Abstract

This study examines the protective and risk factors for suicide among nursing home residents as well as strategies to prevent suicide. In this study, semi-structured interviews are used to interpret the experiences and perceptions of nursing home residents regarding suicide attempts. The research is conducted using the technique of content analysis with Nvivo. Researchers have assessed this study for clarity. The experiences of nursing home residents with suicidal ideation were divided into three categories, nine sub-themes, and relevant theme clusters. The three categories were: (a) protective factors for suicide prevention; (b) risk factors for suicide attempts; and (c) suicide prevention strategies. These factors and strategies were found to be associated with suicide ideation and attempts. Factors and strategies influencing suicidal ideation and attempts among nursing home residents revealed some new issues and problems during COVID-19, allowing healthcare providers to better understand nursing home residents and improve intervention strategies in practice.

COVID-19下养老院居民自杀企图的因素

本研究旨在探讨安老院居民自杀的保护与危险因素，以及预防自杀的策略。本研究以半结构式访谈的方式，探讨疗养院住客对自杀企图的感受与经验。本研究采用Nvivo的内容分析技术进行。研究人员对这项研究进行了清晰的评估。将养老院居民的自杀意念经历分为三类、九个子主题和相关主题群。这三个类别是：(a)预防自杀的保护因素；(b)自杀企图的危险因素；(c)自杀预防策略。这些因素和策略被发现与自杀意念和企图有关。影响养老院居民自杀意念和企图的因素和策略揭示了新冠肺炎期间一些新的问题和问题，使医疗服务提供者能够更好地了解养老院居民，并在实践中改进干预策略。
