Patient-centered care focuses on the individual needs and preferences of patients, involving them in their own care. This approach can lead to improved health outcomes by:
Enhanced Communication: Clear and open communication between nurses and patients ensures that patients understand their conditions and treatment plans. Increased Patient Engagement: When patients are actively involved in their care, they are more likely to adhere to treatment plans and make healthier lifestyle choices. Personalized Care: Tailoring care plans to meet the specific needs of each patient can lead to more effective and satisfactory outcomes.
