<strong>The</strong> implementation <strong>of</strong> a model <strong>of</strong> person-centred practice in older person settings<br />

<strong>In</strong> the nurse sample, the number <strong>of</strong> significant changes in factors across each <strong>of</strong> the<br />

sites ranged from a maximum <strong>of</strong> 12 and a minimum <strong>of</strong> 1 (see Table 4.5). <strong>The</strong><br />

average number <strong>of</strong> construct changes was 3. All sites reported at least one<br />

significant change. <strong>The</strong> largest impact was reported at Site 10 with 12 constructs<br />

being changed. Examination <strong>of</strong> the impact <strong>of</strong> the programme on factors shows that<br />

significant changes were reported on each <strong>of</strong> the factors but the biggest impact<br />

occurred on the factors ‘satisfaction with pay and prospects’, ‘satisfaction with<br />

training’ and ‘intention to leave’.<br />

<strong>In</strong> the care worker sample, the number <strong>of</strong> significant changes in factors across each<br />

<strong>of</strong> the sites ranged from 0 to 7 (see Table 4.6). Examination <strong>of</strong> the impact <strong>of</strong> the<br />

programme on factors show that significant changes were reported on each <strong>of</strong> the<br />

factors but the intervention had the biggest impact on changing the factors ‘conflict<br />

with other staff ‘and ‘adequate staffing and resources’. Both these constructs are<br />

indicative <strong>of</strong> positive change towards more person-centred practice environments.<br />
