On Being Patient-Centered…
At Atchison Hospital & Clinics, we focus on patient-centered care. We ask each of our providers to tell us what being patient-centered means to them personally.
“To me, being patient-centered means listening to patients’ concerns, determining their needs, and providing high-quality care,” says Dr. Warholic, “all done in a manner which is respectful of their values and ultimately improves their physical, mental, and emotional well-being.”
