The influence of contextual factors on an intervention for people with disabilities from support persons' and health personnel's perspectives: a focus group study.

Introduction: Contextual factors influence interventions in healthcare and pose a particular challenge in interventions designed for people with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities (PIMD). Exploring support persons' and health personnel's experience of an intervention may improve our understanding of the influence of contextual factors. Such exploration is important for revealing areas and focus points for future implementations.

Navigating change - managers' experience of implementation processes in disability health care: a qualitative study.

Background: Effective implementation processes play a central role in health care organizations and affect the care of patients. Managers are pivotal in facilitating the use of new practices, but their experience and how it affects the implementation outcome are still largely unknown. In the field of disability health care in particular, managers experiences have scarcely been investigated.

Structured Water Dance Intervention (SWAN) for adults with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities: study protocol.

Background: People with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities (PIMD) have a combination of severe intellectual disability, extensive physical impairment, sensory impairments and medical health problems. There is, however, a lack of evidence-based physical and health-promoting interventions for people with PIMD.

Objective: Structured Water Dance Intervention (SWAN) is a new method developed to fill this gap.
