Popis: Background With the acceleration of the aging process in society, the demand for hospice services is increasing. The development of hospice care in China started relatively late, and relevant institutional construction standards and management norms are still in the trial stage. As one of the important integrated medical and nursing service institutions, elderly care institutions currently lack an effective and homogeneous model and service system for hospice services. Objective To establish a scientific, standardized and feasible hospice service model for elderly care institutions. Methods From April to May in 2020, Chinese/English databases were systematically searched to obtain the literature related to hospice services. Five experts in the field of hospice care were invited to carry out semi-structured interviews, and the initial index system was constructed based on the results of literature retrieval and semi-structured interviews. In May 2020, a purposive sampling method was used to select fifteen experts in the field of hospice care to conduct two rounds of correspondence, and the indicator system was determined based on the analysis of the research group and expert suggestions. After two rounds of correspondence, an expert group interview was conducted to further optimize and adjust the formed indicator system. Results In both rounds of correspondence, the questionnaire response rate was 100.0%, with expert authority coefficients of 0.89 and 0.94, respectively. The Kendall's W coefficients for the first level indicator were 0.54 and 0.59, respectively, and the Kendall's W coefficients for the second level indicator were 0.18 and 0.10, respectively. The final constructed indicator system for the hospice service model of elderly care institutions included three primary indicators of necessary resources and conditions, content and processes, assessment indicators, and 36 secondary indicators. In the second round of inquiry, the average importance score of the indicator was 3.87 to 5.00 points, the coefficient of variation was 0 to 0.25, and the full score rate was 63.0% to 100.0%. Conclusion The scientificity and reliability of the model hospice service model for elderly care institutions constructed in this study are good, which can provide reference for elderly care institutions to provide high-quality medical services for elderly patients at the end of their lives.
