Abstract
Background: Patient-centred care (PCC) helps multidisciplinary health teams to follow informed decision-making practices, and improved healthcare treatments are ensured for patients. The need for significant changes in the healthcare system can be identified with the help of centred patient care, and new healthcare systems are designed and revolve around patient needs. The purpose of the review was to evaluate patient-centred care and the concept of centeredness. Review results: PCC assists in meeting the targets of healthcare settings for patients. This aids the health team to ensure that patient nutrition, cleanliness, emotional, physical comfort, and psychological needs are fulfilled. PCC contributes to reducing the length of patient stay at the hospital, and chances of future admission to the hospital are also lowered. The review may assist to develop better insight into patient-centred care, its dimensions, possible benefits of PCC and perspectives of centeredness. Conclusion: patient-centred care aids to meet the objectives of improved patient care outcomes, lower treatment costs, and increased satisfaction with the quality of health care facilities cared for in the health sector. Healthcare organizations have begun to focus on individualised-oriented care, and they no longer follow traditional procedures to meet the needs of patients. The patient-centred care model showed that health care providers could be dedicated to their work and ready to meet the health expectations set for patients. PCC reduces patients' length of stay in the hospital, and the chances of recovery from chronic illness also increase. This review contributes to the field of health by highlighting important aspects of patient-centred care that would create cost-effective care, improve hospital services, emphasise communication and promote aspects of patient caring skills.
