Patient Advocacy for Health Care Quality specifically examines not just what the problems are in healthcare quality but how advocacy ' by professionals and lay-people from within and from outside health systems ' can help ensure that best practices get adopted.

In highly readable prose this text blends many concrete examples, real-life vignettes, and up-to-date research literature. An emphasis on conceptual frameworks, debates, and ethical issues within the field makes the text appealing to graduate-level learners. Authored by real life advocates working in the field, this book is a window into the realities of advocating in many different roles (as a physician, nurse or public health educator; as a hospital administrator; as a parent; as a lobbyist; as the head of a non-profit organization, as a researcher, etc.).
