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




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




the client's responsibility. To help clients and their healthcare providers make better decisions,
t t t t t t t t t t t t t




the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) has developed a series of tools that
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t




empower clients and assist providers in achieving desired outcomes, including client-reported
t t t t t t t t t t t




functional status indicators.Computer-assistedroboticsurgicaltechniques, electronichealth
t t t t t t t t t




records,andcontinuous glucose monitoring in the hospital are all technological advances in
t t t t t t t t t t t t t




healthcare, but they do not help the client become a more active participant in his or hercare, and
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t




thus are not goodexamples ofpatient-centered care.

The social conditions in which people live, their income, social status, education, literacy, home
t t t t t t t t t t t t t




and workenvironment, support networks,gender, culture, and availability of health services are
t t t t t t t t t t t t t




the social determinants of health. These conditions have an impact on the extent to which a
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t




person or community possesses the physical, social, and personalresourcesnecessaryto attain
t t t t t t t t t t t t t




and maintain health. Amedicalerroron the part of the client's primary care provider or nurse
t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t t




would not constitute a social determinant ofthe client's health.
