The results of a systematic review (Gebhard, 2016), workshops with nursing staff (Gebhard & Schmid, 2018), and interviews with institutionalized people with dementia (Gebhard & Mir, 2021) were merged through a convergence coding matrix (Farmer, Robinson, Elliott, & Eyles, 2006). During the 3-hr workshop, hindrances and facilitating factors for successfully implementing physical activity programs in nursing homes were discussed by 32 nurses in five groups.…”
