The interviews were analysed using thematic analysis (TA). Normalization Process Theory (NPT) was used as theoretical framework.Results: Uniform sickness absence procedures are meaningful and provide clear expectations for line managers and employees about roles and responsibilities during sick leave. Line managers expressed a desire for flexibility in adjusting the procedures to the individual needs of the employees. They also reported a need for proactive preventive actions that prevent sickness absence from occurring in the first place. The line managers reported lacking competencies to ensure appropriate sick leave management and that their own well-being was often overlooked.Conclusion: Future interventions should focus on improving the work environment instead of focusing solely on absenteeism. It is essential to consider the well-being of the line managers and provide adequate training, as this can affect their capability to ensure the well-being of, and reduce sickness absence, among their employees.","PeriodicalId":51468,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-Being","volume":"20 1","pages":"2510560"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144188464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Of this population, some people require support to eat. People in care homes consider mealtimes as central to their care experience but repeatedly report dissatisfaction with them. This paper examines what makes for positive or negative supported eating interactions (SEI) between care staff and people with neurological conditions aged 18-65.Methods: The paper draws upon semi-structured interviews conducted with residents and healthcare staff exploring the role of food in the care of adults with neurological conditions in long-term care settings.Results: Six core themes (1. Time and timing, 2. Individualized support and care(ing), 3. Choice and autonomy; 4. Core clinical knowledge and skills; 5. De-humanizing Practices; and 6. Environment) drawn through reflexive thematic analysis were identified.Conclusions: There was significant parity between resident and staff considerations regarding the essence of what makes up a positive or negative SEI. Most core principles for delivering positive SEI's fall within the knowledge and skills of individual healthcare staff. However, the findings on time and environment require organizational support to enable staff to deliver the best SEI.","PeriodicalId":51468,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-Being","volume":"20 1","pages":"2508948"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12107641/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144152808","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study investigated adults' perceptions of using apps and wearables for health purposes.Methods: A qualitative interview study was conducted. Adults (+18) using an app/wearable to monitor at least one health variable (e.g. physical activity and diet) were eligible. Transcriptions were analysed using the Reflexive Thematic Analysis.Results: Nineteen participants (34.3 ± 14.5 years; men/women: 8/11) joined the study and from their transcriptions 5 themes were created: 1) Easy and accurate monitoring of health: balancing users' needs and technological challenges; 2) Self-improvement and motivation: usefulness of rewarding behaviours and gamification towards achievements; 3) Requiring personalized apps and wearables: aesthetics and wearability; 4) Beyond simple monitoring: prevention and care throughout daily life; 5) Awareness of potentially dangerous digital data world: from distress to fixation.Conclusions: Apps and wearables were highly valued by our participants for effectively managing and enhancing their health and sports performance while ensuring education, motivation, ease of use, safety, and prevention. However, issues such as privacy concerns, wearability, and lack of integration need to be addressed to improve adoption, enhance usability and support active ageing initiatives.","PeriodicalId":51468,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-Being","volume":"20 1","pages":"2447096"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142900354","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although this scourge affects everyone, regardless of gender, studies on rape victimization have largely focused on women and children as the victims. Studies on rape victimization of men are therefore limited and little is known about the consequences of rape victimization for men. Accordingly, this study sought to fill this gap by exploring the consequences of rape victimization for men in the City of Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality, Gauteng Province, South Africa.Method: A qualitative research approach underpinned by interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) was used to collect data from a purposive sample of eleven participants. Data was collected using semi-structured face-to-face individual interviews and analysed using the IPA framework. Trustworthiness and validity of study findings was ensured by following Lincoln and Guba criteria, and the study followed ethical principles outlined in the Declaration of Helsinki on conducting research with human participants.Results: Six superordinate themes emerged from the data as consequences of rape victimization for men, namely physical, psychological, emotional, social, spiritual and financial consequences.Conclusion: The study provides a comprehensive description of the effects of rape on the overall well-being of men. The findings underscore the need for the development of holistic clinical care management guidelines and psychosocial interventions that are specifically tailored for men post-rape. Furthermore, longitudinal studies on the long-term impact of rape on men should be conducted.","PeriodicalId":51468,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-Being","volume":"20 1","pages":"2437905"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11770861/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142808310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data were analysed using van Manen's existentials and guided by the theory of affordances.Results: The primary findings were as follows: (a) attempting to provide a therapeutic atmosphere, (b) design as symbolism, (c) altering the physical environment means altering time, (d) offering spaces for connection and communication, and (e) embodying the new mental health facility.Conclusion: The findings indicate that regardless of whether affordances are actualized, opportunities and obstacles in the hospital environment impact the staff's ability to provide inpatient care according to their standards. Conflict arose due to obstacles inherent in the organization and structure of the new mental health facility that limited opportunities to utilize possible affordances.","PeriodicalId":51468,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-Being","volume":"20 1","pages":"2485697"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11963181/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143755780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, nurse leaders, due to their influential positions, have the responsibility to facilitate this environment. Consequently, leaders need to receive adequate resources and support from their superiors to foster an environment that enhances nurses' health and job satisfaction.","PeriodicalId":51468,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-Being","volume":"20 1","pages":"2460255"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11789224/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143069453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

All caregivers face unprecedented challenges, but this is further intensified when caring for someone with drug and alcohol dependency which this paper argues are direct social harms.Methods: This paper presents findings from an external evaluation of three projects from a wider national programme funded by NHS England and Improvement [NHSE/I]. Identified by NHSE/I as a vulnerable community, interviews were conducted with eight caregivers who were caring for someone with drug and alcohol dependency, which this paper focuses on.Results: After thematic analysis was conducted on qualitative data, key themes emerged that emphasized a range of specific challenges faced by unpaid carers, including stigmatization and marginalization, a lack of understanding about drug and alcohol dependency, and caring for complex needs, which were particularly challenging in accessing appropriate support.Conclusions: Caregivers overwhelmingly advocated for the urgent need to raise awareness around the role of being a \"carer,\" to see more individualized support provided, in addition to the recognition of treating mental health alongside drug and alcohol dependency in a supportive holistic approach.","PeriodicalId":51468,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health and Well-Being","volume":"20 1","pages":"2500395"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12077432/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144063216","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
