" I'm not a risk taker " : Risk Perceptions of Nursing Home Residents With Dementia.
Background: Persons living with Alzheimer disease and related dementia (ADRD) in nursing homes (NH) are often excluded from conversations about their health/safety. These omissions impinge on personhood and the rights to have care preferences heard and honored. While persons with ADRD maintain the ability to communicate their preferences long after their decision-making abilities are affected, little is known about how persons with ADRD understand the risks associated with their preferences.
Methods: As part of a larger focused ethnography, in-depth interviews and an adapted risk propensity questionnaire explored the risk perceptions of NH residents with ADRD (N=7) associated with their preferences for care and activities of daily living.
Results: Residents generally self-identified as risk avoiders ( M =3.2±1.84) on the risk propensity scale and were able to rate risk associated with preferences described within 5 thematic categories: 1) participation in decision-making, 2) risk awareness, 3) paying attention to safety, 4) reliance on nursing home staff and family, and 5) impacts on quality of life and quality of care.
Discussion: Results suggest NH residents with ADRD can express risk surrounding their preferences and should be encouraged to participate in discussions about their health and safety.
期刊介绍:
Alzheimer Disease & Associated Disorders is a peer-reviewed, multidisciplinary journal directed to an audience of clinicians and researchers, with primary emphasis on Alzheimer disease and associated disorders. The journal publishes original articles emphasizing research in humans including epidemiologic studies, clinical trials and experimental studies, studies of diagnosis and biomarkers, as well as research on the health of persons with dementia and their caregivers. The scientific portion of the journal is augmented by reviews of the current literature, concepts, conjectures, and hypotheses in dementia, brief reports, and letters to the editor.
