Q. Reflect upon the following using the above model - not only the text but the model itself:
"To achieve the transformation required by integrated care, this means three things: we need to include the principles of integrated working into our formal education and training systems; we need to recognize that learning continues in our workplaces; and accept that we ourselves will be informal educators throughout our careers."
The following dimensions are listed in the editorial and above :
- Dimension 1. Person-centred care (i.e. the improvement of someone’s health and wellbeing through the active engagement of service users as partners in care)
- Dimension 2. Clinical integration (i.e. care services are coordinated and/or organised around the needs of service users)
- Dimension 3. Professional integration (i.e. existence and promotion of partnerships between care professionals that enable them to work together)
- Dimension 4. Organisational integration (i.e. the ability of different providers to come together to enable joined-up service delivery)
- Dimension 5. Systemic integration (i.e. the ability of the care system in providing an enabling platform for integrated care, such as through the alignment of key systemic factors like financing and regulation)
- Dimension 6. Functional integration (i.e. the capacity to communicate data and information effectively within an integrated care system)
- Dimension 7. Normative integration (i.e. the extent to which different partners in care have developed a common frame of reference of vision, norms, and values on care integration)
