    How do the characteristics of context influence the work of facilitators when implementing a standardised educational intervention targeting nursing home staff to reduce restraint in dementia care?
    (Queen Margaret University, Edinburgh, 2015) Mekki, Tone
    This research is part of a larger study - a sequential mixed method education intervention targeting staff in 24 Nursing Homes (NHs) in Norway to reduce use of restraint and psychotropic drugs. Building on a previous successful intervention, we used the Promoting Action on Research Implementation in Health Services (PARIHS) prospectively to combine cluster randomized controlled trial, participatory action research (PAR) and ethnography to design and evaluate the effectiveness of 2 day staff education and 1 hour monthly coaching during 6 months in two rounds (12 x 2 NHs). In my research that is the primary focus of this thesis, four teams of eight facilitators facilitated the intervention and simultaneously participated in PAR to co-construct knowledge of hindering and promoting implementation factors. A 'Creative Hermeneutic Knowledge Co- Production' (CrHeKCoP) model blending paradigmatic and epistemological assumptions from critical and participatory worldviews was created and used in spirals of 10 mini-cycles of actions to co-construct knowledge of the implementation process.
