Book Synopsis

How do we learn from service user perspectives?
What practical skills and approaches are needed to make care truly person-centred?

Written by practitioners, academics and, more importantly, the people who use health services, this unique text examines the application of person-centred principles across a range of healthcare contexts. It will provide you with the essential skills, techniques and strategies needed to deliver person-centred care.

Patient and service users should be at the heart of healthcare delivery, and this book will equip nurses and midwives by connecting the reader to the lived experience of those receiving healthcare. It examines issues across the lifespan and reveals how person-centred care can best be achieved by working in partnership.

After introducing key principles and service design in chapters 1 and 2, each chapter that follows tackles a different age or disease specific area of care, including:
