Summary: There is a global drive towards integrated mental healthcare, but there is a lack of clarity on what patient-responsive services should entail and how to adequately measure and improve provider readiness. A proposed four-step framework for integrating responsive mental healthcare in Kenya prioritizes understanding and demonstration of multidimensional skills by providers, with elements of provider sensitization, continuous supervision, professional training, and leadership empowerment.

Summary: This study aims to investigate the association between patient-centered communication (PCC) and primary care quality. The results showed poor communication between primary care providers and patients, and the PCC model has not been achieved. However, interactions with a higher score of PCC were more likely to have a correct diagnosis and treatment, longer consultation time, more unnecessary drugs, and higher medical expenditure.

Summary: The review suggests that patient-accessible electronic health records (PAEHRs) have the potential to contribute positively to patient-centered care. However, concerns from professionals about the impact of transparency on the patient-clinician relationship, as well as the importance of a patient-centered attitude, need to be addressed. Significant benefits for disadvantaged groups will only be achieved through easily accessible and user-friendly PAEHRs.

Summary: Patient-centred care is recognized as an important aspect of quality health care, but there is a gap between policy and practice. This study conducted a literature review to understand the development of patient-centred care in acute hospital settings over the past decade. The results showed that patient-centred care research mainly focused on developed countries and covered multiple perspectives, such as patients, nurses, and healthcare organizations. The study also identified factors that facilitate patient-centred care.
