Objetivos: Conocer la percepción del grado de satisfacción que tienen las madres, con hijos menores de un año y que participan en las dinámicas grupales que los CAP ofrecen, en relación al contenido y redes de provisión del Apoyo Social (AS) así como las causas que disminuyen la satisfacción en el receptor de este apoyo. Material y métodos: Estudio con diseño cualitativo y enfoque fenomenológico. La población objeto de estudio estaba constituida por madres participantes en dinámicas grupales de cinco CAP de la provincia de Barcelona. Como instrumento de recogida de datos se empleó la entrevista semiestructurada, entre julio de 2011 y julio de 2012; todas fueron grabadas, transcritas y analizadas. Resultados: AS informal: la mayoría de las madres están muy satisfechas-completamente satisfechas con el AS informativo, emocional y evaluativo procedente de las enfermeras; identificándose 4 categorías que contribuyen en esta percepción: contacto profesional/accesibilidad, disparidad y/o actualización, confianza y no procede. AS formal, la mayoría de las madres están muy satisfechas-completamente satisfechas con el AS informativo, emocional, evaluativo y técnico procedente de la pareja y madre (abuela materna); identificándose 8 categorías en esta percepción: disparidad y/o actualización en los consejos, exigencia, empatía, confianza, inseguridades, tiempo, distancia y no procede. Conclusiones: Los factores identificados deberían considerarse en los planes de mejora de la satisfacción y acompañamiento de las madres en este momento de profundos cambios en su vida; dado que aportar un AS satisfactorio repercute en la promoción de la salud y prevención de la enfermedad (AU)

It is presented a report of nine years of experience with the Hospital Escort Program for geriatric patients, carried out by nurses of a University Hospital (UFSC), at the Medical Unit II, since 1993. The goal is to integrate the family that cares for the elderly patient, bringing them to the hospital as a Nursing partner or client. The program also seeks to give psychosocial support to the patients; to enhance the escort's skills to care for the elderly on their daily activities and also on specific health tasks after hospital discharge; to develop healthy life practices within the family, which had shown appreciation and recognition to the program.

A telephone survey was conducted to describe current practices and policies of patient transport in Australian hospitals. The survey had a 94% response rate. Results showed considerable variability and ambiguity throughout the sample in both practice and policy. Findings also indicated that criteria used for transport practices were predominantly shaped by physiological and technological considerations. Factors related to human and financial resources, as well as psychological and emotional aspects of the patient's condition, received little attention.

With the recent formation of the Queen Elizabeth II Health Sciences Centre in Halifax, Nova Scotia, a number of challenges have arisen that must be addressed. One involves the porter service, which faces increased demands since every department has new and often expanded duties for porters. This paper identifies obstacles facing the porter service and develops recommendations, which may also be of interest to other healthcare facilities facing similar challenges.
