The purpose of this qualitative interpretive design was to explore the perspectives of researchers, health care providers, policy makers, and decision makers on key risks, concerns, and emerging issues related to home care safety that would inform a line of research inquiry. Defining safety specifically in this home care context has yet to be described; consequently, gaining insight from various stakeholders about safety issues relevant to the home care sector is necessary in order to inform strategic directions for future research. To begin to map a research agenda, a three-part environmental scan was conducted: (a) a pilot study with home care recipients and providers; (b) key informant interviews with researchers, health care providers, policy makers, and decision makers; and (c) a review of literature in three topic areas. Only the results of the key informant interviews are reported here.
这种质性解释性设计的目的是探究研究人员、医疗保健提供者、政策制定者和决策者对于与家庭护理安全相关的关键风险、问题及新出现问题的看法，从而为一系列研究探究提供信息。在家庭护理背景下对安全进行具体界定的情况尚未得到描述；因此，有必要从不同利益相关者那里了解与家庭护理部门相关的安全问题，以便为未来研究的战略方向提供信息。为了初步制定研究议程，进行了三部分的环境扫描：(a) 对家庭护理接受者和提供者的试点研究；(b) 对研究人员、医疗保健提供者、政策制定者和决策者的关键 informant 访谈；(c) 对三个主题领域文献的综述。这里仅报告关键 informant 访谈的结果。
