Maggiori informazioni sul libro

This book examines critical factors identified by long-term care recipients that affect their quality of life and provides recommendations for programs and policies to enhance well-being in care communities. It highlights the role of leadership and staff in nursing homes and residential care settings as gatekeepers to resident well-being, often unaware of how their decisions influence quality of life. Adopting a life domain approach, the book builds on research that identifies key drivers of care recipients' quality of life, including relationships, autonomy, activities, meals, environment, and care. It offers a framework to better understand resident quality of life and presents practical suggestions for stakeholders such as administrators, managers, front-line staff, family members, and policymakers, whose actions shape the experiences of long-term care residents. This work serves as a guide for leaders and managers in long-term care communities, as well as policymakers overseeing health and human services, to effectively structure care environments that maximize quality of life and well-being for residents.
