Care Systems

Long-term care (LTC) for older adults is an essential part of how health and social care systems respond to population ageing. Different long-term care systems in different countries have taken differing approaches to quality assurance, ranging from inspection-based regulatory systems to data and reporting-based regulatory systems. The significant variability in the ability of long-term care facilities to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic has led to increased recognition of the role of standardized data in informing structured approaches to quality assurance. The International Prevalence Measurement of Care Quality (in Dutch: Landelijke Prevalentiemeting Zorgkwaliteit – LPZ) was developed to guide continuous quality improvement in long-term care facilities. This special article describes the LPZ tool, developed to provide input for the learning and improvement cycle of multidisciplinary teams in the LTC sector and to help improve care quality.

Despite the growing importance of long-term care for older adults, there has been limited attention to its quality assurance issues in Japan. To start planning the initiation of continuous quality improvement in long-term care hospitals, we explored how nurses and care workers themselves perceived current approaches to quality assurance and improvement on their ward. We interviewed 16 licensed nurses and nine care workers, transcribed and analyzed data using qualitative content analysis techniques, and derived six categories: keeping clients alive is barely possible, the absence of a long-term care practice model, the lack of quality indicators, long-term care hospitals as places for castaways, client quality of life as a source of satisfaction, and conflict between staff and client well-being. To develop continuous quality improvement in Japanese long-term care hospitals, it may be first necessary to introduce a practice model of long-term care and mechanisms to evaluate quality.

ABSTRACTQuality assurance packages for common health problems are being developed for use in long term care settings. Each package includes a criteria map outlining explicit process and outcome criteria, a reviewer's manual and data summary forms. The packages were developed for use by direct care providers in long term care facilities. Established criteria are applied to records on resident care in order to identify areas which require remedial actions. A feasibility study to assess the use of the packages in eleven nursing homes is reported.
