Caring in hospitals – for iBooks

This unit considers the type of care offered in hospitals, using Leeds General Hospital as a case study. The unit looks at the people who have roles within the hospital, how they interact with each other and patients and what they consider to be ‘care’. The different approaches and contributions to care by doctors and nurses are explored and patients give their perspective on the care they receive. This study unit is just one of many that can be found on LearningSpace, part of OpenLearn, a collection of open educational resources from The Open University.
