“…SW is a domain of job demand examined in the present study, which referred to ‘frequency of working shifts longer than 8 hours, and frequency of working double shifts’ (Burke, 2003). In general, the results are in line with previous studies that negatively associated SW with nurses' satisfaction (e.g., Khatib, Hamdan‐Mansour, & BaniHani, 2017; Moradi et al, 2014). Dall'Ora, Griffiths, Ball, Simon, and Aiken (2015) studied job satisfaction in relation to SW hours and revealed that registered nurses working shifts of 12 hr or longer were more likely to report job dissatisfaction, intention to leave their job and to experience burnout.…”

Background Job demand and job satisfaction in nursing profession have been identified as significant indicators of quality of nursing care. Job demand is the most influential job stressor and has been connected to negative consequences on nurses' ability to function. Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine the moderating effect of work locus of control on the relationship between job demand and job satisfaction among nurses working at public hospitals. Methods A quantitative, cross‐sectional, correlational design was utilized to randomly recruit 427 registered nurses working at two major public hospitals. Data were collected using a self‐administered questionnaire regarding job demand, job satisfaction and work locus of control. Results Work locus of control had a significant moderating effect on the relationship between job demand and satisfaction. External locus of control had a negative effect on the job demand and job satisfaction relationship, whereas internal locus of control positively buffered this correlation. Conclusion This study adds a novel contribution to the body of knowledge that buffering effect of job demand among nurses is much dependent on appropriately enhancing internal locus of control, consequently improving job satisfaction.

“…Healthcare providers’ greater knowledge and understanding of the patient’s situation and of what has been done by their counterparts in other fields, resulting from appropriate interprofessional communication, will improve the quality of transitional care received by older adults hospitalized following a fall [ 9 , 35 , 39 ] and decrease their risk of further hospitalization [ 9 , 36 ]. Conversely, unnecessary hospitalizations and increased mortality and dependency are outcomes that result from a paucity of communication between healthcare providers [ 53 ]. It has been found that standardized communication between healthcare providers and improved quality of discharge information led to better identification of older patients at risk of falls [ 47 ].…”

“…Many studies agree that integration and coordination of healthcare should take place throughout the process, from patient admission to discharge home [ 35 , 36 , 40 , 51 ], and during the follow-up process [ 36 ]. However, in many healthcare systems, providers still lack the time and resources to coordinate the care and discharge of older patients effectively [ 35 , 53 ].…”

Understanding the positive outcomes of discharge planning interventions for older adults hospitalized following a fall: a realist synthesis

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background Older adults hospitalized following a fall often encounter preventable adverse events when transitioning from hospital to home. Discharge planning interventions developed to prevent these events do not all produce the expected effects to the same extent. This realist synthesis aimed to better understand when, where, for whom, why and how the components of these interventions produce positive outcomes. Methods Nine indexed databases were searched to identify scientific papers and grey literature on discharge planning interventions for older adults (65+) hospitalized following a fall. Manual searches were also conducted. Documents were selected based on relevance and rigor. Two reviewers extracted and compiled data regarding intervention components, contextual factors, underlying mechanisms and positive outcomes. Preliminary theories were then formulated based on an iterative synthesis process. Results Twenty-one documents were included in the synthesis. Four Intervention-Context-Mechanism-Outcome configurations were developed as preliminary theories, based on the following intervention components: 1) Increase two-way communication between healthcare providers and patients/caregivers using a family-centered approach; 2) Foster interprofessional communication within and across healthcare settings through both standardized and unofficial information exchange; 3) Provide patients/caregivers with individually tailored fall prevention education; and 4) Designate a coordinator to manage discharge planning. These components should be implemented from patient admission to return home and be supported at the organizational level (contexts) to trigger knowledge, understanding and trust of patients/caregivers, adjusted expectations, reduced family stress, and sustained engagement of families and professionals (mechanisms). These optimal conditions improve patient satisfaction, recovery, functional status and continuity of care, and reduce hospital readmissions and fall risk (outcomes). Conclusions Since transitions are critical points with potential communication gaps, coordinated interventions are vital to support a safe return home for older adults hospitalized following a fall. Considering the organizational challenges, simple tools such as pictograms and drawings, combined with computer-based communication channels, may optimize discharge interventions based on frail patients’ needs, habits and values. Empirically testing our preliminary theories will help to develop effective interventions throughout the continuum of transitional care to enhance patients’ health and reduce the economic burden of avoidable care.

Purpose Partnership is both a goal and an approach to family-centered care (FCC). Family members play an important role alongside the health-care team when an older family member is admitted to the hospital. Family involvement in care for an older person forms a partnership approach where health professionals and the family engage collaboratively in care. This enhances the quality of care and family satisfaction with care. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the potential areas of partnerships of family members with health-care professionals while caring for older people based on the perspective of FCC. Design/methodology/approach A literature review was carried out. Findings The findings of this study focus on how healthcare professionals can listen to, respect the perspectives of family members, and share useful information with the family while caring for an older person. Family participation in providing care and collaboration between healthcare professionals and families is a seminal goal strategy in caring for older people during hospitalization. It is helpful to family members as a way of training and preparing them to assist their loved one after hospital discharge. Furthermore, it can establish a good relationship between healthcare professionals and families. Originality/value Partnership between health-care professionals and families helps and supports the older people and the family in managing the health condition the following discharge from the hospital.
