Your Patients Need You to Choose Their Side The Future of HIV Care

    • Medicine

The concept of "patient-centered care" can feel both nebulous and obvious: As a clinician treating a patient, are you not by definition providing patient-centered care? There is a key difference, however, between care that focuses on the patient and care that centers each patient as a unique individual in need of a specifically tailored approach.
 
 
This month, podcast co-hosts Myles Helfand and Juan Michael Porter II dig into this issue, and discuss how conversations about achieving long-term successful health outcomes for people living with HIV must start with the most basic of tenets: Believe your patients, trust them, and show that you’re willing to stand up for their rights to existence and equity.
