For the purpose of this presentation, the terms
person-centered care and person-centeredness
are used, though other terms also are recognized
(patient-centered, resident-centered, family-centered,
relationship-centered, etc.)


The Institute of Medicine identified PCC as a
healthcare priority

What is person-centered care?
◦ “health care that establishes a partnership among
practitioners, patients, and their families (when
appropriate) to ensure that decisions respect patients
wants, needs, and preferences and that patients have the
education and support they require to make decisions and
participate in their own care.” (IOM, 2001, Envisioning a
National Healthcare Quality Agenda)
Why develop PCC
criteria and measures?

PCC is a complex
concept requiring
multiple dimensions
of culture change

Why develop PCC criteria and measures?

Benchmark performance internally / longitudinally

Benchmark performance externally / in comparison
to competitors

Understand relationship between PCC and other
factors (e.g., financial, regulatory performance)
Why develop PCC criteria and measures?

Long-term care executives call for new measures
◦ “I think measurement is key. We have to develop new
measurements if we want new outcomes. And people
pay attention to what we’re measuring, and many of
the current measurements are still good, but we need
additional measurements.”

How were PCC criteria
and measures developed?
How were PCC criteria developed?
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
• Preliminary criteria developed through focus
groups and expert committee from Planetree,
My InnerView, IHI, Joint Commission, etc
• Preliminary criteria crosswalked with PCC
measurement tools & literature (evidence base)
• Recommendations made for revision (e.g., drop,
add, merge, split)
• Criteria revisions reviewed by research team &
representatives from affiliated LTC sites
• Consensus on criteria established
Original
A plan for caring touch is developed and
implemented as appropriate. (Exceptions include
behavioral health patients.) Examples of caring
touch include massage, healing touch, therapeutic
touch and Reiki.

Measurement
or Literature
CAHPS Resident Surveys:
What number would you use to rate how gentle
the nursing home staff were when they helped
you?
Revised
…Beyond implementation of formal caring touch
programs, patients’/residents’ daily care is
provided with gentleness.

How were PCC measures developed?
Step 1
• Preliminary Quality Profile measures suggested
based on review of existing satisfaction and PCC
measurement tools and literature
Step 2
• Providers interviewed about measurement needs
and surveyed about feasibility and importance of
preliminary measures
Step 3
• Measures reviewed by research team &
representatives from affiliated provider sites
• Consensus reached on Quality Profile measures

What are the PCC measures?

Quality Profile (QP) includes quantitative metrics
for evaluating an organization’s performance with
regard to important elements of PCC as
identified in the literature and from providers
◦ QP to be completed on last Friday of month
What are the PCC measures?

The measures, like the criteria, are designed to
teach and to motivate, not merely to avoid
lapses in quality
◦ They beckon affiliates to rise up to the challenge and
to reach for excellence
◦ Some measures relate to specific criteria, and some
are more global (e.g., relating to org. health)
A multi-disciplinary task force is established to
oversee and assist with implementation and
maintenance of patient-/resident-centered
practices, which includes a mix of nonsupervisory and management staff, including a
Criterion
combination of clinical and non-clinical staff, and
meets regularly (every 4-6 weeks) on an ongoing
basis. In continuing care environments, this task
force also includes residents and family
members.
Measure
Numerator: Cumulative meetings this year
Denominator: Data month (1-12)
Processes are in place for evaluating, identifying
and effectively integrating into the care plan
what is important to each resident, based on
Criterion his/her identity, decision-making ability, and
mastery skills, and what is meaningful to that
resident in the living environment and in daily
activities.
Measure
% of care plans completed in which the resident
participated

adopted that embraces continuity, consistency
and accountability-based care, and allows staff

Partner Program.
Measure
% of care plans in which families participated
Residents are given an opportunity to
