The patient-centred care approach is the practice of caring for patients (and their families) in ways that are meaningful and valuable to the individual patient.  

 

  • It includes listening to, informing and involving patients in their care.
  • Successful treatment and care can only result when patients' preferences, values and needs are satisfactorily addressed along with clinical care. 
  • The diagnosis of tuberculosis should be early, accurate and affordable and the treatment is to be delivered in a manner that is easily accessible, affordable and acceptable to the patients. 
  • The confidentiality and dignity of the patient should be protected.
  • Prevention, management and mitigation of stigma and discrimination are essential elements of patient-centric care.
