Managers' Perspectives of Quality of Care in Service Housing and Home Care Services: A Qualitative Study.
Article in Gerontology & geriatric medicine. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to illuminate facilitators and barriers to the quality of care in service housing and home care services, as described by managers. In total, 17 service housing and home care service front-line managers participated in this study. The interviews were conducted in Finland during October 2021 using semi-structured interviews. Qualitative content analysis was used to analyze the data. Described facilitators to the quality of care included: staff dedication and motivation, a positive psycho-social working environment, sufficient staffing, coaching management, and optimized tasks. Described barriers included: increased efficiency demands, staffing challenges, inefficient division of labor, conflicts within the working community, and disruptions due to COVID-19. The results suggest that recruiting and retaining sufficient dedicated and motivated staff is paramount to ensuring quality of care from the managerial perspective, and it seems changes in the working culture may support quality of care in a cost-efficient way.
