Summary
This study clarifies personalized care planning for patients with long-term conditions (LTCs). Understanding shared decision-making and self-management is key for effective implementation in clinical practice.
Area of Science:
- Health Services Research
- Clinical Practice Implementation
- Patient Engagement
Background:
- Personalized care planning is crucial for patients with long-term conditions (LTCs).
- Lack of conceptual clarity around care planning hinders its widespread implementation.
- Overlapping concepts in the literature can impede clinical and research progress.
Purpose of the Study:
- To explore the concept of care planning in relation to overlapping terms.
- To clarify the meaning of care planning for improved clinical practice implementation.
- To enhance understanding for both research and clinical agendas.
Main Methods:
- Systematic literature searches in Cochrane, CINHAL, and MEDLINE.
- Concept mapping through literature examination, term identification, and review retrieval.
- Content analysis of retrieved articles appraised against clinical practice experience.
Main Results:
- Thirteen articles highlighted patient-centeredness, shared decision-making, and self-management.
- Further searches identified 24 related articles.
- Concept mapping revealed common themes but distinct differences based on clinical context and outcomes.
Conclusions:
- Clarifying care planning concepts is essential for effective patient involvement in long-term conditions.
- Understanding the nuances of patient-centeredness, shared decision-making, and self-management is vital.
- This conceptual clarification will advance research and clinical implementation agendas.

Planning Nursing Care I
The planning phase of the nursing process helps nurses set priorities, outline patient-centered goals and expected outcomes, and tailor nursing interventions to align with the aligned care plan. Through the planning phase, the nurse applies critical thinking skills to align and develop interventions according to the patient's needs. It provides continuity of care allowing patients to receive the maximum benefit from treatment. It serves as a pilot plan for allocating individual staff to a...

Planning Nursing Care II
A nursing care plan can present in two forms: informal and formal. Informal is a care plan for the individual use of the nurse and goals they wish to accomplish during their shift. Informal care plans are not included in the patient chart. A formal nursing care plan is a written or computerized guide that organizes patient care. It is further subdivided into two: standardized and individualized care plans. Standardized care plans are pre-populated care plans for specific patient populations,...
Methods of Documentation VI: Case Management Model
The case management model is a multidisciplinary approach that involves healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines, such as physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, and pharmacists, working collaboratively to address the various needs of patients. Each healthcare professional brings unique expertise and perspectives, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the patient's condition and tailoring treatment plans accordingly.
For example, a patient with a chronic illness...
