Developing integrated care. Towards a development model for integrated care
نویسنده
چکیده
The thesis explores the essential elements, implementation and developmental process of integrated care with a view to providing a quality management model for integrated care. Integrated care is required when a coordinated set of services is needed to cover the full range of client demands. The outcomes of this study add relevant information to our knowledge about integrated care and come together in the Development Model for Integrated Care (DMIC; in Dutch OMK: Ontwikkelingsmodel voor Ketenzorg). In addition the DMIC was empirically validated in practice.
