Declarations
:
: The study was conducted in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki. Prior to participation, each informant signed an informed consent form. Both oral and written information regarding the study’s purpose and the right to withdraw at any time without providing a reason were provided to the informants during recruitment and again before the interview. The confidentiality of the recorded conversations was assured, and informants were informed that their identities would remain anonymous in the final report and analysis. Research projects that require approval from the Swedish Ethical Review Authority are defined as “medical research including biological materials, personal health data, or a physical intervention”. Ethical approval was waived by the Swedish Ethical Review Authority, as the current study was not considered to require approval, given that the data collected related only to the informants’ work routines. Participation in the study was approved by the managers of the dementia care homes.
