This is when vulnerable patients, carers and service users are given the right to make their own choices regarding their care plan and they are starting to control their own lives. For example, a way of empowering a service user is by promoting choice and working in partnership with individuals receiving care. Another example is Promoting active and full participation in the planning of their care

1. The service user and his/her care team including any advocates, make parallel around a common understanding of what is Important to the individual now and in the future.

There are many ways in which I encourage children to be able to develop their own sense of self. I help guide children in expressing their feelings. Sometimes a child gets frustrated while completing a task. This child then becomes agitated and temperamental, expressing their feelings inappropriately. I make it my duty to help them express their feelings in a suitable way. I lead them away from what is the trigger to the behavior. Then take them to a more calming location in the room, stay with them and talk them through the anger. I ask them what the problem is and ask them to point to what they are feeling on the feeling chart. I try to resolve the issue.

The NMC (2008) also states that the nurse must recognise and respect the role of the patient/client as partners in their care and the contribution they can make to

The nurse understands she has the knowledge of the disease process, and the patient has the knowledge of how the disease affects himself. The second phase of the relationship is the working phase, where the patient identifies who can help them with their health care problem. The nurse looks at the health care problem from the patient perspective and begins educating the patient on their health care problem, therefore the educated patient is better able to collaborate with the nurse to determine what interventions are necessary and acceptable to the patient to achieve a patient centered health related goal. The termination phase is the final phase of the theory, the nurse and the patient determine how the patient will maintain their progress and continue to work on the health care goals independently without the assistance of nursing. (Deane, & Fain, 2016).

“A framework through which NHS organisations are accountable for continuously improving the quality of their services and safeguarding high standards of care by creating an environment in which excellence in clinical care will flourish” (NHS Executive, 1998).

I think you have a great capstone project idea Katrina. I didn’t realize there was such deviation in treatment either. When I researched the library I found a review by Flierl, Messina, Mitchell and Da (2015) that acknowledges the fact that orthopedic surgeons vary greatly in their treatment regimen in the prevention of DVT’s in post-operative patients (p. 253). Maybe the article will interest you Katrina as supportive literature on the subject.

Definition: Recognize the patient or designee as the source of control and full partner in providing compassionate and coordinated care based on respect for patient’s preferences, values, and needs.

Nursing involves greater purpose beside the objective of treating patients’ ailments in an efficient and effective manner. Nurses, physicians, and health care providers across the board uphold the duty to treat patients with the utmost value of care. As a universal definition of care does not exist, Anita Finkelman and Carole Kenner explain care is drawn from four perspectives: a sense of care involving compassion, knowledge and expertise that allows nurses to advocate for the patient in addition to treating the medial complication, and “…competence in carrying out all the required procedures, personal and technical, with true concern for providing the proper care at the proper time in the proper way (Finkelman & Kenner, 2013) . Combining the foundation of every perspective leads to the Institute of Medicine’s (IOM) first core competency of patient-centered care. Sans the image of patient-centered care the practice of nursing and medicine alike will lack the passion the American Nursing Association envisions for “the protection, promotion, and optimization of health and abilities, prevention of illness and injury, alleviation of suffering through the diagnosis and care of individuals, families, communities, and populations” (Finkelman & Kenner, 2013). Therefore, the author of this paper explores the IOM’s definition of patient-centered care, implementation of the concept, and its pivotal relationship to the nursing profession.
