Abstract:

Abstract Background The COVID-19 pandemic is recognised as having a significant impact on older people, particularly on those within nursing homes. Prior to the pandemic, a significant focus was placed on the application of a social model of care within nursing homes. We know that COVID-19 has required the stringent application of infection prevention and control measures as well as the provision of increased amounts of clinical care. This has resulted in the recent stronger application of a medical model of care within nursing homes. Methods A roundtable event attended by twenty-six people to

Abstract:

Abstract This article reflects on COVID-19 restrictions imposed on elders in Ireland through the lens of the right to private and family life (Article 8 ECHR), focusing on stay at home orders and recommendations advising elders to avoid social contact. Furthermore, we examine restrictions on visiting nursing homes given the high death toll in that setting. In our analysis, we zero in on the principles of foreseeability and proportionality, highlighting areas of concern and aspects that we submit should be considered in a proportionality assessment. Ultimately, we argue that it is a mistake to

Background: Nursing homes (NHs) in Ireland are regulated by the Health Information and Quality Authority (HIQA).

AbstractLack of access to affordable quality homes constitutes a significant crisis for workers, families and communities in the Republic of Ireland.

BackgroundDementia is a leading cause of death worldwide. Often, people with moderate to advanced dementia are admitted to nursing homes for specialist care. When a person with dementia no longer has the capacity to make decisions about their care, nursing home staff, in combination with family members, may have to make decisions based on a person’s best interests. Family carers often report feeling unprepared to participate in these decisions.

It is well-known that mortality rates are pro-cyclical. In this paper, we attempt to understand why.

Further, most additional deaths that occur when the economy is strong are among the elderly, particularly elderly women and those residing in nursing homes. We also demonstrate that staffing in nursing homes moves countercyclically. These findings suggest that cyclical fluctuations in the quality

Background: Spatial accessibility has consistently been shown to influence utilisation of care and health outcomes, compared against local population needs. We sought to identify how appropriately nursing homes (NHs) are distributed in Ireland, as its NH market lacks central planning. Methods: We used multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA) approaches to develop composite indices of both access (incorporating measures of availability, choice, quality and affordability) and local NH need for over 65s (relating to the proportion living alone, with cognitive disabilities or with low self-rated

Abstract Background Approximately 1 billion people worldwide have Vitamin D deficiency. The aim of this study was to compare Vitamin D status and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) concentrations among adults sampled in the community, in outpatient clinics, as hospital inpatients and in nursing homes in the West of Ireland. The secondary aim was to determine the associations between length of hospital stay (inpatients) at the time of serum 25(OH)D sampling and Vitamin D status. Methods A cross-sectional study was carried out. Patients who had serum 25(OH)D analysis carried out in Galway Unive

Abstract:

Post–stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) is a common consequence of stroke. Epidemiological evidence indicates that, with an ageing population, stroke and PSCI are likely to increase in the coming decades. This may have considerable implications for the demand for nursing home placement. As prevalence estimates of both cognitive impairment and dementia on admission to nursing home among residents with and without stroke have not yet been compared, they were estimated and compared in this study. We performed a cross–sectional survey to establish the admission characteristics of 643 residents in

Abstract:

This paper examines the extent of mental ill-health and probable depression among older people in long-term care. It presents selected findings from a study in Greater Belfast, Northern Ireland, that compared the quality of life, autonomy and mental health of older people living in nursing and residential homes with those of older people living in private households who were receiving domiciliary care. Structured interviews were conducted with 214 residents in institutions and 44 older people receiving domiciliary care. The study found that those in private households were more severely physic

Skills and behavioural problems were assessed by keyworkers. Self-perceived quality of life was obtained during interviews with researchers who also completed an environmental checklist of the residents' accommodation.ResultsThere was little or no change in peoples low pre-discharge skill levels.

AbstractObjectiveThe present study aimed to establish the annual public expenditure arising from the health and social care of patients with diet-related malnutrition (DRM) in the Republic of Ireland.DesignCosts were calculated by (i) estimating the prevalence of DRM in health-care settings derived from age-standardised comparisons between available Irish data and large-scale UK surveys and (ii) applying relevant costs from official sources to estimates of health-care utilisation by adults with DRM. No attempt has been made to estimate separately the costs of DRM and any associated disease, si

AimsSTOMP (stopping the over-medication of people with a learning disability, autism, or both) is a national project launched by NHS England in 2016. The objective is to curb the excessive use of psychotropic medication in individuals with a learning disability, autism, or both to manage behaviour that challenges. This means ensuring that medications are prescribed at the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration of time, and aiming to discontinue if appropriate.We aim to broaden the implementation of the STOMP initiative to a relatively new residential nursing home in Northern Ireland t
