Effects of a Flipped-Learning Empowering Leadership Program on Nurse Leaders, Staff, and Residents in Long-Term Care Facilities
2026年8月17日 更新者：I-Hui-Chen
Flipped Learning for Leader Empowering Leadership in Aged Care: A Pilot Cluster Quasi-Experimental Study
This pilot cluster quasi-experimental study tested a 12-week empowering-leadership training program delivered through flipped learning to nurse leaders in residential long-term care facilities, compared with a conventional brochure-based approach.
Six facilities in central Taiwan participated: two (one public, one private) received the flipped-learning program for their leaders, and four (one public, three private) served as controls.
The study examined effects at three levels: nurse leaders' own empowering leadership behaviors and facility-level nursing staff retention/turnover and resident hospitalization rates; nursing staff's perceptions of their leader's empowering behaviors, burnout, psychological empowerment, and job satisfaction; and residents' health status, quality of life, and satisfaction with care.

干预/治疗 |
|---|---|
|
实验性的：Flipped Learning Intervention
2 residential long-term care facilities (1 public, 1 private): 10 nurse leaders, 40 nursing staff, 100 residents.
Nurse leaders received a 12-week flipped-learning empowering leadership program.
|
A 12-week, 24-hour empowering leadership program (one 2-hour module per week).
Each week, a 60-minute instructional video was posted for asynchronous pre-class learning, followed by a 1-hour face-to-face session (small-group discussion, case studies, brief presentations, practical exercises), with instructor summary.
Post-class activities included reflection and assignments.
|
|
有源比较器：Conventional Learning / Control
4 residential long-term care facilities (1 public, 3 private): 11 nurse leaders, 40 nursing staff, 86 residents.
Nurse leaders received a printed brochure with identical content, without structured flipped-learning sessions.
|
Nurse leaders in the control group received a printed brochure covering the same empowerment/empowering-behavior content as the intervention group, without structured flipped-learning sessions.
The research team maintained regular contact to answer questions but provided no additional training.

大体时间：Baseline (at enrollment) and 3 months after intervention completion (approximately August 2019)
|
Modified version of the Leader Empowerment Behavior Scale, a 27-item measure completed by nursing staff about their leader, across 5 subscales.
Each item rated on a 7-point Likert scale; total score range 27-189, with higher scores indicating more empowering behavior as perceived by staff (better outcome).
Cronbach's α=0.85; test-retest r=0.71.
