Abstract

Abstract. Resident-to-resident aggression (RRA) is a globally-recognized problem in long-term care centers which is presently understudied among private seniors’ residences (PSRs) for independent and semi-independent older adults. This research documents the manifestations of RRA in PSRs in Québec and identifies the need to develop a program promoting wellness care and countering RRA from the viewpoint of residents who experienced it as well as employees and external intervenors who intervene in such situations. We conducted 25 individual interviews in four PSRs showing that RRA can manifest in diverse forms. The explicit and implicit needs identified refer to prevention and intervention. This research is the first to conceptualize the needs of experienced stakeholders in PSRs to develop a program promoting wellness care and countering RRA.
