For over a decade the healthcare industry has attempted to mimic the non-medical industry with the use of incident reporting as one of many tools used to increase patient safety. But often healthcare workers are trained to perfect individual performance and the incident reporting descriptions are frequently weighted with character flaws (Leape, 1997). Human error is viewed as a personal failure in

Syftet med denna uppsats är att analysera kommunernas lagefterlevnad och om den varierar beroende av vilken politisk majoritet som styr kommunen. Konkret kommer det att ske genom att vi analyserar i vilken utsträckning kommunerna implementerat lagen om kommunala bostadsaktiebolagen, manifesterat som större utdelningar och högre vinstmarginaler. Vi kommer att sätta detta i relation till om kommunerThe purpose of this thesis is to analyze the level of law-abidingness of the Swedish municipalities and if this level differs with political majority. We do this by looking at by which extent they have implemented the law concerning these housing companies. By examining trends on their level of profit margins and dividends. Lastly we put this in relation to whether the municipalities adapt to the

Traditional risk assessment frameworks have been focused primarily on the factors of likelihood and impact, utilizing either a numerical (e.g. 1 to 5) or qualitative (e.g.low,medium, high) rating scale, resulting in the traditional two dimensional framework. The challenge of this model is that the focus is too narrow to eectively assess constantly changing risk environments and fails to dierentiat

Unemployment is one of the most debated political issues. Most politicians and scolars agree that it is at serious problem, but the theories of its causes and its remedies vary. Neoclassical theory blames among other things employment protection legislation and unemployment benefits and calls for less of both. In 1974 Swedens employment protection legislation LAS was implemented, and in 1993 the e

The subject of this paper concerns propaganda, articulated in the daily press and various publications, debating questions of the Swedish public libraries, library politics and the library act that was enforced in January 1997. It is a discourse analysis, focusing on the ideological, emotional and political viewpoints of writers representing the interests of the public libraries, which aims to stu

En öppen dagvattenhantering, avledning av dagvatten med fri vattenyta, medför en mängd positiva egenskaper på avrinningen som naturlig rening, fördröjning samt reducering samtidigt som den bidrar till en vackrare stadsmiljö. Det finns många goda exempel på områden med anlagda öppna dagvattensystem. Ett sådant är Augustenborg, Malmö, där man genom anläggning av ett fullskaligt, öppet dagvattensyste

Proceeding from recycled tires, benefit from the typical properties of rubber, transcribed into a product that fits the context of a balcony. A lamp is the conclusion, attached to be efficient in various situations and on different railings. Rubber is suitable for an illumination to stand hard weather conditions and tough treatment. The lamp in shape of a loop is easy to move around. It is elastic

This report covers the process and result in developing a hand hygiene station for a public environment. With disease spread getting more focus in todays media and society, we wanted to explore and develop a product that is helpful in decreasing the disease spread in our global society. Research was mainly conducted by information gathering from second hand sources, such as scientific- and trend

Individens vardagliga medieanvändning ökar vilket leder till en förändrad kommunikationskultur. Ny medieteknik och nya medier skapar nya behov vilket i sin tur leder till förändrade normer och bryderier. Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur socialiteten påverkas som ett resultat av vårt dagliga medieanvändande. För att nå en förståelse för dessa förändringar har nio semistrukturerade intervjuer

In this work the major models for calculating diffusion in simulations of a laminar premixed hydrogen flame, the mixture averaged approximation and the multicomponent model, are explained and compared. This is done in order to see if the accuracy gained in implementing the multicomponent model is enough to warrant the increased workload the transition will cause. The models are used to calculate

Syftet med denna kvalitativa studie är att belysa patienters upplevelse av akupunkturbehandling i vuxenpsykiatrisk öppenvård.

This disease causes loss of neurons in different areas of the brain, that gives rise to different behavioural changes and psychological disturbances including involuntary movements and depression.

This Master’s Thesis shows how to model the kinematics and forward dynamics for the parallel kinematic robot from ABB, IRB340 FlexPicker, and how to implement the control using software and hardware from B&R Automation. With conventional methods the forward kinematics, inverse kinematics and the kinematics for the velocities and accelerations of the robot are modelled. The forward dynamics, ca
