Synopsis

Across the globe, patients are no longer passive recipients of care ― they are active participants, decision-makers and collaborators.

This timely volume explores the evolving landscape of patient and public involvement (PPI) in healthcare, focusing on its intersection with the healthcare professions. Drawing on international perspectives, the book examines how patients and professionals navigate changing roles, peer support networks and complex healthcare systems. It considers the sociological and practical implications of patient-centric care and its impact on clinical outcomes and resources.

This book brings fresh insight to a fast-developing field.
