Purpose: Focus group interviews were conducted to explore the current status and barriers of health care services in nursing home from the viewpoint of staffs taking care of nursing home residents.
Methods: A qualitative thematic analysis using the focus group interview method was used. A total of 32 health care professionals (19 nurses and 13 social workers) from thirteen nursing homes in South Korea attended (5 focus groups) in 2014.
Results: The two main themes were identified: ’minimal health care services that left personal care needs unmet’ which has three subthemes of ’stereotyped and fragmented care by types of care providers’, ’medically-oriented health care services’ and ’health care services mixed with social or recreational programs’; and ’barriers to proper and timely care in nursing homes’ with four subthemes including ’unmet care needs due to cognitive dysfunction or lack of expression’, ’care guides or tools not suitable for long-term care facilities’, ’health care needs that are beyond the facility’s care boundary’, and ’care delay due to lack of understanding on the older adult’s status’.
Conclusion: The findings from this study should help health care policy makers to recognize the factors that influence health care services and provide direction for nurses and other staffs involved in supporting health care services for nursing home residents.
