Abstrakt
A patient-centred attitude is a promising tendency in the improvement of health care not only at the level of an individual and a family, but also at the level of a community and a state. It does not seem that this tendency is a total contrast to ill-centred care.
It is a part of this care improving it with seriously perceived individualisation of care, an individualisation which has been rather only proclaimed than widely used. However, its integrating in clinical practise interferes with psychological, organisational, technical and even economical limits of the existing form of medical systems and the common ways of their functioning.
