Construção e validação de conteúdo de instrumento de autoavaliação da qualidade do cuidado em instituição de longa permanência para pessoas idosas

Abstract Objective To develop and validate the content of a self-assessment instrument for the quality of care in Long-Term Care Facilities for Older Adults (Instituições de Longa Permanência para Idosos - ILPIs), named QualificaILPI. Method A methodological study conducted between March and December 2021. The instrument was developed based on a multidimensional quality model, Brazilian legislation, and literature research. It contains quality standards for self-assessment of ILPIs in the dimensions of environment, home, care, family and community involvement, work team, and management. Each standard is described and followed by a scale with parameters to classify the level of ILPI quality as incipient, intermediate, or consolidated. The modified Delphi Technique was employed for validation by a committee of 10 experts regarding the relevance of the standard for ILPI quality assessment, the appropriateness of objectives, the evaluation scale, and clarity, allowing for comments. The standard was retained when there was 75% agreement among the experts. The instrument was also evaluated by the target audience, consisting of coordinators from 10 ILPIs selected for convenience. Results In the first assessment cycle, three standards were excluded, and two new ones were created. In the second cycle, the dimension of one standard was changed, and two standards were combined. In the end, 29 standards remained, divided into six dimensions. The target audience, ILPI managers, suggested changes in the wording of some standards. There was a consensus of 80% or higher for all standards. Conclusion QualificaILPI has the potential to contribute to monitoring ILPIs, promoting the improvement of care offered to residents.

Virtual Teams in the University: A Critical Literature Review and A Research Agenda

The incentives for the internationalization of universities and the digitalization of teaching driven by the situation of COVID-19 have increased the operation of virtual work teams in higher education institutions, both in terms of groups of students and groups of researchers. The objective of this study is to explore the evolution of academic research concerning virtual teams within university settings, aiming to delineate prominent research trajectories and outline a prospective agenda for future inquiry in this domain. This work involved a systematic review of the literature in the WoS and Scopus databases to identify what, when, who, where and how virtual teams in universities have been researched. The PRISMA method was used to guide the data collection process. Forty-seven articles were identified as relevant for analysis. Despite the significant development of academic research on virtual teams since the end of the last century, the necessary attention has still not been given to the specific case of virtual teams in universities. Most of the research has been conducted in the United States; however, previous research reveals that cultural aspects are relevant variables in the performance and efficiency of virtual teams, so it is advisable to extend this type of research to other countries and cultural contexts. In addition, we can also see that most of the works identified have analysed work teams formed by students, and there are very few studies on virtual teams of researchers, despite the importance of these teams in the context of encouraging the internationalization of research networks. Moreover, the review of the content of the articles as well as the future lines of research have been organized around a life cycle model, considering three categories: inputs, operating process and outputs-results. The second category is the most developed to date.

The goal of this study was to find out how entrepreneurship self-concept, work motivation, and risk taking on human resource department performance and business overall performance at Jordan private universities. To test the study's assumptions, 311 samples from the research study were taken, looked at, and argued about. Entrepreneurship, self-concept, work motivation, and risk taking were all found to affect the success of both human resource department performance and business overall performance. The first factor was the self-concept, which can be seen in self-esteem, self-image, and self-identity. The second most important factor is work motivation, which includes intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, goal setting and orientation. Risk taking is the third and final important factor. It includes participants' risk tolerance, their perception of risk, and their outcome expectations. The study found that helping employees to understand their job nature and how they can do it, increasing the motivation on job work, and increasing the employees’ demands for taking risks can improve performance ratio in human resource department, and that having an organizational structure that encourages teamwork and work teams can improve the ability to solve problems and improve work performance, which in turn affects overall productivity. This study adds new information to a new area that needs more research to fully understand how workload, work pay, and organizational structure pressures all affect each other. This study's topic, Jordan private universities, is both new and important because it could help scientific private universities to improve how they run and give better education output.

ЗАРУБІЖНИЙ ДОСВІД УПРАВЛІННЯ ОРГАНІЗАЦІЯМИ

The article is devoted to the topical issues of management of organizations in the world. It is determined that effective enterprise management is an important prerequisite for success in any business, regardless of its size and scope of activity. The purpose of the article is to study the systems and methods of business management in the world. To implement this task, scientific methods of content analysis, analysis, synthesis, comparison, and system method were applied. It is noted that the organization of enterprise management in the world is determined by local cultural management paradigms. In modern European cultures, emphasis is placed on interaction with employees, which is aimed at maximizing their interests and is manifested in respect for human dignity. Also important is the rational use of resources and readiness for innovation in the technological and scientific spheres, which contributes to the introduction of managerial innovations, albeit with a certain delay, into the activities of organizations and enterprises in Ukraine. The American experience is based on flexible management, because American enterprises often have a flexible hierarchical structure. In addition, an important factor is corporate culture, although the manifestations of this culture may be different in different companies, but common to them is a democratic environment in which employees can freely express their ideas and opinions. In particular, Ukrainian enterprises can learn from the Asian experience in creating long‐term development strategies and plans. Asian cultures emphasize community and cooperation, so an approach to creating a team work environment and promoting mutual support among employees is important. Most Asian enterprises prefer long‐ term relationships in work teams, with partners and customers, which promotes stability and trust in the market. The conclusions emphasize that the need for a competent combination of world experience with Ukrainian realities will become an important task for managers when establishing an effective management system shortly.

Взаимосвязь уровня профессионального выгорания и удовлетворенности трудовыми отношениями медицинских работников с разными социально-демографическими характеристиками

Professional burnout is one of the current phenomena that attracts researchers and practitioners focused on the study and socio-psychological support of labor subjects. In connection with current social challenges, the attention of society and specialists is directed to representatives of helping professions, whose activities are associated with the formation of negative emotional symptoms. The purpose of the article is to identify the characteristics of professional burnout and satisfaction with relationships in a team of medical workers with different socio-demographic characteristics (age, length of service, position). The work was carried out at the request of the customer - one of the perinatal centers in the city of Omsk. 374 employees of this organization took part in the study. The following diagnostic tools were used: the author's questionnaire “Communicative Professional Environment”, a questionnaire to determine the level of mental burnout (MBI) (K. Maslach and S. Jackson, adaptation by N. E. Vodopyanova). The diagnostic survey revealed that the level of satisfaction with staff relationships is high against the background of a low level of professional burnout. However, frequency analysis made it possible to identify a risk group - employees with average, high and extremely high rates of professional burnout in the amount of 117 people. It has been established that among the medical workers of the center there is an inverse relationship between burnout, its components (emotional exhaustion, depersonalization and reduction of personal achievements) and job satisfaction, its components (the desire to work in the organization, a sense of comfort in the team, team cohesion, satisfaction from the work performed). A greater number of significant relationships between the level of professional burnout and satisfaction with labor relations were found among young employees with short work experience.

Health Literacy: Professional Competence for 21 st Century Healthcare

Health literacy consists of a set of cognitive and social skills and the ability of individuals to understand and use health information. Low levels of health literacy leads to higher rates of hospitalization, mortality, and premature death, as well as poor adherence to treatment regimens, reduced prevention and poorer health status, with a negative impact on individual and collective health. In Portugal, the most vulnerable groups (the elderly, the unemployed, low levels of education) have "problematic" or "inadequate" levels of literacy. This article therefore reflects on the importance of creating training and capacity-building programs for health teams and professionals in health literacy, concluding that the responsibility for promoting health literacy is a collective one, with health professionals playing a central role in this regard, and that it is up to health organisations to prepare work teams in health literacy and monitor their progress

The Integration Path of Network-Based Ideological and Political Education and Financial Aid-Based Education in the New Era

Abstract How to transform the financial aid work under the financial aid and human development system in colleges and universities from simply “providing financial aid” to primarily “focusing on education, with financial aid as a supplement” for truly achieving poverty alleviation, fostering intellectual growth, and supporting students in pursuing their aspirations, is an area of focus that has long been explored by student work teams in colleges and universities. This paper focuses on the development of a network platform in the new era and designs an integration path for the network ideology and financial support work to address the challenges of the financial support work in colleges and universities. An evaluation index system for the integration path was built with the fuzzy hierarchical analysis method. Based on this system, the coupling coordination degrees of network-based ideological and political education and financial aid-based education are calculated separately in each dimension to assess their synergistic effect. The comprehensive evaluation scores of network-based ideological and political education and financial aid-based education are above 90, indicating the high teaching effectiveness of both kinds of education. The coupling degree of network-based ideological and political education with financial aid-based education falls within the range of [0.912, 0.963], which is within the range of 0.8~1, demonstrating a high-level coupling effect. Additionally, the minimum and maximum values of the range for coupling coordination degree are 0.917 and 0.975, respectively, which both exceed 0.9, reaching a high level of coordination. These results indicate that network-based ideological and political education is well coupled with financial aid-based education, which validates the scientificity of the coordination path for network-based ideological and political education and financial aid-based education.

ГАРМОНИЗАЦИЯ СОЦИАЛЬНО-ПСИХОЛОГИЧЕСКОГО КЛИМАТА В КОЛЛЕКТИВЕ КАК СПОСОБ ПОВЫШЕНИЯ ЭФФЕКТИВНОСТИ ДЕЯТЕЛЬНОСТИ СОТРУДНИКОВ КАДАСТРОВОЙ ПАЛАТЫ

The article presents the results of a study of the relationships between various aspects of the socio-psychological climate of the team and the effectiveness of professional activities. The author also presented a program for harmonizing the socio-psychological climate in the production department of the cadastral chamber and assessed its effectiveness. The socio-psychological climate of a team is understood by the author as a system of relations of its members to the team as a whole. Based on a theoretical analysis of the literature, we have derived the following definition of the socio-psychological climate of an organization’s team: the socio-psychological climate of a team is a relatively stable emotional reflection by members of the organization’s team of the nature of the interpersonal relationships that have developed between them, as well as their attitude to joint activities, determined by micro and macroenvironment and the specifics of the activity itself. For the socio-psychological climate, the past experience of the team, expected results and current activities are of great importance. The socio-psychological climate, therefore, is based on interpersonal relationships and, accordingly, is an indicator of their condition. Creating a favorable socio-psychological climate is a constant, systematic, systematic work of the organization’s leaders, work team managers, ordinary employees and psychologists in the organization. We also considered such a parameter as the effectiveness of professional activities. This concept is considered by A.K. Markova, on whose theoretical concept we relied, as a correlation between objective and subjective characteristics of work activity. The objective ones were subject-specific and technological performance indicators that can be observed and recorded in the process of work and which can be assessed based on the results of the activity itself. Purely psychological indicators of effectiveness, which have a personal meaning for a person and are expressed in the attractiveness of work, acted as subjective ones. One of the leading subjective criteria for the effectiveness of professional activity is satisfaction with this activity, as an opportunity to satisfy basic needs in it. The article presents a program for harmonizing the socio-psychological climate in the production department of the cadastral chamber, and describes the results of assessing its effectiveness.

Lesão Cortoperfurante complicada numa Enfermeira dos Cuidados de Saúde Primários: um Relato de Caso

Introduction Accidents at work resulted from sharp injuries are frequent and preventable events among health care professionals. The prevalence of secondary infection depends on several factors related to the patient itself, the health care worker and the adherence to preventive protocols. In this article, the authors pretend to present a case report of an accident involving a primary health care professional that suffered a sharp injury and, also, to alert about the significance of appropriately reporting. Case Description Woman, 54 years old, a nurse in primary care with 27 years of experience. Background history, among others, ulcerative colitis under immunosuppressive therapy. At the end of shift, she cuts herself with a contaminated scalpel blade while draining a panaritium, resulting in a superficial wound in the second finger of right hand. Notification of the occurrence was made 36 hours after the accident due to the development of local cellulitis. Later, the infection complicated with likely osteomyelitis. Two cycles of antibiotic therapy have been completed and the imagiological revaluation showed bone integrity and signs of tenosynovitis of the second finger flexors. The nurse is absent from work for 15 weeks and awaits a Physical and Rehabilitation Medicine evaluation. Discussion Health care professionals are at greater risk of accident at work, namely, of suffering sharp objects injuries. According to the literature, accidents of this nature are more frequent among female nurses and occur mainly on hands, as in the case described. Among the factors that increase the probability of these occurrences are the high workload and the number of hours worked. Standing out as a particularity of this case is the acquired immunodeficiency secondary to methotrexate therapy as the main condition of the more prolonged disease. This AW had an impact on the professional and the dynamics of the work team, with the need to adjust tasks and temporarily hire another professional. Conclusion As sharp injuries are frequent and preventable, it is important to encourage their reporting. On one hand, to protect the health of injured professionals and on the other hand, so that preventive and corrective measures can be developed. Additionally, it is relevant to know the history of the patient, of the health care professional and the mechanism of injury, to stratify the risk of associated secondary infection. In conclusion, the cooperation of Occupational Health services with other health professionals is important for the adequate management of occupational risks. KEYWORDS: occupational accidents; sharps injuries; incident reporting; family practice; occupational medicine; workplace conditions.

Enhancing Export Performance: Do Energizing Team Learning and Opportunity Recognition Matter?

The furniture export performance study departs from an awareness decline in Export Performance (EP) and an innovation index below Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, and the Philippines in 2021. Thus, this paper aims to build an empirically tested model to build EP. The critical concept is the importance of building innovation through learning and utilizing learning to transform current challenges into opportunities to address various challenges. Organizations must get an agile work team by building Energizing Team Learning (ETL). ETL is offered to strengthen Digital Technology (DT), whose use has been strategically attached to the furniture industry to achieve performance and provide various solutions to problems facilitated by Opportunity Recognition (OR). This study's theoretical gap contradicts the DT to EP research results. The direction of this paper is to develop an appropriate strategy to encourage the presence of EP through ETL, which is used to facilitate the presence of OR to create EP. This research involved 194 furniture exporters in Central Java. The analytical method used is Structural Equation Modeling with the AMOS 22 analysis tool. This study uses the perspective of Knowledge-Based View Theory and empirically proves that DT has an insignificant effect on EP, and ETL and OR managed to mediate DT to EP fully. The strategy to optimize EP is to strengthen DT in the organization, build learning agility through ETL, and apply learning contexts in capturing OR so that implementing this strategy provides empirical evidence to be an optimal strategy. Managers need to make practical implications for the contribution of knowledge built up through the talents of people placed in ETL.
