Sample and Setting
The researchers employed purposive sampling which is the most appropriate to use in a qualitative study. They considered the family members of elderly patients and chose those who they judged would be best able to relate their experiences in the ED. They made sure that different age groups, gender, and civil status were represented.

The generational cohort segments have been revealed to be exceptional with their form, character, views, and core values.
