The Patient-Centered Health Neighborhood

Abstract

The creation, implementation, and ongoing maintenance of a patient-centered health neighborhood are central to care in the 21st century. This neighborhood must adhere to the principles of patient-centered care and rest on the foundation of nursing theory that honors what is important to people and the mission and vision of healthcare clinics and systems. It is important that there is strong leadership to develop, implement, and maintain a patient-centered health neighborhood. In this paper, there is an exploration of the patient-centered health neighborhood and the ways it connects to Parse’s unique nursing paradigm, humanbecoming.
