Objective 1) To identify nurses’ perspectives on their current and potential role; 2) To identify influencing factors to support an active lifestyle of stroke patients during inpatient rehabilitation treatment. Methods - Three focus groups with 18 nurses (EQF level 3-6) were conducted in three Dutch rehabilitation centres (Den Haag, Leiden, Arnhem) each focus group consisting of 5-8 nurses. - The transcribed data were analysed using framework method.

The purpose of this article is the presentation of a multidimensional guideline for the diagnosis of anxiety and anxiety-related behavior problems in people with intellectual disability (ID), with a substantial role for the nurse in this diagnostic process. DESIGN AND METHODS: The guideline is illustrated by a case report of a woman with ID with severe problems. FINDINGS: It appears that a multidimensional diagnostic approach involving multidisciplinary team efforts can result in a more accurate diagnosis and improved subsequent treatment. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: Nurses should be engaged in the diagnostic process because of their ability to make direct observations and to actively participate in carrying out all parts of the guideline.
In this study, we address the function of role models for entrepreneurship students. By using entrepreneurs as role models, students can get a better and realistic picture of the complexity of the entrepreneurial path. Choosing whom to interview as role model can be diverse, but it can be problematic if, as a result of that choice, the learning effect in the same group of students is different.
