Job Satisfaction for Caregivers and Other Employees in Innovative Long-Term Care Homes for Residents With Cognitive
Abstract:
New housing models have emerged in Europe, Australia, the United States, and Canada. Intended for individuals with neurocognitive disorders, these models are characterized by a philosophy centered on the person, self-determination, liberty of choice, flexibility of care, acceptance of risk, and autonomy. Work and care are organized according to the pace and preferences of residents. The current multiple case study highlights the main sources of job satisfaction for caregivers and other employees in four innovative residential settings. Five themes are addressed as perceived by 58 employees: Work Motivation, Work Organization, Collaboration and Decision-Making Latitude, Quality of Work Life, and Continuing Education. These data will help inform clinical staff, policymakers, and the scientific community about clinical and organizational practices that contribute to job satisfaction in innovative residential settings.
