Description

Patient-centered care is a way of thinking and doing things that considers patients partners in the development of a healthcare plan designed to meet their specific needs.

It involves knowledge of the individual as a person and integrates that knowledge into their plan of care.

Patient-centered care is central to the discussion of healthcare at the insurance and hospital-level.

The quality of the service is evaluated more deeply from all the healthcare components, including insurance payments.

It is the start of a new client- and patient-centered healthcare, which is based on a profound respect for patients and the obligation to care for them in partnership with them.

Healthcare has been lacking a strategy to teach patients how to take care of themselves as much as they possibly can.

In countries with socialized healthcare, patients don’t go to the emergency room unless it is necessary; they have a physician on call instead.

This affords more personalized care and avoids patients getting lost in the hospital system. This book advocates the critical role of patients in the health system and the need to encourage healthy living.

We need to educate patients on how to be more self-aware, giving them the tools to better understand what they need to do to achieve healthy lifestyles, and the protocols and policies to sustain a better life.

Prevention has always been the pinnacle of medical care.

It’s time to highlight and share this approach with patients and involve them as active participants in their own healthcare.

This is the method on which to build the new healthcare for the next century.
