This study presents a broad overview of health-system reforms in OECD countries over the past several decades. Reforms are assessed according to their impact on the following policy goals: ensuring access to needed health-care services; improving the quality of health care and its outcomes; allocating an "appropriate" level of pubic sector and economy-wide resources to health care (macroeconomic efficiency); and ensuring that services are provided in a cost-efficient and cost-effective manner (microeconomic efficiency).While nearly all OECD countries have achieved universal coverage of health-care risks, initiatives to address persistent disparities in access are now being undertaken in a number of countries. In light of new evidence of serious problems with health-care quality, many countries have recently introduced reforms intended to improve this, but it is too soon to generalise as to the relative effects of alternative approaches.

One of the most important advances in the delivery of healthcare has been recognition of the need for developing highly functioning multi-disciplinary teams. Such teams, when structured in a cohesive fashion, can function more effectively and efficiently than the sum of their parts. The benefits of teamwork extend from the delivery of care to a single patient to the overall structure and function of entire care delivery systems. Recognizing the value of collaborative approaches for improving all aspects of healthcare delivery and having champions, leaders, structure, function, goals, and accountability are paramount to success, regardless of how defined. Another important pillar of teamwork is excellent communication with clearly defined information flows and cross-verification mechanisms. This book outlines how to work together for shared goals in a complex, diverse, and constantly evolving health care system.

Fruit de l'expérience combinée de plusieurs thérapeutes, ce guide pratique de l'institutionnel vise à permettre une meilleure articulation des professionnels entre eux et avec l'extérieur pour rester à l'écoute des patients et de leur famille. Les institutions soignantes ou éducatives, résidentielles ou non, qu'elles concernent des enfants, des adolescents ou des adultes, sont des lieux féconds de recherches, de formations et d'avancées encourageantes dans l'accompagnement de personnes en difficulté. Sur base de leurs expériences conjuguées, neuf acteurs de la vie institutionnelle proposent ici des pistes de travail concrètes face aux problématiques rencontrées par l'ensemble des intervenants : collaborer avec les familles et entre soignants, gérer les espaces de parole, assurer la fonction de direction, mener les réunions d'équipe dans le respect et l'écoute, élaborer des réponses aux transgressions des résidents, accueillir ceux qui arrivent en institution et préparer le départ de ceux qui la quittent. Cette nouvelle édition d'Éduquer et soigner en équipe, entièrement révisée grâce aux connaissances et expériences nouvelles des auteurs, est un outil utile à tous les professionnels de l'institution, qu'ils soient éducateurs, psychologues, infirmiers, assistants sociaux, enseignants spécialisés, psychiatres, directeurs, ainsi qu'aux étudiants en formation dans ces domaines.

A significant body of knowledge is the basis for a holistic, caring and scientific evidence-based nursing education in practice for professional development. Quality teaching leads to good learning and both aspects are two of the main issues of quality assurance in nursing education today. To begin with, not all nursing students have the same levels of motivation or learning abilities. It is with cognisance of providing quality care for patients that the role of the nurse educator has to be to enhance nursing students' learning using scientific evidence based teaching. Research around teaching and learning processes is an important part of the delivery of quality education, which in turn impacts on students' learning results and experiences, thereby, ensuring holistic biopsychosocial care to patients. The main aim of teaching and learning in nursing, at all levels, is to enhance the nurses' contribution to assist the individuals, families and communities in promoting and preserving health, well-being and to efficiently respond to illnesses. We hope that this book can be used as a resource to increase the body of knowledge in teaching and learning in nursing, thereby enhancing the role and contribution of health care professionals to clinical practice.
