Family involvement in the nursing home: family-oriented practices and staff-family relationships.

M L Friedemann1, R J Montgomery, B Maiberger, A A Smith.   

Abstract

Staff-family cooperation in caring for elders in nursing homes is recommended but poorly understood. Family involvement and staff-family interactions in nursing homes with differing family orientations were investigated. Friedemann's (1995) system-based family theory guided the study. Of all 208 licensed nursing homes in southern Michigan, 143 completed a survey about their family-oriented practices. Family orientation was ranked accordingly. Twenty-four nursing homes were randomly selected to conduct semistructured telephone interviews with 177 family members. Data were analyzed by thematic interpretation. Findings showed a wide range of involvement patterns that promoted family connectedness, maintenance of control, growth, and learning. Families desired various types of staff cooperation and were given such opportunities in homes with high family orientation.
