Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to empirically explore and demonstrate the ability of healthcare professionals to attain professional fulfilment when providing healthcare inspired by "value shops". Design/methodology/approach: A qualitative case study incorporating interviews and observations was conducted. Findings: The empirical data suggest that the professional fulfilment of both physicians and nurses is facilitated when care is organized through â value shopsâ. Both groups of professionals state that they are able to return to their âprofessional coreâ. Originality/value: The beneficial outcomes of organizing healthcare inspired by the âvalue shopâ have previously been explored in terms of efficiency and quality. However, the professional fulfilment of healthcare professionals when providing such care has not been explicitly addressed. Professional fulfilment is vital in order to safeguard high-quality care, as well as healthcare professionals' involvement and engagement in implementing quality improvements. This paper highlights the fact that care provision inspired by the "value shop"may facilitate professional fulfilment, which further strengthens the potential positive outcomes of the "value shop" when utilized in a healthcare setting. © 2020, Christian Gadolin, Thomas Andersson, Erik Eriksson and Andreas Hellström.
