The nature of person-centred care makes it a difficult concept to define. This is because when we are truly person-centred, how this looks will be different in every situation and for every individual.

Rather than a definition, The Health Foundation (2014) have developed a framework identifying four principles, which capture and underpin person-centred care. Whatever care task we undertake; it should be done with these principles in mind.
