Abstract

Aim: To describe the non-significant results in nurses' outcomes after the implementation of person-centred care (PCC) and discuss if and how enablers of the WE-CARE roadmap for implementing PCC could abate the non-significant results. Design: In this paper, an innovative framework of enablers in the WE-CARE Roadmap is explained in relation to increased PCC and nurses' job satisfaction. Method: Findings from a scoping review and published material provided how PCC and nurses' outcomes connect. The WE-CARE roadmap entails five enablers: Information technology, Quality measures, Infrastructure, Incentive systems and contracting strategies. Results: The WE-CARE roadmap was described and each enabler in the WE-CARE roadmap is discussed concerning PCC and the nurses' job satisfaction. Thus far, the effects of PCC on nurses' outcomes have been non-significant. The WE-CARE roadmap enablers can be implemented to ensure an increased PCC implementation and higher nurses' job satisfaction.
