Embedding Multiperspective Reflections in Co‐Producing a Training Intervention for Care Home Staff
BACKGROUND: Co-production can be used to develop research, resources or interventions that are relevant for the groups they are co-produced with. We co-produced a training intervention to improve personal care assistance for people with dementia living in care homes. We aimed to reflect on the process to learn more about the co-production journeys of all group members and impacts. METHODS: A co-production group comprised of five care home staff, …
Does carer psychological inflexibility moderate the relationship between Motor Neurone Disease symptomatology and carer anticipatory grief emotions
Anticipatory grief (AG) in family carers of people living with motor neurone disease (MND) is underexplored. Research has identified MND symptoms as significant predictors of AG in carers. This study investigated whether carer psychological inflexibility moderates the relationship between MND symptoms and carer AG, a crucial area for informing supportive interventions. Two moderation analyses with 75 carers (UK = 70, USA = 5) were conducted. The …
Factors associated with grief in informal carers of people living with Motor Neuron Disease
Caring for people with dementia in their own homes
Little is known about risk management in homecare for people with dementia. We aimed to gain an understanding of the ways in which homecare workers assess and manage risk whilst caring for people with dementia in their own homes. We conducted a qualitative interview study with 17 homecare workers assisting people with dementia with their personal care. Interviews were face-to-face, semi-structured, recorded and transcribed verbatim. Analysis was …
Disjunctures in practice
Organisational priorities for health care focus on efficiency as the health and care needs of populations increase. But evidence suggests that excessive planning can be counterproductive, leading to resistance from staff and patients, particularly those living with cognitive impairment. The current paper adds to this debate reporting an Institutional Ethnography of staff delivering care for older patients with cognitive impairment on acute orthop…
Risks and risk mitigation in homecare for people with dementia—A two‐sided matter
Home‐care workers' experiences of assisting people with dementia with their personal care
Home-care workers are increasingly caring for clients living with dementia. Workers usually have limited dementia training and are low paid and often lone working. Little is known about how home-care workers assist people with dementia with their personal care. We aimed to explore the experiences of home-care workers and the knowledge and skills they rely on when providing personal care to people with dementia. In 2020, we conducted 17 semi-struc…
Making body work sequences visible
Within health and social care, academic attention is increasingly paid to understanding the nature and centrality of body work. Relatively little is known about how and where body work specifically fits into the wider work relations that produce it in healthcare settings. We draw on ethnographic observations of staff practice in three National Health Service acute hospital wards in the United Kingdom to make visible the micro-processes of patient…
Questionable practices despite good intentions
Care-home residents with dementia can experience behavioural and psychological symptoms such as aggression, agitation, anxiety, wandering, calling out and sexual disinhibition. Care-home staff have a duty to keep residents safe. However, residents with dementia can pose particular challenges in this area. In this paper, we draw on a study which explored how care-home staff manage dementia-related behaviours. In-depth ethnographic case studies at …
