There is increasing development and use of care pathways and a growing demand for guidance and advice on how to develop them. This practical guide is intended to meet this demand. It reflects the latest experience and incorporates best practice with contributions from highly experienced members of the National Pathways Association. The book is in two parts: the handbook, which defines and describes pathways and the roles of healthcare professionals involved with them, and the tool kit, which provides a detailed step-by-step guide to developing a care pathway.

Case studies, legal questions and common difficulties are all included and examined.
