Barriers and facilitators to the use of personal protective equipment in long-term care: a qualitative study.

Background: Long-term Care (LTC) residents are vulnerable to invasive infection. Appropriate use and training on personal protective equipment (PPE) is important for protecting residents and healthcare workers (HCWs). Studies on the barriers and facilitators to PPE use are limited in LTC settings.

Objective: Characterize HCWs' perceptions of barriers and facilitators to the uptake and appropriate use of PPE in LTC facilities Calgary, Alberta.

Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with HCWs from April to October 2022. Interview transcripts were analyzed deductively to identify themes from the Theoretical Domains Framework.

Results: Seven HCWs were interviewed. Barriers and facilitators fell within six overarching themes including: availability and quality of PPE; knowing how to use PPE; familial obligations; convenience and comfort; sense of professional duty; and social influences and identity. Additional factors such as understaffing and the need for more training sessions were highlighted. Strategies to improve PPE use were identified by HCWs, including the use of PPE champions, regular audits, and constructive feedback.

Conclusion: Identification of unique barriers and facilitators regarding PPE use by HCWs in LTC will facilitate targeted interventions to improve PPE use in this setting.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Hospital Infection is the editorially independent scientific publication of the Healthcare Infection Society. The aim of the Journal is to publish high quality research and information relating to infection prevention and control that is relevant to an international audience. The Journal welcomes submissions that relate to all aspects of infection prevention and control in healthcare settings. This includes submissions that: provide new insight into the epidemiology, surveillance, or prevention and control of healthcare-associated infections and antimicrobial resistance in healthcare settings; provide new insight into cleaning, disinfection and decontamination; provide new insight into the design of healthcare premises; describe novel aspects of outbreaks of infection; throw light on techniques for effective antimicrobial stewardship; describe novel techniques (laboratory-based or point of care) for the detection of infection or antimicrobial resistance in the healthcare setting, particularly if these can be used to facilitate infection prevention and control; improve understanding of the motivations of safe healthcare behaviour, or describe techniques for achieving behavioural and cultural change; improve understanding of the use of IT systems in infection surveillance and prevention and control.
