Title : Patient centered care : We are definitely not there yet! Material Type: printed text Publication Date: 2018 Article on page: p.7-8 Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng)
in Geriatric Nursing > Vol.38 No.6 (์Nov-Dec) 2017 [03/05/2018] . - p.7-8Keywords: Patient centered care. Abstract: In 2001, The Institute of Medicine (IOM) defined patient-centered care as “providing care that is respectful of and responsive to individual patient preferences, needs, and values and ensuring that patient values guide all clinical decisions.” This continues to be the goal across all health care settings. Unfortunately I personally don't think we are there yet. I am not even sure that providers truly understand, from the patient perspective, what patient-centered care really is. It seems facilities are rewarded for their patient centered care approach if they implement certain practices.

Title : Caregivers for older adults: prevalence characteristics : and health care utilization and expenditures Material Type: printed text Authors: Musich, Shirley, Author ; Wang, Shaohung S., Author ; Kraemer, Sandra, Author ; Hawkins, Kevin, Author ; Wicker, Ellen, Author Publication Date: 2018 Article on page: p.9-16 Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng)
in Geriatric Nursing > Vol.38 No.6 (์Nov-Dec) 2017 [03/05/2018] . - p.9-16Keywords: Caregiver, Older adults, Health care utilization, Health care expenditures Abstract: The purpose of this study was to provide an overview of caregiver prevalence and characteristics and to estimate the impact of caregiving on health care utilization and expenditures among AARP® Medicare Supplement insureds to inform caregiver intervention strategies. A subgroup with live-in partners was used to investigate the additional effect of live-in health status on caregiver health. Multivariate regression models were utilized to determine caregivers' characteristics and associated impacts on their health care utilization and expenditures. Among respondents (n = 18,928), 14.9% self-identified as caregivers. The strongest characteristics included being younger, healthier, but reporting depression or loneliness. Caregivers of sicker live-ins were female, older and indicated moderate loneliness; caregivers of healthier live-ins were younger, healthier, but reported severe loneliness. Caregivers had significantly lower inpatient admissions and medical and prescription drug expenditures. These results indicated an adverse impact on psychological health associated with caregiving but no evidence of a negative impact on physical health.

Title : Observations of oral hygiene care interventions provided : by nurses to hospitalized older people Material Type: printed text Authors: Coker, Esther, Author ; Ploeg, Jenny, Author ; Kaasalainen, Sharon, Author ; Carter, Nancy, Author Publication Date: 2018 Article on page: p.17-21 Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng)
in Geriatric Nursing > Vol.38 No.6 (์Nov-Dec) 2017 [03/05/2018] . - p.17-21Keywords: Oral hygiene interventions, Nurses, Hospital, Observation, Case study Abstract: Dependent older hospitalized patients rely on nurses to assist them with the removal of plaque from their teeth, dentures, and oral cavities. Oral care interventions by 25 nurses on post-acute units, where patients have longer hospital stays, were observed during evening care. In addition to efforts to engage patients in oral care, nurses provided the following interventions: (a) supporting the care of persons with dentures; (b) supporting the care of natural teeth; (c) cleansing the tongue and oral cavity; and (d) moisturizing lips and oral tissues. Patients' oral hygiene care was supported in just over one-third of encounters. Denture care was inconsistently performed, and was infrequently followed by care of the oral cavity. Nurses did not encourage adequate self-care of natural teeth by patients, and infrequently moisturized tissues. Evidence-based oral hygiene care standards are required to assist nurses to support patients in achieving optimal oral hygiene outcomes.

Title : The role of interoersonal sensitivity social support : and qulaity or life in rural older adults Material Type: printed text Authors: Wedgeworth, Moniika, Author ; LaRocca, Michael A., Author ; Chaptin, William E., Author Publication Date: 2018 Article on page: p.22-26 Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng)
in Geriatric Nursing > Vol.38 No.6 (์Nov-Dec) 2017 [03/05/2018] . - p.22-26Keywords: Interpersonal sensitivity, Rural, Older adults, Quality of life, Social support. Abstract: The mental health of elderly individuals in rural areas is increasingly relevant as populations age and social structures change. While social support satisfaction is a well-established predictor of quality of life, interpersonal sensitivity symptoms may diminish this relation. The current study extends the findings of Scogin et al by investigating the relationship among interpersonal sensitivity, social support satisfaction, and quality of life among rural older adults and exploring the mediating role of social support in the relation between interpersonal sensitivity and quality of life (N = 128). Hierarchical regression revealed that interpersonal sensitivity and social support satisfaction predicted quality of life. In addition, bootstrapping resampling supported the role of social support satisfaction as a mediator between interpersonal sensitivity symptoms and quality of life. These results underscore the importance of nurses and allied health providers in assessing and attending to negative self-perceptions of clients, as well as the perceived quality of their social networks.

Title : Older adults personal routine at time of hospitalization Material Type: printed text Authors: Zisberg, Anna, Author ; Gur-Yaish, Nurit, Author Publication Date: 2018 Article on page: p.27-32 Languages : English (eng) Original Language : English (eng)
in Geriatric Nursing > Vol.38 No.6 (์Nov-Dec) 2017 [03/05/2018] . - p.27-32Keywords: Daily routines, Life regularity, Hospitalization, Older adults, Functional status, Nursing Abstract: This study is the first to explore whether hospitalization disrupts the daily routines of dependent and independent older adults. Data were collected as part of a prospectively designed study from 330 hospitalized older adults age 70+. Patients reported prehospitalization frequency, duration, and timing of basic activities of daily living and leisure activities at hospital admission. Hospital routine was assessed on day of discharge. Results indicated that frequency and duration of most basic activities decreased during hospitalization; the sharpest decrease was in frequency of getting dressed. Showering occurred 2 h earlier in the hospital setting, and getting dressed occurred an hour and a half later. For dependent respondents, the greatest change was in duration; for independent respondents, the greatest change was in frequency. Given the importance of routine maintenance to health and well-being, understanding the dynamics of its disruption in the hospital setting is imperative.
