A multicomponent restraint reduction program (MRRP) significantly improved nursing staff knowledge, perceptions, and attitudes regarding physical restraint use in Korean nursing homes. These positive effects were sustained for three months post-intervention.

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Nursing Education
  • Healthcare Quality Improvement

Background:

  • Physical restraint use is prevalent in Korean nursing homes, indicating a need for effective reduction strategies.
  • Nursing staff knowledge, perceptions, and attitudes are critical factors influencing the use of physical restraints.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the impact of a multicomponent restraint reduction program (MRRP) on nursing staff in Korean nursing homes.
  • To assess changes in nursing staff's knowledge, perceptions, and attitudes concerning physical restraint use.

Main Methods:

  • A cluster-randomized, controlled trial with pretest-posttest design involving 122 nursing staff from two Korean nursing homes.
  • The experimental group received the MRRP, including educational sessions and unit-based consultations.

  • Data on knowledge, perceptions, and attitudes were collected immediately before and after the intervention, and at 1 and 3 months post-intervention.

    • Main Results:

    • Significant improvements were observed in the knowledge (p < .001), perceptions (p < .001), and attitudes (p = .011) of nursing staff in the MRRP group compared to the control group.
    • These positive changes were sustained over the 3-month follow-up period.
    • The MRRP demonstrated effectiveness in enhancing staff attributes related to restraint use.

    Conclusions:

    • The MRRP is an effective intervention for improving nursing home staff's knowledge, perceptions, and attitudes regarding physical restraint use in older adults.
    • Further research with larger samples and rigorous methods is recommended to explore intervention components and sustainability.
    • Findings offer valuable insights for educational programs targeting healthcare professionals and families involved in elder care.
