- Rehabilitation nursing: differentiation in promoting the autonomy of the elderlyPublication . Lima, Andreia Maria Novo; Martins, Maria Manuela; Ferreira; Sampaio, Francisco; Schoeller, Soraia Dornelles; Parola, VítorIntrodução: A promoção da autonomia, através do recurso a intervenções de enfermagem que promovem a capacidade física, cognitiva e de integração social, são competências acrescidas dos enfermeiros especialistas em enfermagem de reabilitação, pelo que importa perceber se nas suas práticas estes profissionais, investem nesta promoção. Objetivos: Identificar e comparar a perceção dos enfermeiros especialistas em enfermagem de reabilitação e enfermeiros especialistas de outras áreas de especialidade. Metodologia: Estudo descrito-correlacional, transversal, quantitativo e com amostragem não probabilística em bola de neve. Para a colheita de dados foi utilizado a Escala de Autoavaliação da Autonomia dos Idosos, entre setembro e outubro de 2020. Resultados: Trata-se de uma amostra de 151 enfermeiros especialistas, 72 especialistas em enfermagem de reabilitação e 79 especialistas de outras áreas de especialidade. Todos os enfermeiros especialistas promovem a autonomia dos idosos, contudo, com menos visibilidade no desenvolvimento de intervenções de atividades instrumentais de vida diárias. Os enfermeiros especialistas em enfermagem de reabilitação percecionam promover mais a autonomia dos idosos no total da escala (p<0,05), verificando-se uma diferença maior em relação ao desenvolvimento de intervenções físicas e cognitivas (<0,001). Conclusão: Todos os enfermeiros especialistas percebem que promovem a autonomia do idoso, mas apresentam fragilidades em termos de intervenções que promovam atividades instrumentais de vida diária. Os enfermeiros especialistas em enfermagem de reabilitação percebem que promovem mais a autonomia dos idosos, provavelmente devido à implementação de programas de reabilitação voltados para essa promoção.
- Nurses’ perception regarding the promotion of older people's autonomy at covid-19: a descriptive correlational studyPublication . Lima, Andreia Maria Novo; Martins, Maria Manuela; Ferreira, Salomé; Sampaio, Francisco; Schoeller, Soraia; Parola, VítorObjective: To identify and compare the perception of general care nurses and specialist nurses about the development of interventions promoting older people’s autonomy. Method: Descriptive-correlational, cross-sectional study. The Self-Assessment Scale for the Promotion of Older People’s Autonomy was applied to Portuguese nurses in September/October 2020. Results: The sample consisted of 356 nurses, specialists and general practitioners. All nurses had the perception of promoting older people’s autonomy, with less visibility in the development of interventions involving instrumental activities of daily living. Specialist nurses have a perception of more promotion of autonomy to older people through the development of physical and cognitive interventions (p<0.01), of interventions of instrumental activities of daily living (p<0.05), and in the training of the caregiver (p<0.05). Conclusion: This study allowed emphasizing the potential relevance of developing interventions that promote older people’s autonomy, as well as the importance of raising nurses’ awareness to carry them out.
- Validation of the self-assessment Scale of Autonomy Promotion in Older Adults (EAPAI) by nursesPublication . Lima, Andreia Maria Novo; Martins, Maria Manuela; Ferreira, Salomé; Schoeller, Soraia; Sampaio, Francisco; Neves, H.L.; Parola, VítorBackground: The promotion of older adults’ autonomy is particularly relevant in nursing care. However, no instruments were found in the literature that allowed the self-assessment of autonomy promotion in older adults. Objective: To evaluate the psychometric properties of a self-assessment scale of autonomy promotion in older adults. Methodology: This is a methodological study that included the assessment of the scale’s psychometric properties, using a sample of 360 nurses. The scale’s reliability was assessed through internal consistency and construct validity using an exploratory factor analysis (varimax rotation). Results: The total internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha) was 0.983, ranging from 0.955 to 0.990 across the six factors identified. Conclusion: The scale presents good psychometric properties and consists of an instrument for nurses to self-assess autonomy promotion in older adults. This instrument can potentially increase nurses’ awareness in this area.
