  Title The information behaviour of health care assistants: a literature review Type Journal Article
  Year 2018 Publication Nursing Praxis in New Zealand Abbreviated Journal  
  Volume 34 Issue 3 Pages 6-17  
  Keywords Health-care Assistants; Information ehaviour; Literature Review; Social Contexts  
  Abstract Reviews existing research literature to examine health-care assistants'(HCA) and other paid caregivers' information-seeking behaviour. e.g. identifying a need for information; and seeking, avoiding or sharing information. Identifies four social contexts for the behaviour: home health-care, residential dementia care, nursing homes, and acute hospital environments. Garners this data to support registered nurses (RN) who delegate direct care to a growing body of unregistered health-care assistants. Highlights the influence that situational factors and social contexts have on information behaviours.
