在美国，从社区住宅到养老院的过渡是一种常见的，尽管是特殊的经历。这项研究采用了一种解释现象学的方法，揭示了美国中西部养老院的八名老年人在搬迁后不久以及大约两个月后如何构建家的意义。个人参与决策过程的程度也进行了探讨，因为它涉及到养老院设置内的家庭的意义。大多数人不认为设施是“家”，但积极改变他们对设施和自己的态度，以更好地适应设置。研究结果表明，在老年人的家庭定义的自主权的重要性。
The transition from community dwelling to a nursing home is a common, though idiosyncratic, experience in the United States. This study employed an interpretive phenomenological approach to uncover how eight older adults in nursing homes in the Midwestern U.S. constructed the meaning of home shortly following the relocation and again approximately two months later. The degree to which the individual had been involved in the decision making process was also explored as it related to the meaning of home within the nursing home setting. The majority of individuals did not consider the facility to be “home,” but actively changed their attitudes toward the facility and themselves to better adjust to the setting. The findings demonstrate the importance of autonomy in older adults’ definitions of home.
