Little is known about the relationship between registered nurses’ (RNs’) knowledge of nursing documentation, their attitudes towards this documentation, and how they perceive the importance of the forms used in the documentation process within residential aged care. The current study has several aims. This investigation sought to gain a measure of RNs’ knowledge of, and attitudes towards documentation, and assess their perception of the importance of forms used to document care. There were two phases of study. Study 1 utilised a cross-sectional, retrospective design with a large sample of RNs

There still appears to be much to do to make the National Health Service in England a safer place for patients. Hospitals, in particular, are complex organisations in which staff and processes are under the twin simultaneous demands of an increasingly aged society and severe financial constraints. While much health care is well delivered, there remains a need to predict, and to explore, where and why problems occur. This thesis presents work which has refined methods and tools that can be used at health system and organisation levels to explore some key safety and quality issues in health care

The current literature suggests one of the challenges of nursing today is to meet the health care needs of the growing older population, people over the age of 65. Quality of nursing is important for acutely ill older people who are the largest group of patients in terms of hospital admissions. The ageing population is a major focus for social and economic planners and policy makers.

To that end it is extremely important for nurse managers to create an organisational climate that promotes the emotional stability of nurses. This could help to improve global patient safety by reducing the frequency of adverse events. Many of the factors commonly associated with burnout, also causes unsafe patient care, and poor quality of care.

The recent reports by Institute of Medicine, `To Err is Human' and `Crossing Quality Chasm', revealed a large prevalence of medical errors and substandard care in US hospitals. Since then there has been a substantial increase in the efforts to measure and improve quality of care. The objective of this study was to compare the quality of care across hospitals using available performance indicators and examine the association between organizational factors and hospital performance. The main focus of this study was on important structural attributes of hospitals, namely - teaching status, locatio

This thesis is an examination of the definition and implementation of ‘good practice’ in residential care for senior citizens. The central contention is that ‘good practice’ is a term that has been variously defined. Different groups define it in different ways, and their definitions have changed over time. This reflexive qualitative study explores ‘good practice’ in local authority, voluntary and private residential care homes in Scotland from the perspective of policy, practice and the experience of senior citizens who live in them. The study is based on analysis of policy documents, histori

A decade of heightened awareness concerning safety issues in healthcare since the Institute of Medicine’s awakening call has resulted in a string of counteroffensive measures. The pace of improvement has been slow and not altogether clear. Rates of patient harm are in general now measured by voluntary reporting and indicator measurements. The use of triggers or clues in random nurse-based reviews to enable identification of patient harm is a more effective method for measuring the overall rate of harm in a health care organisation. Measured actual overall rates of patient harm, their variation

Background: Several international studies have been published on the importance of exploring and describing the perceptions of professional nurses to improve patient safety and quality of care. There is also a growing body of literature that has established the associations of qualifications on patient safety and quality of care. However, no comparable research has been conducted in South Africa, and little is known about the influence of personal characteristics, such as qualifications of the professional nurse, on his/her perception of patient safety and quality of care.

<p>The purpose of this study was to examine and describe how politicians and directors of care define and experience quality in aged care facilities. Further on we wanted to compare on which fundamental principles the participants base their opinion about quality and how they work with quality. To reach our aim we conducted five interviews with politicians and directors of care. The results show that it is hard to determine quality in an unambiguous and objective way. Quality in aged care appears to be about relations and encounters amongst people. The participants in our study agree that expe

Background: Australia’s growing ageing population presents several challenges for the government, economy and health and aged care sectors to cater to their increasing needs. Age-associated changes in mobility, which can lead to impaired nutrition status and lower quality of life (QoL) for older adults, also contributes to this burden. Physical activity is recommended to manage the age-associated changes in older adults. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the feasibility of conducting a pragmatic study to assess the effects of an established, structured activity program on QoL, mobil
