Tsweleng M. L Objective The objective of this study explores and describes the experiences of first-time mothers regarding pain management during the first stage of labour.

Midwives were also interviewed to determine their assessment and management strategies in this regard in order to get abroader perspective of the focus of inquiry Findings The data collected from mothers revealed three themes and they are; the care rendered needs / wishes and beliefs / feelings of the mothers regarding the care given. These themes were further subdivided into small headings/ categories as specified in the data and elaborated on. Eight categories of care strategies emerged from the data gathered from midwives. Information from both the mothers and midwives were then extensively discussed and compared to the existing literature Conclusions and recommendations Conclusions were drawn and recommendations formulated to assist midwives and other health care professionals to improve their caring JOURNAL OF AGING AND INOVATION (EM LINHA) ISSN: 2182-696X / (IMPRESSO) ISSN: 2182-6951

Mai Yamanoi RN,MSN, Department of Home Care Nursing, Graduate School of Nursing Kanto Gakuin University, Japan Objective: This paper is to present part of the research we have conducted on the mechanisms of provider-patient communication in geriatric facilities in Japan. In our previous studies, we have identified two different types of communication between caregivers and residents: Type I (task- oriented) and Type II (life-worldly) communication. Based on those results, we examined the mechanism of communication between them, using a qualitative method of analysis. Method: We used Conversation Analysis to investigate conversational features of the two types of communication ,were found in the linguistic exchanges between caregivers and residens. Study subjects comprised 37 residents. In this study, for the purpose of detailed, sequential analysis, we chose two typical examples of the two types of communication between them. R e s u l t s : W e f o u n d t h a t , i n Ty p e 2 communication, the elderly were given the possibility of expanded utterance opportunities and self-initiated utterances as nursing staff presented life–worldly topics of elderly residents as topics that the elderly could and should talk about whereas, in Type 1 communication, taskoriented speeches were initiated by caregivers, JOURNAL OF AGING AND INOVATION (EM LINHA) ISSN: 2182-696X / (IMPRESSO) ISSN: 2182-6951

the shortcomings of nurses and the nursing profession, generating academic commentaries on the causes and effects of a ‘compassion deficit’. The authors report the findings of a comprehensive review of national and international evidence focused on core professional values. One hundred and seventy seven (177) publications were evaluated and a total of fourteen (14) international and nineteen (19) UK research reports were included. Data from the studies were extracted and synthesized as a narrative. The key themes showed that caring and compassion are inherent nursing values which are influenced by the training curriculum, professional role modeling, but mostly by the organization and culture in which nurses’ work. In this paper the findings of the review are discussed in relation to how compassionate care can be upheld in a European Union suffering an unprecedented financial crisis. Although the

Despite the importance of directional preference, there was no deep research of other directions, such as rotation, and their contribution to improve NSCLBP. Similarly, most studies on active group exercises in NSCLBP used a mixture of body positioning in their protocols with no preferences for weightbearing or non-weight-bearing exercises. OBJECTIVE: To examine the effects of group
RESULTS: There were significant improvements in most dependent variables in the positional studies (weight-bearing and non-weight bearing positions) as follows (p<0.05): an increase in lumbar flexion and extension (mean differences of 6◦ for flexion and 4◦ for extension; reduction in VAS score (mean difference = 4.21); an increase in RMQ total score (mean difference= 10.76). Changes in the VAS score was highly correlated with changes in the RMQ score (r = −6.35). There were no significant improvements were indicated, however, in any of the dependent variables in the rotation exercise group (p>0.05).

CONCLUSIONS: Unlike the positive effect of group exercising conducted in weight-bearing and non-weight-bearing positions, group exercising with directional preference into rotation did not affect the range of motion of the lower back, the pain intensity and functional level in individuals with non-specific CLBP.

Lina Kantar American University of Beirut, Lebanon Although the educational preparation of nurses fails to meet the demands of health care systems, actual practice and clinical education of nursing graduates remains unexplored. In this multiple-case study design, the clinical practice of new graduates who had worked for three months was examined through the narratives of 20 preceptors. The preceptors were selected from three recognized hospitals in Beirut, Lebanon, and responses were analyzed using NV ivo 8 qualitative software. Through content analysis research technique, the curriculum documents of three baccalaureate nursing
realities. The traditional curriculum dominated in the three programs and instructional approaches were almost all teacher-centered. Findings converge on the need for a transformation in nursing education, thus supporting relentless calls for curriculum innovation. Recommendations that have impact on graduates’ transition are categorized into academia and service. The joint efforts of both are cardinal for resolving transition challenges. The discipline, educational leaders, and inservice executives might benefit from the findings as suggestions for change are illuminated in regards to how nurses must be adequately prepared prior to assuming professional roles.
programs that prepared the graduates of the study’s key informants were analyzed. Curriculum analysis aimed at relating the role of the curriculum in the transition process.
