| Summary: | This conceptual paper defines and describes pragmatic
person centred care as an enhanced and expanded
version of the construct of person centred care (PCC).
Pragmatic person centred care is defined as health care
that is respectful of, and responsive to the person’s
preferences, needs and values, while being reflective of
available resource, reserves, and restrictions, regulating
and balancing all aspects and facets of care in a rational,
realistic and renewable manner, so as to ensure optimal
relief and results.
Pragmatic person centred care is dependent upon four
‘pillars’: the person and their care givers, the public and
peers, the health care profession and their ecosystem, as
well as policymakers and planners. This comprehensive
description makes the practice of PCC acceptable,
practical and efficient. This concept should be integrated
in all health care services, including primary care.
