Title: Home infusion service delivery system model: a conceptual framework for family-centered care in pediatric home care delivery. Author: Biggert RA, Watkins JL, Cook SE. Journal: J Intraven Nurs; 1992; 15(4):210-8. PubMed ID: 1500990. Abstract: The Home Infusion Service Delivery System model is presented as a conceptual framework for the delivery of pediatric home care. This bicycle-shaped model provides important insights into the interrelationships of available resources for parents seeking home health care for their child. The model is based on nine key elements of family-centered care. Discussions of the model identify the roles and relationships among the family system, four interdependent service delivery systems, the physician, and a total quality management program that coordinates the health care delivery for the child. Examples focus on the delivery of pediatric home infusion therapy. By supporting the family as the primary care giver, this model provides a better fit between consumer need and service delivery.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
