Download or read book Patient Experience in Adult NHS Services Improving the Experience of Care for People Using Adult NHS Services written by and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guidance is directed to all NHS services, including primary and community care, e.g. NHS dentistry services as well as district nursing and health visitor services, and hospital inpatient and outpatient care. The guidance is directed to all staff involved in providing NHS services. Many interactions are with clinically trained staff but interaction with non-clinical staff can have a profound effect on patient experience of care. As the guidance is generic in nature we have concentrated on core areas such as staff-patient interaction. There are inevitably a large number of areas not covered and are important for patient experience. Most frameworks of patient experience include the physical environment and access but to enable us to develop guidance in the time available it was agreed with NICE that we would not look at these. There are many groups of patients who have needs beyond those that generic guidance can cover. Patient experience issues specific to particular topics will be covered as usual in topic specific guidance and quality standards. Many of the recommendations in this guidance overlap with recommendations from policy documents and codes of professional organisations. The inclusion of these items in quality standards will allow the NHS to be held to account for the delivery of these key areas for patient experience.

Book excerpt: The aim of this quality standard is to provide the NHS with clear commissioning guidance on the components of a good patient experience. The quality standard gives evidence-based statements for commissioners that provide the foundation for an 'NHS cultural shift' towards a truly patient-centred service. The quality standard covers improving the quality of the patient experience for people who use adult NHS services. It does not cover people using NHS services for mental health or the experiences of carers of people using NHS services. A separate quality standard (and guidance) has been developed for people using NHS mental health services.

Download or read book Self Management for Persistent Pain written by Karen Rodham and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-22 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book critiques the current approach to the self-management of persistent pain. The drive towards self-management of chronic pain is flourishing as healthcare systems struggle to facilitate the care of those with long term health conditions. In this book Karen Rodham argues that albeit an empowering idea, self-management has not yet been fully translated from idea to practice and as such, runs the risk of blaming and shaming the person living with a chronic condition for failing to manage their condition effectively. She contends that the additional stress of this tension may in fact worsen their condition. Drawing from the research evidence as well as her practice experience, she advocates a move away from the terms ‘self’ and ‘management’ towards a more collaborative approach. One which takes account of the life-context of the person who is living with persistent pain. This book explores the shortcomings of the tendency to focus on self-management without taking into account life context and considers how we got here and what can be done. It will be a valuable resource to researchers and practitioners, especially in the field of health psychology.

Download or read book Palliative Care in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis written by David Oliver and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2014-03-20 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amytrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS or motor neurone disease) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that can cause profound suffering for both the patient and their family. Whilst new treatments for ALS are being developed, these are not curative and offer only the potential to slow its progression. Palliative care must therefore be integral to the clinical approach to the disease. Palliative Care in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: From diagnosis to bereavement reflects the wide scope of this care; it must cover not just the terminal phase, but support the patient and their family from the onset of the disease. Both the multidisciplinary palliative care team and the neurology team are essential in providing a high standard of care and allowing quality of life (both patient and carer) to be maintained. Clear guidelines are provided to address care throughout the disease process. Control of symptoms is covered alongside the psychosocial care of patients and their families. Case studies are used to emphasise the complexity of the care needs and involvement of the patient and family, culminating in discussion of bereavement. Different models of care are explored, and this new edition utilizes the increase in both the evidence-base and available literature on the subject. New topics discussed include complementary therapies, personal and family experiences of ALS, new genetics research, and updated guidelines for patient care, to ensure this new edition remains the essential guide to palliative care in ALS.
