How Can Healthcare Providers Respect Patient Values?
Healthcare providers can respect patient values by actively listening to their concerns, preferences, and goals. This can be achieved through open and honest communication, shared decision-making, and providing personalized care. Providers should also be aware of cultural, religious, and personal beliefs that may influence a patient's values and treatment choices. By doing so, they foster a trusting relationship and ensure that the patient's values are honored throughout the cancer care journey.
