Secondary data: Describing the Status Quo of Person-Centred Dementia Care within Different Types of Care Units in German Nursing Homes

This is the secondary data set and R-Code of R statistical software (version 4.2.1) to investigate the differences and commonalities in the existence of policies regarding person-centred dementia care (PCDC) measured with the Dementia Policy Questionnaire (DemPol-Q) in different care unit types in German nursing homes using a contingency table and Fisher’s exact test. The data from the secondary data analysis were collected in the “BeStaDem” Survey Study, funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG, project number: 430919791), and performed by Deutsches Zentrum für Neurodegenerative Erkrankungen (DZNE) e.V., site Witten. This quantitative analysis is one part of the article “Describing the Status Quo of Person-Centred Dementia Care within Different Types of Care Units in German Nursing Homes – A Convergent Mixed Methods Study”.The data frame DemPol-Q_Data_PUB.sav was also used in our article "Hoffmann AL, Bergmann JM, Fahsold A, Müller-Widmer R, Roes M, Holle B, et al.
