Abstract: | Because of the rapidly growing number of persons with dementia in the Netherlands, challenges arise in the current healthcare system and dementia care. At the same time, changes take place in dementia care. The quality of life of the individual person with dementia (PwD) becomes important, and new approaches for dementia care are developed. One of these approaches is person-centered care (PCC), where the PwD is the center of care, instead of the disease. The aim of PCC is to improve the wellbeing of PwD and job satisfaction of healthcare professionals. However, the implementation of PCC is hindered by the digital communication system MyCaRe that is incompatible with the care process. Furthermore, it is unknown what the experiences, facilitators, barriers, and needs are of healthcare professionals at the nursing home regarding PCC and the aim of this study is to explore these. The resulting research question is: ‘To explore the diffusion of PCC interventions for PwD living in nursing homes from the perspective of healthcare professionals.’ |
