How does the chapter differentiate between patient-centred and person-centred care?

The chapter differentiates between patient-centred and person-centred care by highlighting that patient-centred care focuses on achieving a 'functional life' for the patient, while person-centred care emphasizes enabling a 'meaningful life.'

Patient-centred care emerged in response to the limitations of the traditional biomedical model, aiming to address the functional needs of patients. In contrast, person-centred care developed from practices in dementia care and focuses on the broader aspects of a person's life, aiming to enhance their overall well-being and life satisfaction. This approach includes shared decision-making, where healthcare professionals collaborate with individuals to make informed choices about their care, ensuring that the care provided aligns with the individual's values and preferences.
