Abstract
Person-centered medicine is dedicated to the promotion of health as a state of physical, mental, socio-cultural and spiritual wellbeing as well as to the reduction of disease, and founded on mutual respect for the dignity and responsibility of each individual person. The concept of person centered care has evolved over the years and the main focus has been on moving further away from biological reductionism that has plagued western medicine. In the recent years, a critical evaluation of the current practices in psychiatry and the emerging lived experience research has helped garner momentum to the narratives around person centered care. In times of psycho-social adversity, and especially when health resources are inadequate, Person Centered Medicine offers a ray of hope. The article will look into some of the emerging perspectives in person centered care.
