Nota de la solapa:

Offers a comprehensive, research-based look at the experiences and needs of patients and explores models of care that can make the experience of hospitalization more humane. The authors draw on research conducted by the Picker/Commonwealth Program for Patient-Centered Care--including a national survey of over 6,000 hospital patients and 2,000 care partners from sixty-two hospitals; and focus groups with patients and their family members.Through the Patient's Eyes provides insights into why some hospitals are more patient-centered than others; how physicians can become more involved in patient-centered quality efforts; and how patient-centered quality can be integrated into health care policy, standards, and regulations. The authors show how, by bringing the patient's perspective to the design and delivery of health services providers can improve their ability to meet patient's needs and enhance the quality of care.
