"… that's why I call the ambulance!" - A qualitative study of emergency scenarios in nursing homes Abstract. Background: In nursing homes, emergencies lead to frequent utilisation of emergency medical services (EMS) and emergency department visits. A broad interprofessional perspective of involved practitioners on emergencies in nursing homes has been little studied so far. Aim: Characterization, identification and prioritization of emergency scenarios by relevance and frequency in nursing homes. Methods: We conducted two multi-method, interprofessional group discussions with a total of 18 participants from nursing, medicine and science in January and February 2020. Group discussions were recorded, transcribed and analyzed using qualitative content analysis according to Mayring. Results: Emergency scenarios in nursing homes arise from interactions between person-related aspects and contextual conditions. The following person-related aspects were named as relevant: Falls, unstable vital signs, abnormal behavior, neurological symptoms and lifelessness. Contextual conditions are classified into organizational-structural, political-legal and ethical aspects. The following were considered to be most relevant: lack of communication between the actors, uncertainties among staff, absent living wills and increasing workload in nursing. Conclusions: Emergencies in nursing homes turn out to be complex emergency scenarios. Contextual conditions are important for dealing with emergency scenarios in nursing homes. Recommended actions should be based on the perspective of involved practitioners on emergencies and take greater account of the contextual conditions. |
