"Hi! I'm new to Hodges' model - and this blog - what's it about?"
The model was created in the early - mid 1980's with four purposes in mind - to facilitate: 1. reflection & develop reflective practitioners; 2. person-centred, integrated (holistic) care; 3. help bridge the theory-practice gap; 4. curriculum design, planning and development. This was prompted by the change in the UK to university-based nurse education, which was to commence in (Project) 2000. Learning and applying Hodges' model in 1987-88, and creating a website 1998-2015, I am clearly invested in Hodges' model and biased, questions and debate are welcome. Created by Brian E. | Hodges' model is a generic framework - a conceptual framework. This model is situated, as 'generic' suggests which means of course it is universal. If you've a problem, scenario forthcoming project, or one that is nearing completion Hodges' model can assist in reflection and critical thinking to plan, scope, or evaluate as per your purpose. This blog has posts about papers, events that interest me (PJ), plus many posts using this two-by-two table approach that suggests how the model can be applied in a variety of contexts. This blog also has a bibliography and template in the sidebar. |
Hodges^ As noted previously (and last month!), it is marvellous to hear news of a paper citing Hodges' model. If you are planning a piece of writing, research and believe that Hodges' model may be of help please get in touch. If you don't and can see merit in Hodges' model asit is presented, that is fine also. In fact, although I mention collaboration unique - untainted perspectives are probably much needed. Learning of a citation after publication is great news and encouragement. This could and should be an amazing community: Welcome to the QUAD Thank you for your visit and interest. Any questions pleased to try to help: h2cmng AT yahoo.co.uk | As a nurse who trained in learning disability, Brian Hodges was acutely aware of the political in health care, the role of the institutions and the aspiration of community-based and person-centred care. Yes, you can use the model. It is open source. All we* ask is that you cite and credit the source. With the 'politics of health' much in mind there are many papers to write on the model that includes: reflection; person-centredness; integration of care; self care TO planetary health FROM ?; Inter- multi- transdisciplinary in Hodges' model; A model of healthcare viewed mathematically: Surely you're joking Mr Hodges?
