Abstract
Patient-centred care (PCC) has been defined in many ways over the past three decades. Core components of patient-centred care have been identified as: respect for patient preferences and values; emotional support; physical comfort; information, communication and education; continuity and transition; coordination of care; involvement of the family and friends and access to care (Epstein and Street, 2011). The first of these — respect for patients’ needs and preferences — has emerged as the most consistent element among the many definitions of patient-centred care (Luxford et al., 2011). This, in turn, entails facilitating patients’ involvement in their own care by sharing information with patients, exploring patients’ perspectives and values, helping with decision-making, facilitating access to care and enabling patients to follow through with behavioural changes (Epstein et al., 2010).
