While further investigation of the psychometric properties of the new items is needed, these modified questionnaires may offer a method of assessing and re-assessing compassion and PCC using language that is understandable to the Australian aged care workforce. Tools to accurately measure Australian aged care staff perceptions of compassion and their ability to deliver PCC are important to improve the quality of care provided in aged care and facilitate the delivery of PCC in aged care settings.
