researchers can do.
Durch die demografische Entwicklung steigt die Anzahl älterer und kognitiv beeinträchtigter Menschen, die in einem Akutkrankenhaus behandelt werden. Dabei sind insbesondere Menschen mit einer Demenz mit ihren spezifischen Bedürfnissen auf der einen Seite und das ablauforiertierte System des Akutkrankenhauses auf der anderen Seite inkompatibel ¿ mit entsprechend negativen Auswirkungen für alle Beteiligten. Im Rahmen eines qualitativen Studiendesigns mit gruppenübergreifender Betrachtung wurde untersucht, ob Angehörige als Bindeglied zwischen der Person mit Demenz und den medizinisch-pflegerischen Fachpersonen des Krankenhauses agieren können. Das Ergebnis der Studie ist ein Modell der Beteiligung der Angehörigen von Menschen mit Demenz im Akutkrankenhaus: Angehörige leisten als Bindeglied einen besonderen Beitrag zur Verminderung oder gar Vermeidung von Problemen und Eskalationen auf beiden Seiten. Hierbei übernehmen sie bestimmte Rollen mit entsprechenden Funktionen und Aufgaben. Das Wissen um diese Rollen, die jeweiligen Zeitpunkte und auch um die Grenzen des Einbezugs von Angehörigen unterstützt Fachpersonen und Praktiker bei einem planvollen Umgang mit der Situation.
