摘要
ABSTRACT Introduction and aims: Present-day home care needs to be more efficiently organized in view of the aging of the population and the current nursing shortages. Ensuring safe medication use is part of the challenge. The number of required visits could be reduced if automated home medication dispensers (AHMD) are adequately implemented. However, the barriers and facilitators for implementation are unknown. This project explored determinants (barriers, facilitators, or both) for implementing AHMD in home care, from Dutch home care nurses’ perspective. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 15 home care nurses. Determinants were identified through thematic content analysis. The first four transcripts were coded inductively. Then, a code tree was developed based on the Tailored Implementation for Chronic Diseases checklist, consisting of seven domains. Each code/determinant was then labelled as a barrier, facilitator, or both. Results: The most relevant domains were innovation factors, individual health professional factors, and patient factors. The most frequently mentioned barrier was the required unplanned visits when patients did not withdraw medication within the scheduled time limit (alarm). According to our respondents, carefully assessing patients’ eligibility (e.g., learnability) and properly instructing and guiding them will help prevent these alarms from occurring. Next to these determinants, motivating patients to start using an AHMD and professionals having sufficient knowledge and confidence were the most frequently mentioned facilitators. Conclusion: This project provided an overview of 78 determinants from nurses’ perspective for implementation of AHMD in home care. This can form the basis for developing strategies for implementing AHMD in home care. Further research is recommended to investigate the perceived determinants from the patients’, relatives’, and informal caregivers’ perspectives, and to prioritize the determinants from all perspectives.
