Patient and Family-centered Collaborative Care: An Orthopaedic Model

Despite both longstanding and recent interest in patient-centered care, there are few published models or methods for defining and implementing patient-centered care in the office and hospital setting through a full cycle of care from the patient’s perspective. In this study, the researchers describe patient- and family-centered collaborative care as a low-technology, systems-based solution to many current problems and suggest ways to provide safe, effective, timely, and efficient health care.
