Twenty-one articles were reviewed. A theoretical framework supported by Troutman-Jordan's theory of successful aging and Baltes and Baltes' model of selection, optimization, and compensation were implemented to examine and illustrate findings.Results: Evidence consistently showed a positive correlation between LL and successful aging.Conclusion: Promotion of successful aging is an important consideration in PCN practice. This study brings awareness to the value of LL in achieving that goal. Incorporating strategies, such as encouraging creative activities and healthy behaviors, cultivating positive perceptions about aging, and helping patients meet their perceived needs, fosters coping with growing older.

The logistic regression model showed that high expectations regarding aging are associated with reduced likelihood of meeting daily protein intake.Conclusion: Key components of the IFSMT, such as self-efficacy, steps per day, and expectations regarding aging, are important when designing self-management interventions to prevent falls.

As a quality improvement project, 11 NHs implemented use of PAL Cards in their communities and provided feedback (N = 91 feedback forms received) on their perceptions of impact of PAL Cards on care communication and delivery.Results: A variety of NH staff members, across disciplines, were a part of PAL Card implementation. The majority of staff (84%) perceived that PAL Cards helped them start a conversation with a resident and 64% indicated that PAL Cards helped them provide care for a resident.Conclusion: PAL Cards are an effective tool for communicating information about NH residents' preferences to staff.

Older adults with non-activity-limiting pain had significantly higher social participation than those without pain, but no differences in self-realization, self-efficacy, or resilience.Conclusion: Pain is strongly associated with all psychosocial outcomes, especially in older adults with activity-limiting pain.

CNAs from 21 long-term care institutions in Taiwan were recruited.Results: This study included 118 female and 26 male CNAs (response rate = 80%). Mean age was 46.8 years. A moderately negative correlation was found between workplace resilience and stress. Overall, being a woman and parent were found to be significantly correlated with CNAs' resilience. Furthermore, resilience and shift work were important predictors of stress.Conclusion: We suggest that leadership and management pay more attention to CNAs' basic demographic background information. Furthermore, timely, relevant strategies can be provided to enhance resilience and reduce workplace stress.

This study explored the cultural challenges in providing palliative care from the perspective of certified nursing assistants (CNAs) and nurses in nursing facilities.Method: A thematic analysis approach was used to examine data from semi-structured interviews with 12 CNAs and 11 nurses from six nursing facilities in a U.S. Midwestern state.Results: Four themes emerged from the data: Cultural Needs Expressed by Residents, Cultural Needs Expressed by Family Members, Accommodating Residents' Cultural Needs, and Organizational Responses to Cultural Competency Challenges.Conclusion: Results highlighted the training variations on diversity and cultural competency issues and the varying cultural competency levels possessed by staff. To support residents' culture-related needs, staff need education and support. Organizations can provide foundational resources for this diversity of cultural expression, including providing more culturally diverse programming facilities.

In the current study, we assessed sleep quality and medicinal sleep aid use among 87 community-dwelling older adults with (n = 24) and without (n = 63) physical disabilities.Method: Sleep quality, duration, and efficiency were assessed subjectively with the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index. Sleep duration and efficiency were objectively measured with actigraphy.

No other group differences were observed for sleep factors (p > 0.05) or medicinal sleep aid use (p = 0.41).Conclusion: Findings show that physical disability may be a factor in sleep duration; however, physical disability was not found to be associated with worsened sleep perception or greater reliance on medicinal sleep aids.

Formal caregivers (i.e., RNs and nursing assistants) (N = 98) from four LTCFs were randomly assigned to experimental or control groups. Training was based on four components of FFC-CI. Data were collected four times within 9 months using five observational outcome measurements: Self-Efficacy for Restorative Care (SERCS), Outcome Expectations for Restorative Care Scale (OERCS), Restorative Care Knowledge Scale (RCKS), Restorative Care Behavior Checklist (RCBC), and Job Attitude Scale (JAS).Results: Statistically significant changes were noted in each activity of restorative care behavior among the four observational measurements. Results also indicated that job satisfaction was a statistically significant main effect for the experimental group; however, SERCS, OERCS, and RCKS scores were not statistically significant.Conclusion: To eliminate gaps between translating research outcomes to clinical practice, this study applied a theory-based caring model for caregivers to improve knowledge and skills in caring for older adults with dementia. Caregivers who received training in FFC-CI not only had higher job satisfaction but could also provide specific FFC activities for residents during their daily care.
