Patient and Family-Centered Care

Patient and Family-Centered Care is a healthcare approach that actively involves patients and their families in decision-making and care planning. It recognizes that individuals are experts about their own lives and values, and that family members provide essential support and insight. This approach promotes open communication, respect, and collaboration between healthcare providers and families to improve health outcomes, ensure personalized care, and create a supportive environment. By valuing the perspectives of both patients and their loved ones, it fosters trust and enhances the overall healthcare experience.
