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

Develop person-centred cultures in participating practice settings.<br />

Significant progress was made in achieving numerous attributes <strong>of</strong> a person-centred<br />

culture. <strong>The</strong>re is no end point to person-centred cultures, thus further development is<br />

still needed. If this is not systematically planned and nurtured then the new cultures<br />

will begin to fall apart.<br />

Systematically measure or evaluate outcomes on practice and for older people<br />

An evaluation framework has been introduced that could be continued at a local<br />

regional or national level. We believe this framework can support HIQA and other<br />

quality initiatives nationally across older people’s services<br />

Further test a model <strong>of</strong> person-centred practice in long term care/rehabilitation<br />

settings and develop it as a multi-pr<strong>of</strong>essional model.<br />

<strong>The</strong> model has been tested and will be reported elsewhere in more detail. <strong>The</strong><br />

testing in this programme demonstrated the need for the physical care environment<br />

to be included.<br />

Utilise a participant generated data-set to inform the development and<br />

outcomes <strong>of</strong> person-centred practice. (Already designed and tested tools will<br />

be used to produce data set)<br />

<strong>The</strong> programme has enabled local NMPDU facilitators to work with shared principles,<br />

models, methods and processes in practice development work across older people<br />

services in Ireland. A range <strong>of</strong> learning and evaluation tools have been introduced<br />

through this programme that can be continued. <strong>The</strong> data set informed the<br />

development <strong>of</strong> local action plans the programme and has been used to demonstrate<br />

outcomes in person-centred practice across the sites over three time periods.<br />
