The increasing complexity of residents' needs, emphasis on social distancing and limited access to high-quality support presented challenges to patient-centred care during the pandemic. Yet the pandemic created an opportunity to explore novel approaches to achieving person-centred care within long-term care (LTC). We share three projects designed to enhance care delivery in the context of the pandemic: to address personhood needs during outbreaks, to improve the quality of medical care and to deliver personalized palliative and end-of-life care using a prediction algorithm. These projects enabled better care during the pandemic and will continue to advance person-centred care beyond the pandemic.
居民需求日益复杂、对社交距离的强调以及获得高质量支持的机会有限,这些都给疫情期间以患者为中心的护理带来了挑战。然而,疫情也创造了一个机会,可探索在长期护理(LTC)中实现以人为本护理的新方法。我们分享三个旨在在疫情背景下加强护理服务的项目:在疫情爆发期间满足人的需求、提高医疗护理质量以及使用预测算法提供个性化的姑息治疗和临终关怀。这些项目在疫情期间实现了更好的护理,并将在疫情之后继续推动以人为本的护理发展。
