Balancing formal and informal care for older persons: how case managers respond

Peckham, Allie, Williams, A. Paul, Neysmith, Sheila·2014·Canadian Journal on Aging / La Revue canadienne du vieillissement

Abstract

RÉSUMÉ Cette étude a examiné la façon dont les gestionnaires de cas de soins à domicile et en milieu communautaire dans la première ligne de la profession voir le rôle des aidants naturels et les facteurs qui contribuent aux décisions de ces gestionnaires en ce qui concerne l’allocation des ressources. La recherche pour l’étude a utilisé deux méthodes de collecte de données: (a) l’analyse secondaire des résultats de simulations de la balance de soins, réalisées dans neuf régions de l’Ontario, et (b) des entretiens en profondeur de suivi avec les différents gestionnaires de la B de S. Les résultats indiquent que les gestionnaires de cas sont d’accord à l’unanimité que l’unité des soins dans le secteur SDMC ne se limite pas à l’individu, tel qu’en soins aigus, mais englobe à la fois l’individu et le soignant. Nous avons constaté, cependant, des variations considérables dans l’assortiment et le volume des services SDMC recommandés par les gestionnaires de cas. Nous concluons que la variabilité de la prise de décision peut refléter la manque de réglementation, de meilleures pratiques, et de lignes directrices pour la responsabilité dans le secteur SDMC.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Discretion in home care can be inequitable, inadequate, or inconsistent, which may lead to sub-optimal or discrepant decisions across cases.

    “Such discretion can be thought of as inequitable, inadequate, or inconsistent, which may lead to sub-optimal or discrepant decisions across cases [51].”
  • Canadian literature has identified variable resource allocation in home care and factors including differences in older clients and caregivers, and discretion and flexibility based on professional training and insight.

    “Canadian literature has identified variable resource allocation in home care and the factors at play, including differences in the older client and caregivers themselves, as well as the discretion and flexibility based on professional training and insight [51].”

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.
