Nr531 Week 3: Shared Governance Answer
Nursing care delivery models exhibit a spectrum ranging from traditional approaches like primary care and team nursing to contemporary and emerging models such as the magnet model, shared governance, and progressive patient care models. Cameron (2017) highlights that the selection of an optimal model considers factors like economic status, staff availability, and patient needs. In the current healthcare landscape, the prevailing model is progressive patient-centered care.
The progressive patient-centered care model organizes patients into units based on their required level of care, transcending medical specialties. This approach prioritizes individual patient needs, ensuring comprehensive care irrespective of the patient’s medical specialty. It incorporates specialized units, such as intensive care for critically ill patients, self-care units for diagnosis needs, intermediate care, and more.
