Social organization of self-management support of persons with diabetes: A health systems comparison
《Scandinavian journal of primary health care》2013,31(3):189-194
AbstractObjective. Identify important organizational elements for providing self-management support (SMS). Design. Semi-structured qualitative interviews conducted in two healthcare systems. Setting. Kaiser Permanente Northern California and the Danish Health Care System. Subjects. 36 managers and healthcare professionals in the two healthcare systems. Main outcome measures. Elements important to providing self-management support to persons with diabetes. Results. Healthcare professionals’ provision of SMS was influenced by healthcare system organization and their perceptions of SMS, the capability and responsibility of healthcare systems, and their roles in the healthcare organization. Enabling factors for providing SMS included: strong leadership; aligned incentives; use of an integrated health information technology (HIT) system; multidisciplinary healthcare provider teams; ongoing training for healthcare professionals; outreach; and quality goals. Barriers to providing SMS included lack of collaboration between providers and skeptical attitudes towards prevention and outreach. Conclusions and implications. Implementation of SMS can be improved by an understanding of the elements that enhance its provision: (1) initiatives seeking to improve collaboration and integration between providers; (2) implementation of an integrated HIT system; and (3) ongoing training of healthcare professionals. 相似文献

In light of the growing prevalence and healthcare costs of diabetes mellitus, it is critically important for healthcare providers to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of their diabetes care. A key element of effective disease management for diabetes is support for patient self-management. Barriers to care exist for both patients and healthcare systems. As a result, many people with diabetes do not get the care and support needed to successfully manage their diabetes.Disease management approaches that incorporate peer support may be a promising way to help provide self-management support to patients with diabetes. Trained peers provide emotional support, instrumental (tangible or material) support, education, and skills training to those they serve, and outreach and care coordination for provider systems. They play a unique role that complements and supports clinical care.To describe how peers are currently supporting diabetes care, a number of databases were searched for studies describing the roles of peers using relevant key words. This paper reviews current literature that describes the roles and duties of peers in interventions to improve diabetes care, with a focus on their contributions to six essential elements of self-management support: (i) access to regular, high-quality clinical care; (ii) an individualized approach to assessment and treatment; (iii) patient-centered collaborative goal setting; (iv) education and skills training; (v) ongoing follow-up and support; and (vi) linkages to community resources.Peers worked under a variety of titles, which did not define their duties. The scope of their work ranged from assisting health professionals to playing a central role in care. Providing education and follow-up support were the two most common roles. In all but one study, these roles were carried out during face-to-face contact, most frequently in community sites.A growing body of literature supports the value of peer models for diabetes management. Additional research can answer remaining questions related to such issues as cost effectiveness, sustainability, integration of peers into health and social service delivery systems, and recruitment, training, and support of peers. Continuing to develop and evaluate innovative models for more effectively mobilizing and integrating peers into diabetes care has great potential for improving diabetes outcomes worldwide. 相似文献

OVERVIEW: This overview of successful strategies for supporting self-management in patients with osteoarthritis (OA) defines the concepts of self-management, self-management support (SMS), and self-management education (SME); describes five categories of SMS interventions; identifies common elements across SMS categories; and provides evidence for and examples of self-management tools that are useful in OA. SMS categories include SME, other skill-building and behavior-change interventions, supportive provider interactions, ongoing supportive follow-up, and environmental changes. Where available, relevant OA-specific SMS strategies are used to illustrate these categories. 相似文献

In-depth interviews and discussions were held with 40 different professionals in South East England involved in managing palliative care for children with cancer in the community. Participants included paediatric oncologists and outreach nurse specialists in tertiary centres, paediatricians in shared care units, children's community nurses, general practitioners, social workers and child psychologists. The research examined palliative care services available in the region, exploring attitudes to both current provision and possible service improvements. Providing palliative care in the community involves multi-agency collaboration and the study highlighted a range of different approaches to case management with the diversity of resources available. Key improvements proposed by health-care professionals included: better communication and liaison between all the professionals involved; clearer allocation of roles and responsibilities; 24-hour availability of specialist advice on palliative care for children with cancer; faster access to social work and psychology services at the community level; continuity of nursing and respite care. The provision of specialist local palliative care services for children with cancer was generally rejected. The participants favoured improving community palliative care for all children with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions with community nursing teams providing continuity of care and outreach nurses providing specialist advice and support. 相似文献

This fourth article will explore the resources available to those who are abused and also the measures available to prevent abuse by healthcare professionals. It was found that, despite good intentions, available measures, which include training and supervision of those likely to abuse, changes in environment, relying on the victim's own support network and generalist professional support networks, are far from adequate. There are a number of measures available to prevent abuse by care professionals from happening. These include clinical supervision, continuing professional development and training, current research awareness and implementation and vastly improved communication between care providers. The only organization that appears to be working in the field of abuse by healthcare professionals is the London-based voluntary sector organization WITNESS. 相似文献

ABSTRACT Coordination among healthcare providers in intra- and inter-organizational networks is critical for the provision of seamless and efficient healthcare. Relational Coordination (RC) represents a type of coordination that enables network participants to manage interdependencies and has consistently been found to improve quality and efficiency of patient care. The majority of RC studies focuses on intra-organizational settings, while less is known about inter-organizational settings. This pilot study examined RC in relation to a collaboration between a hospital-based geriatric team and a community-based acute care team. The study focused especially on how structural challenges due to lack of technological, geographical and organizational proximity between the healthcare providers affected RC, drawing on literature on inter-organizational collaboration. We adopted a qualitative case design to gain an in-depth understanding of barriers and facilitators of interprofessional RC. Data included seven qualitative interviews with healthcare professionals and managers across the two provider teams and 16 hours of participant observations. Findings suggested that core tasks were coordinated through strong RC, while RC in non-core tasks were systematically hindered by structural challenges of the inter-organizational setting. Findings also indicated that RC in core tasks was partly dependent on formal coordination mechanisms to overcome frictions in inter-organizational structures. 相似文献

Mental health professionals do not often collaborate with families when providing treatment to the mentally ill, even though research shows better patient outcomes with family involvement. The National Alliance for the Mentally Ill (NAMI) developed a course, Professional Provider Family Education Course (PP FEC), to educate mental health providers in outreach to families. This article reports the findings of a study which evaluated the PP FEC and identified barriers to collaboration between families and mental health professional providers. 相似文献

AIM: The purpose of this study was to establish healthcare professionals' perceptions of critical care outreach. METHOD: A multi-site survey approach was used to collect qualitative data. RESULTS: Most respondents felt that outreach assisted with patient care by enabling the admission and smooth discharge to and from the critical care units and providing useful education and training that changed practice. Respondents also thought that the audits undertaken by the outreach teams benefited patient care. CONCLUSION: Overall, outreach was considered by healthcare professionals to enhance patient care and improve practice. 相似文献

The importance of implementing self-management support (SMS) is now widely accepted, but questions remain as to how. In 2015, we facilitated the implementation of an interprofessional model of SMS (Bridges Self-Management) for people with complex multiple long-term conditions through community rehabilitation and social care services in one Southeast England locality. Over 90 professionals and support workers from this workforce received interprofessional training to integrate SMS into their care and rehabilitation interactions. This gave an opportunity to explore how SMS can be implemented in practice. We conducted a mixed-methods study with unequal weighting (qualitative emphasis), concurrent timing, and embedded design. Staff provided written feedback and case reflections, participated in group discussions, and completed a survey of self-management beliefs and attitudes. We recruited a convenience sample of 10 service users and conducted qualitative interviews and standardised questionnaires. Findings showed that staff appreciated and benefited from the interprofessional learning environment. Staff reported changes in their interactions with service users and colleagues and had gained knowledge and confidence to support individuals to self-manage. Data also highlighted the need to facilitate SMS practice at the level of service organisation. Service user data illustrated the impact of interactions with staff, and how SMS had increased service users’ confidence and encouraged different skills to manage life with their conditions. This project has shown how multi-agency community teams can benefit from interprofessional training to enhance SMS for people living with long-term conditions, build a shared understanding of SMS, and integrate effective SMS strategies into everyday practices. 相似文献

AbstractThe rising number of people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA) world-wide has made healthcare professionals and policy makers search for accessible healthcare that will meet the needs of people who are suffering from the disease and enhance their quality of life (QoL). This study investigated met and unmet palliative care needs of PLWHA in selected areas in Rwanda. The study sample included 306 participants: PLWHA, healthcare professionals and co-ordinators of HIV/AIDS units. Quantitative and qualitative methodologies were used. The data were analysed separately and then triangulated. In the findings, over 50% of PLWHA had symptoms related to HIV/AIDS most of the time, with the most common symptom being pain. Participation in activities of daily living was associated with the health status of PLWHA (P < 0.001). The most common perceived palliative care needs of PLWHA were: (i) medical needs, psychosocial needs and the need for financial assistance (77%); (ii) home-based care (47%); (iii) nutritional support (44%); and (iv) pain relief and management of other symptoms (43%). Most PLWHA indicated these palliative care needs were unmet, in particular, the need for pain relief, symptom management, financial assistance and nutritional support. Over 50% of healthcare professionals reported they were not trained in palliative care. They indicated that inadequate policy and resources were the main obstacles to the provision of optimal palliative care. Addressing unmet palliative care needs would enhance the QoL of PLWHA. In addition, developing policy related to the provision of palliative care and building the capacity of healthcare providers is essential for the provision of adequate palliative care services in Rwanda. 相似文献

This qualitative, exploratory study examined the self-management experiences of people with mild to moderate chronic kidney disease (CKD, Stages 1-3) to elicit participants' perceptions of health, kidney disease, and supports needed for self-management. Findings revealed a process of renegotiating life with chronic kidney disease, which encompassed Discovering Kidney Disease and Learning To Live With Kidney Disease. A number of themes were identified including searching for evidence, realizing kidney disease is forever, managing the illness, taking care of the self and the need for disease-specific information. The findings indicate participants with early CKD want to self-manage their illness in collaboration with health care providers. As well, people with early CKD need guidance and support from health professionals to successfully self-manage. Nephrology nurses are uniquely positioned to provide this support while collaborating with other care providers to facilitate self-management. 相似文献

A great divide currently exists between mainstream health care and specialty substance use disorders (SUD) treatment, concerning the coordination of care and sharing of medical information. Improving the coordination of SUD treatment with other disciplines of medicine will benefit SUD patients. The development and use of harmonized electronic health record systems (EHR) containing standardized person-level information will enable improved coordination of healthcare services. We attempt here to illuminate the urgent public health need to develop and implement at the national level harmonized EHR including data fields containing standardized vocabulary/terminologies relevant to SUD treatment. The many advantages and barriers to harmonized EHR implementation in SUD treatment service groups, and pathways to their successful implementation, are also discussed. As the US Federal Government incentivizes Medicare and Medicaid Service providers nationwide for "meaningful use" of health information technology (HIT) systems, relevant stakeholders may face relatively large and time-consuming processes to conform their local practices to meet the federal government's "meaningful use" criteria unless they proactively implement data standards and elements consistent with those criteria. Incorporating consensus-based common data elements and standards relevant to SUD screening, diagnosis, and treatment into the federal government's "meaningful use" criteria is an essential first step to develop necessary infrastructure for effective coordination of HIT systems among SUD treatment and other healthcare service providers to promote collaborative-care implementation of cost-effective, evidence-based treatments and to support program evaluations. 相似文献

AbstractShared decision-making and interprofessional collaboration are important approaches to achieving consumer-centered care. The concept of shared decision-making has been expanded recently to include the interprofessional healthcare team. This study explored healthcare providers’ perceptions of barriers and facilitators to both shared decision-making and interprofessional collaboration in mental healthcare. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 31 healthcare providers, including medical practitioners (psychiatrists, general practitioners), pharmacists, nurses, occupational therapists, psychologists and social workers. Healthcare providers identified several factors as barriers to, and facilitators of shared decision-making that could be categorized into three major themes: factors associated with mental health consumers, factors associated with healthcare providers and factors associated with healthcare service delivery. Consumers’ lack of competence to participate was frequently perceived by mental health specialty providers to be a primary barrier to shared decision-making, while information provision on illness and treatment to consumers was cited by healthcare providers from all professions to be an important facilitator of shared decision-making. Whilst healthcare providers perceived interprofessional collaboration to be influenced by healthcare provider, environmental and systemic factors, emphasis of the factors differed among healthcare providers. To facilitate interprofessional collaboration, mental health specialty providers emphasized the importance of improving mental health expertise among general practitioners and community pharmacists, whereas general health providers were of the opinion that information sharing between providers and healthcare settings was the key. The findings of this study suggest that changes may be necessary at several levels (i.e. consumer, provider and environment) to implement effective shared decision-making and interprofessional collaboration in mental healthcare. 相似文献

BackgroundHealthcare providers play an important role in providing preconception care to women and men of childbearing age. Yet, the provision of preconception care by healthcare providers remains low.ObjectivesTo provide an overview of barriers and facilitators at multiple levels that influence the provision of preconception care by healthcare providers.DesignA mixed-methods systematic review.Data sourcesPubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, The Cochrane Library, and EMBASE were systematically searched up to April 27, 2017. The search strategy contained MeSH terms and key words related to preconception care and healthcare providers. Reference lists of included studies and systematic reviews on preconception care were screened.Review methodsPublications were eligible if they reported on barriers and facilitators influencing the provision of preconception care by healthcare providers. Data were extracted by two independent reviewers using a data extraction form. Barriers and facilitators were organized based on the social ecological model. The methodological quality of included studies was evaluated using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme Qualitative checklist for qualitative studies, the Quality Assessment Tool for quantitative studies, and the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool for mixed methods studies.ResultsThirty-one articles were included. Barriers were more reported than facilitators. These were situated at provider level (unfavourable attitude and lack of knowledge of preconception care, not working in the field of obstetrics and gynaecology, lack of clarity on the responsibility for providing preconception care) and client level (not contacting a healthcare provider in the preconception stage, negative attitude, and lack of knowledge of preconception care). Limited resources (lack of time, tools, guidelines, and reimbursement) were frequently reported at the organizational and societal level.ConclusionsHealthcare providers reported more barriers than facilitators to provide preconception care, which might explain why the provision of preconception care is low. To overcome the different client, provider, organizational, and societal barriers, it is necessary to develop and implement multilevel interventions. 相似文献

There are times when an experience is so powerful that it evokes caring in its purest form. This is what happened when a group of healthcare providers traveled together on a trip to Peru. This article recounts a harrowing experience that called each person to give caring and receive learning regarding his or her own journey. It is about how caring can simply happen with ease and purpose. Communication and collaboration occurred effortlessly. In this experience, there was a remembering of the passion and purpose that exists when we are called to serve in healthcare settings. The learning gained included 4 key elements of caring: intent, presence, action, and surrender. This learning offers insight, direction for healthcare environments today. Healthcare leaders must be responsive to creating cultures and providing opportunities to support those serving patients to intentionally think about their caring approaches. It is possible to evoke caring through providing opportunities that help healthcare providers transcend the daily barriers to being present and be more effective in their caring. It is imperative that they experience ways to examine their ability to care for themselves and others and to reconnect to the passion of choosing the healthcare profession. 相似文献

This article describes an evaluation of interprofessional training in a stroke self-management program (SSMP) for health and social care professionals. Sixty-six practitioners from 8 teams and 11 professions received training. The aim was to evaluate the impact of the interprofessional training on participants' beliefs and attitudes to self-management and collaboration and knowledge sharing throughout the stroke pathway. Methods included contextual mapping of the stroke pathway, before and after questionnaires, analysis of practitioners' case reflections on their use of the SSMP and semi-structured interviews. Overall, practitioners' attitudes and beliefs about self-management had changed post-training, and the majority felt the program could be used successfully throughout the stroke pathway. Practitioners felt that the interprofessional training had led to a more consistent approach to supporting self-management and had improved communication between teams about patients/goals. The project provided the opportunity for interprofessional teams to explore beliefs and attitudes to changes in practice together. 相似文献
