OBJECTIVES: The provision of palliative care in nursing homes (NHs) is of paramount importance, a realism underscored by the frailty and medical complexity of the residents. However, palliative care (PC) education tends to be resource-intensive both for educators and healthcare workers (HCWs). The aim of this study was to investigate how PowerFacts, a video animation series that taught basic PC to NH HCWs in Singapore impacted their knowledge, attitudes and confidence.
METHODS: A cohort study design was adopted for the study. A total of 264 NH HCWs across 12 NHs in Singapore participated in the study from January 2021 to October 2022. Participants were assessed using a 20-summative multiple-choice question assessment, a 30-item Frommelt Attitude Toward Care of the Dying Scale (FATCOD) and four questions on their confidence level before and after the PowerFacts course.
RESULTS: Paired t-test was performed. Significant changes were noted in the knowledge and confidence score post-intervention. The knowledge score improved significantly from preintervention (12.2±3.5) to post-intervention (15.8±3.4; p<0.01). The confidence score increased significantly from 14.7±2.7 to 16.7±2.2 (p<0.01). However, the FATCOD score did not reveal any significant changes between preintervention and post-intervention results (p>0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: PowerFacts has demonstrated its potential as a valuable addition to the array of teaching methods available to NH HCWs. Future studies are required to evaluate the impact of animation on patient care and clinical practice.
