- The study evaluated the effectiveness of a person-centered care program for nurses in acute-care hospitals, comparing it to a dementia-type-specific program over a period from July 2021 to January 2022 across seven hospitals.
- Out of 158 participants, those in the intervention group showed significant gains in dementia nursing expertise, medical knowledge, and confidence, along with improvements in ethical sensitivity regarding patient dignity.
- The control group also had positive outcomes, particularly in providing care tailored to cognitive function, indicating that both programs have valuable impacts on nursing care in dementia patients.
