Contextualising missed care in two healthcare inquiries using a socio-ecological systems approach.

Abstract：

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES:To examine missed care within two patient safety public inquiries using a socio-ecological model. BACKGROUND:Missed care is a care which has been omitted or rendered incomplete. Possible outcomes of missed care have been identified including poor patient outcomes such as higher mortality rates, reduced care quality and lower patient satisfaction, job dissatisfaction, staff burnout and higher attrition rates. DESIGN:A qualitative design, specifically document analysis, was used to review two serious case reviews. METHODS:Between August-December 2018, two public patient safety inquiries were examined using a document analysis method. Both inquiries are based in acute hospital care settings of nursing (UK) and midwifery (Ireland). The Standards for Reporting Qualitative Research checklist provided a framework to report the study methods, context, findings, analysis and interpretation. RESULTS:Findings highlighted instances of missed care related to practice which contributed to poor patient outcomes. Missed care was located within contingency factors, such as unintended negative patient health and safety outcomes in multiple system levels which resulted in care deficits. CONCLUSIONS:A socio-ecological model enabled consideration of how multi-system deficits combine to impact nursing and midwifery care delivery. To tackle current and future practice challenges, broader contextual issues that influence front-line cases should be identified and addressed before they create conditions which result in substandard care. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE:This paper adds to the scholarship on missed care by incorporating a greater contextual lens. Findings suggest that some factors contributing to missed care events may be systemic in origin. Practice, policy, research and education should foster nurses' and midwives' review of the totality of influencing factors impacting missed care and care deficits. Consequently, early warning signs and proactive responses at a system level should be inherent in all settings that nurses' and midwives' practice.
