| Abstract | Background As many older people spend their time in residential care facilities, the demand for person-centered care (PCC), which affects their quality of life, is increasing. Many residential care facility residents have cognitive problems, such as dementia and strokes. Providing quality care upholds their rights as human beings. Currently, the PCC tools used in South Korea are only translations of foreign tools into Korean, so it is necessary to develop tools for older adult care facilities that reflect the reality of Korean care facilities for older adults. This study aims to develop a tool for measuring PCC in residential care facilities for older people from the perspectives of care givers. Methods The draft of 34 questions was developed through literature reviews, interviews with LTC practitioners and researchers. This developed questionnaire was then administered to 402 direct caregivers working in the residential care facilities because many of the residents had cognitive problems. By measuring the interrater reliability, the items with high levels of agreement were selected and the validity of the construct was checked through factor analysis. To determine whether the domains adequately measured each concept, we calculated correlation coefficients and Cronbach’s α. Results Four domains and 32 items concerning service conditions, resident’s right to self-determination, a comfortable living environment for all residents, and resident and staff satisfaction are derived, thus explaining 24.7%, 23.6%, 14.6%, and 8.00% of the total variance, respectively. Cronbach’s alphas for each domain are 0.965, 0.948, 0.652, and 0.525, respectively, thus demonstrating internal consistency. The inter-rater agreement is high (66.7%~100.0%). The correlation between service conditions and resident’s right to self-determination (r = 0.643, p < 0.001), a comfortable living environment for all residents, resident and staff satisfaction (r = 0.674, p < 0.001), and resident’s right to self-determination and comfortable living environment (r = 0.695, p < 0.001) is strong. Conclusions It is important that caregivers recognize PCC and provide services. When evaluating the residential care services, measuring the degree of PCC should be made compulsory. If the facility becomes more person-centered, it will be possible to promote quality of life for older people. Trial registration Not applicable. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
