  • Utviklingsprosjekt Ved Nordfjord Sjukehus
    Utviklingsprosjekt ved Nordfjord sjukehus Analyse av pasientstraumar og forbruksrater i Nordfjordregionen Bruk av somatiske spesialisthelsetenester i kommunane Selje, Vågsøy, Eid, Hornindal, Stryn, Gloppen og Bremanger Deloitte AS Føresetnader og informasjon om datagrunnlaget i pasientstraumanalysen Analysane for 2010 er basert på 3 ulike datauttrekk. 1. DRG-gruppert NPR-melding (fra NPR) for alle pasientar i Helse Vest RHF, på HF-nivå pr kommune 2. DRG-gruppert uttrekk innhenta frå Helse Førde HF, dette for å få data på sjukehusnivå i føretaket 3. DRG gruppert uttrekk innhenta frå Helse Møre og Romsdal HF, over aktivitet på Volda og Mork for pasienter fra Nordfjord-regionen Det er et marginalt avvik mellom datagrunnlag for Helse Vest RHF og datagrunnlaget vi har motteke direkte frå Helse Førde HF. Helse Førde HF rapporterar 41 (+1,4 %) flere dagopphald og 49 (-0,9 %), færre døgnopphald og 4 (-0,01 %) færre polikliniske konsultasjonar enn dei «lukka» filane for Helse Vest RHF. Datagrunnlag for 2011 er basert på grupperte NPR-meldingar innhenta fra Helse Førde HF, samt Volda sjukehus og Mork rehabiliteringssenter Tellar-eininga i datagrunnlaget, er sjukehusopphald/konsultasjonar som inngår i ISF-ordninga. Aktivitet som inngår i ISF-grunnlaget er noko lavare enn den totale aktiviteten. For pasientar frå Nordfjord- regionene og ved sjukehusa Førde sentralsjukehus, Nordfjord sjukehus, Volda sjukehus og Mork rehabiliteringssenter, er avvika som følgjer: Døgnopphald 0,2% lavare, Dagopphold 1,3 % lavare og Polikliniske konsultasjoner 9,9%

Welcome to the Tre Lag Stevne in South Saint Paul, Minnesota. We were last in the Twin Cities area in 2009 in this same location. In a metropolitan area of this size it is not as easy to see the results of the Norwegian immigration as in smaller towns and rural communities. But the evidence is there if you look for it. This year’s speakers will tell the story of the Norwegians who contributed to the richness of American culture through literature, art, architecture, politics, medicine and science. You may recognize a few of their names, but many are unsung heroes who quietly added strands to the fabric of America and the world. We hope to astonish you with the diversity of their talents. Our tour will take us to the first Norwegian church in America, which was moved from Muskego, Wisconsin to the grounds of Luther Seminary,. We’ll stop at Mindekirken, established in 1922 with the mission of retaining Norwegian heritage. It continues that mission today. We will also visit Norway House, the newest organization to promote Norwegian connectedness. Enjoy the program, make new friends, reconnect with old friends, and continue to learn about our shared heritage.

Rasmussen Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology Submission date: February 2016 Supervisor: Per Bruheim, IBT Norwegian University of Science and Technology Department of Biotechnology Foreword This master thesis was delivered at the Department of Biotechnology at the faculty natural science and technology at Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) the 21st of February 2016. I would like to thank my main supervisor Per Bruheim who has been a great in- spiration and it has been a pleasure to work under his guidance. His supervision during the last couple of weeks before the deadline has been pivotal, and a very important motivator to continue pursuing to the best of my abilities. Words can- not express my gratitude. I would like to thank my co-supervisor Olav Vadstein for his research on the genetic analysis part of this thesis, without his help a very interesting element of this thesis would not exist. A special thank goes out to Ingrid Bakke and Zdenka Bartosova. Ingrid for her assistance in analyzing the genetic data and training in applicable software. Zdenka for her advice and help with Headspace GC-MS analysis. Thanks to family and friends, especially my father and mother, without their continued support, I would never have pushed myself to where I am today. i Sammendrag Atte˚ forskjellige kveikstammer fra voss, Stranda, Lærdal, Hornindal og Olden har blitt donert til IBT for analyse.

  • Draft Concept Paper: World Heritage Site Manager Workshop, Denmark 21 24 April 2009 Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit
    Draft Concept Paper: World Heritage Site Manager Workshop, Denmark 21 24 April 2009 Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit The Heritage Agency of Denmark has generously decided to host a workshop on the Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit (EoH). Representatives from all the Nordic sites are invited to attend. Nordic World Heritage Foundation will in cooperation with the Danish authorities organize this workshop in April 2009. The workshop is a result of the recommendations from the Periodic Reporting process. 1. Background and objectives The European Periodic Report was submitted to the World Heritage Committee at its 30th meeting in Vilnius 2006. The Nordic Baltic sub-regional report, annexed to the regional report, identifies a number of challenges for the implementation of the World Heritage Convention in the sub-region. Periodic Reporting is widely recognised as an important tool to strengthen and maintain the integrity and credibility of the World Heritage concept. The Periodic Reporting process has so far been successful in developing international cooperation and in providing an account of the status of World Heritage sites. This workshop follows the recommendations from the meeting between the Nordic and Baltic States Parties in 2007 (see Annex I Recommendations from the meeting on Periodic Reporting, Helsinki 3-4 May 2007 no: 6, 7 & 12). The World Heritage Committee will examine the Periodic Reporting follow-up activities for the European region at its 34th session in 2010. The Enhancing Our Heritage Toolkit contains twelve practical tools. Although it has been developed with a focus on natural properties, the initiative also has potential value as a tool to assist site managers of cultural properties.
