The implementation of a model of person-centred practice in older person settings
compatible with individual’s values and beliefs and enabling the rights of the
residents to a quality of life in a caring and respectful environment.
Plans to sustain the work long term
Prior to the completion of the programme, the groups identified a number of ways to
continue working with some of the processes (observation exercises, patient
narratives, high challenge and high support and using Claims Concerns and Issues
for evaluation purposes). The group plan to use some of the processes in rolling out
the HIQA Standards and keeping the PCC/PD model/framework on all relevant
agendas within their hospitals. The internal facilitators have been instrumental in
developing a supportive and challenging climate to implement person-centred care
and promote new ways of “thinking”, “being” and “doing” in their sites.
