简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to strengthen the understanding of advance care planning (ACP) in family members of older adults in residential care homes with a nurse-led, motivational interview (MI) educational intervention.The main question it aims to answer is: The feasibility of the nurse-led, motivational interview educational intervention to promote family members' understanding of ACP.
Participants will receive a nurse-led, motivational interview educational intervention to see if the nurse-led, motivational interview educational intervention works in strengthening family members' knowledge on ACP and readiness for initiating conversations on ACP with their loved ones.
详细描述
Targeted issue: Lack of feasible method exists to empower family members of older adults in residential care homes to engage in advance care planning (ACP).
Population: Family members who are identified by a resident aged above 65 years old in residential care homes.
Intervention: A nurse-led, stage-tailored, motivational interview (MI) educational intervention.
Study aim: To evaluate the preliminary feasibility of the nurse-led, motivational interview educational intervention to promote family members' understanding of ACP.
Study method: This is a mixed-methods design, including an intervention trial and qualitative process evaluation interview. Participants will receive a nurse-led, motivational interview educational intervention and research staff will track their readiness for ACP at three-time points (before the intervention [T0], 2-week [T1], 3-week [T2] post-intervention). In addition, a post-intervention interview, regarding participants' experience of receiving the intervention, will be conducted.

主要结局
Change from Baseline in Family Members' Readiness for ACP at 2 Weeks
时间窗: 2 weeks
Family members' readiness for ACP will be measured by the researcher-developed family caregivers' ACP engagement survey (FACP-10), which consists of 10 items rated on a 5-point Likert scale. The survey assesses family caregivers' self-reported levels of ACP knowledge, readiness to discuss ACP with a loved one, self-efficacy in initiating ACP conversations with a loved one and barriers to such initiation, and emotional perceptions of and attitudes toward ACP, as well as whether having the necessary communication tools for ACP conversations. The scale scores range from 10 (the lowest) to 50 (the highest).Higher score indicates a higher readiness for ACP. Investigator developed the instrument based on the key domains reported in the Advance Care Planning Engagement Survey (ACPES) and the constructs identified in a systematic review of family caregivers' roles in ACP. The pilot data demonstrated adequate reliability of the scale in Hong Kong family caregivers.
