    Introduction

    Patient-centered care is a fundamental concept in healthcare that emphasizes individual patient


    preferences, needs, and values. This discussion will delve into the superiority of different patient care
    models, the advantages of implementing a chosen model on a global scale, and the barriers to global
    implementation based on the insights from the provided sources.

    Question 1: Superior Patient Care Model

    Patient-centered care, as defined by the Institute of Medicine, focuses on respecting and responding to
    individual patient preferences, needs, and values. While various models exist, patient-centered care stands
    out for its emphasis on personalized care that prioritizes the health outcomes of the individual. This model
    not only improves individual health outcomes but also contributes to enhancing population health
    outcomes (Choudhury, 2020). The economic advantages of patient-centered care for hospitals and
    patients further underscore its significance in delivering quality healthcare (David et al., 2018).

    Question 2: Advantages of Global Implementation

    Implementing a patient-centered care model on a global scale offers numerous advantages. It promotes a
    more personalized approach to healthcare, leading to improved patient outcomes, increased satisfaction,
    and reduced healthcare disparities. By ensuring that patient values guide all clinical decisions, this model
    can enhance the quality of care provided worldwide (Choudhury, 2020).

    Question 3: Barriers to Global Implementation


    Despite the benefits, there are significant barriers to the global implementation of patient-centered care.
    These barriers include the current lack of agility within healthcare systems, financial constraints, and
    resistance to change from healthcare providers. Additionally, the ambiguity in defining patient-centered
    care and key components poses a challenge to its widespread adoption (Choudhury, 2020; BMJ Open,
    2019). Overcoming these barriers will require a concerted effort to restructure healthcare systems, address
    financial constraints, and foster a culture that prioritizes patient-centered care.

    Conclusion

    In conclusion, patient-centered care emerges as a pivotal model in healthcare, emphasizing personalized


    care that respects individual patient preferences and values. While the advantages of implementing this
    model on a global scale are evident in improving patient outcomes and satisfaction, overcoming barriers
    such as organizational rigidity, financial constraints, and resistance to change is essential for its successful
    implementation worldwide.
