6. Models of Care: PERSON centered care
Person Centered Care introduced by Tom Kitwood (1997) moved the emphasis of management away from the illness (dementia) to the person with dementia and their surroundings.
He felt that the main goal of care was to help people with dementia to stay being themselves – that is, to retain their ‘personhood’.
