Abstract
Patients are central to healthcare clinicians and organizations but often subsidiary to clinical expertise, knowledge, workplace processes, and culture. Shifting societal values, technology, and regulations have remoulded the patient-clinician relationship, augmenting the patient's voice within the healthcare construct. Scaffolding this restructure is the global imperative to deliver person-centered care (PCC). The aim of the scoping review was to explore and map the intersection between patient feedback and strategies to improve the provision of PCC within acute hospitals in Australia. Database searches yielded 493 articles, with 16 studies meeting inclusion criteria. Integration of patient feedback varied from strategy design, through to multi-staged input throughout the initiative and beyond. Initiatives actioning patient feedback fell broadly into four categories: clinical practice, educational strategies, governance, and measurement. How clinicians can invite feedback and support patients to engage equally remains unclear, requiring further exploration of strategies to propel clinician-patient partnerships, scaffolded by hospital governance structures.
