Core elements of the interpersonal care relationship between nurses and older patients without cognitive impairment during their stay at the hospital: A mixed-methods systematic review
2019, International Journal of Nursing StudiesCitation Excerpt :Therefore the core values are presented as an introduction of the manuscript. The literature demonstrates that older patients consider dignity (Canzan et al., 2014; Chang et al., 2012; Jacelon, 2002, 2003; Maben et al., 2012; Randers and Mattiasson, 2000; Ruan and Lambert, 2008; Tauber-Gilmore et al., 2018; Webster and Bryan, 2009) and respect (Canzan et al., 2014; Jacelon, 2002, 2003; Janes and Wells, 1997; Koskenniemi et al., 2013; Lasiter and Duffy, 2013; Maben et al., 2012; Randers and Mattiasson, 2000; Ruan and Lambert, 2008; Tauber-Gilmore et al., 2018; Webster and Bryan, 2009) to be core values that need to be met in the interpersonal care relationship. This finding indicates that the elements of the interpersonal care relationship must meet these core values by providing dignity and respect to older patients.
Attitudes of students of health sciences towards the older persons
2016, Nurse Education TodayCitation Excerpt :Attitude is defined as a person's belief, feelings, and experiences in regard to a human, an object or a condition, which is constituted by the person's background and it influences the person's behavior or reactions (Mario et al., 2004). Many factors of care of the older persons are related to attitudes towards an older population, such as inadequate physical conditions and technical equipment in hospital, care centers or nursing homes, management problems, lack of communication with care team professionals, inadequate knowledge and skills for older person care (Adibelli and Kilic, 2012; Jacelon, 2002; Lovell, 2006). In addition to these factors, culture, age, gender, education level, experience and previous relationships with older people could be influential factors on the healthcare provider's attitudes towards the population (Hweidi and Al-Hassan, 2005; Hweidi and Al-Obeisat, 2006; Lambrinou et al., 2009; Usta et al., 2012).
Dignity in the older critically ill adult: The family member's perspective
2014, Heart and Lung: Journal of Acute and Critical CareCitation Excerpt :Staff who are attentive to patients, connected, friendly, helpful, unobtrusive, and respectful enhance a patient's dignity. Staff who are inattentive, rough, harsh speaking, unfriendly or brusque, forgetful of promises or actions, slow to respond, noisy, disrespectful, and insensitive to maintaining privacy diminish patient's dignity.20 Despite this growing attention to issues of dignity, little attention has been paid to the family members' perspective.
