The data for Person-centered care practice between public and private General Hospitals in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia

The study was conducted in general hospitals in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, from May 26 to July 26, 2023. There are a total of 52 hospitals in the city, including three nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), three owned by the defense forces and the police, and 35 private hospitals. Patients over 18 years of age, admitted to selected public and private hospital wards for 24 hours or more, and mentally capable of providing informed responses.

The Patient-Centered climate questionnaire (PCQ-P), originally developed in Swedish, assesses patients' perspectives on the care environment within healthcare facilities. It comprises 17 items across three dimensions of person-centered care: safety, everydayness, and hospitality. The Swedish study reported satisfactory Cronbach's alpha values for the total scale (0.93) and its subscales safety (0.94), everydayness (0.80), and hospitality (0.64).
