INTRODUCTIONPatient and Family centred care (PFCC) is defined as the framework to generateawareness and impart ethical code of conduct in the professionals to deliver qualitativehealthcare services. This consists of principles such as information sharing, giving respect anddignity to maintain cordial relations with the patients and promote participation for betterdelivery and quality of nursing interventions (Mahama, 2012). This assignment is going tohighlight the role of nursing practices in promoting aspects of PFCC and examine its positiveimpact on both family and the child as well. It would be helpful in leading a fulfilling life interms of today's fast paced changing dynamics of surroundings. Moreover, there are two mostimportant concepts such as enabling and empowerment in addressing the challenges andobstacles of nurses while attending patients is going to be evaluated. Lastly, Nursinginterventions are discussed which is suitable for the child’s developmental stage and fewstrategies are proposed to reduce the negative effects of hospitalisation.MAIN BODYImpact of P&FCC on family and childTraditional models of paediatric care mainly focuses on complete patient care, nursing,functions etc. This model is achieved through one to one interaction between professional andpatient (Lewis, 2013). Whereas, P&FCC mainly focusses not only on the relationship betweenpatients and professions but it also focusses on partnership between families, parents, patients,staff, professionals etc. In other words it is a hospital culture based and centred upon families andpatients care or seeks to improve health through eyes of patients and their families. P&FCC havevarious kinds of positive impact on patients and their families as they focus on both of them. Oneof the positive impact of P&FCC on families, patients and children is collaboration (Baird,2014). As the name suggest collaboration means an action of working together in order toproduce something new. All families, patients and professionals work together in building andimproving a healthy environment. If it is compared to traditional model of paramedic care thencollaboration impact of P&FCC is way better than traditional model as collaboration impact allthe involved people like families, patients, professionals etc. (empowerment, 2013). If both themodel and impact are contrast and compared then it can be said that collaboration in all thehealth care services is one of the most important element for better delivery especially in

organizations which provide health care services as their focus is on health of both patient andtheir families. Whereas Traditional model draws a formal line between patients and professionalswhich creates a distance between them as involvement of patients families is extremely low inthis model (Jason, 2014). P&FCC both patients and families are administered and taken care ofby the professionals which creates a bond between them whereas In traditional model bondbetween professionals, patients and their families is weak.Enabling and empowermentEnabling in simple words can be defined as a traditional way to provide someone withresources, opportunity and authority to do something or to make something possible. Whileempowerment can be defined as increase in degree of self-determination and autonomy in peoplewhich enables them to represent their interest in responsible way (McCorkle & et.al., 2011). Useof these concepts are continuously increasing in paramedic nursing care in the hospitals or inprimary health care services. Its growth is continuously shaping healthcare services in a differentway (Mitchell, 2012). These two concepts can be applied in health care services for providingvarious benefits such as: These will increase awareness in families regarding all the servicesthere are being provided. Also, it has risen health concerns among public with the help of improved digitaltechnologies in healthcare sector as patients can track their health, data digitally and can alsoreview them. These can also help in improving cost constraints within the patients as today moreand more patients are increasingly active in making healthcare decisions for their families andthemselves (Erlich, 2014). Patients are becoming more aware in controlling their health care costand focusing on getting cost benefit in healthcare. These two concepts can be applied inpaediatric nursing care for such reasons. Moreover, these aid in establishing cordial relations between the patients and theprofessionals for providing qualitative services in terms of communication and betterapproachability. The professionals understand their responsibility levels and make the entireprocedure more convenient for giving quality levels to the patients (Castro & et.al., 2016).Moreover, they would be able to give their services in ethical code of conduct and maintain thedignity and respect of the patients.
