Standardized Screening and Assessment of Older Emergency Department Patients: A Survey of Implementation in Quebec
Cost-effective methods have been developed to help busy emergency department (ED) staff cope with the growing number of older patients, including quick screening and assessment tools to identify those at high risk and note their specific needs. This survey, from a sample of key informants from all E...

description | Cost-effective methods have been developed to help busy emergency department (ED) staff cope with the growing number of older patients, including quick screening and assessment tools to identify those at high risk and note their specific needs. This survey, from a sample of key informants from all EDs (n=111) in the province of Quebec (participation rate of 88.2%), investigated the implementation of these tools and barriers to implementation. Questionnaires (administered either by telephone or by self-completion) included characteristics of the ED, characteristics of the respondent, use of tools, and method of implementation. Barriers to the implementation of these tools included lack of resources for screening and follow-up, misunderstandings of the difference between screening and assessment tools, and need for adaptation of the tools to the local context. Education of staff and pre-implementation adaptation and testing are needed for successful implementation. Des méthodes efficientes ont été développées pour aider le personnel des départements d'urgence (DU) à s'ajuster au nombre croissant de patients âgés, leur procurant des outils de dépistage et d'évaluation permettant d'identifier les patients plus à risque ainsi que les besoins spécifiques à ceux-ci. Ce sondage des informateurs-clé de tous les départements d'urgence (n=111) de la province de Québec porte sur l'implantation de ces outils ainsi que sur les barrières à leur implantation. Les questionnaires (complétés soit par téléphone ou auto-administrés) incluaient : les caractéristiques du département d'urgence (DU), les caractéristiques des répondants, l'utilisation d'outils ainsi que le mode d'implantation. Les barrières à l'implantation de ces outils sont : le manque de ressources pour dépister et faire le suivi, la méconnaissance de la différence entre outils de dépistage et d'évaluation et enfin, la nécessité d'adapter les outils aux contextes locaux. La formation des intervenants et des essais préalables sont nécessaires à l'implantation fructueuse. |
