Abstract

This qualitative study used conventional content analysis of interview data to examine nursing staff members’ experiences with Household Model implementation in a nursing home setting. Staff members were recruited from the skilled nursing center post implementation and completed individual interviews (N=16). Participants described the impact of implementation in relation to three categories: antecedents, explicit reactions and change consequences. Participants described barriers and facilitators to implementation as well as outcomes such as role strain, feelings of isolation and harder working conditions. This study provides opportunities for further examination of nursing staff members’ experiences with person centered care models in nursing homes, how those experiences may relate to effectiveness of implementation and the need for support of nursing home staff.
