“…Another aspect to consider is the specialization of Family and Community Nurses, whom we see in the study obtaining better results at this level of knowledge, which could reflect their training during their residency [ 52 , 57 , 58 ]. Regarding the training of specialist nurses, it should be taken into account that among the learning outcomes of care for older people is found in the curriculum of the training of specialist nurses the “Plan, implement and coordinate jointly with other professionals and specialists in palliative care programs”.…”

“…Regarding the training of specialist nurses, it should be taken into account that among the learning outcomes of care for older people is found in the curriculum of the training of specialist nurses the “Plan, implement and coordinate jointly with other professionals and specialists in palliative care programs”. However, not all specialist nurses have rotated through specific palliative care units [ 58 ]. As occurs with medical professionals, the family and community nurse specialist presents a global vision of the person and the community, with transversal care in different areas and allowing, among other things, comprehensive and continuous care based on empathy, favoring the early detection of palliative needs, the adequacy of treatments and resources, effective communication, the best resolution of ethical conflicts, and, above all, more effective and efficient control of symptoms [ 59 , 60 ].…”

Objective: To analyze the knowledge in palliative care and the attitudes toward caring for the dying of nurses who carry out their professional activity in primary care in Spain. Design: A cross-sectional descriptive observational study was carried out among Spanish primary care centers. Participants: A total of 244 nurses who had completed their primary care work and agreed to participate in this study were included. Main measurements: The level of knowledge in palliative care was analyzed using the PCQN-SV scale, and attitudes toward care of the dying were measured with the FATCOD-S scale, both of which are instruments that are validated in Spain. Results: Regarding the level of knowledge in palliative care, at a global level, the results revealed that 60% of the answers in the PCQN-SV were correct, with different results for each of the three subscales that compose it. When analyzing the attitudes of primary care nurses toward the care of the dying, an average of 132.21 out of 150 was obtained, representing a positive attitude. On the other hand, when analyzing these results in terms of knowledge and attitudes according to the population’s characteristics, we see that participants with both experience and training in palliative care present a better level of knowledge and a higher score regarding their attitudes toward care of the dying. However, the differences are only significant regarding the level of knowledge in palliative care. When analyzing the data from the two scales together, it is noteworthy that the participants with the most positive attitudes (highest scores on the FATCOD-S) also have the highest percentages of correct answers on the PCQN-SV.

Home Health Care Management & Practice

Changes in society’s needs have increased individuals’ desire to be independent and receive health care at home. Home health care (HHC) is one of the main components of realizing these ambitions. However, there is a serious concern about the state of development of the HHC industry in Iran and the quality of its services. This study aims to explore the barriers to the development of HHC in Iran. This qualitative study with a conventional content analysis approach was conducted in Tabriz, Iran, from October 2019 to March 2020. Twenty-one key stakeholders including nurses, home health directors, physicians, policy-makers, patients, and their families participated in the study. Participants were selected using purposive sampling. Data were collected using a focus group discussion (FGD) and 18 semi-structured in-depth interviews and analyzed using Graneheim and Lundman’s techniques. Data collection continued until saturation was reached. Three main themes emerged from the analysis: quality management challenges, insufficient infrastructure and policy, and political issues. The findings show that applying standard strategies to monitor the quality of services, paying attention to infrastructure, and having a clear framework for policy-making are beneficial for the development of the HHC industry. Health managers can monitor and upgrade the quality of HHC services by defining standards and assessment indicators, as well as providing comprehensive data. It is suggested that legislators consider the principles of community-based accountability, justice, and accessibility their top priority. Moreover, policymakers need to develop a roadmap to reform policies to create the conditions for the development of this industry.

“…While there was some variation in survey participants' prioritization of payment and documentation issues that were specific to their unique health care delivery systems (Cabin, 2015;Lustbader, et al, 2017), many common and cross-cutting themes emerged. For example, participants universally described a need for home care specific education and expanding the evidence-base to support home care nursing (Campbell-Yeo, et al, 2014;Dodzo & Mhloyi, 2017;Oltra-Rodríguez, et. al., 2017;Ploeg, et al, 2017).…”

Background: Despite growing demand for home care nursing, there is a growing home care workforce shortage, due in part to hospital-centric nursing curricula that lead students to undervalue of home care and community practice setting (Van Iersel, et al., 2018a, 2018b.Objectives: Articulate an international vision for the future of home care education, research, practice, and management shared by experienced home care nurses working in leadership roles.Design: Qualitative content analysis. Settings and Participants:The sample included 50 home care professionals from 17 countries.Methods: Home care nurse leaders (in education, research, practice, and management roles) were recruited through professional international nursing networks to participate in a structured online survey about priorities for the future of home care in 2014. Responses were open coded by two independent researchers. Preliminary categories and sub-themes were developed by the research team and revised after a modified member-checking process that included presentation and discussion of preliminary findings at three international nursing meetings in 2015 and 2016.Results: Four major themes emerged reflecting international priorities for the future of home care education, research, practice, and management: 1) Build the evidence base for home care; 2) Design better systems of care; 3) Develop leaders at all levels; and 4) Address payment and policy issues.
