Engaging and empowering people and communities,
Reorienting the model of care,
Coordinating services within and across sectors
Development, implementation and evaluation of a nurse led integrated, person-centred care with long term conditions
This proposal outlines a conceptual plan for innovative, integrated care designed for people living with long term condicions. This conceptual plan delivers a partnership between the health system, the person with long-term conditions (chornic), their family, and the community. The partnership aims to support people at home with access to effective treatment, consistent with the New Zealand Government Health Strategy. This concept of people-owned care is provided by nurses with advance practice skills, who co-ordinate care across services, locations and multiple long-term conditions.
