Abstract

Patient articles in professional journals used to be seen as an invasion of territory. Now patients are invited to contribute. We need to share each others’ space if we are to understand one another.So writes Mitzi Blennerhassett, one of the contributors. This is the first in a series of special issues of Quality in Primary Care that we plan to publish as a regular feature. As well as this issue on the ‘Patient Perspectives on Quality in Primary Care’ we are also planning an issue on ‘Commissioning for Quality Improvement’ later this year and next year the ‘Development of Nursing Practice and Scope’, ‘Professional Regulation’ and finally ‘Organisational and Educational Interventions for Quality Improvement’.
