“…There are also individual factors related with a higher Person-Centered Care such as lower burnout [ 15 , 17 , 20 , 21 ], less work overload [ 15 , 21 , 22 , 23 ], higher intrinsic motivation [ 24 ], and less stereotypes towards ageing [ 14 , 20 ].…”

Despite efforts to promote good care, many institutionalized older adults (IOA) experience elevated neglectful conditions and reduced person-centered care approaches. Based on the job demand–control model, this study aimed to analyze the relationship between nursing home professionals’ personal and organizational factors and good care provided to institutionalized older people. Data was collected through a self-administered survey completed by 208 nursing home staff members. Three dimensions of personal factors (i.e., personal accomplishment, depersonalization, and negative old age stereotypes) were significant predictors of good care. Depersonalization and negative old age stereotypes were negatively associated with IOA, and both good care and personal accomplishment were positively associated with good care in nursing homes. Only one work-related factor (i.e., management support) was positively associated with good care. Personal factors may play a significant role in good care. Management support offers a promising mechanism to promote good care among nursing home professionals. The findings support the need to change the focus on entirely completing care tasks to providing good care of residents in nursing homes that promotes management support, personal accomplishment, personalization and positive old age consideration, attitudes, and behaviors. Policies and interventions should be developed to address in a more humanized way.

“…The results indicate that the two new instruments ‐the PCCG ‐ U , and the PCCG ‐ R , have good psychometric properties for measuring the level of PCC provided in care centres, including suitable test‐retest reliability, which supports their future use in research and in the applied field. These two questionnaires, together with the PCCG‐S (Martínez et al, 2020), comprise part of the first test battery in Spanish for discovering and comparing the opinions of the principal actors in residential care with regard to the level of Person‐Centred Care offered. This convergent evaluation of the parties involved (users, families, staff) is highly recommended for combining the different, complementary views of residential care quality (De Silva, 2005; Martínez, 2016; McConnell & Meyer, 2019; Ree et al, 2019).…”

“…The PCCG‐S questionnaire has a unifactorial structure, and is composed of 23 Likert‐type items (1 = completely disagree , 10 = completely agree ). The reliability of the test is excellent, with internal consistency (α = .95, ω = .95) and test‐retest reliability: r = .88 (Martínez et al, 2020).…”

“…PCC is associated with reduced agitation of people with dementia, and higher quality of life for residents (Díaz‐Veiga et al, 2014; Lood et al, 2019; Poey et al, 2017), as well as reduced job stress and higher job satisfaction for staff (Røen et al, 2018). One urgent, key aspect to encourage the rigorous use of PCC in applied contexts is having standardized measuring instruments available that allow us to evaluate the level to which this approach is applied in services, and thus improve their quality (Martínez et al, 2020).…”

“…The first instrument produced using this model was the Person ‐ Centred Care Gerontology Staff questionnaire (PCCG ‐ S) , which is aimed at determining the level of PCC given in older people care centres in the opinion of the professionals working in them. It has excellent psychometric properties (Martínez et al, 2020).…”

Aim Develop two psychometrically sound questionnaires to assess users’ and relatives’ opinions of Person‐Centred Care. Evaluate the convergence between the perspectives of the different agents involved in Person‐Centred Care in the older people: Users, relatives and staff. Examine the relationships between Person‐Centred Care and care quality and the users’ perceived psychological well‐being. Design We used the psychometric technology involved in the development and analysis of tests for the first objective. For the second and third objectives, we used a descriptive‐correlational design. Method The sample comprised 636 clients of older people care residences, 742 relatives and 844 healthcare professionals. The mean age of the centre residents was 81.62 years old (SD = 9.51), the mean age of relatives was 56.7 (SD = 10.15) and the mean age of healthcare professionals was 39.94 (SD = 10.56). Data collection lasted 10 months, between May 2017 and March 2018. Two new Person‐Centred Care instruments were developed and the correlations between different agents were calculated. Results The newly developed measurement instruments demonstrated a unidimensional structure and high internal consistency and stability over time (users: α = .96, ω = .96, r = .91; relatives: α = .97, ω = .97, r = .95). There was high convergence between the Person‐Centred Care evaluations from the staff, users and relatives, with correlations ranging between .62 and .76. Conclusion The new measurement instruments were reliable and valid. The opinions of the staff, users and relatives about Person‐Centred Care in the residential centres were in good agreement. Furthermore, Person‐Centred Care was associated with care quality and residents’ psychological well‐being. Impact A gap in the literature is an examination of the extent to which assessments of Person‐Centred Care made by staff agree with those by users of the services and their relatives. In order to do that, two new measuring instruments were developed, which showed excellent psychometric properties, and are able to reliably, validly evaluate Person‐Centred Care.
