Brief analysis of the best practice guideline by Registered Nurse's Association of Ontario—Facilitating Client Centred Learning (2012)

Effective mastery of disease-related knowledge and skills plays a positive role in the good outcomes of patients. However, the complex hygiene and health environment and the specialized health information and service accessible to patients make it difficult for patients with different health awareness to master relevant knowledge or skills effectively. Registered Nurse's Association of Ontario (RNAO) proposed the best practice guideline-Facilitating Client Centred Learning based on the social construction theory and the best evidence available. This paper tries to analyze the guideline briefly from its development group, scope of application, subject content, quality evaluation, subsidiary information and preliminary application.
