What Do We Know About Nurse Practitioner/Physician Care Models in Long-Term Care: Results of a Scoping Review. J Am Med Dir Assoc 2024; 25:105148. [PMID: 39009065 DOI: 10.1016/j.jamda.2024.105148] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2024] [Revised: 05/27/2024] [Accepted: 05/28/2024] [Indexed: 07/17/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Due to the rise of the nurse practitioner (NP) role in long-term care settings, it is important to understand the underlying structures and processes that influence NP and physician care models. This scoping review aims to answer the question, "What are the structures, processes, and outcomes of care models involving NPs and physicians in long-term care (LTC) homes?" A secondary aim was to describe the structural enablers and barriers across care models. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Seven databases were searched. Studies that described NPs and physicians working in LTC were identified and included in the review. We stratified the findings by care model and synthesized using the Donabedian model, which evaluates health care quality based on 3 dimensions: structure, process, and outcome. We then categorized macro, meso, and micro structural enablers and barriers. RESULTS Sixty papers were included in the review. The main structural influencers within 5 care models included policies on scope of practice, clarity of role description, and workload. A limited number of papers referred to the process of enabling the development of a working relationship. Thirty-five (49%) studies described resident, staff, and health system outcomes. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Although structural characteristics of NP and physician care models are described in-depth, there is less detail on the processes that occur within the NP and physician care models. We highlight structural barriers and enablers within the care models, allowing for recognition of the importance of organizational influence on the NP and physician relationship. Future work should focus on the processes of the relationships in the models by identifying the drivers and initiators of collaboration between NPs and physicians and how these relationships influence outcomes.

J Am Med Dir Assoc 2024; 25:769-773.e9. [PMID: 38428833 PMCID: PMC11259097 DOI: 10.1016/j.jamda.2024.01.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2023] [Revised: 01/19/2024] [Accepted: 01/25/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify whether differences in antibiotic prescribing practices by prescriber type and specialization in nursing home (NH) care exist for urinary tract infection (UTI) and pneumonia. DESIGN Retrospective cohort. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS This national study included antibiotic dispensings to traditional Medicare beneficiaries aged ≥65 years with UTI or pneumonia infections residing long-term (≥100 days) in US NHs between 2016 and 2018. METHODS Minimum Data Set assessment data were linked to Medicare data [Part D prescription drug, inpatient hospital (MedPAR), prescriber characteristics, and enrollment]. We compared antibiotic prescribing patterns by prescriber type [physician vs advanced practice practitioner (AP)] and NH specialization (≥90% vs <90% of all associated medication dispensings to NH residents). Antibiotic dispensing measures included the total number of dispensings and duration of therapy (median number of days supplied) by antibiotic class. RESULTS There were 264,735 antibiotic dispensings prescribed by 32,437 prescribers for 140,360 residents in 14,035 NHs. NH specialists were less likely to prescribe fluoroquinolones for UTI (22.9% NH specialist physician, 23.9% non-NH specialist physician, 21.3% NH specialist AP, 24.2% non-NH specialist AP), but more likely to prescribe fluoroquinolones for pneumonia (38.9%, 37.8%, 38.8%, 37.3%, respectively). Over time, NH specialists reduced fluoroquinolone prescribing for pneumonia to a greater extent than non-NH specialists. The duration of therapy was similar across prescriber groups for UTI, but longer among non-NH specialist APs for several antibiotic classes for pneumonia, including tetracyclines, glycopeptides and lipoglycopeptides, and metronidazole. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS There were differences in antibiotic prescribing patterns by prescriber type and specialization in NH care between 2016 and 2018. Understanding how antibiotic prescribing differs based on prescriber characteristics is essential to inform antibiotic stewardship efforts. Tailoring antibiotic stewardship efforts to prescribers by NH specialization is rational given differences in antibiotic prescribing patterns based on NH specialization.

Abstract
Objective Assess the association between clinicians who primarily practice in nursing homes (NHs) and 14-day resident outcomes following initial antibiotic dispensing for pneumonia or urinary tract infection (UTI). Design Retrospective cohort. Setting U.S. NHs. Participants NH residents aged ≥65 years who were prescribed antibiotics for pneumonia or UTI between 1 January 2016 and 30 November 2018. Methods Medicare fee-for-service claims were linked to Minimum Data Set data. Clinicians who primarily practiced in NHs prescribed ≥90% of Part D dispensings to NH residents. Outcomes included death, all-cause and infection-specific hospitalization, and subsequent antibiotic dispensing. Adjusted risk ratios were estimated using inverse-probability-of-treatment-weighted (IPTW) modified Poisson regression models adjusting for 53 covariates. Results The study population included 28,826 resident-years who were prescribed antibiotics for pneumonia and 106,354 resident-years who were prescribed antibiotics for UTI. Among the pneumonia group, clinicians who primarily practiced in NHs were associated with a greater risk of death (RR 1.3; 95%CLs 1.0, 1.6), lower risks of all-cause (RR 0.9; 95%CLs 0.8, 0.9) and infection-specific hospitalization (RR 0.8; 95%CLs 0.7, 0.9), and similar risk of subsequent antibiotic dispensing (RR 1.0; 95%CLs 1.0, 1.1) after IPTW. No meaningful associations were observed between clinicians who primarily practiced in NHs and outcomes among the UTI group. Conclusions Clinicians who primarily practiced in NHs were associated with a lower risk of hospitalization but greater risk of mortality for NH residents with pneumonia. Further examination is needed to better understand drivers of differences in infection-related outcomes based on clinicians' training and primary practice setting.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES A growing number of nurse practitioners (NPs) are employed in nursing homes (NHs) through various NP staffing mechanisms. The purpose of this study was to examine if having NH-employed NPs was associated with nursing staff turnover and resident care outcomes measured as hospital utilization, infection control citations, and substantiated complaints in NHs in 2021-2022. DESIGN A cross-sectional, retrospective study. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS A total of 13,966 NHs from payroll-based journal (PBJ) and claim-based quality measures published by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services in 2021-2022. METHODS Facilities were identified as having NH-employed NPs if at least 1 employed NP with paid working hours ≥10 per week was reported through the PBJ. We examined if having NH-employed NPs was associated with nursing staff turnover rates, unplanned hospital utilization, infection control citations, and substantiated complaints using doubly robust estimation that combined inverse probability weight representing the NH's likelihood of employing NPs and outcome regression. RESULTS Approximately, 2.8% of NHs had employed NPs. Facilities with NH-employed NPs tended to be larger, hospital affiliated, and not for profit with greater medical and nursing staff availability. In addition, a significantly higher proportion of facilities with NH-employed NPs were in metropolitan areas or states with full NP practice independence. We found that facilities with NH-employed NPs had significantly lower registered nurse (adjusted β, -5.40; 95% CI, -9.50 to -1.30) and certified nursing assistant turnover rates (adjusted β, -3.35; 95% CI, -6.29 to -0.40). Facilities with NH-employed NPs also had significantly fewer long-stay resident hospitalizations, infection control citations, and substantial complaints compared with those with no NH-employed NPs. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS This study highlights the value of NH-employed NPs to improve registered nurse and certified nursing assistant staff retention and NH resident outcomes. NH stakeholders and policymakers may consider various strategies to incentivize NP employment in NHs such as removing regulatory barriers to NP practice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aging has given birth to the demand for high-quality elderly care service and social organizations (ESOs) are gradually taking on a supportive role in the field of elderly care services.. In view of this, our study is designed to examine influencing factors of social capital within the elderly-caring social organizations. METHOD The study was conducted in four districts of Chongqing Province and a multi-stage random sampling method was used to sample 80 ESOs as subjects for the research. Through a meticulously crafted questionnaire, we gathered valuable data on internal social capital, basic information about the organization, and other variables. Univariate and Binary Logistic Regression analysis were performed on the data to explore the factors associated with social capital within the elderly-caring social organizations using IBM SPSS version 26.0. RESULT The results showed that 67(83.8%) OF ESOs surveyed were A-type institutions and 13(16.3%) B-type institutions. Among them, 49(61.3%) institutions covered an area of more than 50m2.The institutions of ≤ 2 years were 33(41.3%), 21(26.3%) were established for ≤ 3 ≤ 8 years, and residual 26(32.5%) were institutions ˃ 8 years old. ESOs that possessed 4-6 management employees were 52.422 times more likely to score high for social support (p<0.05, OR = 52.422). Accommodating special care objects and hiring 16-30 employees were significantly linked to the shared language and shared vision dimension (p<0.001, OR = 0.8) and (p<0.05, OR = 8.672), respectively. and the overall social capital dimension (p<0.01, OR = 0.221) (p<0.05, OR = 5.730). CONCLUSION ESOs with different basic conditions have different amounts of social capital. Factors such as the presence of special care and volunteer staff, a certain number of full-time staff as well as types of services rendered are accompanied with the higher internal social capital of ESOs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Before the COVID-19 pandemic, many long-term care (LTC) homes experienced difficulties in providing residents with access to primary care, typically delivered by community-based family physicians or nurse practitioners (NPs). During the pandemic, legislative changes in Ontario, Canada enabled NPs to act in the role of Medical Directors thereby empowering NPs to work to their full scope of practice. Emerging from this new context, it remains unclear how NPs and physicians will best work together as primary care providers. NP/physician collaborative models appear key to achieving optimal resident outcomes. This scoping review aims to map available evidence on existing collaborative models of care between NPs and physicians within LTC homes. METHODS The review will be guided by the research question, "What are the structures, processes and outcomes of collaborative models of care involving NPs and Physicians in LTC homes?" This scoping review will be conducted according to the methods framework for scoping reviews outlined by Arksey and O'Malley and refined by Levac et al., Colquhoun et al., and Daudt et al., as well as the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) Statement. Electronic databases (MEDLINE, Embase + Embase Classic, APA PsycInfo, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, AMED, CINAHL, Ageline, and Scopus), grey literature, and reference lists of included articles will be searched. English language studies that describe NP and physician collaborative models within the LTC setting will be included. DISCUSSION This scoping review will consolidate what is known about existing NP/physician collaborative models of care in LTC homes. Results will be used to inform the development of a collaborative practice framework for long-term care clinical leadership.
