Gliederung

Text

Background and Purpose: The expansion of palliative care in Germany is proclaimed by professional societies [1], [2] (Supplemental material to [3]) and specifically required by law (e.g. Hospiz- und Palliativgesetz). The orientation towards quality of life as a central target dimension of palliative care [4] is becoming increasingly important in the nursing care for the elderly in residential care homes. Accordingly, the LebenBegleiten project pursues the goal of developing an evidence-based, ethically based and quality of life-oriented practice guideline that addresses current laws and frameworks and focuses on the perspective of care home residents and their relations.

Methods and Research Focus: The study includes a participatory mix method design with a mainly qualitative orientation. By means of a document analysis [5], processes and procedures relating to palliative care were identified. Based on this, focus groups made up of employees and home counselors explored the lived practice of palliative care support [6]. Key points and elements of the developed practice guideline will be agreed upon by a Delphi survey [7].

Methodological and Theoretical Focus: Based on grounded theory methodology, quality of life-oriented palliative care in residential care homes is conceptualized as the fundament for the development of the practice guideline, thereby contributing to the professional-theoretical discourse on the subject of care in residential care homes.

Results: A poster presentation demonstrates the procedure of the participative development of a practice guideline in a mixed-method-design as well as theoretical starting points for a quality of life-oriented palliative care in residential care homes.
