BACKGROUND
TimeSlips creative storytelling program is beneficial for persons with dementia and caregivers, but no studies have qualitatively explored participant experience.
METHODS
Ten residents in a skilled nursing care unit participated in 2-hour-long TimeSlips sessions per week, for 6 weeks. Semistructured interviews of participants and staff members were conducted to elicit perceptions of TimeSlips. Thematic analysis was used to evaluate qualitative data.
RESULTS
There were specific benefits for residents (increased creativity, improved quality of life, positively altered behavior, and involvement in meaningful activity), staff members (learning new practices, developing a deeper understanding of residents, involvement in meaningful activity, and thinking creatively around programmatic challenges), and the nursing home community (nurturing relationships and improved atmosphere).
CONCLUSION
Involvement in TimeSlips can engender benefits for residents, staff, and nursing home communities. Future research is needed to quantitatively assess whether the benefits noted in this study can longitudinally improve quality and lower cost of long-term care.
背景
时光流逝创意故事讲述项目对痴呆症患者及其护理人员有益，但尚无研究对参与者的体验进行定性探索。
方法
一家专业护理机构的10名居民每周参加时长2小时的时光流逝活动，共持续6周。对参与者和工作人员进行了半结构化访谈，以了解他们对时光流逝活动的看法。采用主题分析法对定性数据进行评估。
结果
该活动对居民（提高创造力、改善生活质量、积极改变行为以及参与有意义的活动）、工作人员（学习新做法、加深对居民的理解、参与有意义的活动以及围绕项目挑战进行创造性思考）和养老院社区（培养人际关系和改善氛围）都有特定益处。
结论
参与时光流逝活动能给居民、工作人员和养老院社区带来益处。未来需要进行定量研究，以评估本研究中提到的益处是否能从长期上提高长期护理的质量并降低成本。
