Methods of Documentation VI: Case Management Model

724
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...

Classification of Illness

The meaning of illness is individualized to each person who experiences an alteration in health. In contrast, disease is a medical term indicating a pathological change in the structure and function of the body or mind. It is a condition that has specific symptoms and boundaries.
An illness is a response to a disease in which the person's level of functioning is changed compared with a previous level. The general classification of illness includes acute and chronic.
Acute illness is severe...

The person's health status fluctuates continually, varying from being in good health to becoming ill and returning to being healthy. To understand the concept of illness prevention, there are two models. First, the health-illness continuum model is a graphic representation of an individual's wellness. It states that a person is considered healthy in the absence of physical disease and the presence of good emotional health.
The agent-host-environment model states that disease results...

Levels of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention

Health promotion allows a person to control the determinants of health, resulting in an improved health status. It enhances the quality of life and reduces premature deaths. Health promotion and illness prevention programs help people make beneficial choices to reduce the risk of disease and disabilities. There are three health promotion and illness prevention levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary prevention.
In primary prevention, actions taken before disease onset prevent the disease from...

Concepts of Health and Illness

Health is a condition of the body, mind, and spirit where an individual remains free from illness. Similarly, wellness is an active state, including living a lifestyle that promotes physical, mental, and emotional health. Physical health is critical for the overall well-being and can be affected by lifestyle, activity level, diet, and behavior. The highest attainable standard of health is a fundamental and universal human right. Consider Lisa, a fifteen-year-old born with congenital...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Sociology
  • Health Management

Background:

  • Effective management of long-term conditions requires consideration of micro-, meso-, and macrolevels.
  • Existing analytical frameworks have not holistically integrated these societal levels for long-term condition management (LTCM).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel actor-level framework for LTCM practice and research.
  • To integrate societal levels and key agents within a unified analytical model.
  • To broaden the understanding of LTCM as an interdisciplinary field.

Main Methods:

  • Development of an actor-level framework based on the theoretical works of Abram De Swaan and Randall Collins.
  • Conceptual integration of micro-, meso-, and macrolevels with key societal agents.
  • Analysis of existing contributions to LTCM research and practice.

Main Results:

  • The proposed framework offers a broader perspective on LTCM compared to previous models.
  • It encourages cross-level and cross-actor knowledge production for complex illness management.
  • The framework facilitates the integration of diverse disciplinary knowledge and research traditions.

Conclusions:

  • The actor-level framework enhances the interdisciplinary scope of LTCM research and practice.
  • It promotes knowledge integration across different levels and agents involved in LTCM.
  • This framework can stimulate collaborative research to improve outcomes for individuals with long-term conditions.
