POSA422 Preferences for Person-Centred Care Among People with Dementia in Comparison to Physician's Judgments: Study Protocol for the Predemcare Study

Abstract

For People living with Dementia (PwD), Person-Centered Care (PCC) is emphasized. PCC requires knowledge about patient preferences. Data about quantitative preferences for dementia care, which would allow a quantification, weighting and ranking of patient-relevant criteria, are limited. Likewise, physician's judgments about PCC for PwD need to be known, as a divergence between patient preferences and physician’s judgements would decrease the chance of viable value-based person-centered dementia care.
