A Patient-Centred approach to TB care and management is based on the patient’s needs and mutual respect between the patient and the provider.
  • A central element of the patient-centred strategy is the use of measures that are tailored to the individual patient’s circumstances and are mutually acceptable to the patient and the provider.
  • Promoting adherence through a patient-centred approach includes choosing with the patient the most convenient time and place for DOT and, when possible, providing other social and medical services.
