In a larger study of applicants to a long-term care facility (HEW/BHSR—formerly NCHSRD—supported Research Grant HS00470), a discriminant function was developed to distinguish between persons clinically judged as suited to residency in a long-term care facility from those judged less suited. Studying only those who were eventually institutionalized, this instrument was used to classify applicants. Based on pre- and post-measures derived from interview data, it was found that the “suited” group experienced an increase in life satisfaction, while the “less suited” group either stayed the same or decreased in life satisfaction.

The article presents the results of the preliminary survey and pilot application of the methodological toolkit for the improvement of certain competencies, which are part of the soft skills of professionals in the long-term care sector in Bulgaria. Based on the survey the authors define 2 target competencies, namely conflict management and empathic interaction. These skills are considered a part of the scope of emotional intelligence and its constituent dimensions and authors use Daniel Goleman’s ability-based model as a base for their conceptual frame and theoretical explanations. In order to present their thesis, the authors perform a soft skill analysis of the long-term care sector; define the construct emotional intelligence and justify their choice of a theoretical model for the subsequent survey. On this basis, they develop a training design for the development of these skills and present the results achieved through its pilot application. The study includes 62 participants randomly divided into a test and control groups. The level of targeted skills is measured (before and after) and the authors report a significant increase in those skills (empathic interaction, net effect 1.87; conflict management, net effect 1.75). In conclusion, the authors open a discussion on the importance of emotional management as an essential part of any profession related to health care and underline its importance for the quality of caregiving services.

Abstract To buffer the risk of declining life satisfaction among a Veteran cohort residing within a Veteran’s Affairs long term care facility, a new model of care called Individualized Non-Pharmacological Services Integrating Geriatric Health and Technology (INSIGHT) therapy was developed and evaluated. Consistent with the INSIGHT therapy model, traditional psychotherapy interventions including reminiscence, behavioral activation, and relaxation exercises were modified such that they could be delivered on a digital platform. A paired sample T-test was performed to identify the effects INSIGHT Therapy had on Veteran satisfaction with life. Findings indicated that Veteran life satisfaction ratings the month prior (M= 19.6522) to the initiation of INSIGHT intervention and the month following three months of INSIGHT intervention (M=22.4783) show that the satisfaction with life increased among residents (t(22)=-2.334, p=.028). Effect size = 0.489. These results suggest that INSIGHT therapy interventions help to contribute to an increase in life satisfaction among an older adult Veteran cohort residing within a Veteran’s Affairs long term care facility.
