Think back to your most recent audiology appointment. Were you actively involved in the care that you received? Could you give feedback to the audiologist and ask questions? Was your feedback taken seriously?
These are elements of person-centered care: an approach that involves you and your family fully in all aspects of your healthcare services. In a person-centered approach, you are viewed as an individual and a whole person- not as a medical problem to solve.
What else is involved in person-centered care? This image has a list of examples. Audiology Outside the Box strives to provide person-centered care and is always open to feedback about how to do that even better.
Have you experienced person-centered care, either in audiology or in other healthcare services? What can healthcare providers do differently to become more person-centered? Feel free to share your experiences and ideas here!
