Skolan-En betydelsefull arena för främjandet av elevernas hälsaAndersson, Jenny, Palmér, Jenny January 2008 (has links)
Vårt arbete beskriver hur EN skola arbetar på ett hälsofrämjande arbetssätt. Möjligheterna och eventuella svårigheter med ett hälsofrämjande arbete i skolan kommer att presenteras. Med hjälp av enkäter och intervjuer undersöker vi hur skolledaren, pedagogerna och skolhälsovården ser på sin roll i deras hälsofrämjande arbete. Vår fråga är: Vad betyder begreppet hälsa för skolan och hur omsätts det i praktiken? Världshälsoorganisationen (WHO) inställning till hälsa är inte bara att förhindra sjukdomar och dålig hälsa, utan att förebygga både fysiskt och psykiska hälsa. Eftersom skolan är en plats där vi kan möta de flesta elever är det viktigt att hälsoarbetet börjar där. Ett hälsofrämjande arbete kan förbättra både elevernas hälsa och deras kunskap. En salutogen teori är teorin som vi tycker är den som passar bäst för vårt arbete. Teorin handlar om att ta tillvara på det friska hos eleverna och vad de är duktiga på. Inte på det sjuka eller vilka problem som skulle kunna uppstå. Vår slutsats är att skolan har en vision om hur skolan vill arbeta men det fungerar inte i dagsläget. Några av pedagogerna arbetar redan på ett hälsofrämjande sätt men de önskar att få tydligare direktiv. För att få ett hälsoarbete att fungera, behövs det tydligare instruktioner och en fungerande skolledning. / Our work is a description of how one school works in a health promoting way. The possibility and possible diffuculties with health promoting work in school will be presented. With help of questionarie and interviews we examen how the principal, the teachers and the schoolsister look at their role in their health promoting work. Our question is: what does the school give credit for in the conception health and how do they put it into practice?Worldhealthorganisations (WHO) coprehensvie view on health isn´t just to prevent sickness and bad health, it is to promote health, both physical and mental care. Since school is the place where you can meet most of the children it is important that the healthcare starts there. A health promoting work can improve both the student’s health and their knowledge.A salutogenic model is the theory we think is the most appropiate for our work. The theory is about how we manage to maintain what´s good and well in a students´ life. Not the bad things or what kind of problems that could appear.Our conclusion is that the school has a vision about how they should work but today it isn´t working. Some of the teachers are already working in a healthpromoting way but they wishes to have more clearly instuctions. To make the healthpromoting work success, it needs more clearly instructions and a working management.

Unmasking Responsibility: An Investigation into Responsible Citizenship During the COVID-19 Pandemic in OttawaCayouette, Kyle Gordon 06 September 2023 (has links)
This thesis examines health promotion discourse in Ottawa during the COVID-19 pandemic to explore what it means to be a responsible citizen. Using press releases/special statements and tweets from January 2020 to November 2022 from city officials and city departments in Ottawa, this thesis employed critical discourse analysis (CDA) to explore potential changes in health promotion discourse and meaning-making, asking how citizenship was remade in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings support claims that health is increasingly neoliberalized, with a greater emphasis placed on individual health as a condition of responsible citizenship. This increased neoliberalization ultimately shifts our attention away from state responsibilities vis-à-vis citizens, and in this case, the neglected role of local governments in managing health crises.

Behavioral and Healthy Lifestyle Changes after Implementation of a Walking Program among Teachers at an Elementary SchoolWoolfolk, Sara 05 August 2006 (has links)
Health experts are recommending an average of 10,000 steps daily to attain certain health benefits and suggesting the use of pedometers for calculating ambulatory activity, such as walking. A 13-week, worksite walking program was implemented with teachers at an elementary school providing pedometers, weekly walking groups, bimonthly supplemental nutrition information, and a survey upon program completion to evaluate the effectiveness. Results showed that of the 31.3% that participated, 93.6% have tried to increase their daily activity in the past and 58.1% found the Bee Active walking program to be more effective than previous attempts. Participants reported that wearing the pedometer helped motivate more physical activity and increase total daily steps taken. For non-participants (63.6%), schedule conflicts and lack of time were the top two participation barriers. As a result of providing the bimonthly nutritional information, both participants and non-participants have attempted to make healthier food choices, while increasing their daily consumption of fruits and vegetables significantly.

A socially situated approach to inform ways to improve health and wellbeingHorrocks, Christine, Johnson, Sally E. 26 March 2015 (has links)
No / Mainstream health psychology supports neoliberal notions of health promotion in
which self-management is central. The emphasis is on models that explain
behaviour as individually driven and cognitively motivated, with health beliefs
framed as the favoured mechanisms to target in order to bring about change to
improve health. Utilising understandings exemplified in critical health psychology,
we take a more socially situated approach, focusing on practicing health, the
rhetoric of modernisation in UK health care and moves toward democratisation.
While recognising that within these new ways of working there are opportunities
for empowerment and user-led health care, there are other implications. How these
changes link to simplistic cognitive behavioural ideologies of health promotion and
rational decision-making is explored. Utilising two different empirical studies, this
article highlights how self-management and expected compliance with
governmental authority in relation to health practices position not only
communities that experience multiple disadvantage but also more seemingly
privileged social actors. The article presents a challenge to self-management and
informed choice, in which the importance of navigational networks is evident.
Because health care can become remote and inaccessible to certain sections of the
community, yet pervasive and deterministic for others, we need multiple levels of
analysis and different forms of action.
