Aim A discussion of the use of video feedback as an effective and feasible method to promote person‐centred communication approaches within dementia care and long‐term care. Background Effective strategies to integrate person‐centred approaches into health care settings have attracted global attention and research in the past two decades. Video feedback has emerged as technique to enhance reflective learning and person‐centred practice change in some care settings; however, it has not been tested in the context of person‐centred dementia communication in long‐term care. Design Discussion paper. Data Sources Articles dating from 1995 to 2018 retrieved via searches of the SCOPUS, CINAHL, MEDLINE and Cochrane Systematic Review databases. Implications for Nursing Inclusion of video feedback in a person‐centred dementia communication intervention for nurses and other health care providers may effectively fill a gap evident in the literature. This intervention can offer feedback of enhanced quality and enduring impact on behaviour change relative to traditional training. Conclusion A critical review of empirical and theoretical evidence supports video feedback as a potential means to enhance person‐centred communication within the context of dementia and long‐term care. The promising benefits of video feedback present a novel research opportunity to pilot its use to enhance person‐centred communication between nurses/health care providers and persons with dementia in long‐term care.
