“…The extent to which public health promotion is applied [57] in the telephone health service assignment is a subject for future studies. The need for learning might possibly differ, depending on parents' age, ethnicity, social network and level of knowledge.…”

The focus of the presented research is parents' expectations and experiences of calling Swedish Healthcare Direct (SHD) regarding pediatric health issues. Telenursing is a rapidly expanding service and SHD handles up to 2.4 million pediatric health calls yearly. Mothers make the majority of the calls and reportedly receive self-care advice more than fathers. Parents' views are important for the development and safe use of telenursing health services. The study is qualitative, with an exploratory and descriptive design. Twenty-one interviews with parents were analysed using content analysis. According to the interviewees, the decision to contact SHD or not is influenced by their degree of worry or trust in the service. Calls are carefully prepared, and who will call is often predetermined and affected by gender. Parents want to be given a chance to speak first in their communication with telenurses. They want to be listened to carefully and to be accorded respect, to have their needs fully explored and to have their concerns relieved. Most parents follow telenurses' recommendations, a few exclusively. Some primarily trust their own intuition. Learning is frequent, implying the public health potential of calls, not least for foreign-born callers. Exploring parents' expectations provides insight into parents' worries, potential to increase parents' learning and may develop their trust in telenurses' recommendations. Telenurses' awareness of gender impact can further develop the telenursing health service in providing safe care on equal terms for a vulnerable patient group, children.

“…Because one of the aims of the healthy settings approach is to move health into the contexts of everyday life, it is important to understand how organisations such as universities work, in order to ensure that health can become truly embedded within this and other settings that do not have health as their raîson d'être (37,45). The key challenge is thus to find ways to align health with the organisation's core business and initiate and/or manage change.…”

The settings approach appreciates that health determinants operate in settings of everyday life. Whilst subject to conceptual development, we argue that the approach lacks a clear and coherent theoretical framework to steer policy, practice and research.Aims: To identify what theories and conceptual models have been used in relation to the implementation and evaluation of Healthy Universities.Methods: A scoping literature review was undertaken between 2010-2013, identifying 26 papers that met inclusion criteria.Findings: Seven theoretical perspectives or conceptual frameworks were identified: the Ottawa Charter; a socio-ecological approach (which implicitly drew on sociological theories concerning structure and agency); salutogenesis; systems thinking; whole system change; organisational development; and a framework proposed by Dooris. These were used to address interrelated questions on the nature of a setting, how health is created in a setting, why the settings approach is a useful means of promoting health, and how health promotion can be introduced into and embedded within a setting.Conclusion: Although distinctive, the example of Healthy Universities drew on common theoretical perspectives that have infused the settings discourse more generally. This engagement with theory was at times well-developed and at other times a passing reference. The paper concludes by pointing to other theories that offer value to healthy settings practice and research and by arguing that theorisation has a key role to play in understanding the complexity of settings and guiding the planning, implementation and evaluation of programmes.
