ABSTRACT

This meta-synthesis joins together qualitative evidence on the care and support provision for older adults in an African context employing the World Health Organisation International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (WHO-ICF) framework, and Ethics of Care theory as organizing schema. A search of electronic databases, plus other relevant sources produced 465 articles from which nine met inclusion criteria. The synthesis identified findings improving our understanding of the care needs of older adults, and caregiving commitment thoroughly classified by the WHO-ICF and the ethics of care theoretical frameworks. This meta-synthesis reveals the strengths and gaps in knowledge from existing studies and draws attention to the need for further research targeting older adults and caregivers’ needs in Africa.

摘要

本综合综合结合了关于在非洲背景下为老年人提供护理和支持的定性证据,采用世界卫生组织国际功能、残疾和健康分类 (WHO-ICF) 框架,并将护理伦理理论作为组织架构。对电子数据库以及其他相关来源的搜索产生了 465 篇文章,其中 9 篇符合纳入标准。综合确定的发现提高了我们对老年人护理需求的理解,以及 WHO-ICF 和护理伦理理论框架对护理承诺的彻底分类。这种元综合揭示了现有研究的知识优势和差距,并提请注意需要针对非洲老年人和护理人员的需求进行进一步研究。
