Work relationships between registered nurses (RNs) and practical nurses (LPNs) are changing as new models of nursing care delivery are introduced to create more flexibility for employers. In Canada, a team-based, hospital nursing care delivery model, known as Care Delivery Model Redesign (CDMR), redesigned a predominantly RN-based staffing model to a functional team consisting of fewer RNs and more LPNs. The scope of practice for LPNs was expanded, and unregulated health care assistants introduced. This study began from the standpoint of RNs and LPNs to understand their experiences working on redesigned teams by focusing on discourses activated in social settings. Guided by institutional ethnography, the conceptual and textual resources nurses are drawing on to understand these changing work relationships are explicated. We show how the institutional goals embedded in CDMR not only mediate how nurses work together, but how they subordinate holistic standards of nursing toward fragmented, task-oriented, divisions of care.

Purpose: This study aimed to test the effectiveness of High-Need Community-Dwelling Older Adults Care Delivery Model (HCOACDM) in Taiwan. Methods: A cluster randomized controlled trial with repeated measures design was conducted in eight community care centers, involving 145 high-need older adults who were assigned to the intervention group or comparison group. The HCOACDM was provided over 6 months. Functional ability, quality of life, depressive symptoms, and health care and social service utilizations were measured at baseline, at 3 months, and 6 months into the intervention. The participants’ satisfaction was measured at the end of 6-month intervention. Results: Positive effects were shown on all variables in the intervention group at both the 3-month and 6-month intervals (all p < .05). The intervention group had a higher satisfaction with care delivery than the comparison group ( p < .05). Discussion: The promising findings supported a long-term implementation of the HCOACDM as applicable and beneficial.

Abstract The effectiveness of sufficient care coordination for high-need community-dwelling older adults has not been discussed. This study aimed to examine the effectiveness of a newly-developed care delivery model for high-need community-dwelling older adults. A cluster randomized controlled trial with repeated measures design was employed. A total of 145 high-need older adults participated in the study and were randomly assigned to either the intervention group or comparison group. A categorized list of care services based on the types of high-need older adults as the intervention allowed care coordinators to make adequate care service linkages. The intervention period ranged over 6 months with regulated home visits and assesssments. Functional ability, quality of life, depressive symptoms, and healthcare and social service utilizations were measured at baseline, and at 3 and 6 months into the intervention. The participants’ satisfaction with care delivery was measured at the end of 6-month intervention. Results showed that the intervention group had a better functional ability, a higher quality of life, reduced depressive symptoms, and more efficient healthcare and social service utilizations than the comparison group at both the 3-month and 6-month intervals (all p &lt; .05). By the end of the 6-month study, the intervention group were more satisfied with the care service linkages than the comparison group (p &lt; .05). The positive effects of providing a categorized list of care services for care coordinators to make service linkages have been evidenced by the outcomes. The promising findings supported a further longer-term implementation of the care delivery model.
