Holmstrom I et al. – Patient–centeredness can be the goal of an encounter between patient and caregiver. As a process, it is of great value in the process of patient empowerment. Patient empowerment appears to be broader than patient–centeredness, and may place greater demands on caregivers and the organisation of healthcare. Patient–centeredness and patient empowerment are complementary concepts which do not oppose one–another. Patient empowerment can be achieved by patient–centeredness, but patients can also empower themselves.
