The development of knowledgeable nursing assistants as creative caregivers (KNACC)
Open accessAbstract
Certified nursing assistants (CNAs) provide 80% of direct care in long-term care settings and are critical to maintaining resident well-being. Arts-based approaches to enhancing meaningful engagement have the potential to empower CNA ownership in the process of improving patient-centered care. We held a series of focus groups with CNAs (n = 14) to adapt arts-based creative caregiving (CCG) techniques for use in long-term care. Iterative revisions focused on CCG techniques, factors influencing implementation, and usability. The Knowledgeable Nursing Assistants as Creative Caregivers (KNACC) manual developed from the adapted CCG describes training guidelines and instructions to facilitate CNA use of creative caregiving techniques in direct care.

With training in active listening, empathic response and other relevant skills, direct care workers can reduce social isolation, provide emotional support and, with additional training, help administer nonpharmacological treatments to prevent or reduce distress associated with dementia.
“With training in active listening, empathic response and other relevant skills, direct care workers can reduce social isolation, provide emotional support and, with additional training, help administer nonpharmacological treatments — such as music and pet therapy and person‐centered bathing — to prevent or reduce distress associated with dementia.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
