Feedback:
Patient-centered care considers cultural traditions, personal preferences, values, families,
m m m m m m m m




m and lifestyles. Clients become active participants in their own care, and monitoring health
m m m m m m m m m m m m




m becomes the client's responsibility. To help clients and their healthcare providers make
m m m m m m m m m m m




m better decisions, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) has developed
m m m m m m m m m m m




m a series of tools that empower clients and assist providers in achieving desired outcomes,
m m m m m m m m m m m m m




m including client-reported functional status indicators. Computer-assisted robotic surgical
m m m m m m m




techniques, electronic health records, andcontinuous glucose monitoring in the hospital are
m m m m m m m m m m m m




m all technological advances in healthcare, but they do not help the client become a more
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m




m active participant in his or hercare, and thus are not good examples of patient-centered
m m m m m m m m m m m m m m




m care.

m home and work environment, support networks, gender, culture, and availability of health

resources necessary to attain and maintain health. A medical erroron the part of the client's
