The implications of shifting care delivery strategies for the workforce from provider-centric to patient- and family-centered care are improved patient outcomes and quality of life, increased patient satisfaction, forming new partnerships with patient, families, and health care providers to create best outcomes and enhance the quality and safety of health care, reduce organization liability claims, professional development, this delivery of care being incorporated in organization 's polices and goals, and an overall improvement in the delivery of health care by practices understanding how they can better serve the needs of patients and families by using this delivery of care model.

It’s about us being gentle and caring in the way we give care and also about us not only looking after their physical needs but looking after them holistically. Nurses should especially have this quality since they are dealing with patients and family so closely. Heijkenskjold et al (2010) and Lindwall et al (2012) agree that patients’ voices being listened to, heard, valued and understood is essential to ensure respect and dignity for patients. Furthermore Heijkenskjold et al (2010) had found that nurses that treated patients as human beings and interacted ‘preserved’ their
It is essential that every person feels valued to maintain person centred care. Sanderson and Lewis (2012) noted that person centred care fosters patient involvement in their care delivery through working collaboratively with healthcare professionals. This permits them to engage with patients allowing them to make decisions through communication about their care. Healthcare professionals also do strive to treat the patients with dignity, respect and
Evaluation of My Core Competencies as a Health Care Professional The healthcare sector is one of the fastest growing fields and the healthcare professionals play a critical role in improving and providing access to quality healthcare for the people. Healthcare market has a wide range of challenges that provide healthcare professionals with several employment opportunities to grow in a variety of settings not limiting to just patient-centered healthcare settings like hospitals and nursing homes but also in innovative arenas like integrated healthcare delivery systems, managed care organizations and health informatics. I personally being a Physician, Medical content developer, and a Clinical business analyst, I have got an opportunity
It is the person and their physical, emotional, and psychological needs that are the basic focus of nursing’s attention. In order to care for a patient, the nurse must incorporate all these needs. For example, providing reassurance with an anxious patient who just finished hip surgery. Care also plays a major part when taking care of a unique patient. Caring influences my personal philosophy because it is the most important aspect of nursing.
Patient-Centered Care--I demonstrated patient-centered care by respecting the patient 's mother preference. For example, the mother of my patient was asking to pray with them before the surgery. I respectfully joined with them to show I care for her child and respect her preference as I provide care to her daughter.
We are creating more patient-centered relationships among nurses,

In a clinical environment, person centred care is an essential approach in order to achieve the best outcomes for the patients individual needs. Person centred care involves taking a holistic approach to healthcare in which multiple factors such as age, beliefs, spirituality, values and preferences are taken into consideration when assessing, treating and caring for a patient (Epstein & Street 2011). It enables the patient to have a more interactive and collaborative approach in their healthcare, share responsibility and maintain their dignity and values. It involves a bio-psychosocial perspective to healthcare as opposed to a biomedical attitude. In order to provide patient centred care, the clinician needs to consider the individual’s needs
Based on the nursing concepts I have learned so far, a nurse’s main focus is primarily on their patients along with their patients emotional, physical and psychological needs. When it comes to patients, it is important to remember each person possesses different physiological and psychological makeup. Also, every person is unique, dynamic, and multidimensional to a certain aspect, thus requiring a different course of action to be taken by a competent nurse. Which is why I believe that nurses should try to adopt a holistic approach in caring for patients because of the interrelatedness of all the
The idea of family centred care was first mentioned in the Platt report of 1959, then reiterated by Casey’s Model of Nursing 1988 which referred to allowing parents to complete the ‘basic’ cares whilst the nurse supports and educates the parents. The Institute for Patient- and Family-Centred Care (IPFCC) outline the core concepts as dignity and respect, information sharing, participation and collaboration. Family centred care is about “Bringing the perspectives of patients and families directly into the planning, delivery, and evaluation of health care, and thereby improving its quality and safety.” (IPFCC,
Providing care to a patient is a particularly challenging process that requires a great deal of effort from a nurse. A nurse’s ability to give quality care to their patient is an important aspect to a patient’s life both now and in the future. As such, nurses must exhibit specific qualities in their practice in order to maintain the best standard of care for their patients. Given this, I believe that the standards of knowledge, advocacy, and self-awareness are foundational to the nursing practice and to a nurse’s capacity to provide quality patient care. Knowledge
