The ongoing reforms of healthcare systems following the Covid-19 pandemic are driving the creation of a new vision of care. This new vision supports individuals throughout their entire lives encompassing all aspects of a person's life. The challenging goal is to ensure an equitable quality of life without disease, which goes beyond merely meeting health needs. Achieving this requires cultural change alongside the proposed organizational changes. In this way, public health is shared responsibility of the entire healthcare workforce. The responsibility is not exclusively of doctors and nurses but also of other health professional into the healthcare system such as those of the rehabilitative, diagnostic, and of prevention areas. At the global level, all health professionals, without exception, play a crucial role in advancing healthcare services. All health professionals are, in fact, involved in new discoveries, cultivation of professionalism, technological advancements, organizational improvements, practical innovations, and more.
This Research Topic aims to collect contributions from all health professionals, particularly those in rehabilitative, diagnostic, and preventive fields, to continuously optimize and improve integrated clinical pathways as basis of public health. Today, ensuring public health is possible only by promoting integrated social and health services within personalized care pathways by multi-professional and multidisciplinary working groups. Innovation, research-intervention, and health management serve as "neutral" grounds to investigate the efficiency and effectiveness of the multi-professional and multidisciplinary approach in accompanying the assisted person through their clinical pathway. Moreover, task-shifting, as excellence element, is applied daily in these working. Also, this collection seeks to provide an additional avenue for European mapping and recognition of all health professionals acknowledged by each Member State. Mutual knowledge among countries regarding accepted health professionals, especially in the fields of rehabilitation, diagnostic, and prevention, can positively influence the broader dissemination of common public health policies, enhancing the achievement of positive results.
This Research Topic welcomes contributions from health professionals worldwide, particularly in the fields of rehabilitation, diagnostics, and prevention, on (but not limited to) the following topics:
- Equal access to personalized care pathways
- Respect for patients' self-determination
- Health literacy to improve users' navigation of health services
- Effective communication
- Integrated social and healthcare as an expression of mature task-shifting
- Multi-professional and multidisciplinary working groups in research-intervention
- Managerial innovation in the revision of organizational models
- Sustainability of health promotion in joint health management
In line with the scope of this collection, original research articles are preferred for submission.
