Abstract

The author, who works in the field of health care, identifies the development of an innovative best practices psychosocial rehabilitation principles template, which provides both a conceptual framework and some core dimensions for rehabilitation practice and focused patient care. The steps and process in the development of the template are documented and reflect both staff and patient input in its formulation. There is an articulation, from an integrated perspective, of a patient‐centred, complementary, empowering and interdependent rehabilitation principles framework. There is also a delineation of the rationale for the template’s inception, literature review, conceptual composition, inherent challenges and potential applicability for enhancing rehabilitation care, outcomes and quality management.
