Health is in the area of analysis of many sciences, e.g. psychology, sociology, pedagogy or philosophy. Each of them presents health and its specificity in a specific way. The most frequently indicated dimensions of health are: physical, mental (including intellectual and emotional), social, spiritual and transcendent. Contemporary pedagogical concepts of health emphasize that they can be considered as: value, resource (wealth), means, aim, a concept emphasizing the benefits of being healthy. Attention is also paid to the health mandala and the eudaimonic concept of family health. Thanks to these concepts, health is part of family care, educational and socialization processes. Parents, the main implementers of integrated interactions, create, among others, health behaviors, attitudes or lifestyle of their children. The subject of the research was the course of care, educational and socialization processes in professional foster families functioning in the city of Szczecin. The aim of the research was to find out about the specificity of family care, educational and socialization processes. The activities of professional foster families in caring for: children's health, their health attitudes and behaviors as well as health as a value in human life were especially emphasized. The research method was to triangulate the diagnostic survey method with the qualitative dimension of the case study. The technique used for the study was a questionnaire, in-depth qualitative interview and direct observation. The obtained empirical material was subjected to an in-depth quantitative and qualitative analysis with elements of interpretability of the data, however, efforts are being made to make a holistic diagnosis of the family. Axiologization of health attitudes in the surveyed families and making children aware of the need to take care of their own health on the basis of resources at hand are particularly significant for the armory.

The family as a basic social cell, the first human life environment, plays a fundamental role in securing needs, transferring social patterns and protecting its members. Taking into account the different family models that exist in the modern world, apart from traditional and reconstructed families, we also distinguish dysfunctional families, which does not immediately mean that they are pathological ones. Properly populating parental functions is one of the most important tasks of the family. It is a family that creates educational, caring and socializing environment for a child, where the characteristics of its personality and identity are evolving, as well as social norms are assimilated and associated with adequate sanctions. Family type and model can have a significant impact on the emergence of criminal behavior in adulthood. The author’s studies in the years 2007–2011 show that family relationships are the most significant factor in the biographies of prisoners. Besides, it has been shown that to start criminal activities and subsequent returns to such activities, they correlate with educational problems and numerous addictions in the family (from alcohol, drugs, psychoactive substances, gambling, etc.). The dysfunctions that arise as a result of the socialization process and the building of daily relationships can be linked to the entry into the criminal way of a young man, and thus foster a return to negative habits and recidivism in the future. The article aims to show the relationship between the being brought up in the dysfunctional family and the entrance to a criminal path, which may also be regarded as one of the causes of later recidivism of individuals.

Nowadays, geriatrics and gerontology are facing a great social chal-lenge. On the one hand, the age of human life is significantly extended, and on the other hand, families of people in the third age increasingly do not feel obliged to surround their Seniors with support and care. The life of older people, even in modern well-organized and affluent societies, is not free from threats related to their safety. Therefore, the question arises how to act so that people in old age feel satisfied with the fact that they were given to live to a ripe old age? However, taking adequate measures in this area and ensuring them the need for security in all psychosocial dimensions requires, above all, a deeper understanding of the society's attitude towards people of senior age. This study presents the results of research on attitudes towards old age, perception of the senior age as a value in the upbringing of the young generation, and the place and importance of older people in the family.

ABSTRACT The objective of this study was to build theory about the conceptions of family developed by nurses linked to the Family Health Strategy. This is a qualitative study with a theoretical framework in symbolic interactionism and methodological framework in Grounded Theory. Twenty-one nurses were interviewed who were affiliated with the Family Health Strategy. The theoretical script constructed has three central categories, described as Conceptions of Family, Family Environment and Family Approach. Nurses build their conceptions based on three specific experiences within the social, economic and cultural environment they operate in. Their concepts of family address origin, space, structure and relationships. The family approach derives from these concepts and depends on specific skills and resources. The study provides a theoretical base for making decisions for family care as well as for teaching the family approach to nurses.

This study aimed at assessing the family's perspective on a family care program to better understand the challenges and potential capacities for changing the health care model. A qualitative study was carried out to assess the Family Health Program in the city of São Sebastião, Brasília, Brazil. Data was collected through direct systematic observations of the workflow developed by the program's team, and through focal groups with family members. The discourse of the collective subject was used in data analysis and showed that health prevention and promotion actions and the relationship between providers and consumers were positively evaluated while access to health services, drugs and providers was negatively evaluated. There is no assurance of comprehensive and continuous care to the family, which points to the need of reviewing the strategies of health service organization for more effective involvement of the community to meet their health needs.

The occurrence of health issues in the family affected by the ability of the family itself to carry out the role and task of family health care. Family nursing has been developed in various countries as a solution to solve individual, family, and community health issues in a region. The family health status in Indonesia is measured by the Family Health Index (FHI) value, comprising the category of unhealthy families (FHI < 0.50), pre-healthy families (FHI value of 0.50 to 0.80), and healthy families (FHI > 0.8). This study aims to generate a literature review on strategies that can be used to improve the Family Health Index. The search database includes CINAHL, MEDLINE, and Google Scholar with several keywords: 'family nursing', 'family health', and 'family health status'. 102 articles published between the year of 2000 until 2019 have been obtained. The results of the literature review indicate that family nursing is an innovative and efficient strategy to achieve a preferable health status as well as a better quality of human life. Family nursing has a positive correlation with the increased ability of families to carry out their task in maintaining, preventing and overcoming family health issues independently. Research on the families' ability to carry out health care tasks to improve the health status by measuring FHI has never been done previously. Future research is required to discuss the relationship of families' ability in carrying out the five health care tasks to improve FHI independently in Indonesia.
