A broad range of organizational issues can have an impact on client outcomes in residential services for people with intellectual disabilities, and staff psychological factors are increasingly being recognized as important. This review explores some of the recent literature on staff attitudes, attributions, well being and other factors that may impact on outcomes for residents.
Staff beliefs are associated with the relationship between challenging behaviour and burnout experienced by staff; resident outcomes such as placement breakdown may also be influenced by staff attributions. There is also a body of evidence emerging that suggests staff psychological factors may influence the quality of physical healthcare received by people with intellectual disabilities.
Sufficient evidence exists to suggest that clinicians should routinely consider assessing and evaluating staff psychological factors in clinical interventions in order to assess their potential impact on client care. Further research is required, particularly, to evaluate the specific impact of staff psychological factors on resident outcome.
广泛的组织问题可能会对智障人士居住服务的客户结果产生影响，并且越来越多的人认识到员工心理因素很重要。这篇综述探讨了一些关于员工态度、归因、幸福感和其他可能影响居民结果的因素的最新文献。
员工的信念与员工经历的挑战性行为和倦怠之间的关系有关；居民的结果，如安置失败，也可能受到员工归因的影响。还有越来越多的证据表明，员工的心理因素可能会影响智障人士接受的身体保健的质量。
有足够的证据表明，临床医生在临床干预中应定期考虑评估和评估员工的心理因素，以评估其对客户护理的潜在影响。需要进一步的研究，特别是评估员工心理因素对居民结果的具体影响。
