Aim: To evaluate the effects of a person‐centred and thriving‐promoting intervention on nursing home residents´ experiences of thriving and person‐centredness of the environment, and to evaluate if the effects varied between female and male residents. Design: A multi‐centre, non‐equivalent controlled group before‐after intervention design. Methods: Six nursing homes in Australia, Norway and Sweden were allocated to either intervention or control group. The intervention comprised a staff educational programme. A survey using proxy‐ratings by staff was administered before (T0), immediately after (T1) and six months after (T2) the intervention. The sample varied between 205 and 292 residents. Linear regression models were used to explore effects. Results: Statistically significant effects were found on experiences of thriving and person‐centredness of the environment. These effects were significant for male residents but not for female residents. The results emphasize the importance of individually tailored social and recreational activities.
