背景资料:护理人员和研究人员之间的战略合作网络可以成为改善安全和高质量护理的有力手段。老年护理人员掌握着关于研究实用性和在临床环境中易于实施的重要信息。老年护理工作人员最好的定位,以建议在临床环境中的研究的可行性,并为特定的居民在他们的照顾,不管事实上,他们往往不参与研究过程。目的:探讨老年护理人员对研究的态度,特别是影响因素,促进和维持护理人员参与研究的住宅老年护理设施(RACF)设置。在悉尼的两个老年护理设施现场进行了定性半结构化访谈,10名老年护理人员在他们参加一项随机对照试验之前和之后在他们的病房。访谈探讨了老年护理人员的看法,研究的重要性,工作人员的合规性和影响因素,在RACF setting.Findings进行研究:老年护理人员报告进行研究的重要性,在RACF。参与的障碍包括时间不足(50%)、对干预效果缺乏信心(30%)、缺乏研究知识(40%)或支持(30%)。研究被认为是实用的(40%),可以不引人注目地进行(60%),提供量身定制的教育(70%),研究人员和老年护理人员之间的有效沟通(50%),更有利于工作人员的参与。老年护理工作人员认识到,研究结果在实施时对提高护理质量很重要,但在RACF中进行研究具有挑战性设置.实施战略,支持老年护理人员的研究时间远离临床任务,获得研究教育和促进学术和工作人员之间的沟通,可以提高护理人员参与research.Conclusion:重点战略之间的合作伙伴关系培育的老年护理人员,学术研究人员和行业管理可以促进和维持工作人员的研究能力照顾老年人在RACFs。皇冠版权所有(C)2019由爱思唯尔有限公司代表澳大利亚护理学院有限公司发布。
Background: Strategic collaborative networks between care staff and researchers can be a powerful means of improving the provision of safe and quality care. Aged care staff hold vital information on research practicality and ease of implementation in the clinical setting. Aged care staff are best positioned to advise on a study's feasibility in the clinical environment and for the particular residents in their care, regardless of the fact that they are often not involved in the research process.Aim: To explore aged care staff attitudes towards research particularly the influencing factors that promote and sustain care staff participation in research in the residential aged care facility (RACF) setting.Methods: Qualitative semi-structured interviews were conducted at two aged care facility sites in Sydney with 10 aged care staff before and after their participation in a randomised controlled trial on their ward. The interviews explored aged care staff perceptions of the importance of research, staff compliance and factors that influence research conducted in the RACF setting.Findings: Aged care staff reported on the importance of conducting research in RACFs. The barriers to staff participation included insufficient time (50%), lack of belief in intervention effect (30%), deficits in research knowledge (40%) or support (30%). Research perceived as practical (40%) that could be conducted unobtrusively (60%), provided tailored education (70%) with effective communication (50%) between researcher and aged care staff, was more favourable for staff participation.Discussion: Aged care staff recognised that findings from research when implemented was important for improving quality care provision but it was challenging to conduct research in the RACF setting. Implementing strategies that support aged care staff research time away from clinical tasks, access to research education and foster communication between academic and staff can improve care staff participation in research.Conclusion: Focused strategies fostered by collaborative partnerships between aged care staff, academic researcher and industry management can promote and sustain the research capacity of staff caring for older people in RACFs.
