Abstract
Background and objectives: The Individualized Positive Psychosocial Interaction (IPPI) Program is an adaptable, evidence-based intervention. IPPI trains nursing home care partners to engage residents living with moderate to severe dementia in preference-based, one-to-one interactions using emotion-focused communication. We sought to understand provider-driven adaptations made to the IPPI Program and whether the adaptations made were fidelity-consistent.
Research design and methods: Data were collected from n=78 interviews with n=23 nursing home provider champions who led a quality improvement project (QIP) to implement the IPPI with 3 to 5 residents per care community. Using content analysis, we report quantitative data on the adaptation characteristics according to the Framework for Reporting Adaptations and Modifications-Expanded (FRAME) core modules and participant quotes to illustrate adaptations.
Results: Champions reported 34 adaptations, with an average of 2.6 adaptations per nursing home. The majority of IPPI adaptations pertained to implementation (65%; n=22), while 17% (n=6) were content and 17% (n=6) were context. Motivation for adaptations ranged from organizational (e.g., time constraints) to recipient (e.g., cognitive capacity). Most adaptations made to the IPPI protocol by care partners were fidelity-consistent (92%; n=33).
Discussion and implications: Care partners' adaptations to the IPPI made the intervention more resident-centric. Future healthcare intervention providers must consider the user perspective and encourage adaptations that further tailor to the user, as long as the adaptations are fidelity-consistent.
期刊介绍:
The Gerontologist, published since 1961, is a bimonthly journal of The Gerontological Society of America that provides a multidisciplinary perspective on human aging by publishing research and analysis on applied social issues. It informs the broad community of disciplines and professions involved in understanding the aging process and providing care to older people. Articles should include a conceptual framework and testable hypotheses. Implications for policy or practice should be highlighted. The Gerontologist publishes quantitative and qualitative research and encourages manuscript submissions of various types including: research articles, intervention research, review articles, measurement articles, forums, and brief reports. Book and media reviews, International Spotlights, and award-winning lectures are commissioned by the editors.
