Der Forschungsschwerpunkt der Arbeitsgruppe liegt auf der Bearbeitung von Fragestellungen zu Pflege und Unterstützung von Menschen im höheren Lebensalter und Menschen mit chronischen Erkrankungen. Im Fokus stehen dabei insbesondere Partizipation und soziale Teilhabe, gleichermaßen aber auch der Erhalt und die Förderung von Funktionalität und Lebensqualität. Unter Einbezug der Erkenntnisse aus Gerontologie, Geriatrie und Rehabilitationswissenschaft adressieren die Themenstellungen sowohl die eigene Häuslichkeit als auch die verschiedenen ambulanten und stationären Settings sowie die Rehabilitation.

Abstract

The AOK Saxony-Anhalt pursues the goal of providing their members with high quality healthcare services to the greatest extent possible. The University Halle-Wittenberg conducts intensive healthcare research in their Profile Center for Health Sciences. As part of a cooperation between the AOK Saxony-Anhalt, the Institute for Health and Nursing Science and the Institute for Medicinal Epidemiology, Biometrics and Informatics, a research group is being set up to deal with practically relevant issues concerning health, medical and nursing care as well as prevention.

The aim is to find scientifically based solutions for the healthcare of the people insured in the region, using all the opportunities offered by science and research and the knowledge of the AOK Saxony-Anhalt. Above all, the generation of synergies is expected from this cross-institutional approach. The AOK Saxony-Anhalt will provide anonymized data of the people insured with them which should form the basis for a realistic situation in healthcare provision. It should be underlined that thus a basis will be formed for sustainable healthcare in Saxony-Anhalt, taking into account future changes in the urban and rural structures of the region.

A four-member advisory board has been appointed to support the group. Dr. Stephanie Heinrich is the head of the research group and also the contact person (E-Mail: Stephanie.Heinrich☉uk-hlle.de).
