Detailed Description
Study I The workshops (tentative plan) Groups of one-two nurse aides, one-two registered nurses and one-two managers from the nursing homes in the intervention group will form a workshop. In total, four-five workshops will be conducted. Each workshop will begin with an introductory framing of the workshop followed by addressed activities in four stations. The activities in the four stations are designed to give the participants possibility to be active in order to develop the intervention. The participants will write down conclusions of the discussions and the discussions will be audio recorded. The written documentation and the recorded discussions will constitute data and will be analyzed using content analysis.
Station one: the participants will discuss beforehand written questions based on the results of our previous studies, and literature in order to stimulate reflection and discussion. The participants will discuss how to work in a better/different way with risk assessments, care interventions and follow-ups that can contribute to improve the preventive work so that older persons are risk assessed, get the right care interventions planned, performed and evaluated to a greater extend. They will also discuss how the organization/routines around the preventive care process be developed. The participants will write down conclusions of the discussion.
Station two: the participants will discuss beforehand written questions concerning the preventive care process according to Senior Alert. The participants will work creatively to identify barriers and challenges in the preventive care process according to Senior Alert and how this process could be done in a smoother way. The participants will write down conclusions of the discussion.
Station three: the participants will discuss how the intervention could be design. Focus of the discussion will be on the core components of the intervention, e.g. context, activity, participants, time required and implementation. The participants will write down the discussion.
Station four: summary of the workshop.
The intervention (tentative plan) The intervention will be written out in detail after the workshops have been conducted, but below is a short description in accordance with the one in the Ethical approval.
The content of the intervention will focus on the importance of prevention of the risk for pressure ulcers, malnutrition, poor oral health and falls among older persons in nursing homes and the preventive process in accordance with Senior Alert. The intervention could consist of; a work sheet to facilitate clinical decisions, new way of working, educational support, films or lectures, to meet nurse aides´, registered nurses´ and managers´ educational needs, fit into their organization and facilitate the preventive nursing care regarding these health risks.
Study II Feasibility/pilot testing the intervention The most suitable method will be applied to test and evaluate the intervention. A feasibility study could be carried out to evaluate if there are any uncertainties around the recruitment, data collection and retention or the intervention itself around the optimal content, delivery and acceptability. A pilot study could be carried out to address the main uncertainties in the development work and to indicate if further evaluation should be preceded or the intervention needs to be refined.
Evaluating the intervention To evaluate primary outcome measures, register data is going to be extracted from Senior Alert six months prior and one and six months after the intervention. Data on risk assessments and preventive interventions from the instruments available in Senior Alert (described in our previous studies) will be extracted. Additionally, background data regarding older persons in terms of biological sex, age and type of health care setting will be gathered from the registry.
Descriptive and analytic analysis will be performed in IBM SPSS Statistics Windows, Version 25 (Armonk, NY: IBM Corp) for comparisons between and within the intervention and control group.
To evaluate secondary outcome measurers all the nurse aides and registered nurses working in all the nursing homes included (both the intervention and the control group) will be invited to fill in questionnaires: the Psychosocial Aspects of Job Satisfaction questionnaire, the Perceived Stress Scale stress and the Stress of Conscience Questionnaire, at baseline (prior to the workshops) and six months after the intervention. Background data as age, gender, years of work experience and educational level will be collected. For comparisons between and within the intervention and control group before and after tests will be performed. IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 25 (Armonk, NY: IBM Corp) will be used to calculate descriptive and analytic statistics.

Experimental: Intervention
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.
