Advancing the Practice

Mark Hines (seated), a volunteer Patient Advisor, meets regularly with MCG hospital staff to implement patient- and family-centered care practices. Marks wife, Barbara (standing on the left), often joins him.

Moving forward with patient- and family-centered care requires teamwork and responsiveness to individual, organizational, and community needs. But progress is also grounded in an understanding of the literature and of the experience of other organizations. This section offers access to helpful, credible resources available from this website and from the sites of other organizations. Patient and family advisors and leaders, organizational leaders and managers, clinicians, educators of health professionals, researchers, and architects and interior designers will find information and resources in their specific areas of interest and expertise.
