5.0 out of 5 stars
A very useful book!,
This review is from: The Common Sense Guide to Improving Palliative Care (Paperback)
Joanne Lynn and colleagues have just come out with a great new book, The Common Sense Guide to Improving Palliative Care. (OxfordUniversity Press, 2007). Like their prior work in this area (Improving Care for the End of Life, now in a revised version, 2007), this pocket-sized book discusses quality improvement strategies. Using explicit examples from teams working in various venues in which palliative care is practiced (palliative care consult teams, ICU, nursing homes, hospices, etc.) the authors demonstrate how measurable improvement can be accomplished by following some straightforward quality improvement steps.This book really is about common sense. Over and over I found myself thinking, "we could do that where I work!" I suspect other readers will similarly be inspired to emulate projects described in this fine book. Highly recommended!
