Denoting the importance of being more of a person in one's professional role, this study highlights health aspects of being person-centred from the perspective of people working in nursing homes, and complements previous research that describes the impact of person-centred care on people in need of care. The findings could be applied to facilitate person-centred care in nursing home contexts, and to develop prevention strategies to diminish negative impacts on person-centred doing, being, becoming and belonging.
