Students' experiences with a hybrid learning environment in nursing homes: A qualitative study.

Aim: The aim of this study is to explore how students experience learning in a hybrid learning environment in a nursing home setting and their perceptions of relationship-centred care.

Background: Nursing homes are undergoing a culture shift from task-centred care to person- and relationship-centred care, requiring a different approach to how nursing home staff work and are educated. Hybrid learning environments aim to educate professionals who continuously work on their professional development by integrating and merging learning and working to facilitate the culture shift.

How Stories Can Contribute Toward Quality Improvement in Long-Term Care.

It is important to evaluate how residents, their significant others, and professional caregivers experience life in a nursing home to improve quality of care based on their needs and wishes. Narratives are a promising method to assess this experienced quality of care as they enable a rich understanding, reflection, and learning. In the Netherlands, narratives are becoming a more substantial element within the quality improvement cycle of nursing homes.

Text mining in long-term care: Exploring the usefulness of artificial intelligence in a nursing home setting.

Objectives: In nursing homes, narrative data are collected to evaluate quality of care as perceived by residents or their family members. This results in a large amount of textual data. However, as the volume of data increases, it becomes beyond the capability of humans to analyze it.

Listen, look, link and learn: a stepwise approach to use narrative quality data within resident-family-nursing staff triads in nursing homes for quality improvements.

Purpose: The use of qualitative data to assess quality of care in nursing homes from the resident's perspective has shown to be valuable, yet more research is needed to determine how this data can be used to gain insight into the quality of care within nursing homes. Whereas it is crucial to stay close to the stories that are the strength of qualitative data, an intermittent step to classify this data can support the interpretation and use. Therefore, this study introduces an approach that enables the use of narrative quality of care data to learn from and improve with.

The Feasibility of Connecting Conversations: A Narrative Method to Assess Experienced Quality of Care in Nursing Homes from the Resident's Perspective.

Currently, residents living in nursing homes and their caring relationships are being placed more centrally in the care experience. Experienced quality of care is influenced by the interactions between residents, family and caregivers, who each have their own experiences and needs. Connecting Conversations is a narrative method aimed at assessing experienced quality of care in nursing homes from the resident's perspective by having separate conversations with residents, family and caregivers (triads), adopting an appreciative inquiry approach.

The Validity of Connecting Conversations: A Narrative Method to Assess Experienced Quality of Care in Nursing Homes from the Resident's Perspective.

It is important to assess experienced quality of care in nursing homes, as this portrays what is important to residents and helps identify what quality improvements should focus on. Connecting Conversations is a narrative method that assesses experienced quality of care from the resident's perspective in nursing homes by having separate conversations with residents, family, and professional caregivers (triads) within a learning network. This study assessed the validity of performing the narrative method, Connecting Conversations.

Themes Related to Experienced Quality of Care in Nursing Homes From the Resident's Perspective: A Systematic Literature Review and Thematic Synthesis.

The culture change from task-centered care to person- and relationship-centered care has resulted in the resident's voice gaining importance when assessing experienced quality of care in nursing homes. This review aimed to identify which factors contribute to experienced quality of care in nursing homes worldwide from the resident's perspective. A systematic literature review and thematic data synthesis were performed.

How to assess experienced quality of care in nursing homes from the client's perspective: results of a qualitative study.

Background: The culture shift in nursing homes from task-oriented to person-centered care has created a need to assess clients' experienced quality of care (QoC), as this corresponds best with what matters to them. This study aimed to gain insight into how to assess experienced QoC in nursing homes from the client's perspective.

Method: A qualitative study was performed consisting of a focus group with client representatives (n = 10), a focus group with nursing home staff (n = 9) and a world café with client representatives and staff recruited from the Living Lab in Ageing & Long-Term Care (n = 24).

Experienced Quality of Post-Acute and Long-Term Care From the Care Recipient's Perspective-A Conceptual Framework.

This article aims to conceptualize experienced quality of post-acute and long-term care for older people as perceived by care recipients. An iterative literature review and consultations with stakeholders led to the development of the INDividually Experienced QUAlity of Long-term care (INDEXQUAL) framework. INDEXQUAL presents the process of an individual care experience consisting of a pre (expectations), during (experiences), and post (assessment) phase.

A Network Meta-Analysis of Long-Acting Muscarinic Antagonist (LAMA) and Long-Acting β-Agonist (LABA) Combinations in COPD.

Introduction: Comparative data on the efficacies of long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) and long-acting β-agonist (LABA) combinations for the treatment of moderate-to-very-severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are limited. The aim of this Bayesian network meta-analysis (NMA) is to assess the relative efficacies of available open combinations (delivered via separate inhalers) and fixed-dose combinations (FDCs, delivered via a single inhaler).

Methods: We conducted a systematic literature review with the aim of identifying randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of ≥8-week duration in adults aged ≥40 years with COPD that compared LAMA + LABA combinations with each other, with tiotropium (TIO), or with placebo.
