Abstract:

Background: The population is ageing and recent years have revealed substantial increases in expenditure and demand for home care services. However, provision of home care is fraught with quality issues such as high staff turnover rates, inadequate staff training, a lack of coordinator support and reduced continuity of care. Consequently, ensuring the sustainability of home care services remains a critical area of concern. Objective: To evaluate the impact of a restorative home care service, for older people with varying levels of need, in relation to improving quality and sustainability. Desi

Abstract:

The aim of this novel piece of research was to explore experiences of self-stigma amongst a group of older people (aged 65+) currently using mental health services. In order to try and identify possible contributing factors to internalized stigma it was also decided to gather information on optimism and a baseline measure of distress. These scores were all compared with the individual’s likeliness to continue to use the mental health services as it was hypothesized that higher levels of self-stigma would be linked with a lower likelihood to continue to use services.

Abstract:

The quality of care within residential services for older people has been a source of concern within health and social care for some time. Several attempts have been made to develop a means of assessing the quality of care; however, the nature and quality of these varies enormously. The Quest process of evaluation, which was designed as a means of assessing service quality according to the structure and process of care, is presented as a possible means of improving upon current practice. The Quest system incorporates four measures: the Service Profile, the Support Questionnaire, the Observatio

Abstract:

This thesis develops our understanding of the roles and processes underlying the co-production of public services. The co-production concept encapsulates the joint contribution made by service users and service providers to the delivery of services, acknowledging the expertise, inputs and role of service users. There has been an expanding stream of literature within the public management field focusing on co-production, recently enhanced through combinatory insights drawn from the service management literature. The thesis builds on this perspective, and addresses a current gap in understanding

Abstract:

Background: Day care services support older people with multiple long term conditions (LTC) within the community to age in place. This salient topic is given little attention by researchers. Day care services models are complex and outcomes for service users unknown. In the UK, in response to wider policy reforms local authority models have been outsourced to a range of organisations, including Charitable and Voluntary services. This thesis aims to understand the models of day care provided in the community and the subsequent outcomes for users and their families. Methods: This is an explorato

Abstract:

Older adults' attitudes toward mental health services have received little research attention. Overall, older adults are thought to hold relatively negative attitudes. In this study, Analysis 1 investigated historical shifts in attitudes toward mental health services among three independent samples of older adults, separated by 14-year and 9-year intervals (1977 sample, N = 90; 1991 sample, N = 101; 2000 sample, N = 99). Analysis 2 compared two samples of older and younger adults, each separated by a 9-year interval (Older Adults: 1991 sample, N = 93; 2000 sample, N = 91 and Younger Adults: 19

Abstract:

The rising population of older people in the UK (Office for National Statistics 2010) and pressure on healthcare services to reduce costs indicate the necessity of developing strategies that enable coping and independence. Loss through death of close family members, partners and friends is a key factor that inhibits physical, emotional and social well being of older people. The research carried out for this thesis explored bereavement in healthcare settings where contacts with bereaved older people commonly occur, and used data collected to develop guidelines for practice.

Abstract:

The focus of this research project was to evaluate individual stakeholder perceptions of the implementation of Structured Decision Making (SDM) as a tool in risk assessment of elder abuse/neglect case referrals in Riverside County Adult Protective Services (APS). The researchers interviewed ten social workers from Riverside County APS, from line workers up to Deputy Director. Constructivist theory was used to develop a joint construct which indicated that the primary benefit of SDM was consistency. Consistency resulted in safety and proctection of the client, social worker and the agency.

Abstract:

A plethora of government policies impacting on older people in the UK assert a paradigmatic shift towards their engagement with public services. User involvement is integral to increasing personalisation of care services where older people are expected to direct their own care through individualised budgets through a transformational environment. Disciplines within lifelong learning, particularly educational gerontology, has given rise to debates about the purpose and meaning of learning in later life. There is however, relative under-theorisation and a lack of empirical research into the life

An interview schedule was designed from the perspective of older people and was used with a sample of 40 older people, 20 at Luton in an inner-city setting and 20 in Redbourn (Herts), a rural location.
