Abstract
Purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between patient centered care (PCC) and distress among infertile women visiting the Fertility Clinic at Castle Street Hospital. Further, the level of distress based on demographic factors such as education level, age, occupation, income level and period of marriage was planned to identify. Sample size was 393 infertile women visited the Fertility Clinic at Castle Street Hospital. The infertile women with lower level of education, lower income level, older age and longer married life without children were found to be highly distressed. Further, there was no significant relationship between the PCC and distress level among infertile women. The distress level of infertile women visiting Castle Hospital Sri Lanka cannot be reduced through PCC initiatives in the hospital and the factors of age, educational level, family income level, duration of married life and employment could have determined the level of distress.
