Philosophical stance underpinning an PAR into leading
the development of person-centred care
Shaun CardiffFontys University of Applied Sciences

WHY?
Explicating the philosophical stance contributes to the ontological and epistemological authenticity of the study (Titchen and Higgs, 2007) and helps the reader follow and assess rigour of decisions made during the study.
Background
PC culture
Effective workplace Culture
(Manley et al, unpublished)
PCN framework (McCormack & McCance, 2006)
Leadership:Transformational?(Bass & Riggio, 2006)
Person-centred?(Plas & Lewin,2001)
How can person-centred leadership be developed on a nursing unit?
How can person-centred care be developed on a nursing unit?
AIMS
Critical Social Science Critical Realisthelp participants free themselves from any shackles inhibiting their flourishing i.e. obstacles to person-centred relationships.enable participants to transform any undesirable aspects of social reality by journeying through Enlightenment and Empowerment towards Emancipation.
generate plausible explanations on how (transforming) social structures, practices and conventions give rise to a perceived reality of person-centred relationships.
Critical Realism
Realist ontology +
Relativist epistomology
Intransitivity – “what we percieve is not necessarily all that there is”
–Intransitive – the ‘what is’
–Transitive – the ‘what we can know’

Philosophy - what do you believe in?
Stratification – “what we can percieve
emerges from what is”
❇ Empirical layer – perceivable
⇪ Actual layer – events
Real layer – generative mechanisms
Tulips from ..
Generative mechanisms
-> Germination
-> TulipsMechanisms can be:
unexercised;
exercised but not actualised or counteracted;
exercised actualised but not perceived;
exercised actualised and perceived by humans
Transformational model of
society
Social structures, conventions &
practices
Human activity
Existential relationship(not causal)
Mind independance (not people independance)

Empowerment – know how

Emancipation - transform
Application
• Units A&B, high turnover of staff.
• ‘B’ not perceive the reality (intransitive), nothing changes (reproduction). Apathy has a long history on the unit, is embedded and embodied
• ‘A’ perceives (transitive) investigates mechanisms (enlightenment) intends & attends to change (empowered) transform & continuously readdress culture (emancipation)
Knowledge
• Knowing that • Knowing how• Knowing what it is like
Surfacing knowledge only via (traditional) cognitive verbal communication limits the type of knowledge exposed.
Using creative expression enables the surfacing of pre-conscious & embodied knowledges
Rational & cognitive
Rational & cognitive and/or pre-conscious & embodied
Generation
Creating communicative spaces where:• Personal knowledges are shared
(creatively)• Reflection, critique, contestation takes
place• Intersubjective agreements, mutual
understandings and unforced consensus about what to do
• Co-constructing new knowledge & ‘plausible’ explanations
So, is this all just a fairytale
