Hospital Accreditation

Abstract Background: Hospital Accreditation is defined as the systematic evaluation of hospital against explicit standards. In the implementation of accreditation, nursing staff, due to their large population, and their direct and continuous performance in providing services, have a key role in the development of this program. However, nurses confront with some challenges in this regard. Considering that quantitative research cannot show the depth and richness of the implementation process and the effects of the accreditation program in hospitals; Therefore, this qualitative study and content analysis was conducted to explain the experiences of nurses regarding the implementation of the hospital accreditation programs. Methods: The present study is a qualitative study using conventional qualitative content analysis method that was conducted in two teaching hospitals in Tabriz. In this study, in-depth semi-structured individual interviews were conducted with eligible participants. Data analysis was performed through content analysis based on Granheim and Landman model.Results: In this study, data analysis resulted in the extraction of 4 categories of structure, execution, education and attitude, and 8 subcategories regarding the nurses' experiences of implementing the accreditation programs.Discussion: The results of this study showed that the implementation of the accreditation process is affected by many factors. Therefore, knowing more about these factors and using the experiences of staff involved in this process, have significant impacts on its better implementation.

Background: Establishing appropriate communication with cancer patients is necessary to make decisions for them and involve them in the care process to prevent the adverse consequences of cancer treatment. Thus, the qualitative study on the challenges experienced by oncology nurses can lead to a better understanding of these challenges and help these nurses acquire advanced communication skills. Objectives: This study was conducted to explain the communication challenges experienced by oncology nurses during providing care to cancer patients by applying a qualitative content analysis approach. Methods: This qualitative study was conducted with the participation of 18 nurses who were selected by the purposive sampling method, working in the oncology departments of Iran’s hospitals in 2021. Semi-structured interviews were held for data collection. After transcribing the interviews, data analysis was performed using the Granheim and Landman (2004) method. The MAXQDA software (2020) was used for data management. The criteria proposed by Lincoln and Guba were used to assure data accuracy and reliability. Results: Thirty subcategories, eight categories, and four themes were extracted following data analysis. The themes included the nurse’s close relationship with cancer patients as a double-edged sword, curvy and sinusoidal professional communication for oncology nurses, relationship with an opposite-gender patient as a missing factor in nursing care, and marginalization of relationships during the coronavirus pandemic. Conclusions: Nurses’ challenges in communicating with cancer patients can be reduced by improving their communication skills via various strategies, including empowering nurses by employing cognitive empathy and using communication models such as the Comfort model.

Considering the concept of nursing care, it is important to understand the care and its effects on the parents, the child, and care improvement. The purpose of this study is to understand the care experiences of parents of children with Hirschsprung’s disease. In this qualitative study which was performed by content analysis approach, 12 participants were selected from mothers of children with Hirschsprung’s disease who were referred to pediatric surgeries through purposeful sampling. The data collection method was a half-structured interview. All interviews were recorded and then were handwritten word by word and data were analyzed using Elo and Kyngas qualitative content analysis method. Data analysis began from the time of the first interview and in parallel to the next interviews (simultaneous analysis). At the beginning, the first-level coding was done. Data analysis led to the emergence of 3 main themes: “erosion care, socio-economic challenges, acceptance, and position-matching,” and each of the themes included several sub-themes. The results of this study showed that parents of children with Hirschsprung despaired of concern and suffering from care which these suffers included physical, psychological, social, and material dimensions, but was also associated with satisfaction and acceptance of the disease. These findings emphasize that one of the most important tasks of nurses in clinical institutions, especially in relation to these children, is to provide proper family-centered care.

Abstract Objectives The objective of the study was to investigate how mental health professionals describe and reflect upon different forms of informal coercion. Results In a deductive qualitative content analysis of focus group interviews, several examples of persuasion, interpersonal leverage, inducements, and threats were found. Persuasion was sometimes described as being more like a negotiation. Some participants worried about that the use of interpersonal leverage and inducements risked to pass into blackmail in some situations. In a following inductive analysis, three more categories of informal coercion was found: cheating, using a disciplinary style and referring to rules and routines. Participants also described situations of coercion from other stakeholders: relatives and other authorities than psychiatry. The results indicate that informal coercion includes forms that are not obviously arranged in a hierarchy, and that its use is complex with a variety of pathways between different forms before treatment is accepted by the patient or compulsion is imposed.

Abstract Background: Nursing homes are under strong pressure to provide good care to the residents. In Norway, municipalities have applied the ‘Joy-of-Life-Nursing-Home’ strategy to increase a health-promoting perception that focuses on the older persons` resources. Implementations represent introducing changes to the healthcare personnel; however, changing one’s working approaches, routines and working culture may be demanding. On this background, we explored how the ‘Joy-of-Life-Nursing-Home’ strategy is perceived by the employees in retrospective, over a period after the implementation and which challenges the employees experience with this implementation.Method: We used a qualitative approach and interviewed 14 healthcare personnel working in nursing homes in one Norwegian municipality, which had implemented the ‘Joy-of-Life-Nursing-Home’ strategy. The analysis was conducted following Kvale’s approach to qualitative content analysis.Results: The main categories were: (a) the characteristics of care activities before implementations of ‘Joy-of-Life-Nursing-Home’, (b) how ‘Joy-of-Life-Nursing-Home’ influenced the care activities, and (c) challenges with the implementation of ‘Joy-of-Life-Nursing-Home’. Some of the informants spoke well about the implementation concerning the care quality stating “to see the joy in the eyes of the resident then I feel we have succeeded”. For informants who experienced resistance toward the implementation, they felt it was too much to document, it was too complicated, and the requirements were too many. Conclusions: Quality of care seems to have increased after the implementation, as perceived by the informants. Nevertheless, the fact that the informants seemed to be divided into two different groups related to their main perspective of the implementation is concerning. One group has positive experiences with the implementations process and the benefits of it, while the other group focuses on lack of benefits and problems with the implementation process. In order to understand what facilitates and hinders the implementation, research on contextual factors like work environment and leadership is recommended.

Primary Procedure

Because themes play such a central role in the presentation of qualitative research results, we propose a new method, Iterative Thematic Inquiry (ITI), that is guided by the development of themes. We begin by describing how ITI uses pragmatism as a theoretical basis for linking beliefs, in the form of preconceptions, to actions, in the form of data collection and analysis. Next, we present the four basic phases that ITI relies on: assessing beliefs; building new beliefs through encounters with data; listing tentative themes; and, evaluating themes through coding. We also review several notable differences between ITI and existing methods for qualitative data analysis, such as thematic analysis, grounded theory, and qualitative content analysis. The use of ITI is then illustrated through its application in a study of exiters from fundamentalist religions. Overall, the two most notable features of ITI are that it begins the development of themes as early as possible, through an assessment of initial preconceptions, and that it relies on writing rather than coding, by using a continual revision of tentative results as the primary procedure for generating a final set of themes.
