Making Cross-Cultural Collaboration a Reality for Students and Teachers
Empowered service users
Employing citizens with first-hand experience as ‘peer workers’ (PW) is increasingly prevalent in mental health and substance use organizations. This Norwegian qualitative exploratory study presents three benefits of PWs identified by managers, health professionals and PWs: empowered co-production, fluid positions, and catalysing cultural change. PWs have less clearly defined roles but can exercise discretion and autonomy. As service user experts…
The experiences of the caring dyad
BACKGROUND: Informal carers play an important role in the care of patients with mental illness. Little is known of the relationship experience of the patient and their informal carer (caring dyad) as the context for the intersection between physical and mental health. AIM: This study aimed to explore the impact of comorbid cardiometabolic risk (CMR), metabolic syndrome (MetS) and related diseases and severe mental illness (SMI) on the caring dyad…
The Same, Only Different
The aim of this article is to elucidate how male and female managers of small-scale enterprises in Norway and Sweden relate to and experience the intersection between work and private life. A qualitative content analysis was adopted to explore interviews with 18 managers. The analysis resulted in three primary categories: conflict as a part of the deal, using management to construct balance, and management identity contributing to enrichment. A k…
Disentangling patient and public involvement in healthcare decisions
Patient and public involvement has become an integral aspect of many developed health systems and is judged to be an essential driver for reform. However, little attention has been paid to the distinctions between patients and the public, and the views of patients are often seen to encompass those of the general public. Using an ideal-type approach, we analyse crucial distinctions between patient involvement and public involvement using examples …

Rational Choice Theory
Rational Choice Theory is flourishing in sociology and is increasingly influential in other disciplines. Contributors to this volume are convinced that it provides an inadequate conceptualization of all aspects of decision making: of the individuals who make the decisions, of the process by which decisions get made and of the context within which decisions get made. The ciritique focuses on the four assumptions which are the bedrock of rational c…
‘Exchanging knowledge on participation by EU health consumers and patients in research, quality and policy
A recent review by Bob Keizer for the Netherland Organisation for Health Research and Development (ZonMw) concluded that across Europe, different organizations in different domains are working on the participation of patients and health consumers1. Despite these diverse activities, there is a lack of evidence on the effectiveness on participation, lack of clarity on the definition of participation and a lack of support for patient organizations. …
Undermining patient and public engagement and limiting its impact
Patient and public involvement has been at the heart of UK health policy for more than two decades. This commitment to putting patients at the heart of the British National Health Service (NHS) has become a central principle helping to ensure equity, patient safety and effectiveness in the health system. The recent Health and Social Care Act 2012 is the most significant reform of the NHS since its foundation in 1948. More radically, this legislat…
Introducing this issue
This issue includes a range of articles at the heart of the Journal's agenda. The articles in this issue explore how people can be involved in shaping and undertaking research, different ways of communicating information and support, the evaluation of patient information leaflets, conceptualizing patient safety in hospitals from a patient perspective and the key elements of patient-centred stroke care. People make conscious decisions about health…
Public and patient participation in health care and health policy in the United Kingdom
Since 1948, the United Kingdom (UK) has operated a National Health Service funded primarily through public taxation where health services are available based on need and free at the point of delivery with limited out-of-pocket copayment. Other European predominantly public taxation funded systems operate, for example, in Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Italy. Domestic policy decisions have been devolved from London and England to Wales, Scotland and…
Revolution or evolution
Background Changing the relationship between citizens and the state is at the heart of current policy reforms. Across England and the developed world, from Oslo to Ontario, Newcastle to Newquay, giving the public a more direct say in shaping the organization and delivery of healthcare services is central to the current health reform agenda. Realigning public services around those they serve, based on evidence from service user’s experiences, and …
Bridging divides
Bridging divides: patient and public involvement on both sides of the Atlantic This themed section grew out of a series of three British-American medical sociology conferences, the most recent of which was convened in Boston, Massachusetts, in 2008.The two previous meetings took place in the UK: the first at Royal Holloway College, London University in 1999, and the second at the University of Edinburgh in 2006.This series of small residential me…
Listen to my madness
This article explores the salience of disability theory for understanding the experiences of people with serious mental illness. Drawing on data from a focus group study, we suggest that users experience both impairment (as embodied irrationality) which can, in itself, be oppressive, and also have to manage their lives within a largely disabling society. We outline some of the strategies adopted by users to manage their situation and ensure they …
The Sociology of Health and Illness at the Turn of the Century
A 'think piece' in both style and content, this article offers some thoughts and reflections on selected themes and issues which, we believe, provide some important indicators not simply of the sociology of health and illness' current status, but also of its future prospects. Four key themes have been chosen: (i) social inequalities in health; (ii) emotions and embodiment; (iii) (bio)technology, and finally; (iv) the shifting configuration of hea…
Pathways, Pyramids and Icebergs? Mapping the Links Between Dissatisfaction and Complaints
In this article the authors report the findings of a study of satisfaction, dissatisfaction and complaining, funded by the National Health Service Executive (NHSE). Although interest in these issues has increased with the introduction of the Citizen's Charter Initiative and the continued growth of consumerism, few scholars have looked at the relationships between them. Satisfaction and dissatisfaction are commonly viewed as different facets of th…
