abstract: 'Ongoing demographic change is leading to an increasingly older society
|
|
|
|
and a rising proportion of people in need of care in the German
|
|
|
|
population. Therefore, the professional group of outpatient caregivers
|
|
|
|
is highly relevant. Their work is characterised not only by interacting
|
|
|
|
with patients in a mobile setting but also by working in shifts. Health
|
|
|
|
behaviour under these specific working conditions is crucial for
|
|
|
|
ensuring long-term work ability and performance. Little is known about
|
|
|
|
the health behaviour of German outpatient caregivers and its potential
|
|
|
|
impact on their work. The aims of the study were (1) to examine health
|
|
|
|
behavioural patterns (nutrition, exercise, smoking, regeneration) of
|
|
|
|
outpatient caregivers, (2) to illuminate their personal health-promoting
|
|
|
|
behaviours, and (3) to identify potential work-related factors
|
|
|
|
influencing their health behaviour. Fifteen problem-centred interviews
|
|
|
|
were conducted with outpatient caregivers working in Northern Germany in
|
|
|
|
the period January-April 2020. Interviews were analysed by using
|
|
|
|
qualitative content analysis. Outpatient caregivers reported improvable
|
|
|
|
nutrition and hydration, with simultaneous high coffee consumption, low
|
|
|
|
physical activity, poor regeneration (breaks and sleep quality), and
|
|
|
|
good personal health-promoting behaviour (e.g., back-friendly habits),
|
|
|
|
although the majority were smokers. Barriers to the implementation of
|
|
|
|
health-promoting behaviours were a high perception of stress due to
|
|
|
|
increased workload and time pressure, while aids to better
|
|
|
|
health-promoting behaviour were described as being social support and
|
|
|
|
personal resources. The respondents perceived their working conditions
|
|
|
|
as potentially influencing their health behaviour. On the basis of their
|
|
|
|
descriptions, various practice-relevant strategies were derived. The
|
|
|
|
data explore a potential need for outpatient care services to develop
|
|
|
|
interventions on behavioural and structural levels that can help create
|
|
|
|
healthier working conditions for their employees so these caregivers can
|
|
|
|
adopt better health behaviours.'
