520 |a BackgroundPalliative care needs in older persons can endanger their dignity. To provide dignity-conserving care to older persons, the Swedish Dignity Care Intervention (DCI-SWE) can be used. The DCI-SWE is built on Chochinov’s dignity model and the original version, developed and tested in UK and Scotland.AimTo describe older persons’ and their relatives’ experiences of dignity and dignity-conserving care when using the DCI-SWE in municipal health care.Research designA mixed method study with convergent parallel design.Participants and research contextThe DCI-SWE was used and evaluated in a Swedish municipality health care context. Older persons’ (n=17) dignity-related distress and quality of life were assessed after the intervention. Interviews with older persons (n=10) and their relatives (n=8) were analysed using thematic analysis.Ethical considerationsThe study followed the World Medical Association Declaration of Helsinki. Ethical approval was obtained from the Regional Ethical Review Board in Uppsala, Sweden (Reg No. 2014/312) and the National Swedish Ethical Review Authority (Reg. No. Ö 10-2019). Informed consent was collected from older persons and their relatives.FindingsThe older persons’ dignity-related distress did not significantly change over time (p = 0.44) neither was their overall quality of life (p = .64). Only psychological quality of life was decreased significantly (p = 0.01). The older persons and their relatives emphasized the importance of valuing the individual.ConclusionsThe DCI-SWE provides a forum to talk about dignity issues, but relevant competence, continuity and resources are needed. Psychological care actions and health care professionals’ communication skills training are important. To fully evaluate, the DCI-SWE a larger sample and validated instruments are necessary.
