Hello researchers, l would value all thoughts on the methodology of Interpretive Description, with specific reference to ontology and epistemology guiding a qualitative research study. I would also value thoughts on critical pragmatism and reflective practice in capturing the voices of aged care personal workers, who are critically important but are rarely invited to the table.

Hi i am new to research and would like to ask for some advise about which database will be suitable if I would like to study the typology about care home or aged care facilities design / architecture?

I found the Cohen-Mansfield scale, but it is for weekly use. I'm looking for the same type of rating scale or grid that can be used evey day by home caregivers, so it has to be easy to fill. Thank you for your help!

I work in the aged care system, mainly with people who have a diagnosis of dementia, and am currently doing a bachelor of dementia care with UTAS

Hello to everyone,

We are waiting for your articles on aging and long-term care. Review process takes 3 weeks

The major goal of the Journal of Aging and Long-Term Care (JALTC) is to advance the scholarly contributions that address the theoretical, clinical and practical issues related to aging and long-term care. The JALTC, while making efforts to create elderly care services at the best quality available that are more humane, that pay special attention to people’s dignity, aims from the perspective of the whole aging process- to discuss Social Care Insurance as a human right, to contribute elderly care to be transformed into an interdisciplinary field, to integrate elderly care services and gerontological concepts and to create more effective collaboration between them, to enhance the quality of elderly care services and the quality of life of caregivers from medical, psychological and sociological perspectives, to highlight the cultural factors in elderly care, to increase the potential of formal and informal care services, to provide wide and reachable gerontological education and training opportunities for caregivers, families and the elderly.

The Journal of Aging and Long-Term Care (JALTC) is being established as an open access, quarterly peer reviewed journal that accepts articles in English. Articles submitted should not have been previously published or be currently under consideration for publication any place else and should report original unpublished research results. The journal does not expect any fees for publication. All articles are available on the website of the journal with membership.

I am currently in a PhD programme in Queensland University of Technology, Australia. My research project has to do with the development of a curricula framework for aged care education in an African setting. I am such of possible frameworks that I can utilise in my work.

I wish to publish an article on the outcomes of an outreach program in residential aged care facilities and am looking for journals.

I'm involved in a research project about intimacy and sexuality in residential aged care and we are interested in how this term might be used/overused to 'diagnose' behaviour in people living with dementia.

There are many frailty measurement tools used in hospitals and in primary care services. Should we use different frailty measurement tools across the different settings, or should we just use one frailty measurement tool for all settings?

Does anybody know a scale that can be used to construct an index for gender, based on videos of consultations between doctors and patients? Thanks!

I am looking for a tool to screen residents of aged care facilities to measure social and emotional well-being that could be used by undergraduate students.

The relationship between built environment and the quality of the elderly with a focus on spaces to promote social interaction.

In some of them; the kind of work, the law of protection to the elderly workers and the age of retirement is different.

Admittedly, elderly persons and their carers can be abused simply because of misunderstanding, lack of respite or just plain malice. I personally find that situations where the child abuses his parent whom he looks after or where the younger shows disrespect for their parents in public can be reduced through effective and sustained education of moral values to children. Perhaps various factors are in play. On the one hand, we can have the law protect elderly against abuse. But, there are limitations of the law. It may be because there is a lack of moral values imparted to children that causes abuse to parents and that might just be due to the law emphasising too much on rights and individualism which fuels this.

I'm writing a research proposal regarding the correlation of CAMs and their influence on management of chronic nociceptive pain in long-term care

Seniors are (compared to others) hesitant to embrace financial/banking technologies (ex. mobile banking apps). In some cases the lack of trust, skill, and literacy prevent the necessary technology acceptance.

A lot of family members give support daily to the elderly people. The elderly people are inscreasing and what will the future be? Is the health care, society or the family responsible?
