After 41 years of listening - now it's your turn [ please ]...

If you are a researcher, author, lecturer or editor ... (you get the gist already...) and the project that currently has your undivided attention (well, almost) is a draft paper or literature review on any of the following:

metamodels of care / nursing / healthcare / global health
metacognition of care / nursing / healthcare / global health

holistic care / nursing
integrated care / nursing

models of care

models of nursing
theories of nursing

models of healthcare

conceptual frameworks in health, social care or education
(across - theory, practice, commissioning, funding)
history, current state, future of the above..

(I could add more)

- then please consider this request.

If there is no reference in the work to Hodges' model, as in:

The Health Career Model

Hodges' Health Career Model

Hodges' Health Career - Care Domains - Model

The Health Career - Life Chances - Model

- then I would humbly suggest to you that the work in front of you is incomplete.

Yes. I am variously disappointed, dispirited, desperate* since the terms of a well thought out, comprehensive search strategy should surely pick up a breadcrumb leading to Hodges' model? Fellow mentors and supervisors I need some help.

But, help with which one you may well ask?

Well, here's some background to account for the seeming lack of version control:

The Health Career Model

 &
Hodges' Health Career Model

These were the original titles for the model. The 'health career' has always referred to the idea and phenomena of 'life chances' (see bibliography in sidebar for Hughes).

Hodges' Health Career - Care Domains - Model

The original website from 1998 appeared to cause some confusion with visitors taking career to relate to work and professional opportunities. The 'care domains' addition sought to distract from that, to emphasize the care knowledge quality of the model.

The Health Career - Life Chances - Model

I have always tried to include Hodges' in the titles I have employed. More recently, it appears that using a name appears to accentuate the perception for others that the model was "Not invented here". Plus, there may be copyright and other proprietary provisions.

The reference to Hughes and life chances goes back to 1958, but seems even more relevant now given the importance of epigenetics, technology, sustainability, ecology, universal health care, access to information and healthcare knowledge and global health.

So, even if not germane to the main arguments of the paper or work at hand I would hope that the model might at least be referenced, as per:

Maffissoni, André & Vendruscolo, Carine & De Lima Trindade, Letícia & Zocche, Denise. (2018). Redes de atenção à saúde na formação em enfermagem: interpretações a partir da atenção primária à saúde. Revista Cuidarte. 9. 1-13. https://revistacuidarte.udes.edu.co/index.php/cuidarte/article/view/549

Many thanks!
