The Sense of Security and Associated Factors Among Older Home Care Clients: A Register Study
Strong family support manifested as the primary societal explanatory factor for a sense of security, whereas home care support services did not play a contributing role. Promoting and enabling good and active family relationships and involving families in the planning of care is a strategy that home health care providers can use to support a sense of security and well-being among older adults living at home.
