Aims & Scope

The Journal of Multidisciplinary Healthcare ( JMDH ) aims to represent and publish research in healthcare areas delivered by practitioners of different disciplines. This includes studies and reviews conducted by multidisciplinary teams (combining or involving several academic disciplines or professional specializations) as well as research which evaluates or reports the results or conduct of such teams or healthcare processes in general.  The journal covers a very wide range of areas and we welcome submissions from practitioners at all levels and from all over the world. Good healthcare is not bounded by person, place or time and the journal aims to reflect this.
