Patient-centered care is a type of medical care that takes into consideration the needs, decisions, and values of the patient. The family is equally catered for and given consideration during the period of care. The patients should be properly briefed of all the treatment plans needed for their care. Medical terms that might seem difficult to comprehend should be explained and the implications of the diagnosis described. While this is done, the patient's emotional and physical needs should not be left unattended.
So, in all, patient-centered care empowers the patient and makes him the focus of the care.
