Summary "This lively and accessible book introduces the reader to patient-centred health care. It provides a clear description of the concept, and offers personal experiences and perspectives on the theory and practice of developing patient-centred care initiatives." "Essential Practice in Patient-Centred Care illustrates a wide range of approaches, involving a multi-disciplinary team of authors from around the world. Each chapter is written by a person involved in pioneering work which has been stimulated by the notion of patient-centred care. The book examines concrete examples of how patient-centred ideas have led to better health care."--BOOK JACKET
