WHO Framework on Integrated People-Centered Health Services

The WHO Framework on Integrated People-Centered Health Services is a guide to making healthcare more coordinated and responsive to individuals' needs. It emphasizes that healthcare should be organized around people, not diseases or institutions, ensuring easy access, collaboration among providers, and respect for patients' preferences. The goal is to improve the quality and efficiency of care by integrating services across different providers and levels of care, making health systems more comprehensive, compassionate, and tailored to each person’s unique circumstances. This approach aims to promote better health outcomes and a more equitable, patient-focused healthcare experience.
