Person-centred medicine in the care home setting: feasibility testing of a complex intervention
The PREPAIR-CH was found acceptable and feasible by residents, relatives, and healthcare professionals, but care home staff and GPs disagreed on the relevance of the medication communication template. The findings suggest that the intervention may enhance resident and relative involvement to support person-centred medicine. Some uncertainties must be explored before a large-scale evaluation, including the applicability to different types of residents and how to support interprofessional communication about medicines, as the needs appear to differ between care home staff and GPs.
