people in hospital and there have been many concerns expresses in
United Kingdom policy documents about the quality of care for older
people in hospitals. Autonomy is considered to be one of the
central ethical principles of health care practice and as such is a
significantly relevant concept for nurses. This book presents the
results of a study undertaken with nurses who work with older
people in hospitals. Issues arising from the study include the
effects of institutional constraints on autonomy. A framework for
person-centred practice has been developed from this work that
emphasizes the values of the individual and their needs, wants and
desires. The role of the nurse in facilitating practice that
respects an individual's values is outlined, and the importance of
nurses in negotiating relationships with older people is also
emphasized.

This book is the first ever to offer a contemporary collection of
different perspectives on person-centredness in international
doctoral nursing research. The research in the book is based on the
ideas and values of personhood and person-centeredness, which have
been used and can be seen to guide research approaches, inform
research designs and theorize research findings. Further, a
specific framework for person-centred nursing is embedded
throughout the research studies presented in the text. The
Person-centred Nursing Framework (PCNF) developed by Brendan
McCormack and Tanya McCance in 2010, is recognized as a nursing
theory and this book further develops it as a basis for research
and for advancing person-centredness in nursing. The framework
informs all stages of the research process, from design through to
dissemination.The book is structured into a number of highly
engaging chapters written by doctoral candidates, and recently
graduated candidates. The opening and closing chapters, written by
the editors, place the subsequent chapters in a global context of
person-centredness and nursing. The potential for person-centred
nursing research to be a global movement is recognized and debated.
The subsequent chapters lead readers through philosophical ideas,
methodologies and methods whilst also offering reflective and
honest insights into learning how to become a person-centred
researcher. This field is growing and developing but yet there is
no specific book available. As a result, researchers spend
considerable time and effort translating existing research
methodologies into person-centred perspectives. This book fills
this gap and acts as a key resource for future nurse researchers.
The text is intended for, and benefits nursing doctoral candidates,
masters candidates and academic staff who teach and supervise
research candidates; it may also appeal to other graduate learners.
The book has international contributions which makes it appealing
internationally.
Advocating doll therapy as an intervention for people with
dementia, this book combines theory and evidence to show its many
