The Preservation of Spousal and Partner Relationships Among Nursing Home Residents.
Deciding to seek placement in a nursing home can be difficult for both older adults and their families, but especially so for spouses or partners of potential nursing home residents. Disruption of the attachment relationship following placement is likely to influence the psychosocial well-being of nursing home residents. This mixed-method study explored services and activities offered that emphasize the preservation of spousal and partner relationships among nursing home residents. A survey was administered to nursing home social workers in the states of Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, and Tennessee. Survey results reveal that approximately 49% of respondents reported having a written policy to preserve these relationships, however, only 22% reported having a program to carry out the facility's written policy. Both survey respondents and interview participants highlighted privacy and outings as ideal relationship-preserving practices. Nursing home social workers can utilize the study results in the design and implementation of specific services to preserve relationships between residents and their spouses/partners.
