Abstract

Purpose
This study identified relationships among person-centered care environment, patient engagement, and patient outcomes in stroke rehabilitation patients.
Methods
This descriptive, correlational study was conducted using data from 243 post-stroke patients who were admitted in 6 rehabilitation hospitals. We collected data using self-report, structured questionnaires, which included items about the person-centered care environment, patient engagement, patient outcomes (patient satisfaction with nursing care, activities of daily living, levels of depression), and demographic characteristics. Path analysis and descriptive analyses were performed using SPSS 20.0 and AMOS 20.0.
Results
The hypothesized path model fit well for data based on goodness-of-fit indices. In the path model, person-centered care environment was significantly related to patient engagement and patient satisfaction with nursing care but not to activities of daily living and levels of depression, controlling for demographic characteristics. Additionally, person-centered care was significantly related to patient satisfaction with nursing care and reduction of depression through patient engagement.
Conclusion
Findings indicate the importance of developing a person-centered care environment to improve satisfaction with nursing care for stroke rehabilitation patients. A person-centered care environment improves patient engagement, which might be a significant factor in patient outcomes, including reduced depression for stroke rehabilitation patients.
