In accordance with national laws and guidelines, each partner involved in data collection developed a protocol for researchers in case adverse events occur in a participating nursing home. No adverse events were reported by researchers during the trial. All respondents gave prior informed consent in writing. In Poland and the Netherlands, informed consent was not required by the ethics committees based on the conditions for consent in both countries, as the questionnaires were filled in anonymously by the respondents.
