5. Teamwork: This involves members of the health service and health system working together to provide care to each patient to achieve the best patient outcomes.6. Environments: Environments should be designed to enable staff to work in a person-centred way.7. Inclusion: Family members, relatives, friends and partners of patients should also be included in the process of care and support, as this promotes mutual relationships between them as well as care outcomes. It is mentioned in McCance and McCormack (2016, p.) that McCormack and McCance first developed a theoretical framework for person-centered practice in 2006, then more advanced in 2010.

Person-centered processes: It focuses on providing care using a holistic approach, respecting the patient's values and beliefs, and working in partnership.4. Results: these are the results; patient well-being, patient satisfaction and creating a healing atmosphere.

And everyone involved in care should have rapid access (Lehos 2016). Patient experience is equally important for better clinical outcomes. But many health professionals are unaware of this. If the influences of person-centered care on patients were then studied, it would be of great help in improving patients' quality of life, health outcomes, improving patient counseling and support, patient satisfaction as well as professional satisfaction of health team members. Some patients shared their experiences as if they felt healthy when doctors and nurses talked to them as a person, and said that no one understood their bodies better than themselves, not even their doctors (Rasmussen , Jorgensen and Leyshon). 2014).
