Communities of Practice in Health and Social Care highlights
how communities of practice (CoPs) can make service development and
quality improvement in health and social care easier to initiate
and more sustainable.
Using a series of case studies from the UK and Canada the book
demonstrates how the theory of CoPs is implemented in the delivery
of health and social care and highlights the associated potential,
complexities, advantages and disadvantages.
Communities of Practice in Health and Social Care equips practitioners, managers, educators and practice mentors with the knowledge and skills to facilitate the development and maintenance of Communities of Practice and highlights how the effects of Communities of Practice might be made explicit.
