Brief Summary
Inclusion criteria for study I and II is nurse aides, registered nurses and managers working in nursing homes who register in Senior Alert. To develop an intervention aiming to reduce the risk of pressure ulcers, malnutrition, poor oral health and falls among older persons in nursing homes, workshops will be conducted in collaboration with nurse aides, registered nurses and managers (study I). Cluster randomization is going to take place via a computerized program prior to the workshops meaning that only those nurse aides, registered nurses and managers working in nursing homes allocated to the intervention group are going to develop an intervention together with the research group and then test it (study II). The remaining nurse aides, registered nurses and managers working in nursing homes in the control group continue with regular care.
