Description

"The evolution of attitudes and roles in society is reflected in many facets of our lives: In the medical community, these changes are most evident in the shifting relationship between doctor and patient. Confronted with the demand for more egalitarian approaches to health care, physicians may find themselves ill prepared to accept - and participate in - this redefinition of traditional medical practice. In Patient-Centered Medicine, the authors present a six-component model to assist health practitioners in expanding and strengthening their relationships with patients. Thoughtful discussions and case studies present topics as diverse as conceptualizations of ill health, consideration of the patient as an individual, the establishment of goals and cooperative strategy between physician and patient, and the realistic allocation of time, energy, and other resources of the health care provider. Emphasizing a holistic philosophy, the work encourages physicians to surpass treatment based strictly on a one-dimensional, biomedical assessment of their patients - and achieve greater results. Professionals and advanced students in all health care fields will appreciate this illuminating and provocative volume."--Jacket.
