A Study on
Healing
Environmental
Factors in the
Elderly Patients
with Long-Term
Care
Abstrak
The aim of this study is to identify the factors of
the healing environment for the elderly receiving
long-term care, as perceived by healthcare
providers in long-term care hospital and nursing
home. The participants were 130 healthcare
providers who worked at long-term care hospitals
and a nursing home in a region. The data was
collected by the structured questionnaire and
analyzed by using SPSS/Win 22.0. The mean of the
healing environmental importance perceived by
participants were 4.76(0.46). Among the healing
environmental domains, comfort scored highest
with 4.64 (0.32) on average, followed by
sociality with 4.41 (0.58), stability with 4.35
(0.53), territoriality with 4.31 (0.61), and
livability with 4.21 (0.66). There was no
significant difference in the mean importance of
any domains in the healing environment between
long-term care hospitals and nursing home where
the respondents worked. The healing
environmental factors affecting the perceived
healing environmental importance of participants
were natural view, safety/security, and privacy
(R2= 0.29). The research findings suggest that
healthcare providers in long-term care facilities
need to make efforts to recognize the importance
of the healing environment and to reflect it in the
health care plans.

Metode
2.1. Research Subjects and Data Collection
A structured questionnaire was used to explore the
healing environmental among 134 healthcare
providers working at nursing homes and long-term
care hospitals in a region, who understood the
purpose of this study and agreed to participate in
the research. 130 questionnaires were analyzed,
with the exception of 4 containing lots of nonresponses.
2.2. Research Instrument
The questionnaire was composed of 8 items for the
personal characteristics of the respondents, 2 for
necessary spaces and the importance of the healing
environment, and 23 for healing environment
evaluation elements. The items for healing
environment evaluation elements were drawn from
Woos (2010) research on the healing environment
factors in geriatric hospitals [18]. A total of 22
items were used to assess the healing environment
in terms of its physical, psychological, and social
characteristics. 8 items for comfort and 5 for
stability were used to cover the physical
characteristics, 3 for territoriality and 2 for livability
to cover the psychological characteristics, and 4 for
sociality to cover the social characteristics. A fivepoint likert scale was used to measure the healing
environment evaluation elements and awareness of
the importance of the healing environment: 5 very
important, 4 somewhat important, 3 average, 2
unimportant, and 1 totally unimportant.
As for reliability of the instrument for evaluating
the healing environment, Cronbachs Alpha=0.93
for the entire instrument and 0.85, 0.83, and 0.84
for the sub-factors, such as physical, psychological,
and social factors, respectively.
2.3. Data Analysis
For the statistical analysis, SPSS/Window 22.0 was
used. The data was analyzed by using descriptive
statistics, independent t-test, and stepwise multiple
regression.

Hasil
This study was conducted in healthcare providers
working at elderly care facilities. The subjects attached
great importance to the healing environment in longterm care hospitals or nursing homes and a place for
family counseling was found to be most necessary to
create a healing environment, followed by a resting
room, a healing garden, and a sunshiny walk. Comfort
was found to be the area in the healing environment
having the most positive impact on the improvement in
the quality of life for elderly inpatients, followed by
sociality, safety, territoriality, and livability. The
detailed factors affecting the importance of the healing
environment were natural view, safety/security, and
privacy. On the basis of these results, if healthcare
providers include the elements of the healing
environment in nursing and treatment plans in a
reasonable way, it would contribute to safety, health
promotion and the improvement in the quality of life
for elderly patients. Further research needs to make
more systematic exploration into the association
between these factors of the healing environment and
health-related outcomes.
This study had some limitations. Because this study
was conducted in healthcare providers at hospitals and
a nursing home in a single region, the findings may not
be generalized.

The measures
The Dementia Quality of Life Instrument
(DEMQOL and DEMQOLProxy), The Cornell
Scale for Depression in Dementia (SCDD) and the
Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory (CMAI) were
used to measure the quality of life of 12 residents
three months before the new garden and atrium was
constructed and three months after the new garden
and atrium construction. The Mini-Mental State
Examination (MMSE) was used to assess the level
of dementia of each resident at baseline._ENREF_6
The Cohen-Mansfield Agitation Inventory is a
caregivers rating questionnaire consisting of 29
agitated behaviours in patients with cognitive
impairment. The agitated behaviours can be
generalized into wandering, physical aggressions,
inappropriate vocalizations, hoarding items, sexual
disinhibitions and negativisms. The scale ranges
from 1, the participant never engages in the specific
agitated behaviour to 7, the participant manifests
the behavior several times an hour on average.
Ratings pertain to the two weeks preceding the
