abstract = {Theoretical models propose the environment as a factor
influencing the quality of life (QoL) of nursing home
residents with dementia. This study investigates whether the
observed QoL differs depending on the type of care
unit.DemenzMonitor is an exploratory, observational study
involving annual data collection in German nursing homes
(2012-2014). For this analysis, we selected residents with a
recorded diagnosis of dementia and severe cognitive
impairment. QoL was measured with the proxy assessment
QUALIDEM. Four care unit types were investigated: large
integrated, large segregated, small integrated, and small
segregated.We did not find a significant difference between
the care units. During the 2 years, the observed QoL was not
affected by any of the care unit types in a statistically
significant or clinically relevant manner. However, a
significant interaction effect between time and care unit
types was found.Structural and organizational
characteristics of care units, which in turn have
implications for residents characteristics and the quality
of care, may influence the QoL of residents. This may
explain the interaction we observed.},
