Applying implementation science to infectious disease emergency preparedness and response
Some infectious disease outbreaks present an emergency and a potential disaster scenario. Examples include a new virus similar to or more infectious and deadly than COVID-19 or Ebola, such as the 2025 MERS-like virus. Although good practices for general emergency preparedness and management can be used to plan, there are different and less-known preparations and responses needed for some infectious disease outbreaks and continuing and evolving cr…
Hauora Māori – Māori health
Māori practices are an expression of autonomy in the face of enduring health system failure. Apart from lower immunisation rates, health outcomes were not different from other models of care, despite patients having higher health risk profiles. Across all models, primary care need was unmet for many Māori, despite increased clinical input. Funding must support under-resourced Māori practices and ensure accountability for the health outcomes of Mā…
Nurses’ work in relation to patient health outcomes
Transferring work to nurses in Traditional, Health Care Home, and Corporate practices, would release general practitioner clinical time for other work. Worse patient health outcomes were associated with higher patient need and higher clinical input. It is plausible that there is insufficient clinical input to meet the degree of patient need. More practitioner clinical time is required, especially in practices with high volumes of complex patients
Equity, empathy, and diagnostic competence
Ovretveit juxtaposes reviews on professionalism, clinical reasoning, and empathy development to reflect on what can be expected of medical education
Is there equity of patient health outcomes across models of general practice in Aotearoa New Zealand? A national cross-sectional study
Model-level associations with poor patient outcomes suggest inequity in measures that might be used to target investment in primary care
Integration of Patient Self-care into Integrated Care
The International Journal of Integrated Care (IJIC) is an online, open-access, peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes original articles in the field of integrated care on a continuous basis.IJIC has an Impact Factor of 5.120 (2020 JCR, received in June 2021)
Digital Technologies Supporting Person-Centered Integrated Care – A Perspective
Shared electronic health and social care records in some service systems are already showing some of the benefits of digital technology and digital data for integrating health and social care. These records are one example of the beginning "digitalisation" of services that gives a glimpse of the potential of digital technology and systems for building coordinated and individualized integrated care. Yet the promise has been greater than the benefi…
Bridging the discursive gap between lay and medical discourse in care coordination
For older people with multiple chronic co-morbidities, strategies to coordinate care depend heavily on information exchange. We analyse the information-sharing difficulties arising from differences between patients' oral narratives and medical sense-making; and whether a modified form of 'narrative medicine' might mitigate them. We systematically compared 66 general practice patients' own narratives of their health problems and care with the cont…
Improving quality with digital health technology supporting coordination and self-care
This presentation presents findings and lessons from a study of the use of digital health technologies (DHT) to support integrated care in four EU countries. It is gives practical examples of how DHT has been used by pionnering integrated care schemes for people suffering from serious mental health challenges (Sweden); diabetes; (The Netherlands); and older people with significant health conditions (Germany) as well as a hospital at home service …
Integrating formal and informal care
Contemporary quality improvement
Brazil faces many challenges in meeting the changing health needs and demands of its popu-lation. Quality improvement methods and strate-gies have a part to play in improving healthcare and public health. This article gives a short out-line of some of the methods and strategies which can be used by services and regions to improve healthcare and to reduce waste and costs
Coordination in networks for improved mental health service
This contribution is an empirical example and a model for organisations establishing structures for network coordination. One lesson for current policy about integrated health care is to adapt and implement joint coordinators where full structural integration is not possible. Another lesson, based on the idea of patient quality by coordinated care, is specifically to adapt the work of the local addiction treatment and preventive team (ATPT)-an in…
The contribution of new social science research to patient safety
Determinants of health promotion action
The World Health Organization makes a case for the importance of voluntary organizations in promoting health at local levels. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to understanding which factors explain local voluntary associations (LVAs) participation in health promotion in local contexts. It does so through (i) identifying indicators that represent determinants of health promotion action which were reported by LVAs and by (ii) comparing th…
Assessing Evaluations of Hospital Quality Programmes
This paper describes the difficulties of evaluating quality programmes and of assessing evaluations of such programmes. It gives a framework which researchers and managers can use to assess reported evaluations of quality programmes
Medical dominance and the development of professional autonomy in physiotherapy
Has medical dominance declined as a result of the increasing autonomy of developing health professions? The paper argues that to answer this question it is first necessary to define medical dominance and professional autonomy. The paper outlines a categorisation of different types of professional autonomy, which correspond to different types of medical dominance. This categorisation is used to identify the particular aspects of professional auton…
