Analysis and Conceptualization of Healthcare Systems and Training in the Context of Technological Innovation and Personalization

Abstract

This chapter will analyse personalization within the context of technological innovation. It will first of all clarify the conceptual terms used in the debate, in particular patient, person-centered and people-centered care and their various uses and limitations. It will then focus on specific issues of personalization and technology in emerging areas, notably in interprofessional practices and in medical training. This will allow greater understanding of both the possibilities and emerging tensions in the integration of personalization and technological innovation in healthcare systems from the training stage to its integration in various professional cadres.

Integrated care competencies and their association with cross‐cultural competence among registered nurses: A cross‐sectional questionnaire survey

“…‘Client‐centred care’, ‘patient‐centred care’ and ‘person‐centred care’ are interchangeable terms used in health sciences (McMillan et al., 2013 ). Patient‐centred care emphasizes partnership with individuals to consider their culture and belief in health services (Jo Delaney, 2018 ) and rejects the paternalist model of care where doctors know everything and make the diagnosis; rather, it provides a more holistic approach and focuses not only on the disease and pathology but also on the individual experiencing the illness (Bogaert et al., 2022 ). This approach is used to redesign healthcare to enhance health outcomes and client satisfaction (Jo Delaney, 2018 ).…”
