Person- and family-centred care

Health services are most effective when they are flexible and responsive to the needs and values of the person receiving care. We work with patients and families in three ways to ensure a people-centred approach to care:

• Through co-design - we collaborate with patients and families to plan and design services or improve the experience with services. Co-design recognizes that the patient and family is part of the team, with expertise in their lived experience.
• In partnership - we partner with patients and families to actively involve them in initiatives that support person- and family-centred care delivery.
  
• With input from - we gather insights from patients and families through advisory committees, surveys, focus groups, and day-to-day conversations. These contributions help shape service improvements and ensure care reflects what matters most to those we serve.
