Supporting Aged Care Worker Wellbeing
Aged care work is physically and emotionally demanding. Workers can feel disempowered, vulnerable and at increased risk of experiencing work‐related stress. This in turn can result in sub‐optimal care and staff shortages. This study aimed to investigate what provisions exist within Australia's strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards to support aged care worker safety and wellbeing. Document analysis was conducted on the new Aged Care Quality Sta…
Co‐Producing a Patient Reported Experience Measure (PREM) With and for People With Intellectual Disability
BACKGROUND: Patient reported experience measures (PREMs) are widely used as key indicators of value in healthcare towards improved services but are rarely applied among people with intellectual disability. Incorporating the experiences of people with intellectual disability in PREMs data is vital as this group often encounter poor healthcare access and outcomes. This study reports the coproduction of accessible PREMs for people with intellectual …
Care My Way
BACKGROUND: For many individuals, living with cancer means having a chronic and complex health condition that requires well-coordinated care between primary and specialist settings. Continuity of care is often compromised by lack of shared information between providers about a person's circumstances, communication support needs, health information or cultural requirements. This project aimed to use co-design with people from culturally and lingui…
Co‐Producing Patient‐Reported Experience Measures With People With Intellectual Disability to Improve Healthcare Quality and Outcomes
INTRODUCTION: Intellectual disability, defined by significant limitations in both intellectual functioning and adaptive behaviour with onset during the developmental period, affects an estimated 2% (108 million) of people worldwide. People with intellectual disability experience major health inequity, poor health outcomes and premature deaths, with mortality rates that are 7-12 times higher than the general population. Patient-reported experience…
Outpatient Virtual Care Among People Living With and Beyond Cancer From Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Backgrounds in Australia
BACKGROUND: Virtual care is increasingly being used to deliver outpatient cancer services, yet people from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds can experience inequities in accessing these services. A range of complex and context-specific factors impact the effectiveness of virtual care and equity in its use and outcomes. This study draws on the methodological principles of realist evaluation to provide contextual understandin…
Patient Safety Events Among People from Ethnic Minority Backgrounds
Patient safety events in cancer care occur frequently among patients from ethnic minority backgrounds. Unsafe cancer care for this population is associated with inadequate use of interpreters, lack of shared understanding and expectations of care processes linked to cultural and linguistic barriers. Approaches to enhance engagement are required
Employing cofacilitation to balance power and priorities during health service codesign
Applications of co-design and related participatory approaches endeavour to democratise the process and product of health service research and improvement efforts. As a group of methods that are ground in a user-centric, participatory approach, co-design is valued for supporting people with lived experiences of a health condition or service to have their voices heard and acted upon via their contributions to co-design activitiesThis article is pr…
Adapting a Preparatory Skills‐Building Programme for Carers of People With Cancer Through Co‐Design
INTRODUCTION: Health services rely upon carers to provide care for loved ones with cancer, yet many carers often feel ill-prepared for this role. Despite a multitude of programmes to support carer mental health, programmes that help carers feel better equipped to support a person with cancer are lacking. This study aimed to address this need by adapting an evidence-based intervention to be suitable for carers of people with cancer. METHODS: This …
Creating safer cancer care with ethnic minority patients
INTRODUCTION: Effective consumer engagement practices can enhance patient safety. This is important for consumers from ethnic minority backgrounds who are exposed to increased risk of patient safety events. Using the Systems Engineering Initiative for Patient Safety model, this study explored staff experiences of creating opportunities for engagement with consumers from ethnic minority backgrounds to contribute to their cancer care safety. METHOD…
Engaging With Health Consumers in Scientific Conferences—As Partners not Bystanders
INTRODUCTION: It is now widely recognised that engaging consumers in research activities can enhance the quality, equity and relevance of the research. Much of the commentary about consumer engagement in research focuses on research processes and implementation, rather than dissemination in conference settings. This article offers reflections and learnings from consumers, researchers and conference organisers on the 12th Health Services Research …
Assessing the environment for engagement in health services
INTRODUCTION: Although it is widely accepted that the physical environment can impact health quality and care outcomes, its impact on consumer engagement with health services has not been examined. Currently, no tools exist that assess the opportunities for consumer engagement offered within the physical environment. We aimed to develop and validate an environmental audit tool to assist health services and researchers to assess the extent to whic…
