Traditional centered model of care

Care is focused on medical diagnoses, disability and deficit, using standardized assessments and treatments. Schedules and routines are determined by the facility. Professionals make major decisions about treatment. Work is task oriented. Services are impersonal. Focuses on quality of treatment as defined by regulations and professional standards. The facility lacks a sense of home, potentially leading to a sense of isolation, loneliness and homelessness.
