Praise for Putting Patients First

"Frampton, Gilpin, and Charmel have collected an exceptional and long overdue mix of history, philosophy, practical application, and business sense. The contributions include a broad range of the pioneers who have led this revolution in patient-centered care. This is a must-read for anyone who cares about the future of health care."
D. Kirk Hamilton, Watkins Hamilton Ross Architects, founding president of the American College of Healthcare Architects

"This one-of-a-kind book relating the history, successes, and evolution of The Planetree Model and Patient-Centered Care is very timely for addressing this crisis of caring in our conventional health care institutions. It is a practical and ethical guide for transformation of health care, from the inside out. It should be a must-read for all health care institutions and practitioners interested and committed to deep reform."
Jean Watson, Distinguished Professor of Nursing, University of Colorado Health Sciences Center and recipient of the National Norman Cousins Fetzer Award
