Abstract

Purpose: To systematically review and synthesize the evidence for the experience of person-centered care from the perspective of nursing home residents to understand their views in depth. Methods: The seven steps of Nobit and Hare’s meta-ethnography, a well-known meta-synthesis method, were applied. We used four databases for the literature search (PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and CINAHL). Results: A total of seven studies were included for review. As a result of synthesizing the results, three themes (“promotion of mutual understanding through communication”, “care that acknowledges the independence of residents” and “finding the optimized state”) and six sub-themes were derived. Conclusions: This study has provided an in-depth understanding of person-centered care and will contribute to increasing its practical application.
