Nursing homes are required to provide person-centered care, efforts often folded into broader culture change initiatives. This study assessed the criterion validity of the Preferences for Everyday Living Inventory (PELI) Implementation Indicator (i.e., gathered and used PELI information to guide care delivery and quality improvement) with other culture change measures. Data analysis from Ohio-based nursing homes (n = 771) found that the Resident Preferences for Care and Certified Nursing Assistant Empowerment scales were significantly associated with complete PELI implementation. Findings suggest that the PELI Implementation Indicator can be used as a pragmatic indicator of a community’s adoption of person-centered care and culture change.
