Implementation of new models of sustainability in health care (approach)

At the 69. congress of the “Gesellschaft für Arbeitswissenschaft (GfA)” Harald Kviecien presented an approach focusing on integrated learning for the implementation of new models of sustainability in the health care. The approach, outlined in the publication of this congress (Kviecien 2023) consists of 2 sides: the integrated learning in organizations (left side) and the… Continue reading Implementation of new models of sustainability in health care (approach)

Conceptual design of integrated learning in health care (methodology)

The conceptual design of an integrated learning approach to be performed in health care organizations highly rely on practical experience and expert knowledge in health care and educational science. The composition of learning courses particularly need to focus on simplification (cf. Kviecien 2023). At the other hand the research and development on the subject of… Continue reading Conceptual design of integrated learning in health care (methodology)

Edge-to-edge based intervention and risk assessment approach

Complex problems in health related domains (particularly in health care and occupational health) means to face several big data problems. In the context of intervention and risk assessment KOHS showed that an edge-to-edge based architecture is needed to deal with these challenges. Edge-to-edge based architecture means – technically – that multiple computing nodes work de-centrally… Continue reading Edge-to-edge based intervention and risk assessment approach

Learning course: “mentorship” in health care

KOHS introduced a new learning course in 2022 addressing the “mentorship” as a relevant part in the educational process in health care (via diepartner.at). The learning course is certified according to §64 GuKG (Austrian law). The learning course “mentorship” can be seen as link between theory and practice. The target group (graduate nurses) get qualified… Continue reading Learning course: “mentorship” in health care
