Thus, while this is not Jaworska's intention, one can read her as offering a holistic theory of desire focused on a subclass of desires: those that can be said to constitute caring about something or someone (Jaworska 2007a; 2007b; 1999).
Also, these patients, because of their diagnosis and treatment modalities, are often in frequent contact with professional nurses and may therefore be better able to formulate their perceptions of what nurse behaviors constitute caring to them [ 1].
There is, however, no consensus about what constitutes care coordination, how to build an evidence base for care coordination [ 44], and how to develop coordination measures [ 45].
Attempts to define the good (or what constitutes care in a particular instance) cannot "precede practice, but form a part of it" [ 1].
Despite the tremendous interest in evaluating and improving care coordination, key challenges remain in reaching a consensus about what constitutes care coordination, building the evidence base for care coordination, and developing measures of coordination.
The ideal care pathway for district TB control constitutes: care at one of the diagnostic units (health centre or hospital) and referrals from clinics to diagnostic units or from health centres to hospitals [ 14, 15].
The field of care coordination has been described as 'immature' because of the inherent challenges around building consensus on 'what constitutes care coordination', as well as the need to advance the systematic study of care coordination to build an evidence base inclusive of care coordination measurement [ 3].
We actively sought to work with staff, promoting communication, trust, joint problem solving, knowledge sharing and mutually constituted care, and discouraging rivalries and hierarchical modes of working.
