Popis: | The purpose of this quality improvement project was to evaluate the implementation of a person-centered communication tool in nursing homes (NH). The Preferences for Activity and Leisure (PAL) Cards were developed to communicate residents' preferences for activities across care team members.Providers were recruited to assess resident important preferences and create PAL Cards for 15-20 residents and collected data aligned with the RE-AIM framework.The majority of providers were successful in implementing PAL Cards for residents and reported the intervention as highly acceptable, appropriate, and feasible providing necessary data to inform future effectiveness trials.The intervention can assist nursing home providers in meeting PCC regulations and contribute to building relationships between residents, family, and staff. |
