Lifeworld-led healthcare is more than patient-led care: an existential view of well-being

TL;DR: It is argued that the existential view of well-being that the alternative conceptualisation offers is pivotal to lifeworld-led care in that it provides a direction for care and practice that is intrinsically and positively health focused in its broadest and most substantial sense.
Journal ArticleDOI

The humanization of healthcare: A value framework for qualitative research

TL;DR: In this paper, a conceptual framework for humanizing care is proposed, and eight dimensions of humanization are provided, which together, constitute a comprehensive value base for considering both the potentially humanizing and dehumanizing elements in caring systems and interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lifeworld-led healthcare: revisiting a humanising philosophy that integrates emerging trends.

TL;DR: This paper revisits the potential of Husserl’s notion of the lifeworld and how lifeworld-led care could provide important ideas and values that are central to the humanisation of healthcare practice, without constraining the possible varieties of confluent practices.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dwelling-mobility : An existential theory of well-being

TL;DR: This article offers an existential theory of well-being that is guided by Heidegger's later writings on “homecoming” and considers how the separate notions of existential mobility and existential dwelling as discrete emphases can be developed to describe multiple variations ofWell-being possibilities.
Journal ArticleDOI

A pragmatic parallel arm multi-centre randomised controlled trial to assess the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a group-based fatigue management programme (FACETS) for people with multiple sclerosis

TL;DR: FACETS is effective in reducing fatigue severity and increasing fatigue self-efficacy, and it is difficult to assess the additional cost in terms of cost-effectiveness as improvements in fatigue are not reflected in the QALY outcomes, with no significant differences between FACETS and CLP.
