Humanizing medicine: a patient perspective.
Social Work in Health Care 2024 March 25
The purpose of this research was to explore patients' shared perceptions of what makes them feel valued and devalued during in-patient and out-patient medical visits and patients' recommendations for increasing feelings of value. A criterion-based snowball sampling method was used to recruit participants who are adults living in Anchorage, Alaska, and have had an in-patient or out-patient medical visit within at least the past year. Semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted using eight open-ended questions via Zoom web conferencing. Data were stored and managed electronically. A thematic analysis approach guided data analysis. A phenomenological approach was applied to capture participants' shared experiences. This study's key findings highlight a shared patient perception that communication is paramount in conveying value: conversations with healthcare providers instill value, feeling valued is essential to well-being, feeling devalued is driven by depersonalization, and devaluation perpetuates discontinuity in healthcare.
