The influence of redesigning care processes on quality of care: A systematic review
The impact of organisational culture on integrated care
Collaborative arrangements across healthcare providers aiming to improve integration of care are receiving increasing attention by scholars and policymakers alike. Organisational culture is believed to bear an important influence on inter-provider collaboration and thus on the possibility to improve integration of care. However, limited understanding still exists with regard to whether culture affects the level of integrated care as perceived by …
Problems of integrated palliative care: A Dutch case study of routines and cooperation in the region of Arnhem
The Conditions for Health and Social Care Policy: Routines and Institutions in the Dutch Case of Need Assessment

A New Theoretical Model for Cooperation in Public Health Settings: The RDIC Model

Two qualitative studies were performed in the Netherlands. The first…

A Comparative Study of Dementia Care in England and the Netherlands Using Neo-Institutionalist Perspectives
In this article, the authors compare dementia care in England and the Netherlands.

Priorities regard…

It is characterized as health and health care‐related social care needed by patients with multi‐faceted needs. This article compares policy approaches to integrated care in England and The Netherlands. Differing political strategies and conditions for integrated care correspond to the dissimilarities in the instit…
Pastoralist health care in Kenya
Health care for the Kenyan pastoralist people has serious shortcomings and it must be delivered under difficult circumstances. Often, the most basic requirements cannot be met, due to the limited accessibility of health care provisions to pastoralists. This adds major problems to the daily struggle for life, caused by bad climatic circumstances, illiteracy and poverty. We argue that strong, integrated and community based primary health care could…
