With the use of key terms via Boolean search, 30 articles were obtained which were determined to be germane to research objectives. The review was conducted and structured based on Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines.Results: Residents with dementia or Alzheimer’s disease are at greater risk of abuse. The growing population could increase this problem exponentially. The most common facilitators were the introduction of policies/programs in the facility, education, and working conditions. The most cited barriers were poor training, lack of research, and working conditions in the long-term care setting.Conclusion: The examples given would be useful in minimizing the potential for abuse in the long-term care setting. Leadership can take an active role in the prevention of abuse of the elderly through their actions, education of employees, and changes in the work environment.Keywords: exploitation, nursing facility, skilled nursing, nursing home

Abstract

24th European Photovoltaic Solar Energy Conference, 21-25 September 2009, Hamburg, Germany; 3577-3580, This article deals with possibility to use electrically conductive adhesive joints instead of soldered joints in the solar cells electrode system. One of the advantages of the using adhesive joints instead of soldered joints is less mechanical destruction of solar cells during the production. Like a next advantage we should notice on ecological point of view. Therefore in this article will be compared three different types of electrically conductive adhesives against solder. We prepared specific samples for four-point probe method measurement of the electrical resistance between conductive layer and tinned copper ribbon. The samples were temperature stressed and the change of the electrical resistance between the connection of the conductive layer and tinned copper ribbon was observed.
