Dr. Besigye Kabahena Innocent
Patient-centred care is a philosophy that prioritizes shared control and decision-making between the clinician and patient. It involves exploring both the disease and the patient's subjective illness experience, understanding the whole person within their social context, establishing common ground on problem definition and treatment goals, and enhancing the clinician-patient relationship through compassion, caring, and empathy. The practice of PCC requires addressing the patient's agenda of concerns and expectations alongside the clinician's diagnostic and treatment agenda.
