■COVID-19感染预防措施会对疗养院居民的福祉产生负面影响。社会一直关注预防感染与居民福祉之间的不平衡,以及养老院居民在COVID-19政策制定中的自主权。
这项研究探讨了疗养院工作人员在COVID-19爆发期间哪些措施对预防感染和维护居民福祉最重要的共识。此外,本研究探讨了有关COVID-19措施的决策过程以及居民或其代表的参与。
■基于在线标称组技术的混合方法。
■荷兰养老院,2020年6月-11月。
■经理,政策顾问,老年护理医生,心理学家,一个精神顾问,护士,护理助理,和居民代表(N=35)。
■从预防感染的角度来看,四个小组,从幸福感的角度进行了四个小组,每个小组有3至7名参与者。参与者单独选择他们认为最重要的措施,在网上谈话中一起讨论了这些措施,并以5分利克特量表对这些措施在COVID-19疫情期间的重要性和紧迫性进行评估。被该小组所有成员评为(非常)重要和(非常)紧迫的措施被定义为“协商一致优先”。小组还讨论了有关COVID-19措施的决策过程以及居民或其代表的参与。这些对话被逐字转录,并使用归纳法进行主题编码。
■感染预防小组优先考虑隔离措施;测试措施;测试和隔离组合;在(疑似)受感染居民周围使用个人防护设备;以及COVID-19爆发团队为爆发疫情做准备。福祉小组优先考虑队列隔离,测试与队列隔离和居民房间隔离相结合,访客禁令的例外,最大数量的游客,以及居民房间的登记和陪同访客。居民代表和工作人员对他们在新冠肺炎大流行的头几个月减少参与政策制定感到不满,尽管他们明白必须迅速做出决定。
■工作人员和驻地代表应参与COVID-19政策制定。据他们说,COVID-19的优先措施应包括:队列隔离,测试和隔离组合,使用个人防护设备,COVID-19爆发团队的危机管理,和养老院访问规则和访客指导。结合这些措施可能是迈向COVID-19一揽子措施的第一步,这些措施可以更好地平衡感染预防和维护居民的福祉。

UNASSIGNED: COVID-19 infection prevention measures can negatively impact nursing home residents\' well-being. Society has been concerned about the imbalance between infection prevention and residents\' well-being, and about nursing home residents\' autonomy in COVID-19 policymaking.
UNASSIGNED: This study explores
consensus among nursing home staff about which measures they found to be most important in contributing to preventing infections and to maintaining well-being of residents during COVID-19 outbreaks. In addition, this study explores the decision-making processes regarding COVID-19 measures and the involvement of residents or their representatives.
UNASSIGNED: Mixed methods based on an online nominal group technique.
UNASSIGNED: Dutch nursing homes, June-November 2020.
UNASSIGNED: Managers, policy advisors, elderly care physicians, psychologists, a spiritual counselor, nurses, care assistants, and resident representatives (N = 35).
UNASSIGNED: Four panels from the viewpoint of infection prevention, and four panels from the viewpoint of well-being were performed with 3 to 7 participants per panel. Participants individually selected the measure they found most important, discussed these measures together in an online conversation, and rated the importance and urgency of these measures during COVID-19 outbreaks on a 5-point Likert scale. The measures that were rated as (very) important and (very) urgent by all members of that panel were defined as \'prioritized in
consensus\'. Panels also discussed the decision-making process regarding COVID-19 measures and the involvement of residents or their representatives. These conversations were transcribed verbatim and thematically coded using an inductive approach.
UNASSIGNED: The infection prevention panels prioritized isolation measures; testing measures; testing and isolation combinations; use of personal protective equipment around (suspected) infected residents; and preparation for outbreaks by COVID-19 outbreak teams. The well-being panels prioritized cohort isolation, testing combined with cohort isolation and with isolation in residents\' rooms, exceptions to visitor bans, maximum numbers of visitors, and registration and accompanying visitors to the residents\' rooms. Resident representatives and staff were dissatisfied with their reduced involvement in policy making during the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic, although they understood that decisions had to be made quickly.
UNASSIGNED: Staff and resident representatives should be involved in COVID-19 policy making. According to them, priority COVID-19 measures should include: cohort isolation, testing and isolation combinations, use of personal protective equipment, crisis management by COVID-19 outbreak teams, and nursing home visit regulations and instruction of visitors. Combining these measures may be a first step towards packages of COVID-19 measures that better balance infection prevention and maintaining residents\' well-being.
UNASSIGNED: N/A.
UNASSIGNED: Priority COVID-19 nursing home measures are isolation, testing, testing and isolation combinations, PPE use, preparations by outbreak teams, and visit regulations @wilcoachterberg.
