Abstract:
This column describes a quasi-experimental trial that examined the effects of an intervention in which both nurses and nursing assistants shared their perceptions of the nursing assistant role on the frequency of information-sharing behaviors. In the intervention group, the frequency of nurses' linguistic responses in the intervention group increased in the nursing assistants' evaluations. The frequency of nursing assistants' linguistic response and feedback in the intervention group increased in self-evaluation and nurses' evaluation, respectively.

Abstract Introduction To maintain the healthcare delivery system in Japan, which is super-aged society, it is necessary to utilize unlicensed personnel as nursing assistants. However, there are few applicants for nursing assistants, and many hospitals have vacancies. We need to understand the difficulties they face in their job. Methods We examined job-related difficulties for nursing assistants by age and hospital type. We conducted a web-based survey of nursing assistants working in Japanese all hospitals in 2019. We asked the hospital nursing directors to select a nursing assistant randomly and to give a letter of request to the nursing assistant. This study was approved by the Research Ethics Review Board. Results and discussion Valid responses were obtained from 1,337 (16.0%) nursing assistants. Harassment from patients (32% on average, 40% in their 20s) and harassment from multiple professions other than nursing (9% on average, 16% in their 20s) were more common among those in their 20s. Harassment by patients was more common in long-term inpatient hospitals and psychiatric hospitals (32% on average, 36% in long-term inpatient hospitals, 51% in psychiatric hospitals). When crossed with the selection of “anti-harassment measures” by their hospital to keep working, 31% of those who answered they were harassed by patients, expected the measures. In long-term inpatient hospitals, the percentage of dementia patients are high, and psychiatric hospitals, it was thought that young nursing assistants were not coping well and had given up on the situation as something that could not be helped and quit their job. Conclusion Training and support systems for nursing assistants are needed.

Abstract:
ABSTRACTBackground:Although physicians are responsible for writing the antipsychotic prescriptions for patients with dementia, the initiative is often taken by nurses or nursing assistants. To reduce antipsychotics uses, one needs to understand the reasons for nurses and nursing assistants to request them. This study gives an overview of the influencing factors for this request based on the Theory of Planned Behavior in which attitude, beliefs, and behavioral control is thought to influence the intention to request, which in turn affects the behavior to request for a prescription.Methods:Eighty-one nurses and nursing assistants of one Dutch nursing home organization completed an online survey.Results:Nurses and nursing assistants frequently agreed on items related to the positive effects of antipsychotics for the resident and for the staff. Nurses and nursing assistants with a lower job satisfaction were more likely to call for antipsychotics. Having more positive beliefs about treatment effects and feel of being more in control toward asking for antipsychotics were positively associated with intention to call. All variables explained 59% of the variance of intention. The current position (nurse/nursing assistant) was associated with actual behavior to call. The explained variance was 25%.Conclusions:Policy-makers should focus on the nurses’ and nursing assistants’ belief in positive effects of antipsychotics for the resident, which is not in line with available evidence. Nurses and nursing assistants should be educated about the limited effectiveness of antipsychotics.

Abstract:
Abstract Nursing assistants often experience high rates of turnover and burnout, which may lead to poor resident care outcomes and quality of life, as well as continued staff shortages and increased workload for nursing assistants. This study examined personality correlates of burnout and compassion satisfaction among 100 nursing assistants employed as nursing assistants in long-term care (LTC) and hospitals throughout the United States. Participants completed the Professional Quality of Life Scale 5 (ProQOL 5) and the Big Five Inventory – 2 Short (BFI-2-S). There was a significant positive correlation between compassion satisfaction and agreeableness, and extraversion, and between burnout and neuroticism. Additionally, there were significant negative correlations between compassion satisfaction and neuroticism, and between burnout and agreeableness, and extraversion. These results indicate which nursing assistants may be more likely to experience burnout and may be at an increased risk of turnover. Specific interventions may be developed for such individuals to increase compassion satisfaction, reduce burnout, and reduce staff turnover. Furthermore, information regarding personality types of individuals at greater or lesser risk for burnout may be helpful for LTC administrators in the recruitment and hiring of nursing assistants, and thus may reduce rates of turnover. Resident care outcomes may also improve as nursing assistant hiring efforts are focused more on individuals who are less likely to experience burnout. Future researchers might investigate potential risk and protective factors for burnout and compassion satisfaction in nursing assistants.

Abstract:
BackgroundCommunity nursing (and health) services are faced with the growing challenge of caring for increasingly dependent patients with chronic conditions and complex care needs. Over the past decade there have been changes in the composition of the community nursing workforce with increasing numbers of assistants yet there is a lack of published literature on the roles, contribution and impacts of community nursing assistants to the delivery of care and services.DesignWe adopted a three-stage approach for the scoping study using mixed quantitative and qualitative methods. First, we established contact with senior managers in provider organisations where we had research governance approval (n = 76; 75% of total provider organisations) to determine whether or not (a) they employ assistants within community nursing teams and (b) they would be interested in participating in the study. Second, we carried out a short telephone interview with all senior managers who indicated a willingness to participate (census approach). We also analysed secondary data (using the NHS iView data source, from the Electronic Staff Record Data Warehouse) to scope the national use of community nursing assistant roles. Finally, we conducted telephone interviews with a purposive sample of managers from 10 organisations that participated in stage two to gain an in-depth understanding of assistant roles in community nursing teamsSettingCommunity nursing provider organisations in England, UK.ParticipantsThirty-seven senior managers were interviewed for stage two (49% of all contacted). Thirty managers (20 service-level managers and 10 senior managers) were interviewed for stage three.ResultsAssistants promote flexibility in the community nursing workforce so as to respond to the changing demands on these services. However, the lack of consensus in defining the role of community nursing assistants has created inconsistency in the national deployment and development of these roles. These roles have tended to develop ad hoc, creating variations in numbers of assistants, the roles that they play and preparation for practice across different provider organisations and nursing teams. There is general enthusiasm among managers about the contribution of assistants. Their employment is regarded as fundamental to the ability of community nursing teams to deliver acceptable and appropriate services. However, the role may not always support career progression and development for those assistants who require this. The maturity and life experience of assistants is greatly valued in the nursing team to support care delivery and to offer stability and support to other members of the nursing team. Line management, responsibility and accountability in managing the work of assistants were highlighted as important for managing risk associated with an unregulated role. These have to be balanced with promoting flexibility in use and innovation.ConclusionsOur scoping study highlights the opportunities and challenges associated with the use of assistants to deliver care by the community nursing team. Further attention at national and local levels is required to support and mediate the development of these roles in the future so as to promote the delivery of quality, safe and acceptable care. As provider organisations plan for delivering an ambitious community services agenda in the future, the role of the assistant is likely to have increasing importance.FundingThe National Institute for Health Research Health Services and Delivery Research programme.

Abstract:
The use of nursing assistants has increased across health systems in the past 20 years, to alleviate licensed nurses' workload and to meet rising health care demands at lower costs. Evidence suggests that, when used as a substitute for licensed nurses, assistants are associated with poorer patient and nurse outcomes. Our multimethods study evaluated the impact of a policy to add nursing assistants to existing nurse staffing in Western Australia's public hospitals, on a range of outcomes. In this article, we draw the metainferences from previously published quantitative data and unpublished qualitative interview data. A longitudinal analysis of patient records found significantly higher rates adverse patient outcomes on wards that introduced nursing assistants compared with wards that did not. These findings are explained with ward-level data that show nursing assistants were added to wards with preexisting workload and staffing problems and that those problems persisted despite the additional resources. There were also problems integrating assistants into the nursing team, due to ad hoc role assignments and variability in assistants' knowledge and skills. The disconnect between policy intention and outcomes reflects a top-down approach to role implementation where assistants were presented as a solution to nurses' workload problems, without an understanding of the causes of those problems. We conclude that policy makers and managers must better understand individual care environments to ensure any new roles are properly tailored to patient and staff needs. Further, standardized training and accreditation for nursing assistant roles would reduce the supervisory burden on licensed nurses.

Abstract:
Nursing assistants (NAs) provide the majority of daily care to older adults in nursing homes (NHs); NAs working in NHs are the focus of this study. This study examined the influence of participatory management (the independent variable), and mediating variables, burnout – measured as emotional exhaustion, task performance, and affective organizational commitment, on NA withdrawal behaviors (the dependent variables absenteeism and turnover). Most of the data come from a 113-item self-administered questionnaire designed to measure NAs' perceptions of their job and work environment. Turnover data were collected from the NA's NH, on average about 16 months later. The two dependent variables were examined in separate analyses with the samples consisting of 246 participants for the absenteeism analysis and 244 for the turnover analysis. Data were analyzed using SPSS 25 and PROCESS 3.3, an SPSS macro add-in. Both ordinary least squares and logistic binary regression were used to examine the associations between variables. The results indicated that participatory management had statistically significant indirect effects on both outcomes. There were two significant mediation results for absenteeism: 1) participatory management increased NA task performance, which, in turn, decreased absenteeism and, 2) participatory management also decreased NA burnout, which, in turn, increased their performance and decreased absenteeism. There were four significant mediation results for turnover: 1) participatory management increased NA attachment to the NH, which, in turn, decreased turnover, 2) participatory management improved NAs' perceptions of their job performance, which, in turn, increased their turnover, 3) participatory management tended to decrease NA burnout, which, in turn, tended to increase attachment to the NH, and, then, tended to decrease turnover, and 4) participatory management tended to decrease NA burnout, which, in turn, tended to increase task performance, and, then, tended to increase turnover. These findings broaden the research on NAs' withdrawal behaviors and demonstrate the need to further explore this hypothesized model.

Abstract:
Elder bullying is on the rise and occurs in many contexts such as senior living communities and nursing homes, causing concern for the well-being of the residents by families, staff, themselves, and society in general. Although research has been limited, it does reveal that resident-to-resident bullying in nursing homes is a problem warranting further scholarly attention. The purpose of this study was to investigate the experiences of certified nursing assistants (CNAs) regarding resident-to-resident bullying in nursing homes. The theory of reasoned action and the theory of reflective equilibrium provided a conceptual lens from which to explore and describe the importance of the CNAs' attitudes and behavior when recognizing, observing, and addressing bullying incidences. A phenomenological research design was employed. Using open-ended questions, 10 CNAs were individually interviewed. One major discovery of the study was that 100% of the CNAs interviewed indicated that they experienced resident-to-resident bullying and that it was a major problem in the nursing home. The findings of this study presented many possibilities for positive social change across all levels, from individuals and families to nursing home organizations and society as a whole, but most importantly, it increased awareness about bullying across nursing homes as the ultimate goal was for the improvement on the quality of life experienced by residents in nursing homes.

Abstract:

Pain is a significant problem for nursing home residents. Pain assessment is complicated by the high prevalence of cognitive loss in this population. Because licensed nurse (LN) staffing levels are low in nursing homes, the majority of resident care is performed by certified nursing assistants (CNAs) who do not have formal training or skills to assess or manage pain. CNAs' role in the assessment and management of pain in nursing home residents is not well understood, because few studies have explored this issue.

To address this gap in our knowledge, a qualitative study using Grounded Theory Methodology was undertaken. The study was conducted at two skilled nursing facilities: Memory Care Units within a large county run hospital and at a 99 bed for-profit corporate owned facility. Twenty-six individuals were interviewed (16 CNAs and 10 LNs) using semi-structured interview guides. CNAs were asked about their experiences caring for residents in pain. LNs were asked about how they perceived CNAs' role in pain management. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed using grounded theory constant comparative methods.

Both CNAs and LNs perceived that CNAs had a role in the pain management of nursing home residents. CNAs' recognized pain by using techniques of asking and listening and by observing behaviors. They distinguished pain that they considered normal (everyday pain) from pain that they reported to LNs. As well as reporting pain, they responded to residents who had pain by performing resident-centered care, giving physical care and providing attention to distract residents from their pain. Their ability to do this work was founded on their understanding of pain as multidimensional and their intimate knowledge of individual residents. They described their knowledge of residents as being informed by two types of knowing: working knowledge and knowing residents as individuals. Contextual factors that both promoted and hindered CNAs having a role in pain management were identified. These factors included CNAs' individual skills and experience, low levels of staffing, and working more than 40 hours a week. From this understanding of CNAs' role in pain management, implications for clinical practice and research are identified.

Abstract:

Pressure ulcers (PUs) remain a relatively common and potentially serious health issue among the elderly in any healthcare setting and have been associated with high mortality and morbidity rate. A low incidence of PUs is highly desirable and is considered as an indication of quality care by patients, caregivers, and regulatory authorities on both the state and federal levels.

Nursing assistants play an integral role in the direct patient care; ongoing training and educational opportunities about pressure ulcer prevention are very important in maintaining their skill, motivation and knowledge. Research findings showed that staff education with reinforcement is the key in decreasing prevalence and incidence of pressure ulcer. This educational curriculum was designed to increase nursing assistants' knowledge about pressure ulcer prevention among elderly in long-term care.

Norris, Tamala. "Workplace Violence Among Nurses and Nursing Assistants in Texas." ScholarWorks, 2018. https://scholarworks.waldenu.edu/dissertations/5510.

Abstract:
Workplace violence (WPV) is ranked as one of the leading causes of occupational injury in the United States and is common in health settings. Nurses have the highest rate of violent victimization reported in the U.S., thus presenting a significant issue for healthcare leaders. Various researchers focus on prevalence rates of WPV among nurses discussing types of violence, location, and the setting where the WPV occurred. Less information exists regarding time taken off work and factors associated with WPV among nurses versus nursing assistants (NAs). This information is important due to the impact on safe work environments for nursing employees. The research questions for the study examined the prevalence of WPV and time taken off work among nurses compared to NAs. The study employed a retrospective secondary analysis of data collected by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, from 2011 to 2014, of nurses and NAs in the State of Texas. Multivariate analysis, partial correlation statistical test, and partition of the sum of squares (ANOVA) determined that NAs experienced more incidents of WPV and spent more time away from work due to injuries than nurses. The study was limited because the data did not provide clear indications of environmental factors that led to the injuries, nor did data related to the culture of the working environments and injuries exist. A recommendation for future research is evaluation of the impact of WPV on productivity, patient safety, and quality of care when nurses continue to work or return to work after experiencing WPV. Results of the study reveal the differences in injuries between the two groups and factors impacting the injuries. This information is important for social change as healthcare leaders evaluate opportunities to create a safe working environment for their staff and provide additional resources for nurses to prevent WPV incidents.

Abstract:
The high failure rate and low average grade on the anatomy, physiology, and biochemistry (APB) exam creates concern about whether nursing students have sufficient knowledge in bioscience subjects. In one of Norway’s major nursing schools, second-year students were employed as learning assistants to develop, implement and evaluate APB teaching in compulsory study groups. In this chapter, we seek to investigate hallmarks of the learning assistants’ teaching style and better understand about how they teach AFB in compulsory seminar groups, which can in turn help nursing students learn natural sciences. The data is from meetings (15 hours) in which learning assistants, together with the teacher, planned and evaluated teaching in compulsory study groups. The meetings were taped and transcribed (148 pages) and analyzed with content analysis. The study shows that the learning assistants’ teaching is student-active, oriented toward the exam and clinical practice, and playful. We conclude that the learning assistants taught AFB in ways that can reduce the fear of science and impart a sense of ownership of the subject, thus making it easier to learn. Skilled second-year students can be a resource for raising the level of knowledge in biosciences among nursing students.

Abstract:
This study presents implementation of an object fetching task with a mobile robotic platform (PR2) for hospital patients. The primary goal of this study is to define the requirements for a robotic nursing assistants. The designed application scenario consists of PR2 robotic platform, human subject as the patient, and a tablet for patient-robot communication. The PR2 robot understands patient’s request and fetches the requested object by performing automated action steps. For this designed scenario, human subject experiments are performed. Furthermore, all human subject test results are presented and observations during tests are provided. These activities are part of a larger effort to establish adaptive robotic nursing assistants for physical tasks in hospital environments.

Abstract:
Introduction: Nursing plays a vital role in the care of cancer patients, offering comprehensive support from diagnosis to treatment and rehabilitation. Understanding how nurses work in the chemotherapy outpatient clinic helps to identify areas where treatment can be improved. Objective: Disseminate the experience of good practices, promote humanization in care, continuous training of professionals, encourage research and innovation, and strengthen the professional support network. Methodology: This is a descriptive research, reporting the experience of nurses in the university oncology outpatient clinic. Development: The chemotherapy outpatient clinic is located in a university hospital. The nursing team is made up of nurses, nursing technicians and nursing assistants. The activities carried out by the nursing team in the chemotherapy room are: welcoming patients, preparing premedications, forwarding medical prescriptions to the pharmacy, checking medications after handling by the pharmacist, puncturing peripheral venous accesses and/or activating accesses central venous veins and patient monitoring. Furthermore, the nurse exercises the leadership role of the team and performs routine bureaucratic activities inherent to his position. In summary, the role of nurses in the chemotherapy outpatient clinic is characterized by a set of complex and interdisciplinary practices, which aim to achieve excellence in oncological care, as well as the dissemination of knowledge among university students who carry out their undergraduate and postgraduate internships there. graduation. Final considerations: The practice of working in the chemotherapy outpatient clinic highlights the importance of nursing's role in the comprehensive care of cancer patients. The dedication, technical knowledge and sensitivity of nurses are fundamental to providing quality care. Through reception, education, monitoring and rehabilitation, the nursing team contributes significantly to the well-being of patients.

Abstract:
Intravenous simply means “within a vein.” People of all ages who are ill, hurt, dehydrated, or going through surgery use it. Compared to conventional manual techniques, automated IV infusion systems may provide improved accuracy, consistency, efficiency, flexibility, and monitoring increase patient safety, and raise the standard of care delivered by medical professionals. The project’s objective was to design and implement a fully automated low-cost user-friendly portable embedded-based system for monitoring, ceasing, and alerting intravenous infusion. This can be installed in hospitals, clinics, medical offices, ambulatory surgical centers, dialysis centers, nursing homes, and mental health and addiction treatment centers to monitor, cease and alert IV status to medical assistants. Successful design and implementation of an automated system that controls the intravenous infusion, stop the infusion when there’s no fluid inside, sends an alert to the smart device in the nursing room, and continuously updates the intravenous infusion status. Arduino Uno was considered the heart of the device, as it controls all the functions of the device. For connecting the device to the cloud, the ESP826601 WiFi module was used. Blynk was the IoT platform used to display the status of IV infusions. User can enter their username and password using a 4x4 matrix keypad and displays the details via a 16x2 LCD. Based on that, the system was expected to validate the entered user credentials and BMI details to automatically stop the IV infusion and alert medical professionals by monitoring the IV drip infusion. The system’s design and development increased patient safety while decreasing risk elements during infusion. The proposed system can be used to monitor the drip infusion of several patients from the nurse station.

Abstract:
This article provides an overview of financing for long-term services and supports (LTSS) in the United States, paying special attention to how it has changed and not changed over the last 30 years. Although LTSS expenditures have increased greatly (like the rest of health care), the broad outline of the financing system has remained remarkably constant. Medicaid—a means-tested program—continues to dominate LTSS financing, while private long-term care insurance plays a minor role. High out-of-pocket costs and spend-down to Medicaid because of those high costs continue to be hallmarks of the system. Although many major LTSS financing reform proposals were introduced over this period, none was enacted—except the Community Living Assistance Services and Supports Act, which was repealed before implementation because of concerns about adverse selection. The one major change during this time period has been the very large increase in Medicare spending for post-acute services, such as short-term skilled nursing facility and home health care. With the aging of the population, demand for LTSS is likely to increase, placing strain on the existing system.
