Application of the European quality indicators for psychosocial dementia care in long-term care facilities in the Asia-Pacific region: a pilot study

Abstract: Several items in the European QIs in the current format were deemed problematic when used to measure the quality of psychosocial care in the residential aged care settings in participating Asia-Pacific countries. We propose refinements of the European QIs for the Asian-Pacific context, taking into account multiple factors identified in this study. Our findings provide crucial insights for future research and implementation of psychosocial dementia care QIs in this region.

“…The search yielded 7704 articles plus 687 records retrieved from the additional search and grey literatures, of which 56 articles were identified eligible for full-text screening after the removal of duplicates and review of titles and abstracts. Of these, 10 articles [ 16 , 18 21 , 30 34 ] were included in this study for data extraction and synthesis, 6 of which were identified manually by authors ( Fig 1 ). For 90% of included studies, the primary aim was to assess acceptability of QIs transferred from one country to another with an intermediate or direct-adoption process, and one study [ 32 ] was conducted to assess quality of care by operationalizing QIs locally (Table 2).…”

“…Several studies adapted ACOVE QIs for local use in the UK and Netherlands with an approval rate (# of original QIs to # of proposed QIs in the adaptation) varying from 56–86% [ 16 , 18 , 19 ]. Further, there also have been examples in which QIs developed in one jurisdiction were used in another region without adaptation under a direct-adoption process [ 20 , 21 ]. An expert panel from England rated 79 of 93 chosen ACOVE QIs as valid for local use without any amendment [ 18 ].…”

“…Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a neuro-degenerative disorder that causes a loss of connections between neurons mainly due to early deterioration of cerebral circuitry in the form of the most common situation of dementia that affects the older [18,19]. According to Jeon et al, [20], AD and dementia is ultimately fatal and is an increasingly significant health problem affecting older adults across the globe. Memory disorder-related disorders have broadly different effects between the individual, increasingly persistent and neuro-degenerative brain that can destroy the mental capacity to recall, such as difficulties contributing to cognitive functional disability [12,20].…”

“…According to Jeon et al, [20], AD and dementia is ultimately fatal and is an increasingly significant health problem affecting older adults across the globe. Memory disorder-related disorders have broadly different effects between the individual, increasingly persistent and neuro-degenerative brain that can destroy the mental capacity to recall, such as difficulties contributing to cognitive functional disability [12,20]. For starters, patients will experience difficulties with their everyday lives and routine having difficulty saying what is in their heads, challenging to solve a basic problem and quickly lose disposition rather than the most common symptom of memory loss [17].…”

“…However, there may be specific barriers to the implementation of psychosocial interventions in daily practice (21,22). The programme implementation in Japan also requires cultural adaptation and appropriateness because of possible differences between European and Asian contexts in dementia care (23,24). It is therefore highly important to understand both the barriers and facilitators associated with implementing the adapted programme.…”
