- Objectives The proportion of older people in the population is increasing rapidly. Along with this comes an increase in the number of people requiring assistance in daily living, including oral care. Swedish law stipulates that care personnel who work with older people should be offered oral health education every year. The aim of this study was to investigate oral health care beliefs among such personnel. Methods A questionnaire study was conducted among 2167 personnel providing care to older people at special accommodation sites and in home care. Data were collected using the Nursing Dental Coping Beliefs Scale. Descriptive statistics were calculated and logistic regression analysis was performed. Results Personnel working in home care had lower odds of having an internal locus of control than those working in special accommodation, and personnel with less than 10 years of working experience had lower odds than their more experienced counterparts. Men had higher odds of having an external locus of control than women. Conclusions It seems important to ensure that home care personnel and less experienced personnel attend oral care educational sessions, and to encourage male staff to focus on oral care work.
