Person-centred care has been shown to have positive outcomes for patients and for staff. However, the complexity of the link between structural conditions, work in a person-centred manner and outcomes for staff is insufficiently described. We tested the relationship between structural empowerment and psychological empowerment, as mediated by nursing home staff members' self-ratings of working in a person-centred manner, the person-centred climate and thriving. Questionnaires were distributed to staff working in 12 nursing homes in Sweden. A serial mediation model was tested. The results showed that higher access to structural empowerment was related to higher psychological empowerment mediated by staff working in a more person-centred manner, improved person-centred climate, and improved staff ratings of thriving. These results point to the importance of strengthening the preconditions for staff to work in a person-centred manner and nursing home managers play an important role in this.

Background: NICE guidelines advocate that healthcare professionals should aim to use non-pharmacological and person-centred approaches as primary strategies to reduce or prevent distress in people living with dementia who reside within care settings. However, despite these recommendations, recent studies have illustrated that there is still a requirement for healthcare professionals to have adequate opportunities to access training programmes and guidance on how to effectively use non-pharmacological approaches in dementia care settings. Communication and Interaction Training (CAIT) was developed to train healthcare professionals in dementia care on how to apply person-centred principles to effectively reduce or negate distress in people living with dementia in a non-invasive manner.

This conceptual paper defines and describes pragmatic person centred care as an enhanced and expanded version of the construct of person centred care (PCC). Pragmatic person centred care is defined as health care that is respectful of, and responsive to the person's preferences, needs and values, while being reflective of available resource, reserves, and restrictions, regulating and balancing all aspects and facets of care in a rational, realistic and renewable manner, so as to ensure optimal relief and results. Pragmatic person centred care is dependent upon four 'pillars': the person and their care givers, the public and peers, the health care profession and their ecosystem, as well as policymakers and planners.

This brief communication describes the concept of physiofriendly pharmacotherapy for type 2 diabetes mellitus. Physio-friendly therapy is defined as that which restores metabolic, including glycaemic and weight homoeostasis, to near normal levels. Drugs such as glucagon like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP1RA), sodium glucose cotransporter- 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), and alfa glucosidase inhibitors, along with metformin, work in a physio-friendly manner and may facilitate remission.

Care-planning is vital to the delivery of timely, person-centred, safe and effective care. Despite the understanding of the benefits of person-centred care-plan in both services, occupational therapists (OTs) within our forensic and rehabilitation services had difficulties in inputting into patient care-plan an efficient and person-centred manner.The OT team developed a Quality Improvement (QI) project to improve the efficiency of the OT process to create more time for care-planning and improve person-centredness of OT input into care-plans to 82% in the forensic services and rehabilitation services by December 2023.

Context: Contemporary technologies, such as mainstream and specialised Assistive Technologies (ATs), are seen as effective. However, there is a noticeable gap between technological progress and the ability to customise these technologies to meet the unique needs and characteristics of neurodivergent individuals, particularly those on the Autism Spectrum and people with Intellectual Disability (pwID).
Purpose: The goal of this study is to investigate the present requirements and future priorities acknowledged by specialists in the field regarding the progress of social inclusion for this population, making use of ATs.
