Die Arbeit untersucht die anhaltende Präsenz von Gewalt im Pflegebereich, trotz der Hoffnung auf eine Abnahme durch zivilisatorische Entwicklungen. Während offene Gewalt im Alltag seltener geworden ist, bleibt sie im Verborgenen, insbesondere im häuslichen Umfeld, weiterhin ein ernstes Problem. Die Studie analysiert die subtilen Formen der Gewalt und beleuchtet deren Auswirkungen auf die Pflegepraxis. Mit einer Note von 1,0 reflektiert die Arbeit die Ergebnisse einer Weiterbildung für Pflegeberater an der Hochschule Deggendorf, in Kooperation mit dem Medizinischen Dienst der Krankenversicherung in Bayern.

Die digitale Fotografie erweitert die Möglichkeiten, Motive im Bild festzuhalten allein schon dadurch, dass man beliebig viele Aufnahmen und Einstellungen ausprobieren kann. „Mit der Kamera sehen„ ist ein Leitfaden voller Ideen und exemplarischer Fotos bekannter Fotografen, die dazu anregen sollen, den ästhetischen Aspekt der Fotografie in den Vordergrund zu stellen. Die Grundlagen der modernen Digitalfotografie sowie der Nachbereitung, Präsentation und Aufbewahrung des Bildmaterials werden in Kürze dargestellt. Übungen leiten dazu an, den Blick für das gute Bild zu verbessern, aber auch das eigene Werk kritisch zu analysieren. „Ansatz des Buches „Mit der Kamera sehen“ ist, dass Komposition, Design und Licht die entscheidenden Elemente eines guten Bildes sind. Die Kamera ist dann das Instrument, eigene Ideen visuell festzuhalten. Hat man diese Fertigkeiten einmal erworben, kann man sich der Software-Techniken der Bildnachbearbeitung zuwenden."
