The mission of the National Home-Based Primary Care Learning Network is to advance the field of home-based medical care through a coordinated program of quality improvement and applied research.
The Learning Network’s vision is that homebound persons receive high-quality evidence-based medical care in their homes. We aim to improve medical practice in the home and expand the evidence base for home-based medical care by fostering communities of best practice engaging in quality improvement and conducting applied research.
Respecting Choices
Person-Centered Care
https://respectingchoices.org/
Respecting Choices® (RC) is an internationally recognized, evidence-based system for person-centered decision making that transforms the healthcare culture by honoring an individual’s goals and values.
RC’s goal is to design a system of person-centered care that is guided by the best scientific evidence and is aligned with an individual’s goals and values.
This system requires a shared decision-making process that involves respectful interaction among providers, individuals, and families, and keeps the focus of planning on what matters most to each and every person for any healthcare decision. Through a systematic approach in designing and implementing ACP processes, the goal of honoring an individual’s healthcare decisions can be achieved.
