The aim of the study is to assess family members' perceptions of the quality of nursing care of older people and its relationships between demographic factors and family involvement. Data were gathered from family members of four residential homes (N= 474) using structured questionnaires. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation, and predictive analyses. The results imply that family members' perceptions of quality were fairly positive. Age, educational background, and the frequency of visits on the ward were related with the quality perception. The association between quality perceptions and family involvement in care proved to be strong. The information and support from the staff and possibilities to participate in decision making were associated with high-quality ratings. The results demonstrate the need for formulating ward policies and training the nursing staff to allow increased family involvement and to support it in an appropriate way.
本研究的目的是评估家庭成员对老年人护理质量的看法，以及人口统计学因素与家庭参与度之间的关系。使用结构化问卷从四个养老院的家庭成员中收集数据（N = 474）。采用描述性统计、相关性分析和预测性分析对数据进行分析。结果表明，家庭成员对护理质量的看法相当积极。年龄、教育背景和在病房的探访频率与质量感知有关。护理质量感知与家庭护理参与度之间的关联很强。工作人员提供的信息和支持以及参与决策的可能性与高质量评分相关。结果表明，需要制定病房政策并培训护理人员，以增加家庭参与度并以适当方式提供支持。
