“…This materialist understanding of the root causes of health inequities also acknowledges how the political economy shapes dominant discourses related to health, such as biomedicalism and neoliberalism (Friel et al, 2021;Raphael & Bryant, 2019). Similarly, a political economy perspective can also challenge prevailing assumptions about the nursing profession, namely that it is inherently beneficial, apolitical, or ahistorical (Foth et al, 2017). Therefore, in this discussion paper, we will challenge the notion that students in non-traditional CH placements can address health equity using a critical political economy lens before turning to strategies that may address the potentially exploitative nature of university and community partnerships.…”

Undergraduate nursing programs are increasingly using non-traditional community health placements within their curricula, though their impact on the organizations and clients they serve has not been widely explored. Therefore, this article aims to examine the use of non-traditional community health placements in undergraduate nursing programs using the political economy of health inequities as an analytical framework. We discuss the limits of non-traditional placements in addressing health inequities, suggesting our work contributes to the perception that something is being done to address the dual unregulated drug poisoning and housing crises while failing to tackle their root causes. We theorize that non-traditional health placements allow nursing programs to continue to graduate enough nurses to meet increasing workforce demands under prolonged austerity measures that have reduced funding to both post-secondary institutions and public health. Finally, we discuss strategies to mitigate harm and commit to more equitable partnerships. Keywords: political economy of health inequities, health equity, non-traditional placements, community health nursing, nursing education

“…Suppose the health and social care professionals view the older adult as an object. In that case, the professionals created a distance between them and the older adult and in doing so failed to recognize the other (Foth et al, 2017 ). By viewing the older adult as an object, they also denied their own humanity and functioned only as hands in a system constructed to take care of and fix biological machines (Mitchell, 2019 ).…”

Reflections of the collaborative care planning as a person‐centred practice

The ageing population is increasing worldwide with an increase in chronic disorders.At the same time, person-centred care has become a policy within both health and social care. To facilitate coordination and collaboration and integrate the older adult's perspective in the decision-making process the collaborative care planning process with the development of a written care plan can be used. In this study, the result of an interpreted analysis of four empirical studies of the collaborative care planning as a person-centred practice will be discussed and reflected on. A framework based on the French philosopher Paul Ricoeur's little ethics was used in the synthesis of the studies. The findings revealed two common threads: personhood and power asymmetry. Both challenges in achieving a person-centred collaborative care planning. Ricoeur's dialogical thinking and description of a person served as an underpinning in discussing and reflecting upon the findings of the interpreted synthesis. Collaborative care planning is a complex process. However, Ricoeur's philosophy contributed to a greater understanding of the collaborative care planning as a person-centred practice and accentuated that ethics, human values, and the older adults and care partners perspectives need to be given the same importance and considerations as the medical and social sciences perspectives for the collaborative care planning process to truly become person-centred.

“…The opportunity is that nursing professional groups will be relievedo froutine activities, and in return, use their professional knowledgeincounseling, health promotion, prevention, communication, and the like. The nursing process, comprised of the steps of assessment, planning of interventions/measures, implementation of interventions/measures and evaluation, could havea ni nherent machine principle (Foth et al 2017), if only the process is considered in sequence.Foth et al's (2017) critique of the nursing process includes af ocus on critical thinking, on quantitativee vidence and on constructing nursing care as ar ational choice process. Based on the fact, that the nursing process is takenasthe core instrument for the design of nursing work processes, procedures that can be automated and quantified are lefttoAI, especially machine learning, in order to leavethe social interaction, the culture of care and concern to the nursing professional.…”

In this way, the processesofindividual thought and meaningful action required for humane care (Foth et al 2017) are enabled insofar as standardizable and automatable content is used to support the care process with the help of AI and machine learning.F urthermore, it is about optimizing the decision-making processes of nursing care with the help of AI and machine learning (Freshwater/ Cahill 2017). Nonetheless, the impact of technological support of decisionmaking processes, in relation to the development of professionalization of nursing and the change in work processes,has not yet been extensively studied (Freshwater/Cahill2 017).…”

BackgroundIn Germany,wehaveahigh demand for nursing care on the one hand and,onthe other hand ahuge shortageofnurses. For the area of long-termcare, it is forecast that there will be as hortageo fn ursing staff of around 307,000 individuals by 2035. This results in asupply gap of about 500,000 nurses in the overall nursing care sector (Radke 2020). Schwinger et al. (2019) projectthat if the trend for the need of nursing care is extrapolated, it will increase from 590,000 individuals in 2019 to 720,000 by 2030 and to 980,000 individuals employed in nursing care by 2060. In relativet erms, this represents an increase of 67%. Differentiated into inpatientand outpatient care, these projections meanthat about 100,000 more positions will be needed in inpatient long-term care alone, and about 700,000 individuals should be employed in care by 2060, to meet the demand. In ambulatory care, an increase in needed staff of 220,000 is projected by 2030 (Schwinger et al. 2019). In these projections, however, it must be taken into account that as hortage of nurses can also be observed in hospitalsa nd rehabilitation clinics.Against this background, the hope is that new technology will, and can, support nurses in their work. To date, however, there has been little research conducted on required competencies for nurses to work appropriately with new technologies in nursing (Maalouf et al. 2018). Professional nursing will haveto meet new requirements in terms of professional competencies, as they will not only havetoidentify nursing needs, but will also havetobeable to plan, and use, the new technologies in line with the needs of the person in need of care, so that high-quality health and nursing care can be provided. The unanswered questions about new technologies in nursing care include: Why do we need them? To compensatefor nursing staff shortages and/or to optimize nursingprocesses? To support and/or facilitate nursing work?T osupport the autonomy, independence and self-determination of people in need of care?F urther questions are: What new technologies do we need?What does the human-technology interaction look Open-Access-Publikation im Sinne der CC-Lizenz BY 4.0
