Formal caregivers highlighted the importance of balancing residents\u2019 autonomy and restrictions, the need to work systematically, and adopting a resident-centered approach. Furthermore, attention to palliative care, nutritional care, and emotional support are needed. Informal caregivers emphasized the need for providing structure, supportive conversations, and the importance of the nursing home environment itself. Attention to the transition phase immediately after admission to the nursing home, as well as guidance on future care planning, is important. There is a need for care teams that consist of knowledgeable, familiar caregivers within a care organization that (im)materially supports its staff.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Maintaining autonomy despite disease-related restrictions, providing structure, applying palliative care principles, and offering emotional support are essential components of quality of care, as emphasized by both formal and informal caregivers. Achieving this requires systematic nursing practices performed by a team of knowledgeable caregivers. Although informal caregivers\u2019 descriptions are more superficial, key elements in them are similar to those of formal caregivers.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/18796397251410253","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,17]],"date-time":"2026-02-17T14:30:01Z","timestamp":1771338601000},"page":"439-452","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Exploring quality of care through the eyes of formal and informal caregivers for residents with Huntington's disease: A qualitative descriptive study"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6020-6364","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Joyce CF","family":"Heffels","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Maastricht University"},{"name":"Huntington's Disease Center Land van Horne, Weert, The \rNetherlands"},{"name":"Institute of Mental Health and Neuroscience"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Irma HJ","family":"Everink","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Maastricht University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Raymund AC","family":"Roos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Leiden University Medical Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jos MGA","family":"Schols","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Maastricht University"},{"name":"Institute of Mental Health and Neuroscience"},{"name":"Department of Family Medicine and Care and Public Health Research Institute (CAPHRI), Maastricht University, Maastricht, The Netherlands"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0732-4406","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mayke","family":"Oosterloo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Mental Health and Neuroscience"},{"name":"Maastricht University Medical Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,17]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1186\/1750-1172-5-40"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/practneurol-2021-003074"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.brainresbull.2009.06.017"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.parkreldis.2017.08.009"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/mds.23716"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1212\/01.WNL.0000052992.58107.67"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1212\/CPJ.0000000000200471"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_9_2","unstructured":"Zorg SEL.
