Abstract:
Post-acute and long-term care (PALTC) delivery is complex, and the COVID-19 pandemic created additional complexities. This qualitative study investigates how PALTC administrators responded to the pandemic, factors that impacted their leadership role and decision-making. Participants from North Carolina (N = 15) and Pennsylvania (N = 6) were interviewed using an interview guide containing open-ended questions. The results revealed three themes: (1) critical knowledge and competencies; (2) resources, supports and essential actions taken; and (3) psychosocial impact. The findings suggest communication and relationship building were the most useful competencies. Lack of staff was a primary stress point during and after the pandemic.
