Definition of Resident Directed/Person Centered:
Resident directed/person centered care is an ongoing, interactive process between residents, caregivers and others that honor the residents’ dignity and choices in directing their daily life. This is accomplished through shared communication, education and collaboration. Relationships developed as part of this process benefit all involved creating a community that affirms the dignity and value of each individual who lives and works in the nursing home.
