Data obtained from three Midwestern nursing homes were used to identify and describe contextual factors that influenced resident care. A qualitative, emergent, case study design guided the study. In addition to 17 residents and 16 family members or friends of the respective residents, participants included 66 staff members and 9 managers involved in the planning and delivery of care to the participating residents. Data were collected via observation, semi-structured interview, and resident record audit. Contextual factors seemed to integrate or fragment care planning and delivery. Important integrators were shared values, the role of the Minimum Data Set coordinator, the role of other leaders, and family influence. Two fragmenting factors, competing demands for the staff members' time and a task orientation to care, appeared to be ubiquitous. External accountability also fragmented care to a discernible degree.
