Dieses Fachbuch analysiert die Probleme, Risiken und Anreize des PEPP-Systems (Version 2015) anhand der Behandlung der Alkoholabhängigkeit. Dafür wurden über 1.300 Fälle des Evangelischen Krankenhauses Bielefeld aus dem Jahr 2014 verwendet. Zunächst wurden Fallgruppen erstellt für die Gruppen dann Parameter wie Verweildauer (VWD), PEPP-Kodierung, Erlöseinbußen durch Fallzusammenführungen und Fallerlöse ausgewertet. Ergänzend zu diesen Daten wurden Veränderungen der VWD, der Kodierung und zusätzliche Verlegungen zwischen G-DRG- und PEPP-System simuliert. So konnten Anreize zur Verkürzung der VWD bei paralleler Fallzahlsteigerung nachgewiesen werden. Patienten mit einem hohen pflegerischen Betreuungsaufwand sind "unlukrativ", während stationäre psychotherapeutische Behandlungen positive Deckungsbeiträge ermöglichen. Komplizierte Fälle werden benachteiligt. Daneben konnten Anreize zur gezielten Verlegung zwischen G-DRG- und PEPP-System dargestellt werden. ...

Wie werden wir künftig unsere Angehörigen pflegen? Über eine Million Pflegebedürftige werden in Deutschland ausschließlich von Angehörigen versorgt - Tendenz steigend! Die Pflegebedürftigkeit nimmt rasant zu und das Helferpotenzial ab - und: immer weniger Menschen können im Alter auf die Hilfe der Familie bauen. Pflege ist zu einem Massenphänomen geworden und die Fachwelt sucht seit Jahren erfolglos nach Auswegen aus dem drohenden Pflege-Desaster. Mit Care Sharing ist ein Selbsthilfe-Lösungsansatz entstanden, der mithilfe neuer Technologien die Angehörigenpflege revolutionieren könnte: Care Sharing ermöglicht über Plattformen und datengestützte Automatismen die Bildung von analogen Helfer-Netzwerken, die souverän agieren und sich autonom entwickeln können. In ihnen können sich die Betroffenen untereinander vernetzen. So können sorgende Gemeinschaften entstehen, die einspringen, wenn keine Familien mehr zur Verfügung stehen.Dieses Buch beschreibt die Grundlagen von Care Sharing. Dabei h...

Heute geht man davon aus, dass unsere Erde etwa 4,6 Milliarden Jahre alt ist. Die Erforschung von Gesteinsformationen in der ganzen Welt hat allmählich den Blick auf die lange Geschichte unseres Planeten freigegeben. Anhand von Gesteinen und Fossilien, die sozusagen in der Rinde unseres Planeten verborgen liegen, können wir nicht nur den Lebensformen in den verschiedenen Erdzeitaltern auf die Spur kommen. Die Gesteine lassen auch Rückschlüsse darauf zu, wie die Landschaften der Erde in früheren Erdzeitaltern ausgesehen haben. Wie sie sich, so wie wir sie heute kennen, entwickelt haben und unter welchen klimatischen Bedingungen. Dieses Buch erklärt anschaulich, wie Gesteine und Fossilien die höchst spannende Geschichte unserer Erde offenbaren können eine Geschichte mit explosionsartig zunehmender Formenvielfalt auf der einen und globalen Katastrophen auf der anderen Seite.

'A timely and important book . . . he brings to it rare clarity and common sense. His book is a fast-paced account of the last sixteen months of the tsar's life; brief, sharp, but laced with well-judged feeling for the dramas of the time.' Catherine Merridale, Observer In March 1917, Nicholas II, the last Tsar of All the Russias, abdicated and the dynasty that had ruled an empire for three hundred years was forced from power by revolution. In this masterful and forensic study, Robert Service examines the last year Nicholas's reign and the months between that momentous abdication and his death, with his family, in Ekaterinburg in July 1918.

It is also a compelling account of the social, economic and political foment in Russia in the aftermath of Alexander Kerensky's Febr...

Children are fragile, shy and unsure of themselves. Yet there are some children who feel they are the universe. They have to learn how to value themselves, their contribution, their property; and to do the same for others. They have to learn that that they do not live on an island by themselves. Therefore, they have to learn how to socially interact with others, learn how to love, respect, and appreciate themselves, as well as others. This book will teach them these skills.

Lonely, afraid and lacking confidence, I was on my knees praying for my son Grant every night. He was drinking, smoking pot, and getting in trouble at school and with the police for years. Did God answer my prayers? What did He teach me about my son, myself, and how God works in our lives? Why did I sometimes feel that God was sending me "stones" instead of "bread"? "Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone?" (Matthew 7:9 NIV) This true life story affirms that the love of God is always available, even, and maybe especially, for those who doubt. It is a story of challenging answers to prayer that led to healing and rebirth for both Grant and me. Though full of apparent failures and disappointments, it will ultimately encourage parents of difficult teenagers and hopefully prevent them from getting lost, as I did, in the shame, fear, hopelessness, and debilitating anger that often come with parenting a troubled teenager. "The Lord i...

The Yin-Yang Diet is a modern, scientific approach to balanced nutrition based on the ancient Asian concept of Yin and Yang. Yin and Yang describe how opposites or contrary forces are interconnected, interdependent and complimentary. The book explains the Yin or Yang nature of foods and nutrients and how they affect our constantly changing body chemistry. A diet that is too extreme in either Yin or Yang invites disease. A diet that is balanced in Yin and Yang creates metabolic health and harmony. On the furthest extreme of Yin are fruit, sugar and alcohol. Eggs, meat and salt are on the furthest extreme of Yang. Nutrients can also be classified as Yin or Yang. The most important mineral ratio is the potassium to sodium ratio. To be healthy, we must strike a balance between sodium (Yang) and potassium (Yin). Protein (Yang) and fat (Yin) comprise the opposite poles of our "life battery." The association of fat and protein represent the interaction of Yin and Yang from which ene...
