摘要

Background This article focuses on knowledge development and health professionals' opportunities to use evidence-based practice (EBP). We studied registered physiotherapists (PT), occupational therapists (OT) and nurses (RN) in Swedish elderly-care institutions, a sector known for high turnover and shortages of competent staff. Objective To examine the perspectives of healthcare providers on professional knowledge development and EBP in their organization. Methods We conducted on-site qualitative interviews with a purposive sample of PTs, OTs and RNs, in six elderly care institutions. Situational analysis was used to analyze the material. Results Three discursive professional positions were found: 1) Professional ambition in confusing work organization; 2) Professional ambition in a knowledge-promoting work organization; and 3) Professional indifference with few aspirations for knowledge development. Professional aspirations toward knowledge development were high in two of these positions, whereas the third represents a slightly different approach with fewer aspirations for knowledge development. Linked to these professional approaches to knowledge development is a continuum of aggravating or facilitating factors within the work organization, including varying degrees of support from leadership of the organization, as well as few opportunities for rewards. Discussion and conclusions It is concluded that elderly care needs to develop strategies for evidence-based practice in order for the sector to become a sustainable arena for health professionals' career development, and in order to improve the quality of care for the elderly.
