Workshop: Reaching Consensus on the Purpose of Person-Centered Care: A Real-Time Delphi Workshop [PCC006]

Onsdag 6 maj 2026 09:45 - 10:45 J1

Workshop leaders: Lina Emmesjö, Carljohan Orre, Hanna Gyllensten

Spår: Workshop

How can we use consensus techniques to explore the true purpose of person-centered care? In this interactive workshop, participants will engage in a real-time Delphi process to explore this question, while simultaneously learning about the method itself. The Delphi method is a structured approach to reaching consensus among experts through iterative rounds of scoring and feedback. It maintains anonymity to reduce the influence of dominant voices and encourages thoughtful reflection by allowing participants to revise their responses after viewing group results. Workshop participants will take on the role of "experts" in person-centered care, selecting from perspectives such as researcher, healthcare professional, patient, next of kin, or other. The process consists of three rounds: Round 1: Participants are presented with a range of statements on the purpose of person-centered care, based on a literature review, and are invited to suggest additional perspectives. Round 2: Participants score each statement (1–9) based on how well it captures the purpose of person-centered care. Round 3: Participants review aggregated scores from their selected expert group and others, then re-score the statements with the benefit of this shared insight. The session concludes with a presentation of the final results and a group discussion on how this method—and the insights gained—can inform research and practice in person-centered care. This workshop will be conducted in the digital platform eDelphi, where the participants will use their own smartphones or laptops. The workshop offers not only a collaborative space to reflect on core values of person-centered care but also a hands-on introduction to a method for inclusive, evidence-informed consensus-building.
