“…The healthcare providers associated the room of closeness with good care, where the patient was seen and appreciated, which is in line with previous research Dewar & Nolan, 2013;Magnussen et al, 2017). The unique aspect of this study is that nature, via the sensory garden, is a vital component for developing new knowledge for improving practice and for changing culture.…”

“…The discovery and development of new knowledge, such as the room of closeness, resulted in a turning point for healthcare providers, and caring became both visible and important, as described in depth in previous studies of this research programme (Magnussen et al, 2016(Magnussen et al, , 2017. The healthcare providers gradually dared to try out new knowledge, such as when Turid brought the bird book and Beate sang with the patient.…”

“…(2) trying out new knowledge of the room of closeness; (3) workshops; and (4) developing knowledge of the room of closeness. Three workshops were planned and implemented in collaboration with participants, and they followed and supported the development of the interventions, which is described in a previous study (Magnussen et al, 2017). The healthcare providers took part in groupwork and took charge of role-playing, which demonstrated previous, present, and desired situations in daily care.…”

“…Value is appraised by new knowledge; however, the changes have been based on participants' voices and equality in power structures related to education and position (Balbale, Locatelli, & LaVela, 2016). Appreciative inquiry (AI) has the potential to mobilize healthcare providers' intentions and joint involvement in developing knowledge of sensory gardens in a nursing home setting (Magnussen, Bondas, & Alteren, 2016), and to present a unique opportunity for finding new insights in collaboration with healthcare providers, such as creating "the room of closeness" (Magnussen, Bondas, & Alteren, 2017).…”

“…Participation in AI has shown that new knowledge occurs through interaction with participants, as the researcher cannot create an AI alone (Magnussen et al, 2016(Magnussen et al, , 2017. AR's results in relation to process and participation often appear to be linked to concrete actions and described as "before and after" (Nyman, Bondas, Downe, & Berg, 2013), while the "path" that participants have taken appears to be less studied.…”

Purpose: Appreciative inquiry (AI) studies have proven to be useful in developing nursing knowledge and changing nursing practice. However, few AI studies have examined the meaning of participation over time among collaborating healthcare providers. Our aim was to explore and illuminate healthcare providers’ participation over time in a Norwegian nursing home to develop new knowledge and practice, focusing on sensory gardens. Method: Twenty healthcare providers participated in the 3 year AI study. Data were collected in fieldwork, interviews, and interventions. Saldañas’ longitudinal analysis was applied. Results: The collaboration between the researcher and participants created insight of a relational room, which was named “the room of closeness”. Participants’ search for new arenas to apply the meaning of the room of closeness was found when focusing on the sensory garden. Their desire for joint development created a bottom–up perspective, the hallmark of successful AI. Conclusion: Knowledge of participants’ experiences may contribute to developing AI as a useful and transferable method, especially regarding co-creating participation, and may have implications for research and society. AI’s strength-based approach may, however, lead to the neglect of data that are associated with problems, and complicate the assessment of success. Further research is therefore needed to develop AI.

The nursing home as a hub: boundary work as a key to community health promotion

Summary This article considers ways in which a nursing home can come to serve as a hub for community health promotion. Inspired by the term ‘boundary crossing’ (Akkerman and Bakker. Boundary crossing and boundary objects. Rev Educ Res 2011;81:132–69), we suggest the notion of ‘boundary work’ to illustrate how a nursing home arranges community activities and includes a wide range of participants. In health research, a ‘hub’ refers to a space in which activities and expertise are ‘bound together’ over time. The concept of the hub indicates that health organizations have the power to become centres for health promotion by initiating new collaborations and opening up initiatives in two-way processes with the local community. The term ‘boundary work’ supports a perspective that dissolves organizational, professional and conceptual boundaries and directs attention towards social inclusion as a key to community health promotion in and beyond institutionalized elderly care. The article is based on a 4-year-long practice-based study of social innovation in elderly care in Norway and Denmark. Empirical illustrations show boundary work in which a nursing home comes to serve as a hub. We discuss a flexible framework for understanding, mapping and planning participatory approaches for health and wellbeing (South et al. An evidence-based framework on community-centred approaches for health: England, UK. Health Promot Int 2019;34:356–66) and briefly connect these approaches to the concept of social innovation as a possible future research path.

“Trapped in an Empty Waiting Room”—The Existential Human Core of Loneliness in Old Age: A Meta-Synthesis

et al. 2017

Loneliness in old age has a negative influence on quality of life, health, and survival. To understand the phenomenon of loneliness in old age, the voices of lonely older adults should be heard. Therefore, the purpose of this meta-synthesis was to synthesize scientific studies of older adults' experiences of loneliness. Eleven qualitative articles that met the inclusion criteria were analyzed and synthesized according to Noblit and Hare's meta-ethnographic approach. The analysis revealed the overriding meaning of the existential human core of loneliness in old age expressed through the metaphor "trapped in an empty waiting room." Four interwoven themes were found: (a) the negative emotions of loneliness, (b) the loss of meaningful interpersonal relationships, (c) the influence of loneliness on self-perception, and (d) the older adults' endeavors to deal with loneliness. The joint contribution of family members, health care providers, and volunteers is necessary to break the vicious circle of loneliness.
