Improving Person-Centered Innovation of Nursing Care

Leadership for Change

This English edition helps students and nursing professionals give each patient their unique position in healthcare delivery. The book provides tools to connect key topics and innovations in healthcare, developing a complete perspective on patient/person-centred care. It  provides a comprehensive picture of important and recent insights on health and care. At its core, nurses provide care with a focus on the patient as a person. This person-centred care engages each patient's needs, preferences and expectations when providing integrated care.

In this volume, care starts from the patient's point of view rather than from the role and function of the healthcare professional. The author relates themes such as relational care delivery, shared decision-making and empowerment to key concepts such as patient- and family-centred care, integrated care, patient-centred leadership(styles), quality of care and value-based healthcare.

This book briefly and powerfully integrates these themes and describes them from a patient and client perspective, underpinned by the scientific literature on them. The themes are linked in a flowchart, starting from illness and working towards health, extending health even if people have a (physicalor mental) health problem.  

The purpose of this book is to offer a professional view of person-centred care. It stresses the importance of shared-decision making and leadership in promoting health in the care-setting. As such, it will be essential for any healthcare professional.
