In this narrative article, the author, a long-term cancer survivor, reflects on his personal interactions with the healthcare system over a period of 14 years in order to highlight the importance of delivering patient-centered care. He makes a case for why quality of care assessments are incomplete if they focus on clinical indicators of quality alone and exclude systematic assessment of the patient-centered aspects of care from the patient's perspective. The important role played by patient-centered care in reducing patient suffering and enhancing well-being is underscored in this commentary.
在这篇叙述性文章中，作者是一位长期癌症幸存者，他回顾了自己在14年期间与医疗系统的个人互动，以强调提供以患者为中心的护理的重要性。他提出了一个观点，即如果护理质量评估仅关注质量的临床指标，而从患者角度排除对护理中以患者为中心方面的系统评估，那么这种评估就是不完整的。这篇评论强调了以患者为中心的护理在减轻患者痛苦和增进幸福感方面所发挥的重要作用。
