Individualised care is the essence of nursing and regard for the individual is the battle against the impersonal institution. Unfortunately, attempts to manage the process of individualised care have often ended in failure (Ford and Walsh 1994). Some observers maintain that the rigid behaviour which characterises the nursing process contradicts the intuitive nature and individualistic approaches which are fundamental to nursing practice (Benner 1984). This article reviews the concept of critical pathways, a new approach to managing patient care.
个性化护理是护理的精髓，关注个体是对抗非人性化机构的关键。不幸的是，管理个性化护理过程的尝试往往以失败告终（福特和沃尔什，1994年）。一些观察家认为，护理过程中典型的刻板行为与护理实践的直观本质和个人主义方法相矛盾（本纳，1984年）。本文回顾了关键路径的概念，这是一种管理患者护理的新方法。
