Study Evaluating the Effect of Person-centred Care for Patients Admitted for Inpatient Care at an Internal Medicine Unit

"The intervention comprises three sequential steps in the care process. The first two steps follow one after the other in conjunction with admission to the ward: 1) person-centred assessment, and 2) creation of a person-centred health plan. Persistent person-centred inpatient care, the third step, is practiced throughout the hospital stay, and is a component of the quality and patient safety program.~The model is systematically applied to all patients admitted to the unit. All staff are trained in PCC before implementation of the intervention."
