Clinical settings often regard older adults as a uniform group, neglecting the diversity within this population, which results in a shortfall of person-centered care that overlooks their distinct daily care preferences. At the heart of person-centered care lies the imperative to comprehend and integrate these preferences into the care process. Recognizing and addressing gender differences in older adults is critical to customizing care plans, thereby optimizing quality of life and well-being for individuals. This study addresses the need to understand the diverse daily care preferences of adults, particularly among older populations, who represent a growing demographic with unique needs and interests.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study aims to identify and analyze the key themes and daily care preferences from unstructured adult text narratives with a focus on uncovering gender-specific variations.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study used 4350 deidentified, unstructured textual data from MyDirectives (MyDirectives, Inc), an interactive online platform.

Our analysis identified six major themes: (1) \u201centertainment\u201d (12.14%, 528\/4350), (2) \u201cmusic\u201d (10.39%, 452\/4350), (3) \u201cpersonal interests and memories\u201d (38.18%, 1661\/4350), (4) \u201cintimate relationships\u201d (14.92%, 649\/4350), (5) \u201cnatural comforts\u201d (16.18%, 704\/4350), and (6) \u201cemotional, cultural, and spiritual foundations\u201d (8.18%, 356\/4350). Gender differences were evident: women were more likely to express preferences for \u201cpersonal interests and memories\u201d (40.7% vs 33.3%), \u201cnatural comforts\u201d (18.4% vs 11.9%), and \u201cemotional and spiritual foundations\u201d (9.3% vs 6.1%) than men. Men expressed stronger preferences for \u201centertainment\u201d (18.1% vs 9.1%) and \u201cmusic\u201d (16.8% vs 7.2%). Common terms across all participants included \u201cdog,\u201d \u201clove,\u201d \u201cfriends,\u201d and \u201cbook.\u201d Notably, the study revealed significant gender differences in daily care preferences, especially regarding familial relationships and entertainment choices.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The findings underscore the importance of recognizing individual daily care preferences in person-centered care, particularly regarding gender.
