title: Collaborative planning of patient care in the prenatal, labor and delivery, and neonatal settings.
abstract: Self-care consumer and nursing movements have emphasized the role of the patient as an active participant in the planning and implementation of care. A nursing model that focuses on the interaction that takes place between the nurse and patient as they develop and implement a collaborative plan of care is presented. Three examples of how the model has been used in maternal-child health settings are given.
