ABSTRACT
This study aimed to explore the person-centered care and care climate of aged-care facilities, by surveying 108 care workers who had worked for three months or longer as the subjects of this study. The data collected was analyzed by various means such as t-test, ANOVA, Scheffe test, and Pearson’s correlation coefficient. The results of the analysis of person-centered care and care climate according to the general demographic characteristics of the care workers chowed that the care workers working under fixed work schedules had a higher understanding of person-centered care than their counterparts working on a rotational shift. It was also observed that there is a positive correlation between person-centered care and a person-centered care and a person-centered care climate.
