Patient and family-centered care is quality health care accomplished through the collaboration of patients, families, and health care providers. Primary Children's Hospital has created an environment where the patient is at the center, and the staff and families work in partnership to ensure:

  • The patient is treated with respect and dignity.
  • The patient and family feel their concerns are heard.
  • The patient and family have the opportunity to participate in rounds and shift report.
  • The patient, family, and staff work together in collaboration to assure the patient receives the best care.
