Relatives of older people are often involved in their care prior to hospital admission, and may hold valuable knowledge which, if involved, could improve decision-making related to care. Hence, collaboration is required and to monitor this, valid and feasible instruments are needed. The Family Collaboration Scale (FCS) was developed for this purpose, and has been found valid and reliable. Our study tested a shorter version, while assessing collaboration between nurses and 388 relatives.
The study provided support for reliability and construct validity of the revised scale. Its feasibility may benefit from adjustments, as older relatives, those with less education and those delivering extensive help, were less likely to complete the scale. Collaboration was rated as poor to average. Poor collaboration was significantly more often reported by women and relatives reporting guilt and powerlessness.
老年人的亲属常在其入院前参与护理，可能掌握宝贵知识，若能参与其中，有助于改善护理决策。因此，需要开展协作并对此进行监测，这就需要有效且可行的工具。为此开发了家庭协作量表（FCS），并已证明其有效且可靠。我们的研究对一个较短版本进行了测试，同时评估了护士与388名亲属之间的协作情况。
该研究为修订后量表的信度和结构效度提供了支持。其可行性可能需要调整，因为年长亲属、受教育程度较低的亲属以及提供大量帮助的亲属完成量表的可能性较小。协作被评为较差至中等。女性以及表示有内疚感和无力感的亲属报告协作差的情况明显更多。
