Residents received an oral examination and completed the Oral Health Impact Profile (OHIP\u201014), an OHRQoL questionnaire. Care providers completed an oral health knowledge (OHK) questionnaire before and after the on\u2010site geriatric oral health education and training programme.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Results:\u2002<\/jats:bold> Oral examinations showed that 58% of the residents had extensive oral health needs. On the OHIP\u201014, the mean severity was 9.2 (SD\u2003=\u200312.0), extent (number of items rated as \u2018fairly often\u2019 or \u2018often\u2019) was 1.2 (SD\u2003=\u20032.6) and prevalence (participants rating at least one item at least \u2018fairly often\u2019) was 37.8%. Most prevalent negative impact items were about \u2018oral pain\u2019, \u2018appearance\u2019 and \u2018self\u2010consciousness\u2019. Regarding OHK, caregivers\u2019 knowledge improved following instruction from 65% correct on the pre\u2010test to 90% correct on the post\u2010test (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2003&lt;\u20030.05). Subsequent to the eight in\u2010service workshops, providers reported that physical limitations, fear of getting bitten and time constraints were barriers to providing oral hygiene to their residents.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion:\u2002<\/jats:bold> Examination data showed a high level of dental needs among the majority of residents, accompanied by significantly reduced OHRQoL. Although care providers\u2019 OHK improved following the geriatric service programme, they reported specific barriers regarding their provision of oral hygiene care to the residents.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1741-2358.2006.00119.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,5,5]],"date-time":"2006-05-05T14:45:37Z","timestamp":1146840337000},"page":"73-78","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":71,"title":["Oral health promotion among older persons and their care providers in a nursing home facility"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Rebecca","family":"Reed","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hillary L.","family":"Broder","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"George","family":"Jenkins","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Evan","family":"Spivack","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Malvin N.","family":"Janal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,5,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1754-4505.1999.tb01379.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1754-4505.1999.tb01410.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_2","first-page":"91","article-title":"Dental needs of residents and carers in elderly peoples\u2019 homes and carers \u2018attitudes to oral health","volume":"1","author":"Fiske J","year":"1992","journal-title":"Eur J Prosthodont Restor Dent"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0528.1993.tb00719.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0528.2001.290507.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1754-4505.1999.tb01380.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_2","first-page":"109","article-title":"Studies of the relationship between oral health and psychological well\u2010being","volume":"3","author":"Kiyak HA","year":"1987","journal-title":"Gerodontology"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_2","first-page":"3","article-title":"Development and evaluation of the Oral Health Impact Profile","volume":"11","author":"Slade GD","year":"1994","journal-title":"Community Dent Health"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_2","first-page":"1","volume-title":"The Adelaide Dental Study of Nursing Homes","author":"Australian Institute of Health and Welfare","year":"1999"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_2","first-page":"656","article-title":"Screening for oral cancer and precancer \u2013 a valuable new technique","volume":"48","author":"Drinnan AJ","year":"2000","journal-title":"Gen Dent"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/sj.bdj.4812252"}],"container-title":["Gerodontology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1111%2Fj.1741-2358.2006.00119.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/j.1741-2358.2006.00119.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,10]],"date-time":"2023-10-10T20:47:53Z","timestamp":1696970873000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/j.1741-2358.2006.00119.x"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2006,5,5]]},"references-count":11,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2006,6]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/j.1741-2358.2006.00119.x"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/j.1741-2358.2006.00119.x","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0734-0664","1741-2358"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0734-0664","type":"print"},{"value":"1741-2358","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2006,5,5]]}}}
