  • Involvement of professionals in research: knowledge integration, development of practice, and challenges : a group concept mapping study
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Health Research Policy and Systems. - 1478-4505 .- 1478-4505. ; 19:1, s. 1-17

    • BACKGROUND: Research and practice are often considered as two different worlds with different values, which causes a gap between them. Involving professionals such as practitioners, managers, decision-makers, and policy-makers in research on ageing and health might address the gap between research and practice, strengthen the healthcare system, and increase older people's possibilities for healthy ageing. The aim of this study was to conceptualize professionals' involvement in research on ageing and health from the perspective of the professionals themselves.METHODS: A mixed method called group concept mapping was used. Professionals with experience being involved in research on ageing and health participated in qualitative data collection through brainstorming sessions (n = 29) and by sorting statements (n = 29). Afterwards, they participated in a quantitative data collection by rating statements according to how much each statement strengthened practice (n = 30) and strengthened research (n = 28). Multidimensional scaling analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis were used to conduct quantitative analysis. Latent qualitative analysis was also conducted.RESULTS: Analysis resulted in eight clusters which illustrated conceptual areas of professionals' involvement in research projects. The qualitative latent construct of the cluster map resulted in the themes: challenges for professionals; prerequisites and professionals' learning can contribute to development of practice; and integrated knowledge benefits older people. There was a strong correlation between what strengthens practice and research (r = 0.92).CONCLUSIONS: This study illustrates conceptual areas of professionals' own perspectives on what their involvement in research can lead to. Their involvement may lead to knowledge being integrated, and the professionals may learn through their involvement, which can contribute to the development of practice. However, there can also be challenges that need to be handled when professionals are involved in research. The study can be useful for improving the understanding of and actual involvement of professionals in research, and for optimizing the involvement of professionals.

  • Give older persons a voice in the society : By using information compiled during preventive home visits on a societal level
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health. - 1661-7827 .- 1660-4601. ; 18:14, s. 1-17
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Preventive home visits (PHVs) are offered to older persons with the purpose of promoting health and preventing risks on an individual level. However, aspects of health need to be considered on a societal level as well. This study aims to get a deeper understanding of perceptions of the usability of the information compiled during the PHVs to promote health, among older persons, on a societal level. Three online focus groups were conducted with heads of unit of PHVs, heads of department, and politicians responsible for health and welfare in seven municipalities in Sweden (n = 12). The findings were visualised in the core category Enable an inclusive society and the interrelated categories Monitoring determinants of health and Enabling exchange of information. The information from the PHVs could be used to monitor determinants of health by identifying assets, challenges, shifts, trends, and future needs in the society. Moreover, exchange of information from the PHVs could occur within and outside the health and welfare organisation. However, the potential use was affected by hindrances illustrated in the category Obstacles to interpreting and communicating the information. To conclude, using the information from the PHVs could possibly contribute to an inclusive society, where persons not usually represented in decision making are given a voice.

  • Older person's experience of the gains from the support and advice given during the preventive home visit
  • 2021
  • Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Background: In order to maintain good health in old age, a comprehensive perspective including both health promotion and risk prevention is crucial. Preventive home visit is one intervention with the purpose to prevent risks and promote health among older persons. Support and advice given during the preventive home visit needs to be tailored towards the older person’s needs. In order to give advice and support that is targeting older persons prerequisites there is a need for more research about how older persons experience support and advice given during a preventive home visit. Therefore, the aim of this study was to explore older person’s experiences of the gains from the support and advice given in a preventive home visit program developed in collaboration between several municipalities, a county council and researchers.Method: Individual semi-structured interviews were conducted with 13 older persons, mean age 79 years old, living at home who had received a preventive home visit. The interviews were analysed with content analysis.Findings: The overarching preliminary theme Being empowered and recognised as a person reviled the participants feeling of that the support and advice given encountered all aspects of health and the whole person. The support and advice generated conditions for the person to be empowered by contributing to a feeling of control and preparedness for the future. Further the support and advice given contributed to a feeling of being recognised when health, behaviour and the surrounding environment were assessed.Conclusion: Being empowered and recognised as a person might be central gains from the support and advice given during the preventive home visits, which enables good health among older persons.

  • Promote social participation among older persons by identifying physical challenges : an important aspect of preventive home visits
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Archives of gerontology and geriatrics (Print). - 0167-4943 .- 1872-6976. ; 93, s. 1-6
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Introduction: Social participation  can have a positive  impact  on  health; however, physical challenges  can be hindrances. During a preventive  home  visit a health  professional (visitor) assesses different aspects of  physical,  mental and social health. However,  there might  be a challenge  for the  visitor  to discover  the interrelationship  between physical  factors that hinder social  participation. Therefore,  the aim  of this  study was, in  the context  of preventive  home visits, to identify  physical  factors which  can hinder  older  persons from taking  part in  social contexts.  Methods: Cross-sectional  register  data from  preventive  home  visits  to older  persons (n=1,245, ≥77 years old,  without  home care) was used. Data was collected during a period of 17 months, in  seven Swedish  municipalities. Logistic  regression  was used to analyse  the association between physical factors and the item physical problems hindering social participation. Results: The mean age was 78.8  (standard  deviation 1.8 years), and 55% were women. The physical  factors significantly  associated with  physical  problems  hindering  taking  part in  social contexts were: having urinary  incontinence (women  only),  having  pain,  impaired  endurance and using  a mobility  device.  Conclusions: This study  provides  insights  into  how to  make the best use of  the questions asked during preventive  home  visits, in  order to enable  older  persons to  take part in  social contexts. The  results recognise  the importance  of taking  into  account physical  challenges  to be able  to support  social  participation. Furthermore, considering physical challenges for social participation on both  an individual  and  a societal  level  might  reduce inequalities  among  older persons.
