“…The first structured tool developed in relation to person-centered care was Dementia Care Mapping (DCM; Brooker and Surr, 2006), which is a staff-based, dementia-specific observational tool. Today, a number of additional instruments have been developed for measuring person-centered care or dimensions of the concept.…”

Background: Person-centered care is a multidimensional concept describing good care, especially within aged care and care for people with dementia. Research studies evaluating person-centered care interventions seldom use direct measurement of levels of person-centeredness. Existing scales that measure person-centeredness need further testing. This study evaluated the psychometric properties of the Swedish version of the Person-Centered Care Assessment Tool (P-CAT).Methods: A cross-sectional sample of 1465 staff from 195 residential care units for older people in Sweden participated in the study. Validity, reliability, and discrimination ability of the scale were evaluated.Results: Confirmatory factor analysis, parallel analysis and exploratory factor analysis supported the construct validity of a two-factor solution. Reliability and homogeneity were satisfactory for the whole P-CAT as demonstrated by a Cronbach's α of 0.75. Test-retest reliability showed temporal stability of the scale, and the discrimination ability of the scale was satisfactory.Conclusion: The Swedish version of the P-CAT was found to be valid, reliable, and applicable for further use. Two subscales are recommended for the Swedish version.

“…This can offer a rich picture of the person's care experience, including the overall quality of care and factors that contribute to it. A full description of DCM can be found in Brooker and Surr (2006). However, in summary, the mapper records pre-defined codes representing each person's behaviours (Behaviour Category Codes; BCC), mood and engagement (Mood and Engageme nt Codes; ME) and the quality of staff interactions with the person with dementia (Personal Enhancers; PE's and Personal Detractions; PDs).…”

The reuse of existing datasets to identify mechanisms for improving healthcare quality has been widely encouraged. There has been limited application within dementia care. Dementia Care Mapping (DCM) is an observational tool in widespread use, predominantly to assess and improve quality of care in single organisations. DCM data has the potential to be used for secondary purposes to improve quality of care. However, its suitability for such use requires careful evaluation. This study conducted in-depth interviews with 29 DCM users to identify issues, concerns and challenges regarding the secondary use of DCM data. Data was analysed using modified Grounded Theory. Major themes identified included the need to collect complimentary contextual data in addition to DCM data, to reassure users regarding ethical issues associated with storage and reuse of care related data and the need to assess and specify data quality for any data that might be available for secondary analysis.

“…DCM is grounded in the philosophy of person-centred care (3), which recognises the importance of understanding the unique experiences and needs of each individual with dementia. Therefore, its application is said to help services to move from provision of task focussed care primarily driven by the needs of the service, to a person-centred approach where the person with dementia is at the heart of provision.…”
